Oh and statements are sworn statements, so lying in them is a crime and if it pisses the cops off, the person may be charged.
The statement was taken from me while my blood alcohol was 0.103. I feel the statement was forced and I signed it because I wanted to go home as it was 4am. I don't even know what was in the statment as I was refused a copy when I asked for one.
I retracted it as soon as possible the day after because I felt this way.
The statment in question has been the driving force behind a AVO and an assult charge against my husband.
Because of this I am not unable to run our business. I am now looking at huge debts as it has dragged on to six weeks now where I have not been able to have contact with my husband. And it does not look like they will drop it any time soon.
As I am the "protected person" I can't even go to the court dates so have to rely on third hand information about what is going on.
I am so frustrated and angry that the system is able to do this to me when I do not need protection. I need it all sorted so we can move on with our lives.
