Can a recording that you made and turned over to the police to prove your case be used against you in court?
JamesCrowley
Surely. Any evidence can be used against you.
Additional: Not really enough information is given in order to answer. How was it made? How was it obtained? It may not amount to anything more than 'hearsay.' If it was not obtained in accordance with the law it is doubtful that it could be introduced in court as evidence. However, the information contained on the recording may be used by law enforcement, during their investigation. If the recording was made contrary to law you COULD be charged with THAT offense.

If you are arrested the longest you can be held in POLICE custody is until the next scheduled convening of court, at which time you will be presented to court. What happens after that is in the hands of the court. You will not be held, or returned. to POLICE custody. If you are continued to be held in confinement, if you are an adult, it will probably be by whichever agency operates the jails or detention facilities in your jurisdiction (possibly the Sheriff's office), or if a juvenile, you will be turned over to the Juvenile authorities.
I turned my dad in for child pornography,in August,Shouldn't I have been informed on the court proceedings,and his arrest I'd like to be in court.?
Not necessarily, but most likely, you will be contacted by the police or a lawyer to become a witness. Because Child pornography is against the law, in this situation it would be him v.s. the state/government. Also, the crime wasn't done against you, so they don't necessarily have to involve you. Had he abused or stolen from you, it would be a different story.
