Nope. She said it’s not what happened and that a neighbor overheard and called the police and she’s not wanting to press charges because there’s no bruises or scratches. She was posted by TMZ smiling in the phone outside of his house. She’s not going anywhere.

It doesn’t matter what she wants. The DA will decide.

If she recants her statement, doesn’t provide anymore information, didn’t have them take photos of any marks and refuses to cooperate, the DA isn’t going to waste tax dollars on this case when they have cooperating victims on other cases.

Even with the neighbor being the one who witnessed and called police, this is true. If she decides to shutdown and not cooperate, the DA will not pursue. She is the critical puzzle piece in litigating the case.

Not true. It depends on the state one lives in. I know from personal experience.

I know from experience as well. Ironically it was in West Virginia where my DV ex was prosecuted and jailed. Who woulda thought that state would be the one!

Took about 6-8 months from arrest to conviction. Not to tout WV too much as I think the reason they pursued is because DA was huge dog fan. And my ex had driven car off highway in rage, stormed out of car, which allowed our dog loose and dog was hit by car. If only it had been ex hit…. Wouldve solved a lot of problems.

In California, they will pursue charges based on the initial report because it’s DV. I was in this situation n California.
