It depends. I would need more information to answer this question. Why does your ex say they waited four days? How old is your son and did he refuse to cooperate or give your ex permission to report it? If he is 15 that's a lot different than if he is 5. Who did it also makes a huge difference. If it was a stranger vs. your ex's significant other, that makes a huge difference.
So, please either write to me directly with all the information surrounding the circumstances of what happened or repost your submission so a more informative response can be given.
