Boston Globe Kibuuka Dance

"Newton District Court Judge Dyanne J. Klein on Tuesday reaffirmed her earlier decision to dismiss charges of assault and battery on a police officer filed against Justin Kibuuka, 19, of Watertown, Kibuuka’s lawyers said. Kibuuka had been charged after he was arrested for suspicion of drug dealing at a carnival in Newton in July. His lawyers, John Swomley and Devon Hincapie, successfully challenged the constitutionality of Kibuuka’s arrest, leading to Klein’s excluding all evidence against Kibuuka and to the dismissal of the charges in a ruling dated Feb. 19. No drugs were found on Kibuuka, who denied committing an assault."
