I had one of the messiest divorce cases in my county. I wanted equal time joint custody long before that was a known or commonly accepted option. She, the Ex-, used her considerable charms and tears, and initially got everything she wanted, and I got almost nothing. Almost immediately, she started using me, a supposed child abuser and child molester, as an almost daily baby sitter and several overnights. I eventually was able to prove an extensive pattern of lying by my Ex. Both the court appointed psychologist and court counselor totally flipped. I won total custody at a time when males had zero chance of having primary custody (tender years doctrine). She then kidnapped our toddler daughter and disappeared for nine months. After I finally obtained physical custody, the court bent over backwards protecting mom’s rights, ordering the Probation Department to investigating me. The daughter had only two temper tantrums with me. Of course, one started just as the Probation officer rang the doorbell. After letting the officer in, I picked the toddler daughter up, asked her to take a nap, and promised we would make things right when she woke up. She woke up about 40 minutes later wanting lots of hugs, but could not remember why she was angry. After four meetings, the probation officers wrote that up as handling discipline with a firm hand.
My Ex reported me to CPS for child abuse multiple times and to the FBI as the Unibomber and maybe got neighbors to also make false reports. I always cooperated with investigators and always came out clean. I think during the CPS first visit, I was explaining the custody conflict history while the daughter was happily singing to herself a few feet away while swinging on the swing hanging from the living room ceiling. I asked her to put her swimming suit (bikini style) on which she happily did; not a scratch anywhere. The Ex-‘s baseless accusations only stopped when the judge threatened her jail time for contempt. Knowing what I know now, I would probably still let the investigators in, but would insist on video recording everything for everybody’s safety.
I was assaulted annually for about a decade by the Ex-. She was of equal size, weight, and strength. She often used weapons (pogo stick, baseball bat.) I reported every incident to the police and to the courts. Several times the police took confirming photos of sizable fresh bruises. The DA and the court repeatedly did nothing. When our daughter was in the third grade, I asked her where she would like to live if something were to happen to me. Her two choices did not include Mom. I figured the best witness to her choices and reasoning would be the court counselor. The counselor apparent asked about her relations to her Mother. She told about a fight she had with her mother on the school grounds several months earlier. At the next court hearing, the judge on his own initiative issued a permanent restraining order. Several months later, the Ex- came by, wanting to borrow some money. She had stopped payment on prior checks, so I refused to loan her any more money and went back to work. She kicked me in the genitals. I landed on the ground in a fetal position and was wiped out for nearly two weeks. The DA finally took action and the court issued an warrant, but dropped the warrant in less than a year. The Ex- was never inconvenienced for any of her antics at any point. The daughter has wanted nothing to do with her mother for over thirty years now.

What happens when your spouse is likely a covert narcissist and has been lying about your relationship for an entire year and many people have caught her in her lies? Can that information be found in a deposition and used to discredit the witness in court?

Can a Victim Obtain the Arrest report as well as an amended report because the PD chose to leave out information on Purpose from the Judge to be able to have the entire statement for the judge to have all the information to make their judgment ?? I am the victim- and ai demand to see the so called “correction” report to see if my statements where corrected and altho I saw the 1st wrong copy they will not release the 2nd so called corrected one. Are there any laws (policies from what I understand mot not trump laws) - however they are using the excuse to say its a report active in the courts and would need to redact information of others but these are all mu personal statements..//// its clear they messed up on the 1st report - i demand to know what they chose to write into the 2nd and getting no where…/ any insight ? Altho i am in CT
