Hi there..I need help regarding an arson case. My boyfriend was arrested for arson..He put a road flare by my garage and it burnt a small amount. He also was sighted playing with them around my complex...He was highly inebriated and we were in a fight...Not trying to make excuses for him..but he is not normally violent. Anyways...I have a subpoena to come in and give my testimony...I honestly don't want anything to do with this,..can I drop the charges? Can I retract my statement? What will happen if I can't/dont show? I do have work and cant get out of it. He also has witnesses that saw him playing with the flares but not actually setting it next to my garage. I didn't see him do it. I just dont want him to go to jail for 8 years which is what was threatened to him..I think he needs phychiatric help for his alcohol abuse and/or anger problems...jail will only destroy his life. Anyways..any help that you can offer will be very helpful..Trial is in two days!! Thanks so much
