JANUARY, 2002: Met Ashley Terjelian from the Vermont chatroom, and she pretty much moved in with me, and we shortly learned that she was pregnant with my daughter.
MARCH, 2002: Ashley left me without any reason to leave. Her odd attachment to her father seemed to be the reason--it was more of a dominating relationship with him and both his daughters.
MAY, 2002: Ashley came back and gave me a letter that just talked about sex and how horny she was since she got pregnant, and she left me two weeks later, without reason again, because one can get sex from anywhere, if that's all one cares about as it seemed by her letter.
JUNE, 2002: Ashley's father, Paul Terjelian, led me to believe my daughter was aborted, and the entire family played games surrounding the pregnancy and disrespected the fact that Ashley was carrying my daughter, and that I wanted to be there for her.
JULY, 2002: Kristen Place contacted me, while I was in the Vermont chatroom and lied to me about her age.
AUGUST, 2002: After numerous suicide attempts that year as a result of the distress I was feeling, I left with the fair to try to get out of my head. While in Anderson, North Carolina, I checked my e-mail and noticed between 10-20 e-mails from Kristen asking when I would be back and saying how she missed me and wanted to meet me when I returned.
OCTOBER, 2002: Returned from the fair in anticipation of my daughter's birth and to try to resolve some things with Ashley. I left a letter in her paperbox on her birthday, October 22, 2002. I tried talking to her on the phone on October 26, 2002 and asked her if she got the letter. She said, "What letter? You didn't leave me a letter! You're a liar!" I told her I wasn't lying and that her father must have gotten it, and he and I eventually had words over the phone, and he told me, while I was drinking, "Come on over and we'll settle this right now." After all his games and in my unstable state as a result, I went over only to be pulled over by the police in their trailer park and given a DWI3 and conditions not to have contact with Ashley, even though it was her father I was after. I met Pam Smith shortly after, but she already had two kids and a miscarriage, as well as a big scar on her stomach, and I told her I didn't know what I wanted, even though I knew it wasn't her.
NOVEMBER, 2002: Met Kristen for the first time. She spent the night, and on another day she went to court with me for one of my drinking violations. When I got another drinking violation, a couple weeks after meeting, I asked Kristen to bring over her seizure medication so that I could overdose on it. She came over, and I took the pills, and she did against my telling her not to take them--she had said she would have taken them all the night before if I hadn't called her back, and the reason she took them was because her mother hit her and called her names all the time. Shortly after taking them, the police arrived, because 'Kristen had left a letter for her mother.' (I have never seen this "letter" in anything, and evidence supports that Kristen's mother knew what she was doing the entire time, just to help their family friends, the Terjelians, eliminate me from my daughter's life--I didn't discover the friendship until March, 2008.
DECEMBER, 2002: On December 6, 2002, my name came out in the paper for my involvement with Kristen, and Ashley called me later that day. I told her about my conditions, and she said that she wasn't going to tell anyone and told me that I had a daughter named Madison, born on November 15, 2002. I asked her when I could see her, and she said, "I don't know. My parents want you to have nothing to do with her." She had told me this before the DWI3, as well as things against my "man"hood, prior to November. She and I continued to talk until December 20, 2002. On December 20, 2002, the investigation regarding Kristen was becoming oppressive. The police came to my house, and I ignored the door. A little later, Chris Carlson, the investigator who refused my right to counsel, tried calling me, but I ignored the phone, because I didn't recognize the number. I called it back thinking it might be someone else, but it was him, and he was demeaning and condescending in his tone. Later, Ashley called me. She said she had to step away from the phone, and it hung up after a couple minutes. I thought Ashley and the investigator, even though not connected in anyway, were trying to eliminate me from my daughter's life, just like Ashley and her family had been doing the entire year, and I had a breakdown and attempted suicide by fire in my room. The fire snapped me out of my breakdown, and I decided "I have a daughter to live for," and I barely escaped. I was not expected to live, but I did.
