OK so the STBX has accused me of abuse, i actually got arrested for it. The only thing that i did was try to calm her down when she was hysterical and trying to leave with my child. So anyway, prosecuting atty has offered a deal. 1-2 years probation w a suspended sentence. I don't like this for several reasons. First, I'M INNOCENT! I do not like the idea of admitting guilt when all i was trying to do was protect my kid. Second, STBX has already accused me of being abusive during the marriage, being a child abuser, being a child molester, being gay and cheating on her w men. All of which are false, and i can prove most of it. I don't want to let her have anything. Her and her mom are crazy and they are trying everything under the sun to ruin my name and my life. I cannot give them even the smallest victory. Third, they are evil enough to actually try and get me in trouble for something, i wouldn't put anything past them. I think i can win this case. The problem is, it is going to cost me A LOT more money to fight this. It could also cost me my promotion that i already have, or could cost me my job. I would like some advice and opinions, right now i'm leaning towards fighting to the death...
