NEWMARK AND BRISBOIS EARN DISMISSAL OF FIRST-DEGREE MURDER CHARGES

After two trials which resulted in hung juries, Eric Newmark and Jill Brisbois successfully convinced the trial judge to dismiss first-degree and second-degree murder charges against their client. First-degree murder carries a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole. The case was  re-charged and tried an unprecedented third time in Hennepin County, but the state did not seek first-degree charges in the third trial.
