I work with many clients who are charged with attempting to bring weapons past security at DTW Airport. Sometimes its a loaded weapon, someones a knife or another "dangerous weapon". This is a scary moment being charged with this time of crime, and many people believe it would be a federal charge.
These cases are actually handled at the 34th Romulus District Court with Judge Parrot, Oakland and Green. There is also a "special prosecutor" for all DTW Airport cases. These matters are taken very seriously and could result in a criminal charge and significant jail time.
The way I view these cases is unique; I've never had a client purposely bring a weapon through security at the airport; nobody had a bad intention, but this a "strict liability crime" meaning it doesn't matter if you left something in your bag or purposely put it there - it's still the same criminal charge. In order to overcome that failure to distinguish, we put a number of proactive steps into place on day one. Your word alone will not mean much to the prosecutor since intent does not matter, so we put actions into place.
You've heard it before - actions speak louder than words, and it applies at the 34th District Court on dangerous weapon charges at Detroit Metro Airport. My unique proactive program allows the client to change the perception of their case on day one, and helps improves their standing as we prepare to go to court. We need to show the prosecutor and judge that you had a lapse in responsibility for not checking your belongings; it doesn't make you a bad person or a criminal, but we need to show the REAL YOU.
The first and only impression you've provided is you were trying to board an airplane with a gun or dangerous weapon - you do NOT want that on your record. It's the goal of any case like this to change the perception of your case, and find a happy medium which creates a path to avoid jail, and the possibly of avoiding a criminal record.
