Are you dealing with a legal issue after defending yourself and your girlfriend from attackers who broke into your home? Need advice on navigating the court system and understanding your rights? Facing a battery charge despite being the victim of an attack? Worried about potential jail time for protecting yourself and your loved one? #LegalAdvice #SelfDefense #BatteryCharge #HomeInvasion #CourtCase #ProtectingRights #SeekingHelp
So do you want to tell us the truth? Or do you expect everyone to believe this BS?
Don’t talk to anyone else’s lawyer, do not talk to police, do not talk to anyone. You need to call and attorney now. Don’t show up to court without one.
You need to hire a criminal defense lawyer immediately. Stop talking to the police without one.
As other comments say, get a lawyer. I am not a lawyer. Not knowing your jurisdiction, it’s hard to say anything for sure, but you may have screwed up by stopping the attackers from leaving. After that point, any force you used could (depending on a lot of factors) not count as self-defence
Were the intruders arrested?
Not legal advise. I am a criminal defense lawyer but not your lawyer. Speaking to cops during the investigation was a bad idea. But you didn’t know better. What you say will always be twisted against you. What a lawyer says is not an admission. Do not try to speak in court. What you say will be twisted in court. Do not fall for that trap. If you are facing jail you have a public defender already, you may meet them on Monday, When you go to court. Ask who your lawyer is. That’s ALL. Nothing will be solved on monday. They will just read you charges if they file them. All you need to do now is just ask your PD or paid lawyer to work the case for you and give them all the info on what went down. Unfortunately many have been in your place and have gotten in worse trouble for thinking they can fix it alone. I’m sorry this happened to you.
This doesn’t pass the idiot test and is obviously missing information.
Who were the two dudes, why were they there, why did she open the door?
Intruders with masks are trying to break in and your girlfriend lets them in?
Did she set you up?
This reads like we don’t have all the information. Clearly they were targeting you and you let them in and shit hit the fan.
Tell your laywer everything don’t hold back and don’t tell the cops shit without your laywer present
