There are various Defenses available to a Defendant charged in Arizona with Domestic Violence. A powerful Defense used in the trial is Self Defense. Self Defense is raised where a Defendant can show that reasonable force was used to reasonably protect themselves. Constitutional violations can also occur during an arrest such as Miranda rights not being read and search issues. Another common “defense” is the recanting of a victim.  When a victim recants their story of events, the Defendant may use that to their advantage to negotiate a better offer from the State.
