~y2009m11d7-Crystel-Strelioff-sentenced-to-12-years-for-abducting-children
Crystel Strelioff sentenced on four counts of felony child abduction.
The father said Crystel was sentenced to the maximum of three years on each count, but they run concurrently and in Illinois, where she is serving time, prisoners can be released after 50% of the sentence is served. Because the child abductor already served about six months of her sentence, she may be released in a year.
This case is shameful. The mother tricked protective parent organizations such as Justice for Children into spending their time and other resources on a sham case. The father underwent extensive testing voluntarily and the children did not give convincing accounts of any abuse by the father, according to court documents. Worse, the children seemed to the evaluators to have been coached, meaning they suffered verbal and emotional sexual abuse by the people who coached them.~y2009m11d7-Crystel-Strelioff-sentenced-to-12-years-for-abducting-children

September 8th, 2009 He Got Me Drunk
by Marc H. Rudov
Is Your Son Safe at College?
He got me drunk. How many times have you heard this laughable nonsense from childish women?
Cops and judges hear it all the time but, to avoid being labeled misogynists, quickly punish the “guilty” men. The definition of female adult — one responsible for her own behavior, including alcoholic consumption — somehow doesn’t apply in matters of sex and romance with men.
Let’s get real: a man cannot get a woman drunk! That’s her deal — achieved by opening her mouth, repeatedly filling it with booze, and eventually passing out. Intoxication is a choice.
Unfortunately, a girl blaming a guy for her choice to have sex while self-impaired is an all-too-common and acceptable practice, especially on the college campus. At Duke University, home of the infamous Lacrosse Player Rape Scandal, a girl can file a sexual-misconduct complaint up to two years after any “incident.”
So, if your son is beginning or continuing his tenure at a university this Labor Day week, the likelihood he’ll be falsely accused of rape is greater than when I wrote “Is Your Son Safe at College?” in 2007. You must be aware and make him aware.September 8th, 2009 He Got Me Drunk

Jury Instructions are biased towards the accuser. In the past, the jury was instructed that rape allegations were easy to make but difficult for the defendant to disprove. Today, this instruction is no longer given--instead, juries are informed that medical evidence is not necessary to prove rape, and no witness is necessary, other than the alleged victim. Imagine! Could anyone escape a guilty verdict under these circumstances?
Rape Shield Laws do not allow a defendant to introduce the prior sexual conduct of the complainant. Thus, Rape Shield Laws that are intended to encourage more woment o come forward and testify have simply made it easier to falsely accuse and convict an innocent man. The testimony of any other woman who says a man has assaulted her is admissible in court, without evidence or corrobroation and whether she has ever reported the alleged crime to anyone or not.
Rape Trauma Syndrome is a name used in court to prove that a woman has been traumatized by rape, but is a term used to help convict men unfairly. If a woman immediately reports a rape, that is consistent with Rape Trauma Syndrome. If she waits months to report it, that behavior is also consistent with Rape Trauma Syndrome. If she cries, that signals Rape Trauma Syndrome. If she doesn't cry, that also signals Rape Trauma Syndrome. In short, the term, which is not a true diagnosis but a set of emotional responses, is used to the advantage of the accuser.
"To my considerable chagrin, we found that at least 60 percent of all the rape allegations were false." --Dr. Charles P. McDowell, Supervisory Special Agent, U.S. Air Force, Office of Special Investigations.

