According to Shrink4Men Forum member and law enforcement officer, burnout10: “I learned, many years ago after responding to my domestics, that when an innocent party, especially male, sticks around to plead out his case, he ends up in jail.

If your partner has threatened to call the police as an intimidation/control tactic, don’t kid yourself.Even if she doesn’t follow through with her threat, you need to consider if you want to be with someone who believes it’s acceptable behavior to use the police to control and punish you. If you’re married; consult with an attorney about how you can safely end the relationship and proceed with a high-conflict divorce. Let the police know about the threats and ask them for advice. However, do let them know it’s untrue and let them know about the abuse she’s been inflicting.
