I Was Arrested For Domestic Violence But My Wife Was Upset And Says She Made A Mistake When She Called The Police. Can She Have The Domestic Violence Charges Against Me Dropped?

No, only the Assistant Prosecuting Attorney can drop the charges against you and this is unlikely to occur. A victim of domestic violence often attempts to recant the statement they made to police in order to have the charges dropped against an abusive spouse.

In the past this has led to a cycle of continuous abuse. The Prosecuting Attorney’s Office prefers to file charges and let the courts decide issues of domestic violence.
