Child Custody and Visitation
Family consequences including loss of custody and visitation. A conviction for domestic violence can weaken your custody and visitation rights and eligibility to adopt or become a foster parent;
Adoption
Child Abuse
When a person witnesses traumatic or stressful events, a delayed response can result. Experiencing or confronting traumatic events can result in feelings or fear helplessness or terror. The military, police officers, and first responders are all subject to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in their daily jobs. Ordinary people who experience or confront stressful events such as survivors of hurricanes, violence, child abuse, and any type of traumatic loss can suffer recurrent, involuntary, intrusive memories of the event. Distressing dreams can haunt the victim. Flashbacks, hallucinations and other extreme dissociative reactions can continue to haunt the victim long after their traumatic origins cease. PTSD Survivors

Criminal Defense
Rufus Alldredge is a Mississippi federal criminal defense attorney helping people charged with federal crimes. Whether you or your loved one are charged with a federal offense, or you are being investigated, an experienced criminal defense attorney can advise you and advocate aggressively on your behalf.
DUI/DWI
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) criminal and DUI defense clients deserve respect and equal protection under the law. Equal protection is a constitutional right. Often times, you will see “Lady Justice” pictured with a blindfold. This is because the eyes of the law see all people equally, including LGBT persons, and the law must protect the rights of LGBT persons. Our law firm takes the responsibility of zealous representation for LGBT clients very seriously.
Traffic Violations
Many federal misdemeanors include petty offenses, consisting of class B and class C Misdemeanors and infractions. When a person is charged with a federal petty offense, or a traffic ticket, he is usually given a citation called a “Violation Report” that resembles a traffic ticket. If appearance is mandatory, the accused must appear in court. If appearance is optional, the defendant can mail in a payment. Federal misdemeanors are filed and cleared through the Central Violations Bureau (CVB). CVB contact information will be listed on the violation report.
Sex Crimes
The Internet is the Playground and the Crime Scene of the Twenty-First Century. Child Pornography can Appear Without the Your Knowledge
Fraud
False pretense has evolved to include protections for ATM machines, credit cards and checks. Thus anyone who defrauds a cardholder, issuer, bank, ATM machine, or merchant by use of a fraudulent credit or debit card, can be charged with a felony. Credit Card Fraud
Robbery
Armed robbery in Mississippi consists of exhibiting a deadly weapon and putting the victim in fear. The elements of armed robbery are...
Burglary
Burglary of a dwelling is the of breaking and entering the dwelling house of another, with intent to commit a crime. The “break and enter” element does not require forcible entry. Illegal entry or trespass through an open door or window meets this requirement. By law, a burglary indictment must state which particular crime was attempted or committed. While most burglaries involve intent to steal, that is not always the case. However, the elements of the intended crime do not need to be stated. Further, an approximate date or range of dates is sufficient as long as it notifies the defendant of what is being charged.
White Collar Crimes
Interstate Trafficking in Aid of Racketeering (ITAR): A charge under ITAR can be a great alternative charge to some other white collar crimes. This provision is found in 18 U.S.C. §§ 1952(a)(1)(A). This law says, “Whoever travels in interstate or foreign commerce or uses the mail or any facility in interstate or foreign commerce, with intent to...distribute the proceeds of any unlawful activity...and therefore performs [that act] shall be fined...imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.” In other words, the worst possible sentence for this offense is five years imprisonment and a fine. This is substantially better than some of the potential outcomes for other white collar charges under the U.S. Code. Depending on the facts of your case, we may be able to negotiate a prosecution under this relatively less harsh provision.
Theft
Misdemeanors
The Law Office of Rufus Alldredge defends individuals charged with serious felony charges, misdemeanors and Driving Under the Influence.
Embezzlement
Public officers and employees, as well as bank trustees, and other persons of public trust have a special and higher duty to the public they serve. Accordingly, if a public officer, employee, or trustee steals trust money the penalty can be severe. There is no statute of limitations on embezzlement prosecutions. False Pretense
Drug Crimes
Pre-trial Diversion is administered by the District Attorney’s Office and approved by the Circuit Court. While the various District Attorney/Circuit Court districts have their own rules for entry into the Pre-trial Diversion program, the defendant must be a first offender meaning no prior felony convictions. The charge must be nonviolent. Drug possession is an acceptable charge. Charges involving drug sales or possession of controlled substance with intent to distribute do not qualify.
Assault
Whenever an incendiary fire causes serious injury to occupants, fire fighters, law enforcement personnel, police or other emergency workers, the defendant can be charged with felony aggravated assault. There is no statute of limitations for prosecution of arson.
Murder
For thousands of years governments have beaten confessions out of their citizens. The United States Constitution was written to correct earlier abuses. However, it was not until 1936 that the United States Supreme Court told police to stop using torture to obtain confessions. Ed Brown was charged with murder in Mississippi. He denied responsibility so the police strung him up from a tree and hung him by the neck. Then they whipped a confession out of him. He was convicted at trial using that confession. The United States Supreme Court reversed Brown’s conviction because his confession was not voluntary.
