			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As stated in a previous blog a woman in Valley Village was brutally murdered in her home just before her wedding. Her fiance chased the <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Murder.html" target="_blank">killer</a> down the street and returned to the home they shared to find it ablaze. The body of his wife to be was found inside by emergencies workers.</p>
<p>The city of Los Angeles is now offering a reward of $50,000 for <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Spousal-Abuse.html" target="_blank">information</a> leading to the capture of the man responsible.<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/137120384.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2360" title="137120384" src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/137120384-192x300.jpg" alt="" width="192" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Pictures have been released of the sketch done from witnesses descriptions of the killer.</p>
<p>Adam Culvey, the fiance of the deseased Chere Osmanhodzic, is <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Sex-Crimes.html" target="_blank">distraught</a> and any help or lead in the case is greatly anticipated.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are going to leave no stone unturned,&#8221; said Los Angeles Police Department Capt.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Charges in &#8217;sexting&#8217; cases are sweeping across the nation and several states are trying to figure out exactly how to prosecute these <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Internet-Crimes.html" target="_blank">criminals</a>.</p>
<p>The problem is that men are found with pictures of naked or barely clothed underage girls on cell phones. Normally those men would be charged with &#8216;possession of child pornography&#8217; as well as other serious felony charges. However, if convicted the defendants would not only have a felony record for the rest of their lives, they would also have to register as <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Sex-Crimes.html" target="_blank">sex offenders</a>.<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/photo_1013_20060206.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2322" title="Cell phone" src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/photo_1013_20060206-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>Although it&#8217;s a serious problem, the difference in juvenile girls taking and sending out pictures of their own bodies to individuals cell phones and the other ways that child porn is normally obtained and distributed is vast.</p>
<p>California is not the only state struggling with a new crime that law books have not caught up with yet. <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Resource-Links.html" target="_blank">New laws</a> will likely be written to cover the dangerous and damaging &#8217;sexting&#8217;.</p>
<p>Los Angeles Defense Attorney Robert Michael <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Why-Robert-Helfend.html" target="_blank">Helfend</a> is ready to take on cases like these. No one believes it is right to lump together a 25 year old &#8216;man&#8217; with pictures of a high school girl on his phone in the same category as rapist and pedophiles. It&#8217;s simply wrong.</p>
<p>However, if  those men are convicted and forced to register as sex offenders that is exactly what the public will think. Contact the law offices of Ventura County Defense Attorney Robert Helfend to see that he will put together a logical and aggressive defense plan that will keep your name off of the sex registry. He will fight for your charges to be dropped altogether or at the very least, fit the <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/ID-Theft.html" target="_blank">crime</a>.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[He was shot by a 57 year old women who, after hearing footsteps on her roof she went outside and confronted Brook at gun point as he jumped down from her roof.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Justified? <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/TOCPracticeAreaDescriptions.html" target="_blank">Police</a> in LA are asking for  eyewitness’ to come forward to shed some light on the fatal shooting of a man by the name of Roosevelt Brook.</div>
<div></div>
<div>He was shot by a 57 year old women who, after hearing <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Robbery-Theft.html" target="_blank">footsteps</a> on her roof she went outside and confronted Brook at gun point as he jumped down from her roof.  Apparently the conversation didn&#8217;t go well because she ended up shooting him.<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/helfend1229.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-252" title="Thief Face Man Sinister" src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/helfend1229-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></div>
<div></div>
<div>When police arrived they found  Brook dead in the women’s driveway.  An initial investigation has revealed that Brook and another man had committed an assault and were trying to flee. Further investigation is needed to decide if the <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Grand-Theft.html" target="_blank">shooting</a> was justified or not.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Los Angeles Defense Attorney Robert Michael Helfend could help in this case. If investigators rule that the shooting was unnecessary and therefore begin the process of filing <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Sex-Crimes.html" target="_blank">charges</a>, the woman accused will need an excellent attorney. If you or anyone you love is currently or finds themselves in this type of situation, call Ventura County Defense Attorney Robert Helfend.</div>
<div></div>
<div>&#8220;If you have been charged with a felony or misdemeanor crime in Los Angeles, you need results, not promises. Yes, I have helped people get their charges dropped or significantly reduced. But I won&#8217;t promise I can do it for your particular charges. I have even helped people get acquitted in a court trial that could have gone either way with the jury. But I won&#8217;t promise you the same thing. However, I will promise to apply all of my criminal defense experience, education, and reputation for integrity to help you get the best possible outcome for your charges. When you hire me, you will have a lawyer on your side who believes in doing everything possible to protect your future, even if that means not telling you exactly what you want to hear.&#8221; <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Federal-Crimes.html" target="_blank">Robert Helfend</a></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Internet-Crimes.html" target="_blank">Life</a> in prison does not seem to be any cause for worry to deters this bank robber, could it be because ,statistically ,that could be a five year sentence?<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/photo_10162_20090419.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2348" title="Money" src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/photo_10162_20090419-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></div>
