My question involves criminal law for the state of: San Francisco, California
On 12/25/2009, My ex boyfriend violently attacked me. He dragged me around his house by my hair and my ankles, he almost killed me. I went home and took pictures but I was scared of my life and scared of what he might have done to me if I retaliated. It took me a lot of courage but I finally went to the police 3 weeks later. I went to the police station with my pictures, the police there even took pictures of my injuries. After they filed the report, they decided to arrest him. They served him with an EPO and confiscated his gun.
The DA, with the amount of evidence I had decided to dismiss the case. There were many outcry witnesses whom hadn't been interviewed yet, and there were text messages going from my ex boyfriend to me proving he did commit the crime. His ex girlfriend whom he has beaten up several times is willing to testify against him.
However, the DA did not seem interested in persuing the DV case. She said she did not have enough evidence to prove it was beyond a reasonable doubt, and that I had feared for my life. I am DEVASTATED. She indicated I should be happy my ex boyfriend is being charged with felony narcotics.
What can I do to make the DA press charges against my ex boyfriend? I am willing to testify a long with his ex girlfriend. There are pictures of my injuries, is that not enough evidence to press charges against him?
There is no justice in this and I feel the DA is letting him get away with committing a crime. What can I do?
