Common Criminal Acts Committed in Dayton, Ohio

According to a recent report from the Dayton Daily News, the crime rate in Dayton has actually dropped a little in the past year. But, being that it is only currently a little over halfway through the year, the findings of crime statistics in the area are largely based on the first six months of 2022.

Statistics show that for that time period, the overall crime in Dayton dropped around 1% when compared to the period of January through June 2021. Compared to 2020, you can add another 1% to the dip in crime in the area. 

Property crime is one of the most frequently committed ones in Dayton, and it accounts for a little over 80% of all the crimes in the area. Experts say that larceny is the crime that’s mostly committed against property in Dayton and that there are close to 2,000 break-ins for every 100,000 locals.

How a Dayton Criminal Law Attorney Can Help Your Case

Your attorney will, of course, be your representation in court, but there are numerous other important tasks that they will be attending to in order to attain the best judgment for your case. For example, they will develop your defense theory by thoroughly analyzing the facts, such as your alibi, looking at the dependability of witnesses (if there are any), and determining overall how strong the prosecution’s case is against you. 

There are also so many instances where an officer’s conduct needs to be inspected, and while your attorney is doing that, they will also investigate the details of the charges that were brought up against you. What this means is they will be looking for evidence/proof gaps, personally visit the crime scene, and find numerous other avenues of proving your innocence.
