On August 28, 2012, as I sat in the parking lot of the Camden, Delaware Texas
Roadhouse getting ready to go inside for supper, a law enforcement officer
suddenly appeared at my window screaming out commands that I get out of my
vehicle. As I complied, another officer
pointed his gun at me screaming "hands up;" another one grabbed me,
pushed me against my vehicle, and handcuffed me. I was then thrown into the
back of the car, taunted, transported to Delaware State Police (Troop 3), shoes
taken, belt taken, placed in a holding cell and held for just short of two
hours. Why was this happening you might ask?
According to official police reports - my ex wife had taken a
sharp object, scratched herself with it, used a blue eye liner to write threats
and my name on her body, drive off the side of a road, strip down to her
underwear, lay in a ditch face down until a passerby stopped. She would
fabricate a story that I attacked her and left her for dead.
It gets better.....previously, over a period of three weeks
on three different occasions - August 13, 19,
and 24, she would write three terroristic notes, placing them on her
front door and on her car windshield, constructing them as if they were from
me, including writing my name on them.
I would be arrested for the writing of those terroristic
notes and be forced to wear a GPS Ankle Bracelet.
Ironically, it would be the GPS Ankle Bracelet that would
vindicate me (and her unbelievably ridiculous attempt to frame me). The
tracking device showed me miles away from the demented damsel in distress -
vindicating me and ultimately proving she fabricated in great detail the entire
event.
On September 1, 2012 she would be arrested for the filing of
false police reports and lying to police.
So in the midst of the current "Guilty until Proven
Innocent" craze, where we are told that a woman's allegation of domestic violence
should transcend due process, I take great issue from a very personal level
with this perversion of what our founding fathers' intent was for those accused
of a crime.
By the standards of the current DV Lynch Mob, I would have
spent years in a prison cell.
False Allegations has become a cottage industry fueled by the
behemoth Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) that creates financial incentive for
allegations of Domestic Violence.
This great pendulum swing not only destroys innocent lives,
but also makes a mockery of true victims of domestic violence.
I stand with and applaud President Trump for his much
maligned tweet:
"Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a
mere allegation. Some are true and some are false, Some are old and some are
new. There is no recovery for someone falsely accused - life and career are
gone. Is there no such thing any longer as Due Process?"
