Re: girlfriend pressured to sign a statement about a domestic violence incident
Well, yes and no. It holds up in so much as the jury will hear that she signed it and what it says. But she'll be able to explain what really happened, how the statement was incorrect and why it was incorrect (cop wrote and pressured). By the way, I'm excellent at defending DV cases if you'd like assistance. Contact me directly.