Gone is the vacant stare, straggly bleached locks and darkened roots from Sandy's September mug shot, when she was arrested for the statutory rape of a 17-year-old student. (Age of consent in Tennessee is 18.) She now sits comfortably with an almost serene glow, her salon-cut hair a glossy auburn as she prepares to deliver her defense: It was she who was raped...
It's a puzzling assertion from a rape victim, this emphasis on the student's near-adult status and the insistence that only one interaction took place. Absent is the rage of a victim or the defiance of someone wrongly accused. Instead, Binkley fidgets with her fingernail, answering questions with an embarrassed smirk. "It's very absurd," she says with an almost imperceptible laugh. "It's very hard to believe someone would accuse me of this."
"Did you resist?" the reporter asks Binkley in the broadcast.
"Yes I did," she says matter-of-factly. "But he crossed the boundary and there was nothing I could do."
Since that TV interview, Judge David Gay has placed a gag order on all participants in the Binkley case. But it's easy to discern from court documents that prosecutors will tell a different story. They will likely portray an educator dubiously popular with students—the sort of hip teacher who maintained a Facebook page and courted students as friends, even working out with some at a local gym.
They will argue that she had sex with not one, but three different boys—two of whom are brothers. Together, the official complaints describe multiple encounters over nearly two years—sex in storage closets, classrooms, in Binkley's car on rural roads and even in the driveway of one student's home—from early 2007 to late 2008.
They will emphasize that she never filed a complaint about the alleged rape at Portland High. "She only reported the encounter as rape when faced with the evidence that we had proving that sexual activity did occur between her and the victim on school campus," reads a statement from Assistant Police Chief Richard Smith. "Her story is not consistent with a rape victim."
They will point out that a rape victim doesn't usually continue to text message, call and hang out with their assailant, as Binkley did. Nor do they typically buy their rapist expensive graduation presents.
Perhaps they will paint her as unhappily married, seeking out the comfort of boys—her bubbly, outgoing persona merely a mask to hide a troubling depression.
If they draw at all from the prosecution of other female sex offenders, they will show her as a dangerous sexual predator who groomed her victims, forming intense friendships with students she fancied until they let their guard down so she could seduce them.
They will point to the words of a 17-year-old, who said he knew Binkley intimately enough to know her tubes were tied, so he didn't need to wear a condom.
"She laid down on the desk and I began to have intercourse with her," he said at one hearing. ". . . She said this isn't what you expected when you signed up for a teacher's aid."
Binkley would only be caught after a student's mother found a confusing text message on her son's cell phone. "I'll have to mark you absent," it said. The mother dialed the number and got Binkley's voicemail. She wondered why the teacher would text a student rather than call his parents, so she got in touch with administrators and police.
The evidence seems mounted against her as she heads for a September trial on seven counts of statutory rape and two counts of sexual battery by an authority figure. But if the past offers any prediction, she's almost sure to get the female discount if she's convicted.
Reported sex offenses by women increased tenfold from the '80s to the '90s, yet their prison time remains but a fraction of what men receive. A Kansas State professor found that, on average, male teachers faced up to 20 years in prison for sex abuse, while female teachers were handed probation, house arrest or a maximum oGone is the vacant stare, straggly bleached locks and darkened roots from Sandy's... more

