Consider yourself fortunate.
Years ago my wife was involved in a minor car accident - she got rear-ended by a guy in a pickup truck at a stop sign while on her way to work. The jerk drove off (probably impaired at the time). Fortunately she got the guy's plate number.
She called the cops to report the accident - gave them all the information. They went to the guy's house and he claimed she'd put the car in reverse (at the stop sign) and backed in to him. Total bullshit, of course.
The (young) cop came to our door - told us what the guy had said - and then accused my wife of lying. "You likely made up the story because you thought your husband would be angry with you for being in an accident," he said. He said this in front of both of us.
I know my wife - and totally believed her story. She had no reason to lie. I told the cop there was no way she was lying...but he wouldn't listen. After a few minutes I'd had enough and told him to "get the fuck out of my house," - and booted him out the door.
