Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

I made a statement against somebody out of anger and frustration, now i realized not all the statement is true. I don't want to send somebody to prison for something I wasn't sure I said at the time. Also a lot of people were present so it made me more confused. If I change my statement would I get in trouble? and what kind of trouble?
