Glad to see some sanity. I spent 6 months in jail, in maximum security, for a crime I had not committed + 5 years probation. My teenagers ran away from their abusive father (a pedophile), using their own car. Although I was 500 miles away at the time, I was accused of having gone to where they were and physically kidnap them. I had 40 witnesses: none would have been allowed to testify during the trial, and "how did the children go from point A to point B" was considered irrelevant. 5 years on probation and now,18 years later, I am still a felon for "child stealing." That does not make life easy.

The more I learn the more I feel this system of justice is a system of coercion and fear, in fact the tyranny and corruption runs through the entire government. I’m sorry for what they did to you Danielle!! I fear what happened to you can happen to all of us.

It did open my eyes to corruption. Later on, I had a client who spent 1 year in jail for talking about her 3 daughters having been molested. I co-hosted a support group for victims of legal abuse: family matters, elder abuse, wrongful termination, HOA, probate. It's everywhere.
