✅ A Fresh Start Begins With the Right Move

When we get charges dismissed or evidence excluded, our clients get their futures back. And if you already carry a record, expungement may be the next step. Every case is different and results are never guaranteed, but a clearer path forward is always the goal.

We help clients across St. Louis, St. Charles, and Metro East Illinois. If you haven't hired a lawyer yet, your consultation is free.

On September 30, 2026, Tennessee attempted to carry out Christa P*ke’s death sentence. She survived.

That raised an extraordinary legal question: Can the state attempt to execute her again?

In the latest episode of Beyond the Headline, W. Scott Rose examines:

• Whether P*ke’s death sentence remains in effect
• Whether double jeopardy prevents another attempt
• What previous cases involving Willie Francis and Romell Broom tell us
• Whether Tennessee could use the same ex*****on method again
• Why P*ke’s competency may become the deciding issue

This video does not relitigate P*ke’s guilt or take a position on the death penalty. It focuses on the constitutional and legal questions created when an ex*****on attempt does not result in death.

⚖️ Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Q: If my record is expunged, do I get my gun rights back?

A: In many Missouri cases, expungement restores fi***rm rights. However, it isn't automatic for everyone because federal law can still apply to certain offenses. Since state and federal rules don't always match, it's worth reviewing your specific record before assuming your rights are fully restored.

What happens after a DWI arrest in Missouri?

One arrest can begin two separate legal proceedings: the criminal case and a separate driver’s-license case. Each follows its own process, and certain deadlines can begin shortly after the arrest.

In our newest video, W. Scott Rose explains:

• What may happen in the criminal case
• How the driver’s-license case works
• The difference between submitting and refusing a chemical sample
• Important 15-day and 30-day deadlines
• What may happen with an out-of-state license

⚖️ Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Q: How long do I have to wait before I can expunge my record?

A: It depends on the offense. Missouri sets waiting periods that run from when you complete your sentence, with longer waits for felonies than misdemeanors. The clock and the eligibility rules can be tricky, so a quick review of your specific record is the best way to know when you can file.

Questions about timing? Call Rose Legal Services.
