I Am a Survivor of Domestic Violence

On July 6th 2016 I was arrested for domestic violence against my then wife. At the time of my arrest my wife was 60 miles away at her job. I know because I dropped her off. Both arresting officers never saw her until the next day. I was arrested at home after her phone call to the sheriff's dept in the town where we lived. 6 days later I appear in court. Im still in custody and cant bailout because I have nowhere to go. There is now a restraining order that bars me from going home. I was accused of beating her in the face and head with two shotguns. And,shooting at her from two feet away with both guns at point blank range. She doesn't own body armor either. So multiple times she appears in court with not a scar, bruise, or stitch on her body. Obviously, not shot from point blank range. There is no medical report or pictures to verify this story. While in custody she files for divorce. That means there is an injunction to not remove any property. Thankfully the land and house are NOT community property in the state in which I live. One of the officers admitted on video recording that he knows she lied. I've been in custody six months now. At the second divorce hearing the judge orders her to vacate my home, which she does a month later. I bailout of jail. When I get home, I immediately see that something is wrong. Solar panels are not on the hill near my house. When I enter my house, the damage is indescribable! I called sheriff's dept. They come and video tape the house interior. I submitted 100's of before pictures. When I say she took EVERYTHING I mean just that. The walls had multiple holes and wiring pulled out and cut. All of the plumbing was broken in the house and under the house. At the final divorce hearing in February of this year(2017) I brought this all up. She admitted to destroying the house and stealing everything. $20k in actual damage to the home, and the theft of $65k in artwork and musical instruments. Nope...insurance wasn't paid. I was in jail. The sheriff's dept charged her FIVE times because DA kept losing paper work or whatever. Then finally in May the DA says sue her its a civil matter WTF! Long story short....3 days before my trial the judge dismisses my case for repeated violations of my constitutional rights. She walks free. My lawyers private investigator found out before my trial that I was the 5th husband she has done this too. I thought I was husband number two. Not only that. Two of the husbands lived in different countries. So...I sued the DA and two arresting officers. This case went all the way to the state Supreme Court where I live. I lost. WTF!!!
The reason: the defendants stated they did not INTENTIONALLY violate my rights. Complete immunity for saying THAT. I get a call last Monday from a lawyer who has been handling a case in court for me that is in probate. 18 years! It is finally over. The slaveowner who owned my great-grandfather gave him 4000 acres of farmland in 1873. It passed from oldest son to oldest son. 38 of my cousin's protested and settled for $5000 each. The farm has been up and running over 80 years. On January 3rd 2018 the property will be signed over to me, along with 20 million dollars. I have since done most of the repairs to the house my ex-wife damaged. I have donated it to a womans organization for abused women.

Omg! I despise that some people are THIS level of crazy AND get away with it. Didn’t anyone succeed against her? Can’t she be branded for life what she did was CRIMINAL!!!!!!!! And unjust!!!!!!
@Mindful Karma repaid her. She now lives in one room shack on the side of the road. None of her husband's were able to recoup anything. She is an outcast in the community after they found out. I had real friends there. God bless her.

You are too kind. It boggles my mind! How can she?! Not only how dare she, but... how?@RenaissanceMan
@Mindful not to sound biased or unfair but after travelling to many countries I have found that women from that part of Europe particularly from Ukraine and Russia have frozen hearts in general.

Ahhhhh Okay now that explains it. That part of Europe has abused /exploited women for thousands of years. And felt sorry for them at the same time :-( And women have given in to their need to survive[, it doesn’t excuse but explains.@RenaissanceMan]
@Mindful The men are hard on women there. Very dominating. However, like you said it doesn't excuse that type of behavior. I'm doing very well now. What she took is a drop in the bucket in comparison to what I gained. The ability to prosper so much that I have the ability to help many others on a daily basis. My plan this summer is to have a few benefit concerts for charities here at my estate. If you're familiar with Texas, I sit right on Lake Sam Rayburn. I have a friend who lives in the West wing of the home who has invested in the property who also has the same idea.
When you have more than you need I believe it must be shared.

Thank you. And it’s good that I don’t have too—so I’m not worried about you.I was just incensed and was railing against a wrong-doer. I’m so glad you came out okay, and leased that you are able to turn this around to help others. My concern is that she might be able to deceive another. Is she at all repentant? If it bothers you to think about it, please don’t. I’m a student of humanity. Re: Rayburn, yes a very lovely place. Your story is an interesting one. I’m curious about it...the property I was looking at was in Garland. We’re losing native land to investers . Bitter-sweet kind of thing@RenaissanceMan