Mother falsely accused husband of rape because 'she wanted him out of her life'
By Sam Greenhill
Last updated at 1:35 AM on 03rd July 2009
Comments (18) Add to My Stories A lying mother who cried rape to get her estranged husband 'removed from her life' was jailed for four months yesterday.
Michaela Lodge's 'wicked' allegation against innocent Martin Lodge resulted in him spending 12 hours in a cell.
Only after three months did the 45-year-old mother-of-three confess she had made it all up so she could pursue an affair.
'Wicked allegation': Michaela Lodge (right) falsely accused her estranged husband, Martin (left) of rape because she wanted him out of her life
Judge Rodger Hayward Smith said her 'calculated' behaviour had done a great disservice to real rape victims'.
Sentencing Lodge, who admitted perverting the course of justice, he said: 'It was a wicked allegation that was pre-planned to hasten his departure from your life.'
Lodge, of Braintree, Essex, was arrested after finally confessing she had lied in a letter of apology to Mr Lodge begging his forgiveness.
Last night her 54-year-old husband told the Mail being arrested left him 'totally humiliated' but that his wife, who he supported in court, had 'learned her lesson'.
Prosecutor Andrew Jackson told Chelmsford Crown Court Mr Lodge's ordeal began last November when his wife claimed he had raped her in the house they continued to share, even though they were estranged.
Essex Police started a rape investigation and held Mr Lodge in custody for 12 hours and 49 minutes.
He was released on bail after insisting he had gone to bed with his wife, but only at her invitation.
Two months later Lodge made a witness statement in which she said she did not want her husband prosecuted - but continued to maintain he had raped her.
However in February she passed a letter to her husband, via her son Daniel, admitting the lie. It had 'a kiss underneath' his name on the envelope, the court heard.
The letter read: 'I am so sorry about what I have done to you. My head was and is all over the place.
'I cannot deal with this any more, I need to put it right. When we went to bed we both wanted to make love and the fact is I lied to police about you raping me.
'I will say goodbye and hope one day you will be able to forgive me. I am so sorry.'
When arrested for making the false allegation, Lodge admitted she had lied. Mr Lodge was never charged.
Marc Brown, defending, insisted Lodge had not acted out of malice or revenge and claimed she started having regrets almost immediately.
He said: 'It was born out of a confused desire to remove him from the picture. She accepts it was an outright lie. She did what she did without thinking of the consequences.'
Lodge, whose three grown-up children are from a previous marriage, boasts on the Friends Reunited website that she loves 'nights in with a nice bottle of wine' and 'going out with my friends dancing'.
Elsewhere she describes herself as 'bisexual', and has also posted photographs of herself in a short dress flashing her stocking tops.
She was jailed despite 'a magnanimous appeal for mercy' from her husband, asking the judge to spare her from prison.
Last night Mr Lodge, a warehouseman who married his wife in 1994, said: 'When the police turned up I was totally gobsmacked. I couldn't believe what was going on. It was totally humiliating.
'But I really can't hold too much against her. Maybe I'm too soft - that's why I supported her in court.
'I think it's a very lenient sentence but I think maybe she could not have been sent to jail as I think she has learned her lesson.'Mother falsely accused husband of rape because 'she wanted him out of her life'

BELFAST, Maine — A city woman has been summoned after her repeated claims of being sexually assaulted proved false.
Sara N. Brown, 19, of High Street was summoned on two counts of filing a false report or alarm, Detective Michael McFadden said Thursday.
The first assault claim was filed Sept. 11, 2008. Brown told police that four men entered her apartment, held a cloth over her face containing a substance that rendered her unconscious and gang-raped her. She said she woke up in a ditch on the other side of the city.
McFadden said the department thoroughly investigated the matter, but was unable to find any witnesses or evidence corroborating Brown’s claims.
“We had nothing to work with,” McFadden said.
On March 19, Brown called the department to report that a man had grabbed her from behind as she walked from her apartment, dragged her into an alley and sexually assaulted her. She was taken by ambulance to Waldo County General Hospital and then to Penobscot Bay Medical Center in Rockport for additional examinations.
“The findings didn’t coincide with what she was telling us. There were no bruises, no abrasions on her body or anything consistent with what she was telling us,” McFadden said.
On April 28, Brown reported that a man had entered her kitchen while she was washing dishes and punched her in the face, causing her nose to bleed. She said it was the same man who had attacked her the month before. Police were unable to find any evidence that she had been injured and no traces of blood.
“I interviewed her again and she eventually admitted that she fabricated all three events. She admitted she knew what she had done was wrong,” McFadden said. “I explained to her that we spent a lot of time investigating her allegations. [For] the March 19 incident, the entire police force was out searching the downtown for the guy.”BELFAST, Maine — A city woman has been summoned after her repeated claims of being... more

Domestic Violence Claims - The Short Route to U.S. Citizenship
May 7th, 2009 by Robert Franklin, Esq.
"(Chaikheeva) went to great lengths to rehearse me on what to say and how to pretend tears in front of the judge and to convince me that I could benefit greatly by doing this ... As I have found out since, she follows the same procedure with all of her 'clients.' Almost all are too afraid to testify against her."
That's a Russian immigrant woman explaining to Arizona prosecutors how she was coached to bring a false claim of domestic violence against her new American husband. Why? Under VAWA, a finding that an immigrant who is married to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident is a victim of DV can get her permanent residency. As a practical matter, a woman can marry a man who is a U.S. citizen, divorce him, claim DV and get a green card. It's a handy-dandy shortcut to independent permanent residency in the good old U.S. of A.
Not surprisingly, certain organizations have sprung up to help foreign women take advantage of just that provision in the law. The woman quoted at the first of this piece said she had gone to a place called the Shield Foundation of Phoenix and received the coaching she described. And apparently she's not the only one.
This article quotes an immigration lawyer in the Phoenix area saying it's a common practice (KPHO, 4/29/09). He calls it "gaming the system."
I emailed the Shield Foundation for their comments on the article. They called the allegations reported by KPHO "malicious and contrived," and "slanderous, defamatory and liable as to the persons making such statements."Domestic Violence Claims - The Short Route to U.S. Citizenship

