My fiance was arrested this morning with felony demostic violence charges with injury.The only marks on me where a small scartch that could have been cause by anything during the altercation and a scatch I told the police i didnt even know had come from the alter cation. Basically I antagonized the situation to it got to that point. Anyway, I know as a victim you cant drop charges yourself, but what do I need to do that could lead them to being dropped.
