Im Really Scared.

Card image cap

Location: New Mexico

I (F25) filed a police report regarding my sexual assault. The incident happened back in June of 2025 and the perpetrator was my ex. For context I live in New Mexico and its where this incident happened. I gave an honest recounting of what happened that night to the best of my ability, but I haven't mentioned all the context in our relationship I guess...? Like some other instances of problematic behavior in our relationship. Im not really sure what to mention and im not even sure if I have a strong case. I dont have any physical evidence. The only evidence I really have are texts between me and my ex. The detective I talked to said there sounds like the case has two possible felonies, but that the case is more of a "he said, she said". I want to be as honest as possible, but im thinking of things that I didnt think to mention last night, just about our overall relationship, that Im now thinking might be important...? I feel like im kind of at a loss and I dont know if im doing any of this right. And they questioned me about why I waited so long and I struggled with giving that answer. Im so nervous about this whole thing. I would like justice and I want to help make sure my ex doesn't hurt anyone else, but this is all really daunting. Does anyone have any advise? I dont take any of this lightly and I wanna do the best I can.
