Well, a lot of you know about our troubles with our "young one", but now the tables have been turned, and he's the victim of some total bull$#it...
He's 20 years old, he's sitting in jail this minute, and his bail is $25,000. He's charged with 2nd degree felony sexual abuse of a minor. The bull$#it part? Well, his best friends dad's girlfriend (of less than a year) has taken it upon herself to convince authorities (and grandma) that our son fondled his friends 2 sisters...
...back in March of 1998! FIVE YEARS AGO, when he was only 15 years old! (the girls were 5 and 6 then...)
Our kid has been friends with this family for like 8 years! Best as we can guess, either he pissed off dad's girlfriend, or she has some wild hair about child molesters, and it's evident her and grandma have been coercing the girls into thinking they were victims of sexual abuse. The girls's mom don't think he did anything, everyone ELSE in the family don't think he did anything, even the girls he supposedly molested have said nothing happened! IF there was any "touchy" stuff, it was *possibly* when our kid & his friend were babysitting (piggy-back rides & such), and they babysat a LOT back then...but "touching and/or fondling with intent to arouse..." give me a break!
Regardless, the problem is, they won't appoint him an attorney to talk to, and they're telling him (and us) that he may sit in jail until August!
Our kid's definitely no angel, but good hell, even if he's GUILTY, he's entitled to talk to an attorney, and see about getting out on O.R... My wife is going nuts trying to figure out who to call! He already HAS a court appointed attorney from another case, but she don't do "sexual abuse cases" (and she's completely worthless anyway)...he has a P.O. but he won't answer his phone or return calls, Legal Aid just told the wife the department that could help is closed till Monday ...Who the hell can we call?
The kid has enough troubles, but he just got a good job & his boss really likes him, and he just moved into an apartment--now this crap!
