Tragic events like the death of the child evoke emotions like no other. When Noe Paez found himself arrested and charged with Intoxication Manslaughter after a tragic accident where a three-year old boy was killed, he turned to Sierra Tabone of Mayr Law, P.C. to defend himself in one of the most frightening moments of his life. The case attracted a large amount of attention in the small Southeast Texas community where the tragic accident occurred and, with emotions running high, there was tremendous pressure on local officials to send Paez to prison for the rest of his life.

Sierra Tabone, however, stood up to the pressure and worked diligently to investigate and gather as much evidence as possible in a situation where prosecutors refused to turn over any evidence prior to indictment. She discovered that, contrary to law enforcement officials’ belief, Paez was not legally intoxicated and further, that officials failed to conduct any further investigation to establish that he was impaired in any way. A thorough investigation of the accident scene further revealed poor lighting and multiple other circumstances that unfortunately created an atmosphere for the tragic outcome.

Sierra Tabone handled the matter professionally and with respect for all those involved while fighting zealously for her client. She prepared a presentation to the local grand jury to establish that, while the child’s death was a tragic accident, no crime had been committed by her client. The grand jury ultimately agreed and declined to return an indictment against the client for any criminal charges.
