What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
Toronto, Canada (Canadian Law)
I am a 16 year old teenager and
I have been wrongfully accused of breach of probation
I was arrested on February 26th 2009 on an allegation that i have been sending threats(via Facebook) to the victim who has a restraining order on me as part of the 18 month probation. On the disclosure it shows a different person who had sent the threats and the threats were made while i was at school so it couldn't be me. I am currently on house arrest until December 1st which is my trial date.
I know for a fact that i am going to plead not guilty cause of the sufficient evidence to prove it was not me
They took my phone for evidence
I have severe depression
stress/heart related issues all caused by the isolation of me in my home
i have been humiliated by being arrested inside my school for something i did not commit
I believe the police officer who arrested me did not have the proven grounds to make an arrest like that
Now i am wondering because of the negligence in the police investigation can i sue for malicious prosecution?.. because of the over weighing evidence that clearly proves it was not me who sent the threats?
Is there other matters which i can sue them for?
