All charges against Mejias dismissed

Mr. Mejias added, “I am grateful the Judge and the Nassau County District Attorney’s office moved to dismiss all the charges and found that the accusations against me were without merit. I experienced a situation that was stunning, heartbreaking and that sadly could happen to anyone.”
