Asked on Jun 16th, 2013 on Criminal Law - Texas
More details to this question:
I filed a police report where I had gotten robbed outside a Wal-Mart but it didn’t happen like that it actually happened but not at Wal-Mart just minutes before I went to Wal-Mart but the robbers told me that if I call the police they would find me at my house. I was scared not for me but my kids, well I got arrested and I’m out on 800 bond what could I do so that I won’t end up in jail. I know it was wrong and I’m sorry for it.

Hire a lawyer. If what you are saying is what happened, you may be able to have the case dismissed but YOU should not talk with anyone but your lawyer.

You got arrested for a false report? This is more serious than you make it out to be. This is a crime of moral turpitude and you should hire the best lawyer you can afford.