MAY, 2003: I signed myself out of the hospital AMA, because Ashley had brought my daughter to see me once in January, 2003, but then went back to playing her games, and I wanted to start filing papers. I stayed at the shelter and tried contacting my PD to let him know I was no longer at the hospital to try and get my conditions adjusted. On May 5, 2003, I finally connected with him after trying for a few days. I went to court, and I went to jail. While I was in jail, I was charged with "arson" for my suicide attempt.
(While I was in jail, my bail was raised extremely high as a result of the addition of the "arson" charge. My public defenders were changed on me three times--I had four different public defenders. My third PD was a fighter, and he appealed my high bail. While it was on appeal, my PD's changed again, and my new one was not a fighter. The Vermont Supreme Court gave the lower court explicit instructions to lower my bail and give me conditions that would allow me to get out. The lower court lowered my bail, but the conditions prevented me from living at home, and I couldn't live anywhere else. My new PD was not willing to file a new appeal, and I had to write my own and send it to my former PD, and I was released on bail on December 9, 2004. I enrolled in a lot of counseling and attended AA religiously. I had discredited most of the affidavit regarding Kristen, and I also learned that a 12-D, meaning the charge doesn't apply, could be filed on my "arson" charge, but my new PD was ineffective and unwilling to do anything. Arson is the willful and malicious burning of a building. I tried killing myself regardless of how I did it--it was not my intent to destroy my childhood home, but I had a breakdown as a result of everything I dealt with in 2002. Anybody who thinks they can handle what I dealt with in 2002, feeling the way I do about being a good father and wanting to be a father since I was young, then try my shoes on with everything else I dealt with--including being sodomized by a guy at 20, hit by a car at almost 9, and not having a sense of self for most of your life. I have that now, but only because of what I dealt with. I know who I am and what I'm not. The bottom line is, my PD refused to do anything, while I did everything, and PD's had already been changed on me three times so I couldn't see me salvaging any of my life if I changed them again, even though I wanted my former PD back. He couldn't argue in front of my judge anymore though, because after he told her he was appealing her decision regarding my bail, she found him in contempt on the following case as a boil over. The State offered me a deal where they would dismiss the "arson" charge and a couple of the violations of conditions of release from 2002, including a duplicate Internet chat "violation," if I pled guilty to sexual "assault" on a minor for 5-12 years in jail, but I told my PD I would only take it if I could argue for less so that I could continue with all the hard work I had been doing for the past seven months. During the pre-sentence investigation, Kristen exaggerated the circumstances of 2002 a little by just saying I "forced" her to do everything, even though it was contrary to everything revealed in the initial investigation, which was told in my response.)
JULY, 2005: After seeing my daughter very little and being enrolled in college very shortly, I was sentenced for my plea deal on July 13, 2005. I had a psychosexual evluation that indicated I am not a predator or pedophile, even though I already knew that, and I had a lot of professionals' testimony regarding that and my head injury. When it came time for me to give my statement, I couldn't even get out the first two words without choking up, because of how bad I felt for the events of 2002, my regret to my daughter since she was going to have a hard time being withheld from me and brainwashed by her mother, and I wouldn't be able to do much because of my daughter, and I finally was getting the life, sense of self and individuality through everything and my college, that I always wanted. The judge took a recess, and when she returned to the courtroom, she said: "Before I came into this courtroom, my mind was made up, but that has changed..."
