then what???????



Kick him in the nads and show him who's boss.;)

No wait, that's what my wife does...

On a serious note, start documenting everything and everytime he harasses you. You're gonna need it for the restraining order. Another thing, your friend could sue for getting his image tarnished. Nothing shuts 'em up faster than a lawsuit.

Don't anyone get any ideas on the post whores now...;)

Ive dealt with situations like this before, and I can give you some good advise. Im a police officer in Florida but the laws regarding domestic situations are pretty much the same in most states. The next time he contacts you in a threatening manner, first thing you need to do is contact your local law enforcement agency, dont ask, DEMAND, an information report be completed. There are alot of lazy cops out there who will give you a million reasons why you dont need a report completed, dont buy it. if they refuse to do the report call their supervisor. The next day, that day if possible, go to the court house and get a restraining order against him, a restraining order may be called a no contact order or a protection order where you are, but you get the point. Does he have visitation with youre child, if so, request the judge to modify the visitations, make them supervised (if you feel he may try to keep the baby as a form of retalation for the restraining order) EVERY TIME he violates the restraining order you need to contact the police and have another report completed, if they will let you (and they should) tell them you want to complete a complaint affidavit against him once the affidavit is signed the state can/will seek a warrant for his arrest. I have seen on many cases when the threats escalate to acts of violence because they were allowed to continue. Do SOMETHING to protect yourself and your child. Chances are the situation will not take care of its self if you need anymore sugestions PM me Ill give you what advise I can.

ok....I agree with that suppose we meet half way then what???????



Sorry Becky, there can be no "meeting half way". If he is defaming the character of a friend, and implicating your family and children as being victim to criminal activity, then not only a restraining order, but a cease and desist order as well. He's making a very serious accusation, and has opened the door for criminal charges against him if I'm not mistaken.

I don't know how true it is that taping a conversation without the other party knowing is insubmissible in court.

But ONE thing I do know is that it is still up to the judge to let you submit it as evidence. I mean how else are you going to document verbal abuse?:S

Edit:
One other thing, carry a tape recorder yourself. And Radio Shack sells one of them gizmos that plugs into your phone line. Hey if he's gonna play dirty, collect his dirt and throw it back when you've got a dump truck full.

totally get some type of police report on his behavior. I'm talking anything at all that makes you feel threatened, get that report. Once you have that go to your friendly county courthouse and file an ex parte (sp?) Once you have that then any time he's in violation of the ex parte, read too close to you, you can have him arrested. It's totally up to you at that point in time, he doesn't have to get arrested.
Anyway, the MOST important thing you can do is to start building a record of police reports on him. Literally every time you think there may be reason call the cops in. The more record of his actions they have the better off you'll be.

Hey Becky,

I'm a cop too, in illinois 16+ years in law enforcement. I don't know the laws in Tennessee but state-to-state I do know they can vary GREATLY!

Call your lawyer, if you are receiving this intimadation over the telephone call your local police. A simple harassment by telepone report should do. Lazy cops or not its on file (I have gotten these 'your' types of cases rocketed through the system by using a back-door technique such as this). If for example they come via the mail U.S. or e- / (really stupid!!) save it all!!!!

Another thing, if you were allegedly resposible for supervising your daughter during the alleged perpetrations, yes, its a shit-pie. Remember there has to be some sort of evidence, testimonial, physical, etc... so go take a flying F&^%$K in other words... "prove it you @ss!"

I have been involved in several cases (formally as the Commader of the Investigations bureau),,, sadly to say... where the last thing anyone wanted to believe was what happened! ...shaken baby twice, boyfriends/uncles/babysitters more than I care to remember...of course you have a right to feel frightened.

The system also recogognizes that these are all too frequent and common false and malicious claims initiated by a former spouse. You have that in your favor.

If you do anything, do not escalate the situation... I mean do not retaliate! He's a fuck for putting you in this situation and it's a high-cost scenario, both monetarily and emotionally!! Don't be the loser, get a lawyer!!!

Of course there are many other concerns, but I'll keep it to that for now!

If you can let her discover for herself, preferably because she has contact with him, that's probably one of the best gifts you can give her. The gift of letting her make up her own mind in a question that's extremely important to her.

If abuse of her comes into the question, obviously, it's different. Good luck regardless -- this sounds ugly, and you've been getting a lot of good advice.

Becky,

I wish I could help. I haven't the words to tell you what children mean to me. All I can say is your child doesn't deserve this. Bless you, Becky, and I hope it all works out. Keep us informed - cause we care.
