Ex trying to send my family to jail can he?

Question

My soon to be ex picked me up from work the other day-drunk-we argue dhe hit me and I call my 20 year old daughter while in car crying knowing she would call cops as soon as we arrived home so he calls his dad to meet us and tells him to call police that I hit him! I get arrested but so does he(his 10th or so over domestic abuse)My first.I tell my family to get our son and take whatever of value for my bail to sell.They take his transformer collection and garage tv-then they take my clothes and my daughters because his routine is ti come out and cut up my clothes and wrecking her stuff,He never lays a hand on her or our son because he knows they will press charges and stupid that I am i never do.Then in their anger they do to his things what he has done to mine1:slash the tires on his trucks 2)slashed and threw his clothes in pool 3)threw his pride gas grill in pool .So now he calls police aand I say I did that to our stuff and it's mine too right? he used to wreck my cars and take them a cops tell me I can't do anything its community property.My daughter went to try and get out stuff she forgot and he had just got aout on bail(I got out hour earlier and went to see son-he went home and of course was enraged-no one has ever touched his stuff-all the tv's stereo's clothes he's destroyed of ours we've never touche dhis-but my mom and sister were upset and gave him a taste of his medicine.He even credited them with wrecking the house(holes in walls) he did that weekend before.Neighbors all hate him yet they told cops what they saw.they have told me though they are strangers that they hear me screaming sometimes and if Iever need help just come over.He claimed my daighter tried to run him over-which of course isn't true-she drove off when she saw he was home outside checking ou damage to cars and he trew a flashlight at her car then called her cell and threatened her(she did'ntrecord it)She was frightened she and I are not like my mom and sister,we are non confrontational people.He won't come after us he's too scared to go to jail but he 's smart and will get at us by having us arrested.No one saw them trash anything0justsaw them there and take tv but at my request-canthey still get arrested?

Answer 1

....What...the...F*** is wrong with you...? You're a grown *** woman so if you want to stay and get beat on that's your choice but you're dragging your family in the middle of this. Let's review:

1. He's attacked and threatened your family.

2. He beats you.

3. He's willing to do what you won't and press charges giving YOU a record and making you less believable if you ever do wise up and try to put his a** where he belongs.

4. He's actually ATTACKED your daughter when he thew a flashlight at her.

I'm almost too disgusted with this situation to even comment. YOU need to take charge of your life and get this abusive *** out of your families life. They aren't going to abandon you because they love and want to protect you. Why don't you want to protect them in return? Why do you constantly want to hide behind them when he hits you yet again and yet you won't leave? You're putting them in both legal and real physical danger because - for whatever reason - you choose to stay with this person. I'll pray for your family.

Answer 2

Tell you family to deny it if questioned. The police typically won’t be bothered to investigate this type of thing, especially when it’s related to a domestic dispute.

That’s a jacked up situation. Makes me happy I’ve never gotten into some relationship like that.

Answer 3

I can't make sense out of that but yes anyone can get anyone else thrown in jail in this wonderful police state. And you'll be there from a few hours to a few days waiting on bail. The system requires an endless supply of bodies, no one cares weather your guilty or innocent they just need bodies to keep the system running and the lawyers paid. Take the advice of Jesus.

Settle the matter quickly lest he have you thrown into prison.
