Whether the victim shows up or not has nothing to do with you. If you are in court, you almost certainly have been arrested already.
If the victim doesn't show up at the trial (in court) then the state may lose their case against you.

If a person in the United States has five claims of abuse and not be arrested then it is because the victim or any witnesses refuse to form a complaint. Also, the victim would have to report the abuse to the police and photos of cuts; split lips; black eyes; missing teeth and even sometimes cigarette burns would have to be taken to show the jury attending this particular court case.
