QUESTION
How can I prove to the judge that my wife exaggerated her story?
Asked on Jan 28th, 2013 on Criminal Law - Texas
More details to this question:
The wife and I got into an argument about parenting our son. She called the police on me and told them that I "terrified" her and that she thought I would hurt her. I've never hurt her and I would never lay a finger on her. Is getting worked up about a topic a crime? This is my son that we are talking about. I don't want him hanging around kids who do drugs and my wife doesn't seem to care about the crowd that our son is associated with. Now I'm being penalized for caring about the well-being of my child. She's a liar and always has been.

You should retain a lawyer to handle the matter. How can your wife lie about something that important? I would not stay with a woman who was a liar, but that is your choice. If she was not hurt they will reduce it to a violation, but if you are innocent go to trial.

Well you want to get witnesses to testify to her reputation for dishonesty.

If you were arrested then you should get an attorney. The judge will not dismiss. You can have a trial. The day could be persuaded but that will take some work. I would be happy to discuss representation.

This is what a trial is for. If you feel you are not guilty, you need to have a jury find you not guilty. A judge has no discretion to dismiss charges.

Hire a lawyer. Don't for a moment think that the Judge or prosecutor will believe your wife if she decides to recant her story, or anything that comes out of your mouth. Hire a lawyer before you open your mouth in open court and incriminate yourself further.
