You haven't given us much to work with.

Were you truthful in your statement?

I was truthful. Its just the people who Im with who are my best friends didnt say anything and requested lawyers. I feel like an idiot and want to make sure I dont screw my friends over.

Without more details, I'm going to say that no...you can't change your mind just because you're worried about your friends.

You should be completely up front and honest with the attorney, they can't do anything for you if you don't tell them everything. If you have a copy of your statement you should bring it to them as well.

Are you active duty? Why haven't you gone to the ADC for help? That's what they are there for...

Thank you!!

 

[milmom]

Thank you!!

You're welcome, but keep in mind, like Pro said it's not likely you can just make the statement go away. It may be too late for you to change your story.

Ahh I know. It was super dumb. I was being naive and seriously thought she had my interests. But again I'm meeting with my attorney tomorrow to square things away. i hate this feeeling! Thank you for listening and giving me advice.

 

[Therahl1]

I really should have. At the time I kind of just froze up because I've never been in this situation before. im going tomorrow so I wanted to get some info beforehand.
