Legal Question in Criminal Law in Minnesota

I was charged with 3rd criminal sexual conduct. I took a plea April 24 th, 2017 for 78 months in prison. I had sat 8 months trying to fight it and not end up in a prison term. I gave in because county attorney let me out for 30 days before I go to prison. The charge I have is not true. I need advice. I can't take back my plea or it could get worse. A lot of issues about this case dont make sense.

If you seek to withdraw your plea, there is no guarantee the Judge will allow it without a demonstration of a a manifesto injustice.
