What to do if my boyfriend was arrested for domestic and is up against violation of his probation but my statement against him was untrue?
My statement to the police is false and I went to them to drop my statement or change it. They said no. Who can I contact to let them know my statement is false? His probation officer or prosecutor? Please help me. This is the father of my child and none of this should have happened. He never laid a hand on me, my crazy ex called the police to set him up. I know it’s legal to drop my statement. Why would the officer say no?
