I don’t want to testify against my boyfriend but I’m on parole will that be a parole violation

I called the cops on my boyfriend now he says he’s getting charged with domestic violence in the second degree and kidnapping in the second degree when really I was just worked up and overwhelmed at the time I gave my statement I just wish this would all go away I’m on parole I’m not sure what will happen if they try to get me for filing a false statement

Justin’s Answer

If you did give a false statement to police, then yes, that is a crime and probably a parole violation. If you refuse to testify, a judge can hold you in contempt and put you in jail until you do testify. This sounds like a difficult situation; you will have to contact a criminal defense attorney to get more information.
