What is the name of your state? FL
My wife was assaulted by my ex-wife recently. My ex-wife slapped my pregnant wife in the face and then my wife grabbed her hair to prevent any further punches from landing. Somehow, an "independent witness" says that she haw my wife actually hit my ex-wife so the police sent the case to state attorney's office for review. I didn't see the hit, the only people that actually saw what really happened were my two daughters that I had with my ex-wife. They were upset that their mother hit their step mother. Also, a 16 year old girl that is friends with my ex-wife came up and hit my wife 3 times in the back with a closed fist and the police said that I couldn't prosecute her because, if you believe the independent witness, she was coming to the aid of my ex-wife. Confusing, I know, I just need to know if the state attorney comes back and says there isn't enough evidence, can I still push forward with criminal charges if I retain an attorney that can get aggressive?
