[Florida] Wrongful arrest → 2 months house arrest → case dismissed after prosecution failed to appear. Can I sue? | Oct 31, 2026 | Sourced from the original Reddit post
Location: Florida (Miami area) I was arrested for domestic violence on a person over 65. The arresting officer was a brand-new cop on her first week of work, and I was her first arrest. She completely fabricated the story. My entire family came forward and stated that she was lying and making it up. Despite that, I was still booked into jail. I hired a private attorney (total cost around $7,000). According to the public defender, I drew the worst judge in the rotation. At the bond hearing the prosecution only asked for a bond and a stay-away order, but the judge instead put me on house arrest for no clear reason. I remained on house arrest for approximately two months. During that time I lost my job, had to keep paying bills with no income, and my mother (who has cancer and frequently needs hospital treatment) was also heavily impacted. The situation caused significant psychological stress and damage. The charge was also posted on Facebook, which permanently damaged my reputation even though I was ultimately found not guilty / the case was dismissed. On the day of trial/court, the prosecution did not appear and the case was dismissed. / dismissed. I’m looking into whether I have any viable civil claims against the officer, the police department, and/or the city (false arrest, malicious prosecution, §1983 civil rights violations, etc.), especially given that the officer fabricated the story, my family contradicted her, the judge imposed house arrest beyond what the state…
Being extorted, but reporting it may get me charged with a crime as well. Fl | Oct 26, 2026 | Sourced from the original Reddit post
Location: Florida. I'm being blackmailed and extorted by someone, I stupidly caved and paid every time they said it would be the last. Already out near five figures. They went silent for a few days, I assumed they were smart and quit while they were ahead. But they've started back demanding money again, and again promising this will be the end of it. Now that my panic is gone and the anger is there, I'm ready to tell them to pound sand or I'll go to the police, or just go to the police without responding. But doing so, I would have to self incriminate to a misdemeanor. I have been trying all afternoon to speak to a local criminal defense attorney but have had no luck yet. Only four had a 24 hour answering service. One said they won't even consult until I'm charged. The other three all said the attorney was with anothrr client and would call me within 30 minutes. Pushing two hours now with no call back from any of the firms. So while I anxiously await one of them to call, what can I do here to end the extortion and limit the potential to be charged myself?
Can I sue ex for DV relationship? TW - SA | Oct 25, 2026 | Sourced from the original Reddit post
Location: Florida Please be gentle on me because I already am ashamed of how I let myself be in this situation for as long as I did. Back story; I spent 2 years in a DV relationship. Emotional, physical, sexual, and financial abuse. I was sexually assaulted a handful of times while I was having medical events or he would force himself onto me in other circumstances. One of these situations resulted in a pregnancy. Which he spent the entirety of my pregnancy abusing me. I almost lost the baby at 4 months from assaulting me. He then strangled me until I was no longer conscious 3 weeks before I gave birth when I tried to end the relationship and return his belongings. I did go to the police after that when I saw the bruising around my neck. He was arrested. And he just plead guilty and is now a convicted felon. I encouraged for probation instead of prison time because I really needed financial help with the baby and if he was in prison I figured I would not receive any. Well, jokes on me, of course he isn’t willing to help and I am not receiving any help. I lost my good paying job that I worked for 5 years during the pregnancy and exhausted my short term leave because he assaulted me and I almost lost the baby at 4 months and I wasn’t able to return. So I have been without income for a long…
