A: You should privately consult with a criminal lawyer before making any statements about make false allegations as your are exposing yourself to criminal charges of filing a false police report. Stop making incriminating statements on a public website like Justia. Call a few local law firms to review options.

A: Are you willing to accept criminal charges against yourself? The other attorney is on point. Unless you're wiling accept criminal charges, stop chatting online and seek a local attorney for a consult. Do not divulge anymore facts online. DA's and cops troll these sites. Wouldn't you, especially if the person whom you arrested tells you exactly what you're saying here?
