Retracting False Accusations

Courtesy Austin Criminal Defense Lawyer  Wed, 04/30/2008 - 9:41am

From an anonymous commenter (Revised for spelling, punctuation and all caps; comment since deleted):

I called the police on my boyfriend and said he hit me with a gun which never happened. I was mad and I wanted him to go to jail that day.

But now I feel bad for lying and I want to tell the truth but I don’t know what will happen since I lied to the police.

Please help me and tell me...
