Although it was clearly self defense, my husband had wounds from the guy beating on him, he was initially charged with Felonious Assult . It never went to grand jury because the Prosecutor didn't wish to procede.
This is not the reporting officers fault, they can only write a report with the facts they have available at the time and, for whatever reason they felt a charge of felonious assult was warranted. HOWEVER, the Prosecutor felt differently, the evidence to convict wasn't there.
In my opinion, there's a BIG difference between a charge on a police report and a CONVICTION. [/size][/color]
Wait, you were broken in on? How did the uninvited guest arrive?
It was a neighbor....broke the door and came in uninvited.
