#DomesticViolence : More LIES !!

John Wrighty in his latest blog post tells of his despair and frustration at the injustice of the British Family Court system and the small victims, his three children caught up in the middle of this eternal nightmare.

John explains...

I feel I have to interrupt  the telling of my story with a current update to my family court situation due to receiving another 5 pages of lies in the form of a witness statement from my Wife regarding my indirect contact with my children and her contact with the Cafcass worker. The interesting fact about the Family Court statement is that is is somewhat at odds to the criminal court statement. In effect, my wife is tailoring her evidence to fit the circumstances because she knows if she told the truth I would not be in the position I am now. As previously mentioned I spoke with the Cafcass worker about a month ago now and, before she met me, she had a meeting with my Wife in the morning to listen to her arguments (lies) about why I should not see my 3 kids. After telling her my side of things which took over two hours, the Cafcass worker mentioned to me that my Wife had alleged that my little girl was now very afraid of men because of what she had witnessed with me and her mother....read more

#DomesticViolence: The Investigation.

John Wrighty continues his story, a male victim of domestic violence.

Quote

After being bailed by Officers from Derbyshire Police I was at a very low point in my life so I went on the sick at work as the stress was making me ill. I took up the offer of counselling from Greater Manchester Police and my sessions were with the same person I had seen previously before the incident this did help me to some degree but I could not get away from the shame I was feeling at admitting I had suffered abuse and threats at the hands of my Wife. What were my family and friends thinking about me and also my colleagues the shame I was feeling was unbearable but I knew I had to fight on and prove my innocence? On the 5th of January 2010 I sent my solicitor a list of 12 people who had witnessed incidents and injuries on myself and also a family friend who my Wife had attacked some years earlier was also willing to give evidence on my behalf. This amounted to a total of 18 incidents where injuries had been noted on myself which were contained within the evidence from these 12 witnesses. That should help so you would think!!......read more

#DomesticViolence : Video - Abuse Through The Eyes Of A Child.

Once upon a time there was a girl
In her early years she had to learn

How to grow up living in a war that she called home
Never know just where to turn for shelter from the storm
Hurt me to see the pain across my mother's face
Every time my father's fist would put her in her place
Hearing all the yelling I would cry up in my room
Hoping it would be over soon

Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
Every morning that I wake I look back to yesterday

And I'm OK

#DomesticViolence :Abuse Against Men - Why Is So Little Documented ?

There are many reasons why we don't know more about domestic abuse and violence against men.  First of all, the incidence of domestic violence reported men appears to be so low that it is hard to get reliable estimates.  In addition, it has taken years of advocacy and support to encourage women to report domestic violence. Virtually nothing has been done to encourage men to report abuse.  The idea that men could be victims of domestic abuse and violence is so unthinkable that many men will not even attempt to report the situation. 

The dynamic of domestic abuse and violence is also different between men and women.  The reasons, purposes and motivations are often very different between sexes.  Although the counseling and psychological community have responded to domestic abuse and violence against women, there has been very little investment in resources to address and understand the issues of domestic abuse and violence against men.  In most cases, the actual physical damage inflicted by men is so much greater than the actual physical harm inflected by women.  The impact of domestic violence is less apparent and less likely to come to the attention of others when men are abused.  For example, it is assumed than a man with a bruise or black eye was in a fight with another man or was injured on the job or playing contact sports.  Even when men do report domestic abuse and violence, most people are so astonished men usually end up feeling like nobody believes them.

#DomesticViolence : Katelyn Markham Is Missing - Listen To John Carter And His 911 Call - Somethings Not Right - Is Katelyn The Most Deadliest Victim Of Domestic Violence - Murder ?

Please remember that not only children are victims of faked abductions by their parents . Adults also play the same game, they kill their partner, hide their body then claim they are missing!

Please review the principles of analysis of 911 calls.

Guilty callers often begin with a greeting, focus upon themselves and even skip asking for help for the victim.

http://www.fox19.com/story/15295662/police-release-911-call-reporting-katelyn-markhams-disappearance?redirected=true

Please note that Statement Analysis and Commentary is in bold type.  You can listen here to it at the foxnews link.  

