How does my ex get out a charge?

My ex went through a rough time with her husband and needed a place to stay. I let her stay with me. She has a drinking problem and calls the a lot. One night she she called stating I had hit her. She called multiple times and on the last visit from the police she said I didn't actually hit her and she was arrested. Can I help her or is she in ?

If the police or prosecutor contact you, you can request that they not press , otherwise, it is out of your hands. You do not get to decide whether charges proceed.