DECEMBER, 2005: On Friday, December 2, 2005, when I was seeing my daughter a little more than before, it was brought to my attention that Kristen was in the same bingo hall, the American Legion, as I was, and I removed myself. On Monday, December 5, 2005, I signed in early and left a letter for my PO at the front of probation, explaining to her that Kristen saw me in a bingo hall, and I removed myself and waited in my friend's car for 15 or so minutes for my ride to get there. When I actually met with my PO, approximately a week later, she asked me if I gave Kristen the finger, and I told her that I didn't and that I left her a letter. She never said one way or another whether she got the letter, she just gave me a look. She told me not to return to the Legion, and I told her that I would just continue going to the Grange on Tuesday nights. On Thursday, December 29, 2005, I was called into probation, and I thought it had something to do with Kristen's report on December 2, 2005. I was called to the back of probation and bombarded by a bunch of questions, and it became revealed that Kristen had planted herself at the Grange on December 27, 2005 without my awareness at all that she was there. On December 28, 2005, she and her boyfriend had filed reports alleging that I touched her in the chest, and I also learned that her father had filed a report that alleged I was driving on December 2, 2005. I spoke with the Grange manager about this, and she informed me that Kristen had gone to her that night just to try to get me kicked out by saying I couldn't be around her. The manager, Marge, without my knowledge that this was even occurring, told Kristen that she had to leave because I was a regular and she had never seen her before.
JANUARY, 2006: At a court hearing for the false allegations, the judge said he had to recuse himself because he knew my father. I spoke with my PO outside, and she asked if I was still going to the Grange, and I told her that I was, but that I was making sure that Kristen wasn't in there, before I entered. On January 31, 2006, after I entered the Grange, Marge approached me and said that she thought she saw Kristen's boyfriend come in and look around, but that he didn't reserve a seat, and she didn't think he would be back. I didn't feel safe trying to leave, because I didn't know if they were outside. After I took my seat, Kristen and her boyfriend tried entering the Grange and created a big scene. I was offered a plea at one point regarding the false reports where if I 'pled guilty to one of the reports, didn't matter which one, then the State would just clarify my conditions.' I didn't do anything, so I wasn't going to take a plea.
MARCH, 2006: On March 15, 2006, we had a hearing regarding the false reports, and I had brought all of my witnesses. Kristen was there with her boyfriend, but her father had withdrawn his report. The judge, Brian Grearson, chose to sequester everybody who was testifying aside from Kristen and me from the courtroom. It was obvious Kristen was lying when she testified. She couldn't answer questions, and when she did, they were different than what she said in the reports, and her face was turning red and she was smiling and laughing. My testimony was solid, and after I was finished, Grearson chose to continue the hearing. That didn't make sense after sequestering everybody.
JULY, 2006: I fired my public defender, because I felt he was being ineffective, as he was regarding the charges from 2002, and he admitted to being ineffective both times at a hearing on July 7, 2006, my birthday. He also mentioned that the boyfriend, David Ballard Jr., was supposed to be getting called as a hostile witness for his false report.
AUGUST, 2006: I had a status conference with my new "state-paid," lawyer Kathy Strahm. After the hearing, I asked her if we were still calling David as a hostile witness, and she said yes.
OCTOBER, 2006: I joined a web design class to expose what I was dealing with, because I was not going to be silently oppressed. On October 6, 2006, I had my final hearing. I had all of my witnesses there again, but I didn't see anybody else around, and I asked Strahm where David was--that I thought we were calling him as a hostile witness. She gave me a dumb look, but I just wanted to get the case over with regardless of the outcome, because if they were going to railroad me, then that's what they were going to do. At the end, Judge Grearson found me guilty, in violation of just not removing myself from the Grange, even though I didn't know Kristen was there at the time, and the only things that would say otherwise were the false reports from her and her boyfriend, but those weren't substantiated by the facts either. I later learned that Strahm had represented Ashley when she lost custody in July, 2003 for assaulting every member of her family. Of course, Ashley just badmouthed me to Strahm, so that's why Strahm was a worthless lawyer--a conflict of interest actually. The decision was appealed.
MARCH, 2007: On March 13, 2007, one week before my "last group," the counselor mentioned how he had just gotten off the phone with my PO, and she said that I had to continue going to group until I accepted responsibility for the violation, even though it was on appeal. I put my foot down and called my PO when I got home and left her a message telling her that I wasn't going in to see her or to group anymore. I will not be blackmailed to keep doing something until I accept responsibility for something that I did not do. On March 26, 2007, my PO and I got into it on the phone, and I told her that she was like talking to a brick wall and that if she didn't get it by now, then she was never going to get it. She told me I was "in denial" and suggested that I come in to see her right now. She was in denial about what happened in the courtroom, and I suggested she go to my site to see that I would not be oppressed silently. My computer was stolen by them, and I was cited to go to court on March 27, 2007, and I went to jail. I also filed a lawsuit right before I went to jail initially thinking the conspiracy was between Kristen and officials.
