It's slightly different here in the UK. The Police usually side with the reporter of the abuse in most cases.

Her mother even had the audacity to say to me after the fight that she had never seen that side to me before!!

Yeah you never saw that side to me before because I wasn't verging on death normally but in this case I was and trying to save myself - jeez.
