Grand Jury Returns No Bill After Whalen Law Office Demonstrates Contradictions in Stalking Allegation

Whalen Law Office is pleased to announce that a Collin County Grand Jury has returned a No Bill in a felony Stalking case handled by James P. Whalen, Ryne T. Sandel, and Attorney Grace Tucker.

Case Background

Our client was accused of felony Stalking by his estranged spouse during an ongoing divorce proceeding. As with many cases that arise in the midst of family conflict, the allegations involved emotionally charged claims and a rapidly evolving timeline.

Presentation to the Grand Jury

In preparation for the Grand Jury submission, Attorney Grace Tucker prepared a detailed packet analyzing the allegations, the timeline, and the supporting documentation. The materials highlighted several key inconsistencies, including:

• A discrepancy between the date of the alleged unlawful entry reported to police and the date listed in the complainant’s sworn civil affidavit
• A lack of any reported threats in the affidavit, despite allegations of multiple threats made to law enforcement
• No evidence supporting claims of surveillance, tracking, or repeated harassment
• Exhibits filed in related civil proceedings that did not align with the version of events reported to police

These inconsistencies raised substantial questions about the reliability and credibility of the accusations.

Outcome

After reviewing the packet and the evidence as a whole, the Grand Jury declined to indict and issued a No Bill, ending the criminal case.

Our Commitment

False or exaggerated criminal allegations—particularly those stemming from emotionally difficult personal situations—can have life-altering consequences. Our team is committed to ensuring that every client’s story is fully heard and that all evidence is presented clearly and accurately.

We are proud of the work our attorneys have done and grateful that our client can now move forward without the burden of a criminal charge.