RADAR ALERT:
Want a Good Laugh? Check Out the SAFE Act!
What if you knew a bill had been introduced in Congress in which most of the findings were misleading, outdated, or simply false? Welcome to wonderful, wacky world of HR 739, the Security and Financial Empowerment Act (SAFE).
The bill contains 53 different claims. Only 4 of those claims can be verified as accurate, current, and truthful. As for the remaining 49 claims, whoever dreamed up this stuff has an incredible sense of humor!
The following bold-faced quotes come straight from the SAFE Act findings. They are followed by the actual facts. So get ready for some side-splitting humor:
"Violence against women has been reported to be the leading cause of physical injury to women."
Here's what the website of U.S. Department of Health and Human Services shows (http://mchb. hrsa.gov/ whusa08/hstat/ hi/pages/ 226i.html):
Under the graph the DHHS states, "All of the leading causes of injury in 2006 were unintentional. " But domestic violence is an intentional cause of injury. In other words, DV is not even on the list of leading causes of injury.
"According to recent Government estimates, approximately 987,400 rapes occur annually in the United States"
Here's what the FBI really says: "In 2007, the estimated number of forcible rapes (90,427) decreased 2.5 percent from the 2006 estimate." http://www.fbi. gov/ucr/cius2007 /offenses/ violent_crime/ forcible_ rape.html So the SAFE number is off by about 900,000. We'll just call it a rounding error.
Now ready to have a real belly laugh? Check out RADAR's critique of the SAFE findings: http://www.mediarad ar.org/docs/ RADARanalysis- HR739Findings. pdf
After you see all the misleading claims, misrepresentations, and outright falsehoods, tell your Representative that people shouldn't be making a joke of domestic violence.
Tell your congressman to vote 'No' against the SAFE Act. As always, please remember to be polite.

"...the social schemers.
To drive home the message of men as inveterate abusers, the domestic violence industry has organized a series of high-profile "awareness months." January is Stalking Awareness Month. February is when we focus on Teen Dating, when couples can celebrate Valentine's Day by watching a performance of the Vagina Monologues. March is Women's History Month, so anything goes then. April has been designated Sexual Assault Awareness Month. And June? Soon that will be Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
So ladies, after all those Take Back the Night rallies, you'll be so scared that you will have divorced your husband, hired a security guard, and taken up residence in a lock-down facility. All these consciousness-raising events are taxpayer-funded, thanks to the federal Violence Against Women Act.""...the social schemers.

Judge frees Maine woman who killed abusive husband
By The Associated Press
PORTLAND, Maine — A 50-year-old Portland woman who killed her abusive husband with a butcher knife has been sentenced to the seven months she already spent in jail.
Laureen Rugen, who was free on bail, left the courthouse a free woman after Friday’s sentencing. She was initially charged with murder but pleaded guilty in February to manslaughter.
The judge agreed with prosecution and defense lawyers that Rugen suffered two decades of physical, emotional and sexual abuse at the hands of her 61-year-old husband, Christian Rugen.
Rugen stabbed her husband more than 25 times on April 8, 2008.
Prosecutor Lisa Marchese said the case involved a unique set of circumstances and does not signal that it’s OK to kill an abusive spouse.4/16/09

