Nothing, other than to make clear to the prosecutor and judge that you don't want him jailed and refuse to cooperate in prosecution as a witness. Once arrested, the court and prosecutor policy is to vigorously prosecute, regardless of the change of heart of the victim, which is frequently intimidated. Get him an attorney.

Your husband defintely needs an attorney. Domestic violence charges are taken very seriously and unless devoid of supporting facts, are nearly always prosecuted. You can go to my website for more information. Call me if you get serious about hiring an attorney.

Best of luck
