Its time to expose these wrong doings and stop innocent people's lives from being stripped away from them. Do you dam jobs and fix this. You people are suppose to be the "trusted" ones. The ones that are suppose to make things right. Well guess what? Things are NOT right. Put yourself in the shoes of false allegations out of vindictivness. You seat in your comfy government chair ripped from you. Your career you worked most of your life for taken. No way to pay your bills. Your reputation ruined over somebody that abused the system. How would you feel? How would your children,family or friends feel? The system is broken. Special interest advocate groups coach these people to make a false accusation stick. Its job security for their personal conquest. The courts are burdened with heavy case loads. The DA just cares about "winning" to advance their career. Anither gold star on the case closure rate with no investigation into the actual facts. Police reports manipulated or words twisted to support these false allegations. Instead of coasting with your fancy high paying government jobs why not actually do something for the people wrongly accused. How about helping the people you are paid to help. Where is the justice???????? There is none. Its greed and legal gamesmanship. Its sad and this country is not what our fore fathers wanted it to be. Its easy to turn a blind eye to it from your perch high up but i urge you to lut yourself in this situation and really do some soul searching. How.would you feel? If you have a soul you would help. But then again ive lost my faith in how this system works and how government works. As long as you have money everything is perfect. UNTIL YOU LOSE IT ALL.

This is happening to my nephew. While he was in jail for 3 days, his wife of only 3 months cleaned out his house, possessions and bank account with her two grown sons. He is not the first man she has charged with domestic violence. He was arrested because he was the man. He has no prior records.REPORT COMMENTS

The No Contact Laws destroy families and denies a father and children either not to see each other or see each other very limited amounts of time. Even if and when a divorce is granted the woman who files the charges can simply keep filing extensions of the order and can take away that person's rights for over 5 years or more and there is no Court that will do anything to stop it. Once a No Contact Order is in effect it can even affect a man's joint legal custody and educational rights granted to him in a divorce for his children.. This bad law is really unconstitutional and there is absolutely no recourse to change it. The victim can modify it, but the accused is stripped away of any and all rights. They lose their children, homes and property and it causes 3rd parties who are part of the families to lose their rights also without due process. This bad No Contact laws helps to perpetuate potential domestic violence in the children because they do not get to see their fathers and can lead to bullying or other social problems for the children and society. Again, this law needs to be reviewed and changes made or dropped.REPORT COMMENTS

This has happened to our son! She abused him and told him and got arrested in 2014 and she told him he would pay. He thought he loved her and didn't press charges long and behold not even 6 months later she got wasted and fell and of course the cops didn't even investigate.... He was awoke from a dead sleep and questioned for hours....REPORT COMMENTS

I was convicted of Domestic Violence even though I did nothing but try to leave the store my estranged wife was in. She made multiple attempts to stop me because she needed me to babysit. She had scuffs on her Knees and various small bruises. Her statement of facts didnt even speak of me doing it. Only two witnesses made conflicting statements as to where they were when incident happened. The wife could not see anything and was inside the store. The husband says he was out front an saw me repeatedly pummeling my estranged who was sitting on the ground. Husband says he and wife entering parking lot at time of incident. Wife said they were inside the store. My estranged wife said nothng of me hitting or punching her. Proceedings for child custody started one month prior. I am only stable parent both lifestyle and finances and was suggested having me convicted would be the only way she stood a chance of keeping custody of our 11yr old son who begged to come live with me. My glasses were destroyed by her during brief altercation and drew blood on my face when I was scratched when she snatched glasses off my face. I asked to press charges on her by officers said I could not as it would look like retaliation. Was told I had to wait until my trial was over. I tried at that time but was told I cant that I was suppose to file charges after incident. I was given 180 days in jail. suspended 177 served 3 days. I was told if I get as much as a speeding ticket within the next year they would drag me to jail to serve the rest of my sentence. THIS WAS 21 YEARS ago yet for this entire time I get tearful talking or even thinking about the injustice i experienced. Typing this comment has the tears flowing and Im not a sappy emotional person. Having this on my record has affected my ability to get some job opportunites I applied for. Even though there was NO physical violence for the 13 years she and I were together, I was still ostrisized by family and friends. They commented since they threw the book at me I must be guilty. It filled me with such shame to have people now feel that way about me. I know several Veterans with PTSD very well. After hearing my story and seeing my reaction they all feel I have PTSD from the incident. I found out later the reason my ex was so determined to keep custody of our son who she agreed for the past 5 uears that he could come live with me. At the time my son was to move my ex was on welfare in a subsidized apt. My son was the last child in the home. To loose custody of him, she would not be eligible for welfare cash assistance or able to remain in her 3bdm subsidized apt. She was not ready to go to work Even though she had a Batchelors in Education she did not have her masters yet. She also had no where else she could live. Please contact me if my experience or testimony will help get this law passed. I can obtain any needed proof.REPORT COMMENTS

It is a shame that our American justice system allows this to happen. I know about it first hand because it has happened to my son several times and unfortunately he can't just walk away because a baby is involved. It's sad when a person can use the legal system to be vindictive and not be held accountable for it when they have been proven to be a liar. Our justice system is broken. People say the justice system works but it doesn't work it's being worked.REPORT COMMENTS

I might be lucky. My girlfriend was a pill popping alcoholic. She drank one day and I got home and her face was messed up. I took her to hospital without incident. Came home and slept without incident. Woke up and told girlfriend it is over. Suddenly she claims domestic abuse and an ex parte OFP was against me, temporarily banning me from home (which she did not own or is on mortgage) and vehicle (which she did not own or name on title). After thousands of dollars for lawyer, settled for home and car back but agreed to OFP without findings. This is a joke and needs to be addressed so TRUE domestic abuse victims can get justice.REPORT COMMENTS