<div></div>
<div>The FBI has named a bank robber currently on a crime spree in San Diego, the Geazer bandit. They say he looks to be in his late seventies.</div>
<div>Although he has become quite the media “hero” the <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Federal-Crimes.html" target="_blank">FBI</a> warns that he is armed and dangerous. He has robbed 11 banks at gun point, with his oxygen tank and mask slung over his sholuder.</div>
<div></div>
<div>There is much speculation as to his motive. Could it be anger at the banking system for the state of the economy, thirst for excitement in his later years? Maybe it was even on his bucket list but whatever the motive at some point his reign of “terror” will end and he will be <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Contact.html" target="_blank">seeking</a> the aid of a good lawyer, and possibly a screen play writer.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Los Angeles Defense <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/index.html" target="_blank">Attorney</a> Robert Michael Helfend could help in this case. He will meet with anyone charged with a crime for a free initial consultation and outline an aggresive defense plan regardless of crime or age.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Understanding that there is no such thing as an open and shut case, Ventura County Defense Attorney Robert Helfend will personally fight for the rights of every single client. Don&#8217;t wonder about the intentions or attentions of your lawyer, hire <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Why-Robert-Helfend.html" target="_blank">Robert Helfend</a> and know you are in good hands.</div>

		<description><![CDATA[Like the husband of Monica Beresford-Redman, a Los Angeles man wanted in suspicion of responsibility for her death, many think that they can get lost in Mexico.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The growing trend to &#8216;run for the border&#8217; is nothing new. <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Conspiracy-Distribute-Controlled-Substance.html" target="_blank">Fugitives</a> in the states, especially California, are running to Mexico to escape prosecution here. However, Mexican authorities are starting to focus on these criminals and make a concentrated effort to get the dangerous people back to the US to face thier charges.<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/photo_8161_20081203.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2344" title="Old Exterior Walls Mexican " src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/photo_8161_20081203-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>Just like the husband of Monica Beresford-Redman, a Los Angeles man wanted in suspicion of responsibility for her <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Murder.html" target="_blank">death</a>, many think that they can get lost in the vastness of Mexico itself and that the chaotic crime climate will aid in hiding them.</p>
<p>Recently though Mexican officials have created a task force specifically for dealing with these would be runaways. They are being dubbed &#8216;Fugitive Hunting Squads&#8217; and this year they have <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Search-Seizure.html" target="_blank">returned</a> approximatly 299 men and women to answer for their crimes. This is more than triple the number of people sent back over the border in 2003.</p>
<p>Both Mexican officials and US law enforcement agencies are extremely happy with the progress thus far.</p>
<p>Once you are sent across and arrested, <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Contact.html" target="_blank">contact</a> the law offices of Los Angeles Defense Attorney Robert Michael Helfend:</p>
<p>&#8220;At the criminal defense law office of Robert Michael Helfend, Attorney at Law, I don&#8217;t believe that having a prior felony conviction or being a repeat offender means that you are worthless and deserve a lifetime behind bars. I am criminal defense lawyer Robert Helfend. After more than twenty years of practice, I have seen too many good people face serious incarceration that would destroy their lives and families. I am recognized throughout Los Angeles and Southern California for my hard work and tough defense tactics to help my clients avoid a conviction that carries a three strike penalty. Whether my clients are facing their first felony conviction, or their third, I approach every three-strike felony case with an understanding of how important it is to my client.&#8221; &#8211; <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Three-Strikes-Law.html" target="_blank">Robert Helfend</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This past week in Los Angeles a man left his home to go to store leaving his fiance at home, when he returned his <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Murder.html" target="_blank">nightmare</a> began.<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Fire.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1318" title="Fire" src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Fire-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>Adam Culvey came home to find a man in his home, he argued and struggled with the 20 something Latino man who ended up getting out of the house. Mr. Culvey chased him down the street and when he lost the <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Robbery-Theft.html" target="_blank">perpetrator</a> Adam went back to his house only to find it ablaze.</p>
<p>Authorities found his fiance&#8217;s burned body inside. Her cause of death is still being determined. Police do not think that Culvey is <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Spousal-Abuse.html" target="_blank">involved</a> in the crime and are not currently looking at him as a suspect.</p>
<p>The man who ran from the home is described as a latin man in his twenties around 5 foot 8 inches tall.</p>
<p>Anyone facing charges of any kind, especially murder, should contact the law offices of Los Angeles Defense Attorney Robert Michael Helfend. He will make an aggressive defense plan in an effort to fight these charges.</p>
<p>&#8216;My reputation for <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Why-Robert-Helfend.html" target="_blank">integrity</a> among prosecutors and judges is extremely important. When we file a motion to suppress evidence, it is taken seriously. When we argue for a reduced charge based on legal and personal grounds, our arguments will be respected. If your case goes to court for trial, I promise that the judge and jury will clearly understand how serious we are about an acquittal of the charges.</p>
<p>There are many criminal law attorneys in Los Angeles. Some will promise you the world. I won&#8217;t. I will promise to work hard and work directly with you throughout your entire defense process.&#8221; &#8211; <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Contact.html" target="_blank">Robert Helfend</a></p>

