  • It is what it is. I wouldn’t change what I did regardless so it doesn’t matter. At least I still have hope things will go in my favor but my mom and I have lost at every step so far.

    You are right about it changing me though. I have already felt it and I’m just getting started in this process. The hardest part is reminding myself I’m not guilty. It’s easy to fall into the guilty mindset when everyone around me is telling me I’m a monster. Except my family and friends who were there of course. They keep me sane. But everyone in the legal system assumes I’m guilty.



  • That’s a good read. I’m involved in a court case that could end up with me going to prison. I have multiple stem degrees, I worked for the intelligence community for a while. I have peer reviewed science articles published, and yet all anyone seems to see is that I’m muscular and have martial arts experience so obviously I beat up the other guy. Realistically I just pulled him off of my mom, but he played up (or faked altogether) his injuries and now here we are.

    I’m sorry you have gone through this. I’m definitely more sympathetic towards stories like this now that I might be telling my own someday.
