Legal Question in Criminal Law in Michigan

Are police allowed to refuse to document your injuries in a domestic violence case. I told the police she assaulted me in the truck outside. She openly admitted it. Inside the house she attacked me. She says I attacked her inside. Only real evidence is she attacked me in the truck because she admitted it. Everything in the house was he said she said. The police refused to take pictures of multiple injuries including a nasty bite mark. Then lied on the report and said I had no injuries even though in the police audio I repeatedly said I wanted them to take pictures. They refused to arrest her even though she admitted attacking me and I'm the only one being charged how can they do that

It's not that they're "allowed" do a shoddy investigation. Police often get tunnel vision in situations like yours. Bottom line you need an attorney to assist you. Feel free to contact me to discuss your case. I've handled similar situations with great results. See cbrownlegal.com.
