My wife called police and got me arrested. She gave a statement that I beat her which is not true. But now police is taking her statement as true as GOD. And I am charged. Now in this world of women, what options do I have on my first court date ????
Guilty or not??????not means about 1-2 years of hassle and lot of money into lawyer's pocket. I do not have much money either.
what options do i have ???? :confused:
Any suggestions ????

Your story is an all too common one, I'm afraid. Divorce is difficult enough without one partner making false accusations to gain an unfair advantage.
I don't have any answers for you, but hang in there....more members will see your post during the coming week and hopefully will have some concrete advice for you

Your options depend on what evidence was documented when the police arrived on the scene. if she was photographed with visible marks on her person, the case is more difficult. i agree with Finz that unfortunately this is way too common. it makes us women who are abused look like we are just starving for attention or full of vengance.If you did nothing wrong and there is no evidence supporting her claim it will come out in court. I personally would not plead guilty to any charge i didn't commit.

Anyone can make a claim of abuse, proving it is a different matter. The cops won't generally make an arrest unless they have something leading them to believe it actually occurred. Did she have bruises or other marks? If there were no bruises listed in the police report and you have no prior record and no reports have been made from her in the past, she won't stand a chance of getting it to stick. However, if there were bruises and/or past reports and records, you need to think harder about the hassle of the lawyer.

Women like this need to serve jail time

I'd been with my husband for 15yrs when he assaulted me 2 months ago for the first time. The fear I felt then (& now)was there for all to see, the police were very good with me, and how a woman could "fake" that fear is beyond me.
I am disgusted at her behaviour and women like that make my blood boil. :mad: :mad:

The truth will out in court.
Liars generally tend to get caught out.
I too personally wouldn't plead guilty to something I didn't do.

If you have no proof and he is found innocent, the abuse charges are dismissed. And the false abuse claimaint needs to be jailed. Sorry.

I think you are aiming your reply to this subject at the wrong person.
Your reply to my comments insinuate that I am making a false claim of abuse.
I was commenting on the previous thread of a woman making false claims of abuse against her husband...she should be ashamed of herself.
I on the other hand have nothing to hide, nothing to lie about and nothing to be ashamed about.
My husband has actually admitted what he did to me and been arrested for it.
Any woman who has been through what I went through on that night, would not wish it on her worst enemy, so how a woman could lie about it is a terrible crime.

Was he convicted? If not, he's innocent.
