It was Valentine's Day and I was at work. He was about 3 weeks away from getting out of the HWH he was in. Well apparatnly his counselor went and found reasons to send half her inmates of to prison. My LO was sent for filing unemployment she didn't know about. His employer had given him permission since the work he was having him do wasn't technically for their business. He was paying him half his wages in cash doing little things to keep him working. I'm not saying what he did was right, but what do they expect them to do? If he wasn't filing how would he have made his mortgage payment and still given them $27/day to be there? How was he supposed to privide for his son? Of course they only care about getting their money. I still can't believe they didn't just give him a major write-up. It's not like he robbed a bank. He had unreported income. Still irks me. But I'm crossing my fingers he makes parole in June! I miss my baby!

I was at home waiting for him to come home from work. His co-worker/our roommate came and told me he was in jail. My heart literally broke, because I knew he wasn't coming home anytime soon. I miss him so much its a physical ache. I just keep telling myself its not forever and he will be home soon.

He was remanded as soon as the jury passed the verdict of guilty. Before the trial that morning, we were on our knees together in a consultation room, holding each other and praying. Then when the judge revoked his bond and remanded him to custody for a month to await sentencing, he almost passed out. I was with a large group of people, mostly family but some friends who all gasped and some started sobbing. They took his cowboy hat and wallet and cuffed him and led him away on Feb 23. He hasn't seen the light of day since then. Then, I saw him again in court for his sentencing. He was in chains and couldn't turn around to see any of us. It was utterly devastating. Then, I saw him again 2 days ago to face another court for violating his probation because of this latest charge. He was sentenced to another 3 years consecutive and not concurrent. He said, "just shoot me judge." And then they hauled him off. I was in shock and numb and filled with intense sorrow. Later, I heard they'd put him on suicide watch which means they stripped him naked, through him in a padded cell without a blanket a pillow or food for 24 hours.

The newest charges are DV related. He was falsely accused by his now ex-wife who caught him emailing a woman he'd met online. She knew he'd been on probation for a previous DV charge from his first wife and used that to falsely accuse him and destroy his life. The court doesn't seek out the truth, the court only looks at the record. And in DV cases they don't look for proof, they just believe whatever the "victim" says.

I remember like it was yesterday. Feb 26, 2007 he starting packing that night, so I thought like always he was going to see his sister. That morning I got up and got ready to go to school and something told me to stop him from leaving. I was going to tell him lets just stay in bed all day, but my pride and anger would not allow me to talk to him (oh how I regret it now). Well March 2, 2007 It was a rainy day and felt him leave me. I called his cellphone the exact time he was arrested, no on answered. I was instruct to look at the newspaper and that was when I crashed. I have been with this man since I was 18 and I am 42. We have never been apart this long.

LindiLLou · #32 04-20-2012, 04:36 PM

We knew there was going to be an indictment. So, he made arrangements, in advance through his attorney, to turn himself in when the indictment was handed down. We knew there would be a bail hearing really quick and had an idea about the amount so we got that set up. Sort of uneventful. I don't know how I would have held up if I went through what most of you have been through. I admire your strength.

I was right beside him when he got locked up (i got locked up w/ him) we were surrounded & blocked off on the freeway & ordered to get out of the car. I felt so sick in the stomach seeing them put cuffs on him & I can only imagine how he felt seeing me being cuffed up too. They let us ride in the back of the same squat car together which was surprising to me. Fighting through the tears I looked at him forcing a smile & I told him that everything is gonna be ok

b/c I knew he was really worried about me & in a way I wanted to believe it myself. Tears began to fall from his eyes & that made me weak. Thats the first time in our 2yrs of being together that i've ever seen him cry. I was kinda relieved that it was all over b/c he didnt have to run anymore. I love & miss him so much

skiylazdaddy · #35 04-21-2012, 05:25 PM

I was sitting at the Ronald mcdonald house getting ready to Go across the street to see our sick daughter in the NICU.. she had her third surgery the day before... He was supossed to be out lookin for a job.... As i was getting ready to leave the couple i was goin to walk to the hospital stopped me... They said hey there are Three undercover cops lookin for you at the front desk... It scared the hell outta me.... They took me into the office informed me that my fiance and his buddy were in custody and that i needed to answer some questions .... I was interviewed for 4 hours.. they told me that DPSS was with my daughter and that if i didnt tell them what my fiance has been up to i wouldnt see my daughter again... I told them i didnt know anything except that he was OUT looking for work everyday while i was at the hospital with our daughter... they said there is no way A woman can be with a man close to five years and not know hes breaking the law... The only reason im able to sit here and rght this.. is because the nursing staff and drs verified i was at my daughters bedside everyday since she was born.... She was two months old when he was taken from us..... I miss him like crazy.... I was scared and alone.. plus dealing with our daughters health issues... SORRY SO LONG... Just realized ive never written it out before...

missinmrreyna · #36 04-21-2012, 05:50 PM

I was sitting in the courtroom along with our two sons. We all said what we needed to and then the judge threw the book at him. Makes me cry talking about it. Feels like the first day all over again ):

D's lady · #37 04-21-2012, 06:42 PM

They came to my house...I sent them away....they came back later...by then my guy hid out. They came in with guns out...my two kids and nephew were crying...they searched everywhere and tore my room apart. They left and my man came back and said bye to our kids and I took him in. That was December 7

dalesgirl · #38 04-21-2012, 06:49 PM

For the original crime, yes. It was nothing like TV. The cops (detectives not uniform) came in and told us they had a warrant. Read him his rights. Covered his handcuffs with his coat as my kids were coming home from school. I felt like I'd been punched in the gut and wanted to scream. I hated how civilized it was when it felt like the end of the world for me. We knew it was coming but it didn't made it any easier. Even though he had confessed to me, it took me awhile to come to terms with what he had done. We only made it three years that time.

