Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

a friend was charged with agg robbery...he was there but did not commit the crime. The "victim" gave a false police report because he did not want his wife to know he was at a motel with another woman and then changed the report 2 weeks later to reflect that he was at the motel. Shouldn't the case be dismissed for his false report?
