ATTORNEY VICTOR KNAPP WINS ACQUITTAL FOR BROOKLYN RAPPER

Queens criminal defense attorney successfully defends rapper Jerms Black

Kew Gardens, NY (prHWY.com) May 17, 2012 - New York - For the past 30 years, Queens criminal defense attorney Victor Knapp has been fighting for clients from all walks of life--judicial officers, lawyers, medical providers, corporate executives, teachers, club owners--even an up-and-coming rapper from Brooklyn.

Mr. Knapp successfully defended rapper Jerms Black, also known as Jeremy Naughton, who was accused of strong-arming a potential customer and stealing money from him. Mr. Knapp won an acquittal for Mr. Black, basing his defense upon the plight and struggles of a rap artist attempting to promote his own music career by "hustling" and street sales. Speaking about his prior criminal history on the PRLOG website, Mr. Black says, "I was about getting money however possible; money was my motivation. I never wanted to promote the violence, but in some situations it was necessary. Selling drugs was a day-to-day hustle, but my hands were on everything."

While awaiting trial in jail, Mr. Black vowed that if he was acquitted and given a second chance, he would change his life and dedicate himself to music. Mr. Black got that second chance due to the efforts of his defense attorney Victor Knapp, whose trial strategy encompassed thorough investigation, an effective defense plan, and successful delivery throughout each stage of the trial--jury selection, opening statements, cross-examination, presentation of defense case, and summations. Thanks to Victor Knapp, Jerms Black is able to keep his vow.

Achieving the best outcome possible for all his clients is Victor Knapp's goal. He encourages clients never to think that their case is hopeless; numerous criminal defense strategies can be used to have a case dismissed or the consequences reduced.
