i looked at the statue of limitations, and the way that i take
it, i can still press charges. but, evry lawyer, and cop says
that its to late.
heres what has happened.....
My fiancee and I have been harassed and stalked by his
ex-girlfriend who he has 2 children with, since June 2004. she
would follow us to
the bar ( in mt. pleasant), to Walmart (in mt. pleasant), our
jobs (
all 3 jobs in mt. pleasant), and also to my parents house (in
alverton
(where at the time we both lived)). she had always threatened to
take his
children away, so for the longest time we did nothing, and just
refused
to go anywhere. she has threatened us on several occasions that
she had
people after us, and to watch our backs. i have been terrified,
and
extremely paranoid to even go into my backyard since she has
been seen
sitting by my house (up to 200 yards away, and as close as 60
feet to my
home). from her place of residence to all the places listed
above is
about a 45 min. drive out of her way.
when he had moved in my parents house he had to leave some
of his
possessions at a friends house. his ex later went in and took
his TV,
and placed it in her house. at the same time his TV was taken,
DVDs, and
clothes came up missing also (never found).
She has also sent multiple gifts by this time for him.
She had went on vacation to Ocean City MD, and had called
our
house (in alverton PA, on June 15th 2005) and stated that her
house had
been broken into, and that my fiancee was to blame. she then
said that she
had called the state police and they would be there to question
us.
they never showed, and there was no report of a break in.
On July 26 2005, she had come to pick up my fiancee to
visit his
girls (she showed up with 2 car loads of people, which had me
frightened) while they went on a quick trip to Walmart (mt.
pleasant pa). when
they had left Walmart, instead of bringing him home
as "planned", she
made a quick turn, and took him to mammoth park (pa), and
refused to bring
him home (is this kidnapping?). he had to find his own way back.
She
had also told the both of us that she was doing all that she
could to
keep him away from his daughters.
On July 5 2005, she had filed a PFA on my fiancee. (court
hearing
was July 11 2005) we were denied counsel, and weren't allowed to
defend
our-selves, and had lost the case. the PFA is effect until
January 11
2007. (we had tried to get a PFA on her previous to this, but
were
laughed at and turned away)
We have contacted the state police July 8th 2005, and gave
our
statement. the officer that we had spoken to had told us that if
any of
this continues to give him a call, and she would be arrested
(that it was
a type of "stay away order"). She started the harassing phone
calls,
and sending cards to my fiancee in August 2005 - November 2005.
we
called the police, and they said that there is nothing that they
can do.
(the officer that we had spoken with July 8 2005 no longer works
with
them.) they said to get a PFA on her.
At the custody hearing (August 24 2005) we had been granted
supervised visits. we just recently started them Feb. 7, 2005,
and are now
afraid that everything is going to start up again. the PFA only
keeps him
away from her, she can still do what she wants.
We have about 8 witnesses (total) to these accounts. we
don't have
money for a lawyer. what can be done if anything? how long do we
have
to do anything about this before its to late? are there any
other riminal acts in these incidents?
