Death and Injury Investigations – AFI-LLC – June 2023 5 of 6
Featured Case Study: False Reports of Victim to Attorney (Legal Investigation)
Our agency was retained by an attorney to review the official records, reports and photographs of a reported student
peer-to-peer sex assault at high school. Filed in federal court, allegations included teacher witnessed bullying, forced
rape, failure to report by school authorities, failure to investigate by law enforcement, and victim self-reported inability
to get pregnant due to sustained injuries from rape.
The investigation was hampered due to the successful petitioning of the school district to restrict access of law
enforcement records of the official investigation. Within the witness contacts made, the assigned School Resource
Officer agreed to speak with us. His interview fully contradicted the allegations of the victim and brought unreported
and underreported facts to our attention. Following this disclosure, legal counsel prohibited further contact with the
SRO, any school personnel and law enforcement officers.
What were the circumstances? What was the evidence? What were the findings?

“PI, Attorney and Client Relationship Ethics”

relationship, even professional licensure can be disciplined for a violation. It is important all parties in the relationship
