Chris Clark, a partner at Patton
& Pittman, successfully argued for a substantial bond reduction in one of Clarksville ’s most
high-profile murder cases last week. Clark represents a mother who has been charged, along
with her husband, with the murder of her young child. During Clark ’s
cross-examination, the lead detective admitted to the court while under oath
that she did not believe that the mother had caused the injuries that lead to
the child’s death. She further testified
that there were no witnesses or direct proof that the mother had caused any of
the unfortunate injuries. The court
immediately lowered the quarter-of-a-million dollar bond to $25,000.
