David Everett Mosley, Car Accidents Attorney in Jeffersonville, Indiana

Recently:: Jury aquits man who admitted escape from prison. CLARK COUNTY, Ind. — An Indiana man admitted to a prison escape, but a jury found him not guilty of the charge of felony escape. Rodney Miller was the subject of a manhunt in December after he got out of the Henryville Correctional Unit. “Escape is kind of like a no-brainer. It's ‘Is you is or is you ain't in jail?’ You know? And if you ain't you're guilty, right? That's what I thought,” defense attorney David Mosley said. When the court handed Mosley Miller’s case, he learned there was more to the story. Some facts were indisputable. There is video of Miller leaving the now-closed minimum security Henryville Correctional Unit in December. Miller was later found 90 miles away from the complex with his girlfriend. Miller said he escaped because he was afraid his girlfriend was going to abort their child. Mosley mounted a defense using a rarely cited Indiana law of a crime of duress. “I just thought this is absolutely crazy. He pulled it out of a hat.” Clark County Deputy Prosecutor Zynthia Arocena said. Arocena showed WLKY an interview in which she said Miller contradicted his claim that the escape was about his girlfriend. The jury deliberated for about 30 minutes. The verdict? Not guilty. He was being held on a felony theft charge. If he had been convicted, he faced four years in prison.