John Carter: Hi, my name is John Carter, I am calling - I know that you're not supposed to report a missing person after - before 24 hours, but my fiancee is missing, I can't find her anywhere. 1.  "hi"   Please note the that call begins with a greeting.  Dr. Susan Adams, in her study of 911 calls of domestic homicide found that a call that begins with a greeting is more likely to be a guilty caller.  There were other aspects of her study including who the caller asks for help for:  himself, or the victim, for example. The guilty caller focuses upon his own self, rather than the victim, and may even disparage the victim.  2.  Please note that there is no use of her name indicating a problem in the relationship. He says "my fiance" without using her name.   911 Dispatcher: Okay, where'd you see her last? J: Um, I saw her at like 12 o' clock last night. She stays in a house by herself, um, so, she - I'm just, I'm really nervous. Her car's still there, her purse is still - The 911 operator should never interrupt.  Please note the phrase, "I'm really nervous"; not just "nervous" but "really" nervous.  This is a focus upon the caller himself, not the victim.  Innocent callers focus upon the victim and ask for help, specifically, for the victim.  D: Is there an address? J: Yeah, 5214 Dorshire Drive. D: 5214? J: Dorshire, yes. D: Okay. And you're out there now? J: Um, I'm heading out there now, I, like, have been trying to get ahold of her and I decided to go by her house to see if she's okay, and her car's still there - she would be at work right now with her car. Which is why I'm like really freaking out. 1.  Note that the question, "you're there now?" is sensitive to John Carter who did not say "no", but avoiding answering it directly.   2.  He is only going to "go by her house" and reports being in transit, rather than simply stating he is going there.   3.  "to see" is the same as "because", indicating the need to tell why he is doing something rather than report what he is doing.  4.  "and her car's still there";  is he there now, and can see that her car is still there, or is he just "heading out there" now? 5.  "I'm like really freaking out" now uses two words to modify "freaking out", making it very sensitive.  This should question if he really is "freaking out".  Again, note focus upon himself and his wellbeing.  D: What's her name? J: Katelyn Helene Markham. D: Have you called the hospitals or jails or anything? J: Um - D: Where was she at midnight last night when you last saw her? J: She was at her house. She was going to bed. She wasn't going out to do anything, so she would've been in her bed. And I mean, I've been with her for 6 years - she's not deceiving, you know, she doesn't - What someone tells us in the negative is sensitive.  Here he has three things to tell us what she was not doing:  not going out "to do anything"; not deceiving, and doesn't, but stops himself or is interrupted.  D: Okay, and you guys didn't have an argument or anything? J: Not at all. "Not at all" is not the simple "no" D: Okay. Is she on any medications or anything? J: Not at all. D: Has she had thoughts of suicide or anything like that? J: No. Never. I... never. Broken sentence means missing information.  D: All right. And have you talked to her mom or anybody like that, to see if maybe she's out shopping, or - ? J: I called her father. The only thing that's not there is her cell phone, which is positive, but she's not answering it. So... and the Sacred Heart Festival is going on right up the street, and there's a lot of questionable people there, and it's just kind of. I'm sorry. The question is answered, but then he goes beyond the question to talk about the Festival, casting suspicion towards those at it.  Note "I'm sorry" is often found in the language of the guilty, no matter what its usage is.  See Casey Anthony  D: Okay, well, we'll go ahead and have somebody meet you there. What kind of vehicle are you going to be in? J: A 2008 Ford Docus. It's red. D: Okay, we'll have somebody come out and speak with you, okay? J: Okay, thank you. D: Mmmhmm. Bye. J: Okay. Bye. Please note that he did not express concern for the victim.  Please note that he did not ask for help for the victim.  Please note that he went beyond the realm of the questions.  Please note the greeting, and the phrase, "I'm sorry" There is enough in this call, by itself, to be concerned that he may be responsible for her disappearance.

#DomesticViolence : The ARREST !

As my Wife’s parents entered the house I was still restraining my Wife on the floor in the hallway, trying to prevent her continuing attacks, with my back to them. I knew they were there and shouted for them to hurry to which my Wife replied, “Fucking golden balls again. She will stick up for you.” Her mum immediately came to us and I stood back and went into the living room to get away from my Wife as she was still thrashing about trying to hit me. I picked up the house phone as I was contemplating phoning the Police as I could take no more. I was in utter agony after the three kicks to the groin. My head and shoulder were hurting where she had hit me.

I did not ring the police. I wish I had as my Wife then said she was going to ring and asked her mother for her mobile. She then went for me again and aimed another kick at my groin but her mother grabbed hold of her. I shouted at her to stop and that it should be me ringing the Police and not her. Her mother was struggling to keep hold of her and she shouted for help from her husband who grabbed my Wife around the waist who then aimed another kick at my groin. Does this sound like the action of a beaten woman? She was wild, aggressive and determined to attack me....read more

Natalie Esack : #DomesticViolence Ends In Murder.

