Contact the case agent assigned to your incident. Express your desire to "drop charges." However, due to the nature of Domestic Violence, in most cases the police department will proceed with the investigation by submitting the case to the District Attorney's office for reveiw and consideration of filing a criminal complaint; regardless of the victim's desire to prosecute.

If the abuse in progress, contact the police department by calling 911. If the abuse has recently occurred, but the "emergency" is over, contact the police department business line at (951) 787-7911. In either case, contact the case agent in order to update the initial investigation.

Call the General Investigations Bureau's front office at (951) 320 -8000. Be prepared to provide the report number assigned to the investigation by the police officer that took the initial report. If you don't have the report number, ask to speak with a Domestic Violence Detective or the unit supervisor.

Contact the Alternatives to Domestic Violence 24 hour Crisis Line at (951) 683 0829. An advocate will provide information and make appropriate referals.
