I was married to a woman who liked to use the system. I took her to court to get full and total custody of my 2 older children in 1996. She proceeded to trump up charges of abuse and take out protective orders against me. When all of this was over I was found NOT GUILTY of any of the charges I was not aquitted I was found NOT GUILTY and Judge John W. Smith called her a lier in open court and said the charges were false. After that my ex-wife lost custody of the children, had her parental rights stripped from her and pled guilty to child abuse and sexual abuse of a child. You see women do trump up charges and that makes it hard for men and women who are real victims to get anything done because of this.
