TWR has been suspended for breaking Site Rules in a particularly stupid way.
You have GOT to tell the truth, you cannot let him be charged with something he didnt do. Plus you may have a chance of salvaging your relationship with him, but if you dont tell the truth then I can guarantee that you two are over. The sooner you do it the better, and you will feel better yourself.
Hello Kimmy
UK police and CPS have a zero tolerence approach to domestic abuse offences and have a policy to make detailed enquiries with any person (victim) wishing to withdraw their 'statement of evidence'.
I am afraid this is a serious matter if a person has been remanded in custody but it will get more serious if you let this get to court.
In a nutshell, the police could fine you for wasting police time to charging you with perverting the course of justice. If false evidence is given in-chief at court then you could be looking at the very serious offence of purjury.
Sorry for a very basic answer but I am just trying to highlight the benefit of telling the police before the next stage.
All the best

Cases like this are exactly why 'victims' of rape should be given a very hard time. Too many women lie to get revengae. I've come across them in my lifetime and also seen the genuine too. The latter is not nice and until women get it into their thick skulls that lying not only messes up the life of the wrongly accused and the lives of genuine women who have been hurt, it will continue.
The other thing is that any unfounded case still goes down as a statistic. So when Cameron and his cronies come out with 'we need to get rape/assult convictions up' it's stories like this thread which are the cause of false figures.

kimmy, I think that you acted on the spur of the moment because you wanted to lash out at your partner, and now you know that it was the wrong thing to do!.....you should come clean, tell the police the truth, and hope they'll let you off with a caution!.....hope you do the right thing!.....you don't want it on your concience surely!............
