Alleged victims who do not want to press battery domestic violence charges against you cannot stop the case from going forward in Nevada. This is because prosecutors believe that victims who recant their BDV allegations have ulterior motives. For example, perhaps the victim needs you out of trouble to keep financially supporting the family. Or perhaps your family is threatening to hurt the victim unless the victim recants. When victims do not cooperate with prosecutors, the state relies on other evidence such as eyewitness testimony and medical records of the victim's injuries.
