Common Misconceptions about Domestic Violence Charges in Allegheny County, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Contrary to Popular opinion, the accuser cannot simply "make the charge go away." Once an accusation is made, the law enforcement agency and the prosecutor working on your case are in complete control. It is not uncommon in domestic violence cases for the accuser to "take back" what they previously said and/or to insist that the prosecutor should not proceed with the charges. Even if the accuser claims to have lied to the police, it is within the sole discretion of the prosecutor to decide whether the charges are justified and whether there is sufficient evidence to pursue the case. What is more, if the original accuser admits to lying to the police, the "accuser" can be subjected to criminal charges for filing a false police report.