 
A former detective was arrested yesterday for allegedly stabbing his hairdresser wife to death in her salon.
Natalie Esack, in her 30s, is thought to have left her husband of eight years Ivan Esack around a month ago, taking her pets with her as she moved out.
Staff at neighbouring businesses said they heard a terrifying scream ring out from her shop yesterday morning and saw two other hairdressers running into the street.

Dramatic tale: Natalie Esack, left, was found covered in stab wounds at her salon this morning, an hour before police arrested her estranged husband Ivan, right

A knife was recovered from the scene in the High Street in Ashford, Kent, and her ex-partner, now a football agent, was later arrested at the couple’s former three-bedroomed home a few miles away.
Neighbours there said Mrs Esack had last been seen around a month ago, and had taken her pet cats and dog with her when she left.
Last night her 38-year-old husband was in custody and being questioned by detectives from Kent Police – the force he left two years ago to set himself up as a football agent.
A neighbour of the couple, who would not give her name, said: ‘I met them both at a Neighbourhood Watch street party last summer. She was quiet but he was more outgoing and talkative.
‘They seemed a pleasant couple. He told me he wanted to be more involved in politics and become a councillor.’
Charles Goodwin, 49, a mortgage broker who runs a business in an office three doors along from Esack Hair and Beauty, said he had waved to Mrs Esack earlier on the morning of her death – and had known the couple since arranging their joint mortgage eight years ago.
He said: ‘I heard a scream, a loud scream, this morning. I thought it was just kids messing about.
‘It was only when I saw three police cars and an ambulance pull up here that I knew something was wrong.

Shocking violence: Police launched an investigation after finding the seriously injured woman at the salon at 9.40am

‘The police put a cordon up around the shop and then all the girls who work there came out of the shop. The only person who didn’t come out was Natalie. It’s just so, so sad.’
He said Mrs Esack was a ‘really lovely bubbly character’. A former colleague working at Elegant Nails and Beauty, which is also thought to have been owned by Mr Esack, said staff were devastated.
She said: ‘You will not find a single person with a negative thing to say about her. She was the loveliest person. I have spent the whole morning in tears, we all have. It is just so tragic. We are all completely shocked by it. She was a local girl, we’re all just thinking about her family.’
Mrs Esack had several high-profile clients. They included Vic Reeves’ wife Nancy Sorrell, who lives with the comedian nearby in Charing, Kent, and Lesley Hogben, wife of television antique expert Michael Hogben.
Mrs Hogben said at the opening of Esack Hair and Beauty in 2008, in a local paper interview: ‘I have been a customer of Natalie’s in her previous salons so, no doubt, I will use this one too.’
Mrs Sorrell, who appeared in I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here in 2004, attended the opening of the salon in 2008.

Tragic: The hairdresser, who was in her 30s, died from her stab wounds after ambulances waited outside the salon throughout the morning

Mr Esack is the owner and director of IAE Football Ltd which, according to its website, ‘is an agency representing professional footballers and coaches throughout the United Kingdom’.
Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha, who has been linked to a move to Premier League clubs including Manchester United, is pictured on IAE’s website – although Mr Esack is not the official agent for the player. 

Popular shop: A man working near the hairdressers said he heard 'shouting and screaming' before police arrived on the busy street

In a profile of himself, Mr Esack says he ‘spent several years working as a criminal investigator for one of the country’s largest police forces’.
It adds: ‘During my time as a police officer I encountered many different people from a whole range of interesting and diverse backgrounds.
‘However, my first love has always been football and it has been my ultimate dream to be involved in the football industry.
'In January 2010 I left the police force and embarked on the tough process of obtaining my players’ agent licence.
'I’m pleased to say that I was successful in passing the agents exam at the first attempt and obtained the necessary insurance and signed the code of conduct, which resulted in the Football Association issuing my licence.’
Mr Esack, originally from Middlesbrough, added: ‘Honesty and integrity is a vital ingredient in any working relationship and I can personally guarantee that I am a person that people can trust and confide in with confidentiality assured at all times.’
A Kent Police spokesman confirmed: ‘A 38-year-old Ashford man was arrested an hour later at an address in the town on suspicion of murder and is currently in custody.’
A post-mortem examination is due to take place today.
