My question involves criminal law for the state of: NJ
I was contacted by a girl on plentyoffish.com. I usually google a person's name before meeting up with them but I decided to meet up with her. She was normal then crazy, normal, and now a down right sociopath.
I knew her since April. It was kind of normal then straight down hill.
She already owes me money but it appears to be a scam. I thought about breaking up with her but if I do how would she pay me back? So, I offered to help her find a job and everything. Instead she ends up owing me more money. I wanted to talk and reason with her because I didn't want to make this a legal matter.
Yesterday she was screaming like a lunatic. She tells me she needs more money and I tell her I'm fed up with this nonsense. Turns out she had a fine and waited till I was there in person to tell me about it. I told her I'll think about and I had no idea, how do I get this crazy girl out of my car?
So, she does something that I couldn't believe and still don't. As I was driving on the highway she physically lunges at me. I couldn't see the road and I begain swerving between two lanes. She's searching the breast pocket of my jacket to take my wallet. I grab her hand and the car continues to swerve. I put my hand back at the wheel to avoid an accident. I almost hit someone. She takes all the money I had and threw the wallet back at me. Shoves the money in her bra and calls me a jerk.
This happens right before this exit and I ended up at some random street corner. She gives the money to this shady guy who drives off. And now? She's acting full blown crazy. I have to get out of here but this is my car and all her stuff is in here what do I do? What do I do? I do not want anything to do with this pyscho. Then she tells me she is gonna finally introduce me to her friend. I don't know who he is but I don't want to know this person. I think she is gonna do something worse to me.
So, I ditched her. She deserves worse. I go straight to the police I'm not dealing with this girl. They tell me due to juristiction I had to go to NJ State Police. And well.... They aren't helpful at all. But they did have a point. They all think she's scamming me. My phone rang and one of the officers answers. She's on the line and tells the police that I already agreed to loan the money and that she is paying me back next week.
Thank is a lie. Everything she said is a lie. I tell the cop how she lunge at me for my wallet. Instead they told me to file small claims and ask if I was drinking.The cops said because I know her and offered her money serveal times that this is a civil matter. So unreal.
Now she's making fun of me via text calling me a lowlife. claims she never took my wallet. I recorded our conversation to prove she took it.
So, my question, how come this isn't enough to make this a criminal matter?
