You can speak to the district attorney's office, but you are not the one pressing charges so its not actually your decision.

If you explain the situation, they might drop the charges.

Hello g:

It appears that they haven't filed charges as of yet, and your concern is how to remove the "report".

If they've done NOTHING, then I wouldn't do anything either. IF they HAVE filed charges, I'd hire an attorney. He should be the one to talk to the DA - not you.

Since she's home, though, there is a very good chance that nothing further will happen.
