There are moments in life when remaining silent becomes increasingly difficult, especially when that silence allows others to form opinions based on information that is incomplete or simply untrue.

For the better part of a year I’ve remained silent, as I don’t believe in posting personal information (good or bad). That silence has come at the cost of my reputation being tarnish for life. That I can deal with, as god knows the truth. But when it becomes about my child and my employees, I can no longer remain silent. This post isn’t for me. My life and my businesses are changed forever. I’m forced to post this, against advice of counsel, to protect my 3.5 year old daughter, who will undoubtedly have this false information shoved in her face by a stranger in a few years from now and equally as important, this post is for my 255 employees who are now being targeted and who are suffering because of these fabricated lies. This is how my staff supports their families people!!!!

Several years ago I sinned. I’m a sinner. I sinned and had a child out of wedlock with a complete stranger. BUT that sin, has now turned into the biggest gift god has EVER given me. A beautiful, gorgeous healthy daughter who I’m so so proud of to now call our little family of 2.

For the past 3+ year now, I’ve been involved in a deeply personal and difficult custody matter involving my young daughter. Throughout that time, I’ve tried to keep these matters private, as I believe every child deserves to grow up without the details their family life becoming a public conversation. That opportunity for her to grow up that way has now been eviscerated.

In October 2023 I explained to my child’s mother, that while I have so much love and respect for being the mother of my child, and I’m thankful for the gift she has even us, I didn’t want to have a romantic relationship with her, that “I just wanted to focus on being the absolute best dad I could be”. Two weeks later I was served with court papers as a defendant in CT, and was notified the mother was seeking sole custody. I have been in court ever since.

The judge appointed to our case is a women who is a pro-women and BLM activist and was appointed by the Governor. This person unfortunately chose to put politics and personal beliefs over fairness and protecting the one person they were hired to protect in all this and the only one that matters in all this. And they also refused to deal with and reconize the mental illness aspect of this case.

The following are facts, not opinions:

– Over 50+ different motions filed against me trying to separate us.

– 79 court order violations. Driving home from CT in tears with an empty baby seat. (ZERO PENALTIES)

– Hidden air tags in my car (ZERO PENALTIES)

– 4 false ex partes separating me from my daughter 4-6 weeks at a time (NO PENALTIES)

– 1 false allegation of physical assault with DCYF (ZERO PENALTIES)

– 2 false allegations of rape with DCYF (ZERO PENALTIES)

– 20 posters hung on Block Island defaming my businesses (ZERO PENALTIES)

Each time the courts did noting, she got more and more brazen and raised the stakes higher and higher. As I lost more and more time with my daughter and spent more and more money fighting to stay in my daughter’s life, the courts sat silent. As the mother opened up endless credit cards, charged all her legal fees, then claim bankruptcy and didn’t pay a dime.

In March of this year, when after 3 years in court and endless false accusations – the judge handed down her custody decision, and the mother DIDN’T get full custody. Two days later, with no risk of penalties or prosecution – she raised the bar AGAIN to the ultimate level and filed a false police report stating I raped by daughter for the 3rd time. But this time was different, they went ALL in, that police report magically made its way on line now for the world to see (including my daughter).

FACTS: There was never a police investigation because DCYF came right out in court and in their report and said the mother was making it all up. My daughter could never speak like that and DCYF comes right out and says “daddy didn’t do that” when they interviewed her away from the mother. If you take the time and pull the transcript, they suggest next false allegation, that criminal charges be filed. I still had to hire criminal defense just in case because of the seriousness of this accusation. (See photo attached of the DCYF decision).

Here is where this has left me:

– $185,000 in court fees and still climbing FAST

– Cancellation of by daughters college fund due to lack of money now. It would have been $385,000 when she was 18.

– My businesses all in ruins with 4 of them closed for good and my employees now suffering because of boycotts of my businesses.

– Forced to sell our home where my daughter loved and was familiar with, so we could afford keep fighting for one another.

– My reputation tarnished for life. Forever posts on line calling me a rapist.

Yes life looks much different now…..my daughter would have never had to want for anything ever again in her life…….thats all gone now……but guess what…..that doesn’t matter anymore.

I still see my daughter 2-3x weekly and we still love each other very much.

A mentally ill person, a defunct / failing politically charged court system or a women activist can’t ever take away the bond me and my daughter share. They can lessen my time with her, they can drive me into poverty, they can ruin my business and my reputation, but we still have our love for one another . For that god, I thank you.

This post was for my daughter and my employees. I love to both very much and I’m truly sorry you both have to go through this. You both deserve so much better. Unfortunately this won’t spread 1 / 100th of the pace the false accusations did, but I’m happy the people that matter to me, know the truth.
