Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

I was arrested at a skating rink because my wife called the police and told them that I verbally threatend her life inside the skating rink. She had a friend who she was talking to on the cell phone come up to the skating rink to tell the police that she heard me threaten my wife while she was on the cell phone with her. Inside the skating rink it is very loud with music. The skating rink owner was their that night and did an advidavit stating that I did nothing wrong, no parents said anything to her or the staff about any domestic fights going on and that she did not even know my wife was their that night because I was skating with my daughters every time she saw me. I was indicted by the grand jury. I have NEVER been arrested before, I am 40 yrs old and served 8 years in the UNited States Marine Corps. My wife also filed a TPO against me 2 days after I got out of jail even though the bond protects her. Last year my wife filed molestation charges against me which was dropped, saying I was molesting my daughters, she lost 2 previous children to her 2 ex husbands. Do you think the DA will drop charges or take it to a jury trial because I am willing to go to a jury trial if they dont drop charges.

Given all the things that have already happened, it is obvious that you already should have hired a lawyer. The fact that the DA had you indicted in a very strong indication that he wants to pusrue the case. If you have not already obtained counsel, get counsel.

I think you should prepare for jury trial. The grand jury indicted you, so the prosecutor will try you. How does your willingness to go to jury trial translate into beating the charges at jury trial? Who will be trying the case? You. See website on how to select an attorney: www.lawrencelewispc.com