MAY, 2007: On May 8, 2007, I was released on conditions, and I eventually had to plead guilty to some of the violations around May 21, 2007. The State and my PO kept insisting that I had threats against them and officials on my site, but the judge told them that he looked at the site and didn't see anything threatening on there. It was rude, but not threatening, and he let me go. Fortunately, I didn't have to keep going back to group.
SEPTEMBER, 2007: I was given a new PO, and he busted me for smoking weed, so I wasn't going to get my license back, even though I hadn't drunk since 2002.
OCTOBER, 2007: After sending my filings, following rules of discovery, to Kristen's father for my lawsuit against him for his and her lies since April, 2007, Kristen filed a false restraining order in Family Court, right before Ashley and I were supposed to have a hearing, after the Vermont Supreme Court reversed the previous ruling. Family Court was the inappropriate venue for her to file, but she only did it there and then to help influence the court surrounding her friend, Ashley.
MARCH, 2008: After bashing heads with my PO and the system, I was dishonorably discharged on March 25, 2008. I also got a lot of visitation for my daughter, after a reversal from the Vermont Supreme Court, on March 24, 2008. I checked some comments on my pictures on Myspace and noticed Ashley left a comment, and I discovered, while going through her Myspace profile, that she and Kristen are friends. That made a lot more sense than my initial thoughts that my PO was setting me up. I also discovered that Ashley's uncle, Ted Terjelian, is on the Maine Internet Sex Offender Registry for intentionally subjecting someone under the age of 14 to a sexual act.
(Ashley and her boyfriend were vulgar and threatening toward me around my daughter most of the time, including the boyfriend, Robert Meek, threatening me to my daughter with something that ended in "...with a shotgun" on April 11, 2008. They just stopped visits at the end of July, 2008, because I got sick of dealing with Ashley's mouth and told the police she was driving without a license. If she didn't say anything, while breaking the law, then she would have never gotten in trouble. We had a hearing at the end of August, 2008 for custody and visitation. The judge ignored me and the fact that Ashley is a psychopath and that it didn't matter what he said to her. He said they would just continue visits, thinking that it mattered if Ashley promised to appear, and she has never appeared, because she just wants to hide her abuse of my daughter. I filed an appeal for custody. Also in August, there was a pre-trial conference for my lawsuit on the second, but only Ashley and Robert appeared. They were asked if they knew who the Places were, and Robert said they 'had no idea who they are.' I didn't like that Kristen's father wasn't going to be held responsible, because he had moved so the Court didn't have a reliable address for him, so on September 20, 2008, I chose to e-mail her a not so nice e-mail to try to get her to file something so that I could have a way of getting her father's address through her. She didn't respond in anyway, and I learned she was going around claiming I "raped" her. I sent her a harsher e-mail on September 28, 2008 so that I could get her address to sue her and to follow through on my suit against her father. That did not get her to respond in anyway, so I just decided to try another way if there was another way. On October 7, 2008, the VSC, as well as Ashley, received my briefs for custody of my daughter. On October 17, 2008, the VSC, as well as Ashley, received a request to file a supplemental brief since I didn't have the transcripts before I filed the first brief, and the supplemental brief would really show the conspiracy between Ashely and Kristen. On October 20, 2008, a State Trooper came to my house, because Kristen claimed that my 54 year old female friend and I were sitting outside her house in my friend's "gold car." The car was destroyed in an accident in January, 2008, but it's the car Kristen remembers from when she stalked me. At court on November 7, 2008, Kristen admitted to being on the phone with Ashley on October 20, 2008, three days after Ashley received the same thing the VSC did where I told them I could prove the conspiracy between Ashley and Kristen, so they tried preventing me from being able to file that.)
