I was helpless then, I'm not so helpless now and that feels so damn good!!

 For those who haven't read my previous journal, click here. There is no hope...

This is an update on that as of yesterday evening, we finally have great news.

First, I'll start with another bad turn that took place. Yesterday morning, Robin and Mary Sue disappeared with the kids. We know they're in Fashion Valley but we have no idea where, no number that they will answer (violation of court order), no address (violation of court order), no e-mail (violation of court order), no contact whatsoever (violation of court order).

Mom went to the court house yesterday to speak with an attorney, find out what she needed to do now. Robin's attorney (or former attorney, I'm not sure if he was retained after the case closed on Tuesday or not) even approached Mom when he heard her talking to another attorney, told her what to do and seemed to genuinely regret getting that child molester custody.

Anyway, with the help of an attorney, Mom filled out and filed the paperwork regarding his denying her the court ordered visitation. While there, the attorney that was helping her, was also looking over the case and came across some rather astonishing and kind of hilarious information...

Mom and Robin are still technically married. Yep, you read that right. Mom is still technically married to that child molester, which makes him a bigamist and his marriage to Mary Sue is not legal. How did that happen? Well, from the files, the divorce was filed but never finalized. Funny how something as simple as signing a little piece of paper can really screw things up, right?

So, the attorney set them a court date for Tuesday at 1 30pm. The best part is that Robin gets slapped either way, lol. If he shows up, he gets slapped with the "non" dissolution of his marriage to Mom as well as with the court violations and forced to give Mom visitation. If he does not show up, he gets charged with abuction and violations of court order.

I also made some calls yesterday morning, I wanted information on my personal case. I just don't understand how he was found guilty but never prosecuted, never punished for his decisions and actions. I want to know what I can do about that, if anything, and how to proceed. I explained the whole situation, the whole case, to a lady that is assigning me to a sexual assault victim's advocate.

I'm smiling again, I'm feeling so much better. I even told Mom yesterday "I was helpless then, I'm not so helpless now and that feels so damn good!" Then I couldn't do anything, he was the only father I knew, the only father in my life, I was so powerless and helpless. I knew what he was doing to me was wrong but, at the same time, I didn't know it was wrong. I know that doesn't really make sense but that's the only way I can explain it.

NOW... Now I'm not so helples, now I can and will do something. And I feel so much better, I feel like I finally have some power back, some control over my life. It feels good.

Oh I am so happy at this turn of events. I will continue to pray that things progress to the point that his custody is completely revoked. When things seem hopeless is when God does his best work!
