What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MISSOURI
my son was arrested for defending himself against someone that assaulted him first. The police did not take a statement from my son or his witness' and stated that they did not need to. But took a statement from the other party. My son is black the other party is white and so was the police officer. The other party has been harrassing my son for a month now and nothing has been done to him but as soon as my son fights back he is wrong. The prosecutor only has one side of the story so a warrant has been placed on my son. What can be done. This sounds racial and unfair to me. Also while he was in jail for assault he was not allowed a phone call.