JTJwife · #39 04-23-2012, 09:19 PM

On a rainy Tuesday morning hubby got pulled over for speeding. When his license was ran thru NCIC...well, the rest is history. The officer told my hubby the only reason they ran NCIC was because he was in another state. Hubby called me. The people there were nice. They let hubby and me talk until the battery on his cellphone was dead.

Sure was, i was there when he did what he did and when they put the cuffs on him, they did let him give me a kiss and a hug bye. Then he got out on bail and was out on bail for 2yrs and then was there by his side in the court room when they took him away in cuffs yet again for a bench warrant and he was in for 3 mths on that got his sentence on his original case and got out for two weeks before having to turn himself in to start his sentence and i took him in and watched him walk through those doors knowing he wouldnt be coming back home with me for a looooong time and that one i think was the hardest time.

bashndead5150 · #41 06-08-2012, 09:24 PM

He called me in the car speed chase and said im sorry babe if I dont make it through this I love you I couldn't stop cryin

GuerosMama · #42 06-08-2012, 09:40 PM

I wasn't there, but I got a phone call immediately after it all happened. He was running and told me: "baby I am so sorry, I love you" I knew it was going to come to that at some point, and I was sad, but I was happy that he chose to call me, and that I didnt have to hear it from someone else.

Mz.Mo · #43 06-08-2012, 10:07 PM

I got a phone call at work after he went to court for something else saying" they keeping bay bay" Instant heart ache and pain worst day of my life!

cranabanana · #44 06-08-2012, 10:12 PM

I was in court the morning he took his plea, and I just remember all the boy's families sobbing. ( He was charged in a group) They wouldn't let me kiss him goodbye, and I stood there sobbing while he looked for me.

cowen1 · #45 06-08-2012, 10:17 PM

I have been there for all of the times but the first & most recent were the hardest! But, yes...back in April when he was arrested, I was there. I thought I was going with him because I went with him the first time. I will NEVER forget the way he looked at me as I drove off. I miss him so much & would give ANYTHING just to kiss him right now.

Tookie1132 · #46 06-08-2012, 10:42 PM

I was not there. I came home from work and he wasn't there but his car, phone, and wallet were. I thought that was really odd. Then I found a wet towel on the bed and I knew that he would NEVER do that. I knew what had happened as he had a warrant out on him, but we had been living together for 4 years, with no problems. He just didn't get a drivers license when his expired, worked at a job that had no background check, I had all the bills in my name. We knew this day might come but it was still a surprise. While I was still searching all around the house I got a phone call from the jail and I KNEW for sure then. I got lucky and was able to visit him that night. I found out that he heard the door, looked out the window and saw who it was and then jumped into the shower. I guess to give a good reason for not answering the door? That is how the wet towel got onto the bed.

mrs.cervantes19 · #47 06-08-2012, 11:41 PM

In his room , and i seriously felt like they took my other half "/

KatieM. · #48 06-09-2012, 06:32 AM

I felt like I had to throw up and I really wanted to cry but it hurt too bad for the tears to come.

**Nieves915** · #49 06-09-2012, 06:51 AM

Which time,,, i was with him the last three times. the first time we were going to get something to drink, i told him go left cuz going right was too risky, He was on the run, he went right,, and bam state trooper,, stopped, handcuffed him, almost tassed him and almost arrested me,,, second time, they came to my job, threatened my job, my child, and my freedom, they had been watching him for over a month, they knew he was there, i tried really hard to lie, but when they spun me around and began to handcuff me i said okay,,,,, i love my husband, but i cant risk my job, my child, my freedon,,, the third time he came to pick me up from work, we were walking out and i fogot the cookies, i said hold on, i got the cookies and walked outside, he was already handcuffed........... okay this has got to be it right,, it was all for the same initial charge, never a new charge,,,,,,,, my man IS innocent, but has to pay because of a bitter ex,,

Scotties_Girl21 · #50 06-09-2012, 07:44 AM

We knew exactly when he was gonna go and I chose not to be in the courtroom because I would not have been able to hold it together. We woke up together that morning and just layed with each other and cried, I remember running my fingers through his hair, telling him I loved him and just holding him trying to make the tears stop. His Mon showed up to take him to court and he said "I love you baby, write me" and walked out sobbing. I layed in my bed and cried that whole day and whole night. It was the WORST pain I've ever been through in my life, I wanted him so badly and I couldn't have him. Ugh, bad memories ..

Every day brings me one day closer to you....<3
