And your question is?

The answer to the proper question is that, if you've been charged with a crime, hire a criminal defense attorney to defend you against the charges if you want to minimize the chance of being convicted. He'll use whatever admissible witnesses, facts and evidence you may have. That is, unless you think you're capable of representing yourself in the pretrial motions and hearings, and at trial. You'd be going up against an experienced professional prosecutor. You'll need to be capable of knowing and complying with all the court rules and procedures that apply.
