I am embarrassed for the prosecutor. Too many have that mindset--it's one we are working to train out of them. With a case like this, it's better to prosecute and lose than not try to hold the offender accountable.
That doesn't help you, though. All I can say is to keep documenting and reporting violations. Establishing a pattern can help for future cases.

Sending you a big hug.
We still have a charge in the city--with a VERY aggressive prosecutor (they separate city and county where i am)--but its weak and i dont think it will hold. This has me totally discouraged from reporting because now i feel like this is going to make me look like a vindictive b**** at our custody hearing.
The stupidest part about this is we had a plea deal into him that he hadnt turned down yet and she dropped the charge before even hearing back. W.T.F.
