    Default Accused Of Criminal Property Damage

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Illinois
    Hi , Im hoping someone will be able to help me . Two weeks ago I was on my own property mowing my lawn while 3 people in a car drive by and start cursing and giving me the finger. The people live in my neighborhood 2 adults and 1 child. I stopped mowing the lawn while still on my property and start yelling at them back. The vehicle then pulls down the street to the stop sign wich is about 100 ft away. The man starts yelling and we argue but never come close to each other. After the argument the people drive away but call the police and say I threw a rock at them and it cracked there windshield. The officer appears at my door and tells me he believes them because all 3 people say the same story. I have a home security system wich has it all on tape on clearly shows I never threw anything. We have called the police on these people many times before wich ended with LE telling them to stay away from us. I told the officer my side of the story but he sent me a summons to appear in court. My mother and girlfriend witnessed the event also and I have tape. What is likely to happen at court ? Please help and thankyou

    Get a lawyer, give him the tape, and have him try to get it all thrown out.
