What is the name of your state? Massachusetts
I posted a week ago, about how I took out a restraining order on an individual who has been harassing my family and me for a little over a year now. Last week she happened to run into me while I was talking to my friend, and she attacked me. That same day I went and filed criminal charges.
We had to go to a hearing this week. when I got there I found out that she had press charges on me too, falsely accussing me of attacking her first. Of the time that she attacked me I didn't have my restraining order paper on me, so the police officers couldn't arrest her, and when I called the police department they told me they didn't serve her the papers yet. It took them two weeks to serve the papers. The restraining order is a temporary one, so it's over in a few days.
My question here, is where is the justice? I have police reports from a year ago on this person. My parents have police reports, she has a criminal background and so on.
She is playing a game with the justice system, by trying to get back at me by filing false charges. Moreover, lying and saying that I attacked her. I'm being charged with something I didn't do, and I do not have enough money to get a lawyer. What do I do? I don't know what to do next, and I am becoming weak, like there is no justice for me. What can I do? I've done everything that I can.
Oh, and she is a very good actress, she will cry, and act as if she's the victim.
I forgot to mention that after I got back from the hearing with her. She contacted me and pleaded with me to drop the charges. She said if I don't then we both will be going down.
