Legal Question in Criminal Law in California
Hello, I am the alleged victim in the case. The deputy then charged him with criminal threats on her and resisitng arrest while in the police car. I obtained police report and found that the deputy wrote her own story and made up stuff. I notified da and took polygraph on my own to show that the statement i made was not the one she wrote. later it was found to be the deputy under internal affairs for an incident she falsely identified herself to suspet and it was all recorded on belt recorder. My question is...can I write a letter to Judge letting the judge know all the details as well as my boyfriends character and his medical issues as well that hes having in jail and if I can do I deliver straight to her courtroom?

Most of the issues you describe deal with credibility of witnesses that are for a jury to decide. If the DA believes you he may look at the State's case but it still is based on credibility. Judges will not entertain direct communications from a party ( ex parte) and most not even looked at
It's not clear whether you're trying to help the prosecution or the defense. Either way, you should approach the lawyer on that side of the case instead of going to the court directly. The judge will not consider anything you submit on your own, especially if you don't also serve it on defense counsel and the prosecutor.
