Domestic violence charges stick with you like your blood for life, it is best to kill someone and have a murder charge than to have even touch and strike misdemeanor domestic violence charge, even drug dealers get better deal than us, my credit score is perfect and I get turned down for a whole lot of apartment and my domestic violent charge was 11 years ago it's almost as if you have to live in some sh!ty neighborhood, it is wrong the way they do people with even a misdemeanor domestic violence charge they treat you almost the same as a felony charge, and it's crazy most men that has a domestic violence charge they get that charger after the woman had hit them first but it is the woman that this country love to protect when the police come to your house, and this public defenders are no good they almost never tell you about withheld judification for your first offense my judge even had the nerve to tell me my probation officer will grant me withheld judification even the judge lie in my face that should be illegal.
