Norteño Gang Wiretap Case Dismissed in Contra Costa County

Our firm represented one of nearly two dozen men arrested in Contra Costa County in the “Omega Red” wiretap operation, targeted at bringing down an alleged Norteño gang conspiracy to commit a variety of crimes in Eastern Contra Costa County. After nearly nine months of relentless advocacy, the court granted Emily Dahm’s motion to dismiss the case and her client was finally set free. Numerous other defendants in the same case pled guilty and agreed to lengthy prison terms but our client walked away with no prison time and no conviction.
