My son's ex GF filed a false police report stating he won't stop texting her when actually, it's the other way around. She's been texting him - he keeps texting back "Stop texting - I don't want to talk to you".
My son was working when the officer called so I explained what's been going on. The officer listened, but proceeded as if he believed the GF. Later I thought it's not right that she's allowed to file a false police report, so I called back to discuss further.
I spoke to the same officer who told me not to worry because he didn't believe her anyway - she was dumb enough to show him all the "Stop texting me - I don't want to talk to you", messages. He told me to tell my son not to worry too, because no police or legal action would be taken against him.
But if the officer doesn't believe in the acusation in first place, why allow a police report at all?
Now that one is in place based on a lie I think she should be held accountable. I had forgotten to mention this when I was talking to the officer, but last Thu (2 days before she filed her report) my son filed one because she was excessivly texting him. He has tons of texts from her as proof, along with all his responses of "Stop Texting me!".
Any suggestions on holding her accountable? Can my son get the police report labled "false report" at this point? After all, police reports are public record - aren't they? She should not be able to play games & lie like this - it's slander in a way. BTW - she lives in another town, so her report is in her town, my sons reports are in our town.