I was falsely arrested for domestic violence with trumped up charges of strangulation & suffocation when all I did was restrain wife who was severely intoxicated, angry & wielding punches. She retaliated by calling police much too my surprise, naively thinking they would mediate the argument but instead they knew she was intoxicated and still arrested me because she stated that I pushed her. Of course, she was mortified and sobered up quickly when they handcuffed me away never expecting that outcome. After a long cold horrible humiliating night in jail, court dates and attorney fees the case was dismissed, wife was contrite and testified that no battery occurred of the nature described by the corrupt officer. I was also assured that the arrest records would be sealed which at the time dissuaded me from filing a law suit and complaint. To make matters worse, the records were never sealed causing irreparable damage, leading to job loss, employment discrimination, derogatory credit rating, and disenfranchisement without ever being convicted of a crime. Two years passed while these records were publicly available and misused by these criminal data websites before I realized the damage. Now I'm incurring more attorney fees to clean my records and am hard-pressed to exact any form of legal recourse without a costly battle.REPORT COMMENTS

I am one of these men who was falsely accused by my pregnant wife, who wants to leave our marriage. She physically attacked me and I called the police. After 2 months and 7 thousand dollars in attorney fees, and a trial, I was exonerated. Yes, some women lie, attack men, and greatly abuse the legal system for their cunning selfish plans.REPORT COMMENTS

i am sick and sad. I am signing this because it has happened to my good friend, he took care of, loved and porvided for a lazy girl who took out a restraining order on him, has another man living in his house that she has no right to and we keep finding his things all over town in pawn shops. he built her a salon and did all the work in it and she did an interview on live television claiming she did all the work. she lied and she is getting away with it. he lost his job, he had to go to jail for abuse that neve occured. the day in question the cops came and he said he would leave so they saw she was not hurt but he stilll got charged and found guilty for domeestic abuse and assault and a court order saying she can have his home up to a year and even then can file an extension. how can this be happening. not only is she morally retarded, how can we live in a world and beleive in the law when it is justified. it makes me sick and this is why we have murders and people getting hurt because the law protects the wrong entity and she is sick for taking advantage of itREPORT COMMENTS

I am a woman. and I got arrested and charged with domestic violence in Florida because I was scared to talk to the police. Even after the aggressor told the police that he started it and it was his fault they still arrested me. When the aggressor asked the police why they were arresting me they told him "because she was not cooperating".REPORT COMMENTS

I have been falsely accused of domestic violence by my wife who has continuously emotionally abused me by threatening divorce unless I lie about our marital status so that she could collect her SSI. She has continuously provoked an argument about anything that would intimidate me. She began an affair with more than one person whom she made it known to me to upset me. After I refused to be dishonest, refused to leave my home without cause, and refused to discipline her children after being told she would have me arrested for child abuse, my wife falsely accused me of domestic violence to obtain a domestic violence injunction against me. I missed the hearing due to health reasons and was denied a rehearing to defend myself. I am a Correctional officer and may lose my job because of being accused of being guilty until proven innocent. Was told by my wife that she and her Judge would go back to the Circuit Judges private chambers to discuss the domestic violence. If this is so, it is an unjust treatment that leaves men like myself without reliable representation to prove their innocents. This injustice took place March 02, 2016. Please help us make laws that hold men and women accountable for making false accusations and applying for an injunction require more solid evidence of domestic abuse. Thank you.REPORT COMMENTS

I feel it's criminal and cruel to falsely accuse someone of DV! I was a crisis intervention advocate for years. I am a survivor of DV and violent crimes. I know both men and women who have been falsely accused and arrested. Some prosecuted, because of lack of proper representation and not having enough money to have a good attorney. I have known innocent children who were taken away and put in foster care due to a parent's lies. Only to suffer from abuse from the foster parent(s). To be falsely set up is beyond cruel and should be a crime, but sadly it is not. It is beyond inhumane that someone with a clean record, who has done so much good helping others, gets set up by a jealous, controlling, abusive girlfriend or ex. I have known several young men whose lives were forever changed due to this. Some had disabilities (auditory processing delay, ADD, neurological tremors), had no prior arrests, and were treated as a criminal , guilty before being proven innocent. Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? I've known innocent men who were simply protecting themselves from being physically assaulted by putting up their arms, the aggressor running into them, then claiming they were the one assaulted. There were no pictures taken at a medical facility to prove physical abuse, only the aggressor's word. Some have set up their partner to arguments, taking pictures, while they are screaming and physically assaulting the innocent partner. I have heard of an ex attacking and photographing, taking photos of personal paperwork, writing assignments, hacking into cell phone and taking information that she wanted to build up a false charge, even from emails. It has gone so far as to these aggressor(s) blackmailing, threatening that if the victim tries to defend themselves in court, they will "put them behind bars." When I was trained back in the 90's, we were made aware of men being victims of DV. I suggested to someone that they call the National Domestic Hotline. He was not treated with compassion. I contacted the hotline and shared the experience this young man had when reaching out for help on where to go for support. They did apologize and kindly gave me some options for this young man whose life was completely turned upside down. It affected his health. The signs of PTS were being felt. He was threatened by his ex that if he shared his side, she would put him behind bars. It is also unfair for law enforcement to go after someone when a complaint(s) have been made, without physical evidence, besides the cunning writings that this person took to form her own abuse. She also removed her abusive messages to him on his cell phone and computer. It has gotten out of hand. I feel there should be some sort of mediation, not condemnation and unfairly arresting someone, putting them behind bars and scarring their life, without hearing both sides. I've seen this too often where the young man is shocked to hear the allegations and does not say anything while beiREPORT COMMENTS
