Q: I’m a witness my boyfriend was falsely accused of DV. His child’s mother has old pics of bruises. How do we fight that?
The child’s mother is actually trying to retaliate at the fact that my boyfriend and I have been together and we have a baby on the way. How Can I prove she is lying with these mysterious pics of bruises? How Can I prove she is a liar? So far I have text messages that she verbally abuses him, and she threatened him with a protective order and throwing him in jail over text because she was mad a couple weeks ago. I saw what happens the night she accused him, but she didn’t know I was there. She attacked him but she has a twisted story with pics of bruises. Now he is incarcerated and his court appointed attorney is hardly communicating with us. How Can I prepare myself to fight this and prove she is lying?
A: The only alternative you have, if his court appointed attorney won’t listen to you, is to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney. Some will accept payment plans. Wishing you the best.
