Campaign Story
In December of 2009, I was a victim of abuse by a Gary, IN teacher. This same teacher allegedly lost her job and pension, yet to save face and dodge a law suit, my attack was inverted, and I was made to look like the attacker instead of the attacked. Since the school vouched for the teacher, even though they allegedly fired her, due to the principal having witnessed the attack, this gave the teacher a defense and cause to file suit against me civilly. I was immediately and unjustly arrested by an officer who doubled as school security, but I was never charged. I was humiliated by false news reported in the Merrillville, IN Post-Tribune, then that report went national in papers and tv. I have never responded publicly until now. I've been fighting this fight without representation, but now the judge has demanded that I have an attorney. I didn't want to handle this alone, yet it was my only choice. I can't afford an attorney, legal aid was not able to handle such a case, this case being a jury trial this coming December 2015, and I have had no success in my search for a pro bono attorney. I need help and fast. The judge recognizes my right to represent myself, but he doesn't want to see injustice occur due to me attempting to fight trained, experience lawyers by myself. This is continuous victimization for 5+ years that actually began with a horrifying, life changing injustice to my then 9yro son, by this same teacher, and others. It saddens me deeply still, and he's still dealing with the trauma. I have to, though concentrate on one struggle at a time, so I am appealing to the public, through the kindness of this forum for making it possible to address the nation for support. Though I do plan on making the truth publicly known at the proper time. Thank you.
