Talk to your attorney. They aren't going to expose the CI without a considerable fight of course. And it is permissible to rely on a CI's testimony.

The duty to disclose exculpatory evidence is on the prosecutor, not the police; it would be weird for a search warrant to have... View More

Perhaps one of the most common misconceptions, and hardest to convince clients of, is the fact that police reports are not evidence. At some point, if you go to trial, the prosecutor will need to have those individuals testify; your attorney might be able to ask them questions about the... View More

Your son needs to confirm his registration status, and should check his judgment of conviction to see what exactly he has. MSP just enforces what is court-ordered, so there might be a miscommunication or misunderstanding somewhere between what your son and the court think.

File a police report and see. Depending on what they find, they could recommend a number of criminal charges to the prosecutor, who is ultimately the decider of who gets charged with what. Your boyfriend may also consider applying for a personal protection order.

Did you have a lawyer during this process? That should be your first call. He or she should have what's called a nolle pros (motion and order to dismiss) in the file.