Mary Kellett - Nobody’s Talking…
March 13th, 2009
It’s interesting when I call up prosecutor’s who are misbehaving. Nobody is willing to step up and be accountable for their actions. It happened with Jennifer Weiler of Thurston County and the Jeremy Kanoa Hughes case, and now it’s happening again with Mary N. Kellet, Assistant District Attorney/Hitwoman for Maine’s 7th district court. She’s not talking. Period.
A new rape “trial” for the Vladek Filler family has been ordered due to her misconduct up in Ellsworth, Maine where as many as 4 men per month have been indicted on multiple counts of Rape, each carrying up to 30 years in prison. The details are disturbing, especially the conduct of Ms. Kellett within the courtroom itself.
So, I contacted Micheal Povich this afternoon to get the prosecution’s side of the story. He was a likable fellow who actually brought up many good points. One of his points was burden of proof. He asked me initially if I presumed that all rape charges were innocent? I wondered in return, if he thought all rape charges were presumed guilty? He asked me how I would decipher evidentiary accusatory material brought forth concerning rape. I simply answered him that accusations do not constitute rape. I left that statement not sure whether he was in agreement with me or not. But, he seemed to want to understandably justify his position. I was wondering if that justification was for the victims only or whether that also included the accused. Either way, I’d like to remind Mr. Povich that the system would be much more equitable if allegations of perjury were treated as equally as those of domestic violence.
Michael would not discuss this case, even though it was thrown out of court the first time that it was tried. It will be tried again, even though Ms. Kellett is trying at this moment to kill certain evidence against her “client” in the Maine Appelate courts. Why that is, is still a question to be answered. It has been my experience that those who hold public office and have something to hide, decline all offers. Mr. Povich, to his credit, did speak with me today.
So, I left Mr. Povich with one last telling question concerning accountablilty. I simply asked him if he would be willing to openly discuss this case once it has been settled. He neither declined, nor accepted, yet alluded to his answer to be in line of “slimy lawyers” as his excuse. I certainly hope that it is not an excuse. I equally hope that he will accept my offer as I will be following this case to its conclusion. At that point, I will again contact Mr. Povich and it should then be clear as to the motives of what kind of office he is running up there. One that will stonewall public answers or one that is accountable to their public.Mary Kellett - Nobody’s Talking…

'My innocent boy was locked up with killers over rape lie'
12:30pm Wednesday 25th February 2009
Exclusive By Katie Wilson »
The mother of a 14-year-old boy who was falsely accused of rape by a fellow pupil has spoken of her anger after her innocent son was held for five months with “murderers and gang members”.
The trial collapsed after a single day in court as it emerged that the girl, 14, could have lied about being raped to hide the fact she had tried to skip school.
The boy’s mother told the Wandsworth Guardian she was furious that the girl would get off “scot-free” while her son had to spend months on remand in a secure unit, miles from home, while waiting to be tried.
The schoolgirl from Putney claimed she had been raped by two boys, aged 13 and 14, at her home.
She had claimed the boys came to her house on October 16 and threatened to take her hostage, before taking it in turns to rape her.
However, the case collapsed at Inner London Crown Court last week because of conflicting evidence.
None of the teenagers can be identified for legal reasons.
The girl is unlikely to face any criminal charges for wasting police time because officials fear it could prevent other rape victims from coming forward.
The teenage boy’s mother said: “My son was banged up in a secure unit with murderers and gang members miles from home all on this girl’s say so, which turned out to be a load of rubbish.
“The whole story was lies right from the beginning and I can’t believe it went as far as it did.
“Now nothing will even happen to her as the Crown Prosecution Service has said it won’t prosecute her for wasting police time as it might stop real rape victims coming forward.
“I know measures need to be in place for real rape victims, but this shouldn’t have happened to two young boys.
“Now they have the stigma of all their friends knowing what they were accused of.
“No support has been given to them even though the case has been dropped. We’ve had no apology from the police and she gets off scot-free. It’s just wrong.”
The boys, both from Putney, always denied their involvement in the alleged rape and insisted the girl let them in to her house that day as they were all going to “bunk off ” school together.
A police spokeswoman said: “We are not in a position to comment as this may have a negative impact on victims coming forward.”'My innocent boy was locked up with killers over rape lie'
