Yes, the prosecution will still allege that the verbal statements amount to DV, under the various subsections of 18-9-111. Just because something supports a CHARGE does not mean the activity is against the law and that it supports a CONVICTION.

It can be, depending on the specific words used, the context of the situation and the intent of the speaker of the words. Good luck.