Probation Violation
A defendant with a prior felony conviction is not eligible for probation. Accordingly, PRS is available only after release from incarceration. The law does not specify any particular time of incarceration before the defendant is eligible for Post Release Supervision. Sentencing remains within the discretion of the court. The maximum supervised post release term is five years, with the remainder being unsupervised. The terms and conditions of Post Release Supervision are the same as for probation. Violations of PRS are handled like probation violations. House Arrest - Intensive Supervision Program
Identity Theft
In Mississippi, it is a felony to use a computer, internet or electronic means to defraud, obtain money, property or services by fraudulent conduct or representation. It is also a felony to fraudulently alter, delete or insert programs. Viruses and hacks that damage computer software or hardware is also a felony. Identity Theft
Arson
Arson is a serious felony charge. Arson is defined as intentional burning of a building. A person who aids, abets, encourages or acts as an accessory before the fact (a helper) can also be convicted of arson. Frequently, arson involves the use of accelerants. An accelerant is a substance that accelerates the spread of a fire. Examples include gasoline and flammable solvents. Arson can also involve combustible material rather liquid accelerants. A person who procures accelerants or helps someone else set the fire can be convicted of arson. First degree arson means intentionally burning a dwelling house whether occupied or vacant, or its out buildings such as a garage or shed. Burning a school building is also first degree arson. The willful, malicious burning or aiding or encouraging someone to burn a church, temple, synagogue or other place of worship can also be charged as first degree arson.
Shoplifting
Sometimes professionals are falsely charged with something they did not do. Sometimes the allegations do not seem credible or serious. Sometimes the professional engages in an out-of-character shoplifting incident or gets stopped driving home after having a few drinks. The police may be called to the home and charge the professional with domestic violence. If your regulatory or licensing board considers the offense an ethical violation or misconduct, your professional license could be in jeopardy. Allegations of wrongdoing can result in denials of professional licenses, suspensions, limitations on practice or other sanctions including remedial measures.
Restraining Order
Mississippi law broadly defines personal relationships subject to the domestic violence law and restraining orders. Domestic violence victims include...
Forgery
The DEA and Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics (MBN) actively monitor dispensing and possession of prescription drugs. “Doctor Shopping,” prescription forgery and possession of non-prescribed medication can result in an arrest and leave a permanent blemish on your criminal record, your job, and your future. Government sting operations based on undercover investigations and sophisticated surveillance by DEA and MBN investigators can lead to an arrest. We have represented clients charged in state and federal court “Pill Mill” prosecutions, drug conspiracies and other controlled substance charges.
Money Laundering
White Collar Crimes: This category includes certain types of fraud, embezzlement, bank fraud, bank embezzlement, money laundering, conspiracy to commit fraud, identity theft, use of unauthorized devices, unauthorized use of personal identifying information (PII), hacking credit card and bank data, tax evasion, public corruption, and other offenses. How Federal Crimes are Different
Manslaughter
Armed robbery is a violent felony. It is among the most serious crimes in Mississippi. Armed robbery can carry a stiffer sentence than manslaughter, aggravated DUI causing death, drug trafficking, shootings, and some forms of murder. Armed robbery can carry up to life in prison, served day-for-day, without parole. Elements of Armed Robbery in Mississippi
Internet Crimes
Federal Computer Crimes: This can include hacking, internet fraud, credit card fraud, access device fraud, cyber crime, and piracy.
Prostitution
Occasionally a night of entertainment and alcohol ends with being arrested for public drunk or disturbing the peace. Often it is difficult to tell the difference between excited loud enthusiasm or drunk and disorderly conduct. This happens in an atmosphere where Mississippi casinos encourage patrons to indulge their passions in the 24 hour excitement of a casino. Casino security is authorized to make citizens arrests if they believe the patron’s conduct is disruptive or violates Mississippi law. Typically casino security will call the local police department who can file more charges such as resisting arrest. Casino visitors leaving after a late night can be charged with open container violations or even driving under the influence. Letting the good times roll with excessive alcohol use can lead to poor judgement resulting in being charged with solicitation, prostitution, or possession of controlled substance. Although marijuana may be legal in some states, it is illegal to possess or use marijuana in Mississippi. A night of escape and harmless fun can end in a nightmare of arrest and legal problems.

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
I was formerly a partner in an established Mississippi Gulf Coast corporate law firm. The call of the court room led me to the District Attorney’s office for the Second Circuit Court District where I served as an Assistant District Attorney, principally in Harrison County. As a felony prosecutor, I handled high profile cases of every type including drugs, crimes of violence against children and the elderly, property crimes, white collar crimes and Grand Jury investigations. I prosecuted asset seizures and forfeitures for Harrison, Hancock and Stone Counties.
