Q: I am being charged with metals/falsifying information on application,form or affidavit.? What should I do.?
My brother was dating a woman that had a vehicle that the motor was blown. Asked me to look at it to see if I may be able to fix the car. I was the third person she asked to do this. The car had been sitting for 2 years already, motor blown, animals made nest inside of it , seats torn, bad tires. Told thesignm it would cost to much to fix. Was told scrap it. Her and my brother broke up shortly after. She got mad at the separation and filed breach of trust on him and I got drug into it b/c I signed for the scrap. The car was also 17 years old. She got the money for what she told me to do. I have an affidavit from a person that lived with her at this time of the transaction that I am being charged with that discredits her story. Any advice
