Re: police report admissable?
No. You may be able to attack his credibility at pre-lim or trial with any inconsistencies between his report and his testimony. Understand that DV charges will generally be vigorously prosecuted, whether the victim wants to or not. Be prepared, and hire an attorney. Feel free to contact me if serious about doing so.
