You need to consult with an attorney who can review the details and explain your rights and options. You may or may not have a valid cause of action. You could also start by visiting the registrar's office and ask the clerk about the consequences of deliberately providing fraudulent information on an official form. It may or not constitute perjury.

What are the consequences of lying to the cops?
The question is too vague to answer as it stands. If someone else committed a crime, and you saw it, but lied to police about it, you could theoretically be charged with aiding and abetting or with hampering a police investigation. If you lied and said that someone committed a crime when they didn't, you can be charged with the crime of making a false report or something similar. Also, the person you accused can sue you in civil court. If you committed a crime but lied about it to the police... well, they kind of expect that most criminals are not going to admit to it; that's not generally considered an additional crime even though technically it would be hampering a police investigation. Lying in court on the witness stand is perjury. Penalties for perjury can be fairly severe.
