My ex girlfriend has been spreading some nasty rumors lately. Her claims are that for the past few weekends I have been going to her house and trying and sometimes raping her (depending on who you ask.) Also she has been wearing make-up to "cover up the bruises I gave her." Yesterday she started wearing an arm sling, claiming that when I tried to "rape" her, she tried to get away and I slammed her arm in the door. For all of the times she says I am doing this, I have been with family or friends with their family. This event has gone on for three weeks now and I am seriously considering dropping out of school to finish my SENIOR year somewhere different, that way I don't have to deal with this. This event has also made me relapse into severe depression and this could have dire consequences if these are not stopped.
My question(s) are:
1. What are my options?
2. What trouble, if any, can she get in?
3. Is it worth a restraining order?
4. Is is worth a court case?
Thank you for reading and please help me in my situation.
Also I have talked to my current girlfriend, My AP teacher , my Guidence counsulor and my Mom about this. My Mom has called her parents, but either my ex picks up and hangs up or no one anwsers or calls back. She has said to he GC, my GF and my Mom that she didn't start these rumors, but I have many friends that have heard it directly from her.
She is 17 and I am 18.
