What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WV
My husband and I were having an argument and my 19 year old daughter felt it to be her place to tell her step dad what she thought and he called her a name. She then slapped him across the face and he reacted by grabbing her and wrestling her to the floor and holding her down. She called the police and they both ended up getting arrested for domestic violence because they both put their hands on the other. My husband and daughter are not to be around each other or talk to each other until their hearing (which could be months). Is there a possiblity that they will both have to go back to jail? Neither on wants to press charges but that doesn't matter in our state.
