Understanding Robbery Charges Under Massachusetts Law

Robbery is defined as the taking of property from another person through force, intimidation, or threats. Unlike theft or larceny, robbery involves direct confrontation with the alleged victim, which makes the charge significantly more severe.

Below are the main robbery-related offenses under Massachusetts law:

1. Armed Robbery (M.G.L. c. 265, § 17)

Involves the use of a weapon or dangerous object while taking property from another person.
Penalties may include:

Up to life in prison
Mandatory minimum sentence of 5 years for a first offense

2. Unarmed Robbery (M.G.L. c. 265, § 19)

Involves force or intimidation without the use of a weapon.
Penalties may include:

Up to life in prison
Possible probation for first-time offenders

3. Home Invasion (M.G.L. c. 265, § 18)

Entering a residence with intent to commit robbery or a felony.
Penalties may include:

Mandatory minimum of 10 years in state prison

4. Carjacking (M.G.L. c. 265, § 21)

Taking a vehicle from another person through force or intimidation.
Penalties may include:

Up to 15 years in prison
Up to 20 years if a dangerous weapon is used

Penalties for a Robbery Conviction in Massachusetts

A robbery conviction can result in:

Lengthy prison sentences (including mandatory minimums)
Substantial fines and restitution
Probation and long-term court supervision
A permanent criminal record
Loss of employment and professional opportunities
Immigration consequences for non-U.S. citizens
Damage to reputation and family relationships

Because robbery is prosecuted as a violent felony, judges and prosecutors pursue these cases aggressively. You need equally aggressive legal defense.

Common Legal Defenses Me and My Team Use in Robbery Cases

Every robbery charge is unique, and the right defense strategy depends on the facts of your case. Me and my team here at The Law Offices of Kensley Barrett often challenge robbery charges using defenses such as:

Mistaken Identity

Robbery cases often rely on eyewitness testimony that may be unreliable or inaccurate.

Lack of Force or Intimidation

If the prosecution cannot prove force or threats, the charge may be reduced to a lesser offense.

False Accusations

We investigate the credibility, motives, and background of individuals making allegations.

Insufficient Evidence

Robbery cases often fall apart due to weak or circumstantial evidence.

Violation of Constitutional Rights

If police conducted an unlawful search, seizure, interrogation, or identification procedure, critical evidence may be excluded.
