Did this happen in Ontario? In Ontario, Police are mandated to lay charges in regards to Domesitc Violence based on reasonalbe and probable ground.

In this case, it sounded like two independent witnesses provided statements to the Police, which could be sufficient for the Police to form their reasonalbe and probable grounds. You hu*****and also provided statement to the Police. If your hu*****and provided such statement after him being cautioned and provided his rights to counsel, then the statement could also be admitted to the court as evidence.

If you hu*****and has no previous criminal records, is a productive member of the society or the seriousness of your injuries is minor. The court may consider a plea bargain prior to trial.

Your hu*****and's best option is to seek qualified legal representation provided by a member of the bar. It is crucial for him to hire a criminal lawyer not those lawyers who retain any clients that can pay him or her. Criminal Law is very specialized and has different rules and case law here in Canada.

There is one more thing that is also very important for you and your hu*****and. Your hu*****and in currently on bail according to your post. I believe not having direct and in-direct communication with you are part of his bail conditions. DON'T contact him or LET him contact you. DON'T try to contact him through your mutual friends or family member. DON'T discuss the case with him.

If the case goes to trial, SAY WHAT IS TRUE or you will be perjured and could be criminally charged.