With over two decades of experience in the Los Angeles area he knows and will use all sorts of legal tactics in an attempt to get you the <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/TOCCaseHistories.html" target="_blank">outcome</a> you desire.</p>
<p>Robert Helfend knows that lawyers can get a bad rap and seeks to make a better name for himself and his profession.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am part of a profession that has become overcrowded with marginally successful <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Why-Robert-Helfend.html" target="_blank">attorneys</a>, which often leads to other lawyers making promises about guaranteed acquittals and getting clients off. Over the past twenty years, my clients have occasionally informed me of what other lawyers promised. Some of the stories I have heard are incredible and an embarrassment to my profession.&#8221; &#8211; Robert Helfend</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Apparently the A list actors such as Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton aren&#8217;t the only ones serving tiny portions of their sentences. Due to overcrowding felons and &#8216;non-violent&#8217; <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Grand-Theft.html" target="_blank">criminals</a>, especially females, are spending about a tenth of the time they are originally told they will spend actually behind bars.<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/photo_505_20051113.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2122" title="City House" src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/photo_505_20051113-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>Recently one of the members of the &#8216;bling ring&#8217;, a group of young people accused of robbing the homes of stars such as Orlando Bloom, was released from prison after less than a month.</p>
<p>Calabasas resident Alexis Neiers was told she would spend 6 months in <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Robbery-Theft.html" target="_blank">prison</a> when she pled no contest to the charges of robbery. Now that she is out she says that she is a changed woman.</p>
<p>“I’ve had time to reflect on my life and the choices that led me to this <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Conspiracy-Distribute-Controlled-Substance.html" target="_blank">experience</a>, left alone in my cell 23 hours a day and having everything stripped away but the bare essentials,&#8221; Neiers said in a statement. &#8220;I did a lot of soul-searching. I feel very humbled and see my life in a way that I have come to be very grateful for and I am also grateful to everyone who has helped and supported me through this.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Montreal man is getting quite the deal in a Los Angeles court this week. John Bellini was due to appear in a California <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Resource-Links.html" target="_blank">court of law</a> to enter his plea and<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Money.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1315" title="Money" src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Money-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a> begin the trail for charges associated with a fraudulent telemarketing ring which targeting the elderly. Instead he appeared before a federal court early and pleaded guilty to one charge of wire fraud.</p>
<p>Bellini was allegedly the ring leader of the telemarketing <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Conspiracy-Distribute-Controlled-Substance.html" target="_blank">group</a> and was facing numerous charges. He will be sentenced in his much smaller case, presumably a plea bargain for information on other members of the group, on November first.</p>
<p>Apparently this is considered a great victory for those who have been working hard to fight telephone fraud crime.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our feeling is that he greatly facilitated the crime. But the telemarketers who actually spoke on the phone with the elderly vulnerable victims and took their money are in some sense equally or more <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Contact.html" target="_blank">culpable</a>,&#8221; said Assistant United States Attorney Ellyn Lindsay, the prosecutor in the case. &#8220;This is the result of great co-operation between Canadian and U.S. law enforcement who have been battling this kind of crime.&#8221;</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Allegedly Lohan and fiancé, Kate Major, got in a fight because she didn't answer her phone. The fight escalated and now she says that he threatened to kill her.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Lohan family seems to attract unwanted attention by law <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/index.html" target="_blank">officials</a>. This week Lindsay has been all over the news for her many antics in the courtroom and her eventual surrender to jail. However, her father, Michael Lohan is now also facing charges of his own.<a href="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/photo_1013_20060206.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2322" title="Cell phone" src="http://blog.roberthelfend.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/photo_1013_20060206-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>Allegedly Michael Lohan and his fiancé, 27 year old Kate Major, got in a fight because she didn&#8217;t answer her cell phone. The fight escalated and now the model is saying that he threatened to <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Murder.html" target="_blank">kill</a> her.</p>
<p>&#8220;My fiance, Michael Lohan, started a verbal argument with me because I didn&#8217;t answer my cell phone when he called,&#8221; Major&#8217;s statement said. &#8220;Then he flipped the sofa chair over while I was sitting in it causing me to <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/PracticeAreas/Spousal-Abuse.html" target="_blank">bump</a> my head into the wall and my body to the floor.&#8221; Major goes on to say that he stated he would go back to jail soon due to the fact he was going to kill her.</p>
<p>If you are facing charges of spousal abuse and or domestic violence you must realize the importance of a lawyer who truly knows what he is doing. Los Angeles Defense Attorney Robert Michael <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/Why-Robert-Helfend.html" target="_blank">Helfend</a> has seen it all in his two decades of experience and will take your case and handle it with the utmost respect.</p>
<p>No one knows better than Ventura County Defense Attorney Robert Michael Helfend what it is like to look into the eyes of a client and feel the need to fight for their rights. He won&#8217;t promise you the world, but he&#8217;ll <a href="http://www.roberthelfend.com/CM/Custom/TOCCaseHistories.html" target="_blank">personally</a> stand beside you while you both work to find a way to keep you in it.</p>
