Honey....I’m hommme!

This idiot...crashes his car into his ex-wife’s house.  Now, I do feel really bad that she was actually injured and I do hope that she recovers fully, and quickly!  But, what an ass!  How in the world can someone explain being so mad, angry, hurt, etc....that they would wreck their own freakin’ car and risk injuring them self in the process....not to mention the cost of the house...well I do hope for her sake she was well insured, at least.  I am glad that she got away from him to begin with and that he was unsuccessful in claiming her life with this stupidity, but this just goes to prove that abusers will stop at nothing!!

Aggravated assault my ass....sounds more like attempted murder to me, why else ram your car into her house unless you planned to kill her, or you are stupid; and in this case maybe BOTH!  I have always found it funny that they call it ‘aggravated’ assault...of course people are aggravated by assault!  Lets look at what Wikipedia says about it:

Aggravated assault is usually differentiated from simple assault by the offender's intent (i.e., to murder, to rape etc.), the extent of the injury to the victim, or the use of a deadly weapon, although legal definitions vary between jurisdictions. For example, North Carolina has the offense of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious bodily injury.^[7] The aggravating elements are clearly spelled out in the name of the crime.

I like that...the ‘aggravating’ elements are clearly spelled out...I still say that all assault is aggravating, but hey if putting that word in front of it will make people like this idiot get longer sentences for doing shit like this to other people...then they can use whatever word they want to!

Without the rape kit being done the rapist will not be charged or convicted, so the victim must get the kit done! Then months later they are being raped again by a broken system. Read this account of what has happened to one victim. If this is one there are more that either are afraid to come forward and re-live the horror of what happened or they don't KNOW they are not responsible for these bills!

Rape Victim Billed For Evidence Costs
By Stephen Dean

UPDATED: 4:35 pm CDT May 8, 2009
HOUSTON -- Victims of sexual assault are getting bills, rejection letters and pushy calls from bill collectors while a state crime victims' fund sits full of cash, Local 2 Investigates reported Thursday.

WATCH IT: Why Did Sex Assault Victim Get Billed?

"I'm the victim, and yet here I am. I'm asked to pay this bill and my credit's going to get hurt," said a single mom from Houston.

She received bills marked, "delinquent," after she visited a hospital where police told her to have evidence gathered. Officers assured her she would not pay a dime for that rape kit to be handled.

"That was unreal," she said. "I never thought I'd be out anything for what I went through."

She was 44 years old when she was attacked in her own bed. She said she awoke to find a burly 15-year-old friend of her son assaulting her. He was found delinquent, meaning he was convicted, in juvenile court, thanks in part to the evidence gathered with the rape kit.

"It is set up legislatively so that the criminal justice system pays for whatever evidence collection occurs," said Kelly Young, with the Houston Area Women's Center, a rape crisis facility.

Police departments are reimbursed for up to $700 by the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Fund, but many departments cover the bills if they exceed that.

After that happens, victims can apply for other costs associated with the rape kit hospital visits to be covered by the fund.

The Houston Police Department made one payment toward the single mother's hospital bill, but when she submitted the $1,847 worth of remaining bills to the Crime Victims' Compensation Fund, she received a denial letter, telling her that law enforcement should have paid.

"She's getting the run-around," said Young at the rape crisis center, which was not involved in her case.

"There may be lots of survivors who have this happen and we don't know because they don't know that they shouldn't be getting the bills," she said.

"A lot of people aren't going to ask. They're just going to go ahead and pay it and move forward with their lives. They don't want to keep re-living that experience," said Young.

Texas State Comptroller's office figures show the fund has tens of millions of dollars left over at the end of each year.

In September 2006, the balance was $67,058,646 and one year later, the balance was $57,669,432.

In 2008, that figure was up again to $66,572,261 that was left unspent in the fund.

Attorney General's spokesman Jerry Strickland said the crime victim fund is enforcing strict guidelines imposed by the legislature as to which bills are paid and which victims are sent a denial notice.

Otherwise, he said that fund could become "insolvent."

He said state law is clear that crime victims must exhaust all other potential funding sources, such as local police or their own health insurance.

"The legislature set it up that way," said Strickland.

When asked for a number of how many denial letters had been sent out to Texas rape victims in the past, Strickland did not have an answer after checking with his crime victims' compensation office workers.

He said the attorney general's office constantly trains hospitals and health care providers on how to help victims in getting reimbursed for their expenses.

Health care workers and rape crisis counselors told Local 2 Investigates that victims have come forward with denial letters for varying reasons, such as police listing the case as inactive, paperwork being filed incorrectly, or expenses falling into the wrong category.

Young, the advocate at Houston Area Women's Center said, "They're not dotting the Is and crossing the Ts to make sure that the person who was victimized does not have to re-live it six months later because they get a bill."

When Local 2 Investigates contacted the hospital where the single mother had her rape kit performed, hospital leaders quickly canceled her bill when they found out the state would not be paying the charges She now owes nothing.

She said she's amazed it happened to begin with, adding, "I don't look very kindly to them. I mean, I would expect that they would have had a little more feeling for me and they didn't."

Child Abuse Profiteering Ring Exposed

Just who is in this child abuse profiteering ring, you ask? Well, welcome to the Family Court system!

Please read this ARTICLE, then comment on it. It is long, and it will turn your stomach with what some of it says. But this crap is being spewed by many and is harming the children of the US (well and other countries as well!).

The article discusses:

Those people who profiteer from covering up child abuse by accusing the victims of having a fictitious syndrome called Parental Alienation, are opposing good legislation in AB 612. This bill would protect children who are witnesses of domestic violence and victims of physical and sexual abuse from being re-victimized in court by being falsely accused of the fictitious syndrome (similar to witchcraft accusations, there is no proof, just saying so proclaims it so).

There are quotes from Richard Gardner (these are what I warned would turn your stomach), who was the father of the Parental Alienation Syndrome to begin with. If you have never heard of this term being used in Family Court then I suggest you read this article, pay very close attention to what it is saying!

I also ask that you pass this on to others that may not know about this! It will save lives, kids lives!
