Re: False Police Report Charge

In Michigan, the maximum penalty is the same as the false crime you reported. Therefore, if you reported a false murder, you would be facing the same penalties as a murder charge. This is serious and you need representation. Please call my office for a free consultation. Eric I. Kutinsky, Esq.

First time in trouble, no jail generally, probation, drug test, maybe... every case and every judge is different. Ask your lawyer and don't tell me you don't have one.
