After charges filed by DA, can victim drop charges?
|
My iPhone was stolen by drugstore clerk. Thanks to surveillance, police recover it from his car that day. I was encouraged to press charges despite having my property returned to me by the police. Turns out charges have been filed by the DA and the thief has an arraignment in August. Now, come to find out my sister is an acquaintance of his cousin. His cousin calls my sister begging to arrange for me to have a meeting with him to discuss this so he doesn't get screwed over by the court system. She also told my sister that it was a mean-spirited move to press charged since I got the stolen property back. Realistically, even if I wanted to, is there even anything I can do now at this point now that it's in the DA's hands? Wouldn’t me changing my story constitute filing a false report? Also, if he pleads not guilty and it does go to trial, what would be the likliehood of me having to be witness at the trial?
