It is not possible to give you a clear legal answer to your inquiry without a more detailed evaluation of the facts of your case. From your description of your situation, it appears that you are in serious need of legal assistance BEFORE you go to family court, and before you answer any questions put to you by investigators.
You are best advised to seek the services of a competent Kentucky attorney. You can get a referral to a criminal law specialist from the Kentucky Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, at
Additionally, you can telephone your local bar association for a referral, or can find a good lawyer on-line at the Kentucky Bar Association's Lawyer Referral Service:
