| If you were falsley accused, arrested, (I assume by police, you didnt say, or was it a bail bondsman harrassing you ?), and then charged with criminal offences, you need an attorney. |

| If they charged you, depending on the seriousness of the charges, I would defend myself by hiring an atty. I dont have much money, etc, I really only have my reputation. |

| Many people are charged every day for crimes they did not do, that is why there is a court date date and is why each side has a attorney.
so if you are not guilty, get an attorney |

| What false statements did you make to law enforcement? If you are not the person they were looking for, were do the statements come into play?
As everyone has said, you need an attorney. If you cannot afford one, ask the court for a court appointed one. Call the ACLU. Legal Assistance. |
