sorry I'm new on how this posting worked.
We're in Hawaii, and My boyfriend just got arrested because of his crazy ex from 2 years ago. His ex has been harassing us, creeping on us while we work, and sit outside of our house. We have text messages, video footage from around the house, and even neighbors that witnessed him doing this to us.
The cops took my boyfriend in for questioning and we think it's because his ex trying to get him for domestic violence or a restraining order thing. He has to be in the station till morning and go to family court to talk with a judge. I'm real scared of what will happen cus we did nothing to the guy and he somehow gets the police on his side! My bf is the one with the proof of texts on his phone. Do you think the police will switch to our side when we show all the proof? And what about the judge? Will the judge even bother to look at what he has to show? I need some help on how i can help him get through this. We don't have many friends here that we can rely on.

You haven't told us why he was picked up - what were the charges?

The police wouldn't tell you. Your BF was informed of the charges if he was arrested. Are you sure he was arrested?

... then he needs to get an attorney and keep his mouth shut.

How many times did he call the police when he was being "stalked"? Why FAMILY court?

They threw cuffs on him and brought him to the station saying he has to stay there till morning.
I suspect there is more to the story than you have related here. I also suspect that there is more to the story than you know.

Protective orders in this sort of situation are heard in Family Court in HI ( http://www.courts.state.hi.us/self-help/protective_orders/protective_orders.html )

I suspect the OP's BF is suspected of having violated a protective order issued by the Family Court.

My bf thinks that it had to do with some police call from his ex while my bf was dealing with an officer across the street from the house because of some homeless guy. The police were asking him if he was at his ex's house but he was already with an officer at the same time while that was said to have happened?

There's really nobody here can guess about this matter. You'll have to wait and see...

Thanks Zig :)

I'm thinking that someone isn't being entirely truthful. Of course, that never happens .. right?

Nevermind it all guys! The DA dropped the charges before it went to court. The statement made by the ex to the police made no sense to them but they still had to go through some steps because it was said to be a domestic abuse.
