While living in FL with now x-wife,one night after having sex, we had gotten into an argument about finances.It was getting late and I didnt want to argue any more so I went into spare bedroom to sleep.Well lo and behold,next morning I was awakened by county sheriffs and told to step outside with officers as my wife had said I physically abused her.
After the other officer was inside talking with wife,he came out and told me I was under arrest for sexual battery(spousal rape).While on the way to jail,police informed me that the charge would never stick yet they had no choice since wife signed an affadavit stating it happened.
To make a long story short,I was booked and held on $100,000 bond.I was eventually released (after spending 28 days in county jail)because state could not prove its case,yet I will always have that arrest on my record.
Needless to say that wife and I never reconciled after that and have been happily divorced for 5 years now.
They said they were there because she had called to say I had physically attacked her. I told them I hadn't and luckily one of the cops knew me from an unrelated incident in the neighborhood.
When she came down she was drunk and told a story that was so wild, along with her obvious condition, they believed me. The next day she barely recalled she had done it!
We are still "married" but not for long, in process now.
