Well, we had our sixth, yes sixth non hearing/hearing this morning on the Motion to Revoke Probation, Patricia’s probation filed by the State back in September of 2007. Friday will mark Patricia’s ninth month since her arrest for alleged probation violations as outlined by the State.

 

            It is a little tough on the kids, but I imagine it is tougher on Patricia.

        

The truth guys, is why bother? To be less then kind, our conflict over the years arose out of your refusal to acknowledge the extent of Patricia’s mental illness. You caught up with me and we now share the next problem – how to do deal with Patricia’s illness to insure the safety of my family and society as a whole. << MORE >>

Hundreds of thousands pay for their failure to answer this question with hospitalization, psychological damage, or even their lives. Relationships are the leading source of murder in this country. << MORE >>

There is nothing positive about an ICU baby except for those that go home. I visited my daughter three times a day: before work, during lunch, and after work. Each time I scrubbed and put on hospital gowns. By the time Jessica got out my hands were bloody and raw from the scrubbing. I remember they shaved her head to put an IV in and I remember how silly she looked in the incubator. At twenty plus inches and over six pounds, she appeared twice the size of the other children in ICU. << MORE >>

            I wish to extend my appreciation to the 2^nd Judicial District Attorney’s office for once again failing to follow the law and keeping us informed of hearings relevant to our case in accordance with the Victims Rights Act as noticed in our case in February of 2004.

 

            For the third time this year, we ventured downtown and unto the fifth floor of the courthouse only to be told that the State had not even begun Patricia’s competency evaluation.  We are rescheduled for the fourth time this year – 8:30 am on April 23^rd, 2008.

 

I also note someone went on this blog and printed every single blog. Be and sure and email me with any questions. I imagine it is the evaluator and not some Hollywood star who realizes she could win an Oscar playing Patricia.

        

I remember calling my parents and letting them know. I do not remember when I told Jessica and Montie. I do remember wondering what Judge Jewell would say about telling them. Time and time again, Judge Jewell and Zieman lectured me about telling the kids too much, as we were suppose to keep all adult issues away from the children. Not that I really cared what Judge Jewell said. All said and done, now more then ever, I was responsible for raising my children, not the Court or mental health professionals. << MORE >>

Yates had drowned her children a few weeks earlier in Texas and you can imagine my nightmares. Now remember how easy it is to picture my concerns after everything you learned about Patricia through the new stories or my writing. It is a great deal easier today to convince people about Patricia’s mental health and the danger she posed. Imagine what it was like in 2002 when no one believed me, no one except the children and my family. Makes the nightmares a little worse. << MORE >>

You do not need my forgiveness Patricia or the children’s forgiveness to start a new life. You only need to act differently then you have. << MORE >>

"One point that I hammer the DA with is the truth that Patricia's mental illness, while present during our marriage, did not reach this extent until the state became involved," he said. "First, through the divorce courts and later through the criminal justice system." << MORE >>
