News about Rica

[Bassios]

I'm really not sure what's going on right now, but Rica's just messaged me on MSN and asked me to tell you all that she's safe, sound and unharmed in the women's crisis centre.

I don't know what's happened, but I've been asked to pass the message on, so surely someone here knows what's happened.

 

[AlcoholicPancake]

Well, I suppose that's very good to hear, but at the same time pretty troubling because we seem to have no idea what's going on... Ehhh, I'll see if I can get a hold of one of her friends from around here today to find out what the hell is going on.  

[Rica is insane]

Hey guys I'm at my Dad's so I figured it's about time I filled you guys in. Aside from those I already told in the IRC. As you're all pretty much aware my Mom's husband is a a*****e.

What you probably don't know is that he's actually quite dangerous. He's been abusing my mother and his son for some time. I didn't know that it was going on with my mother but I did his son but I never could say anything because my Mom would just shoot it down.

Now he's down in Georgia and my Mom finds out he's been sending out Craigslist ads to get young girls to be with him. While we're up here taking care of his son and daughter. That snapped Mom into reality and she's going to divorce him and fight for custody of my half-sister Evie.

However he started to threaten to come up here, knowing he's dangerous we asked the police down in the area he lived in in Georgia to check and see if his car was still there. My mom begged them not to approach him because he was DANGEROUS. They decide to ignore that and not only go up to the door to talk to him but inform him that she was the one who called.

This morning rolls around Mom wakes me up to explain that she found child pornography videos on the computer, on his computer, the one he didn't allow anyone but Mom and himself on. She had already called the police and they came over, discussed it, and confiscated the computer in question. (Not my own because he wasn't ever on there.)

Mom proceeds to call child protective services to talk about what to do with my step-brother because none of us want us to go there and live with him for obvious reasons. They start asking about exact dates of the abuse and asking for his phone number to contact him about getting my step-brother. Even after she told them he was abusive and he will drive all the way up here to hurt us if he knew she called CPS.

As a result we end up leaving to go to the women's crisis center, hang out there for a while before my Dad picks me and my siblings up. So I'm hanging out here for the next day or two (especially since there is no Internet at home for the time being since the company didn't get the bill yet.)

That's what happened. I'm perfectly safe, nothing to worry about. Things were just a bit scary there for a moment.

I'm glad you're safe, Rica, and I hope your family is able to get everything worked out. Your mom's husband sounds like a real creep.  

[Thaliat Everwood]

Holy crap. I'm glad you all are safe.

Cops can be dumb about these things sadly. I'm glad your mom was smart enough to get you all out of the house just in case.  

[Rica is insane]

@Wakusei- He IS a creep. He's done a huge list of things that are just terrible. At one point he even utterly humiliated me and made my family think I was a *****. (No that wasn't the first CP incident that had happened. Except last time I was blamed for it.)

@Thal- Yeah, they went back but they've pretty much have the house barricaded. They're using objects to block the doors in case he manages to break in. (He can't break the windows, it's damn near impossible. And the only way he could get past the bolt-locks is with a gun.)

 

[Taeryyn]

I'm really glad you're ok, Rica. sad That sounds like a really, really scary thing to go through.  

[invisible-weirdo]

Oh gosh that sound scary D: So glad you're safe though.  

[Erverain]

Wow. I really miss a lot.
Glad you came out in one piece; it doesn't always end well.

Aren't you happy that people care?  

[Jafthasleftthebuilding]

Glad to hear you're all right. Don't live in fear, but stay alert. 3nodding

[I was thinking Lifetime movie material. >_>]  

[Roland Karloseth]

"I've been burned so bad...

Still glad to hear things are alright now, Rica. .___.

...but I still play with fire!"

 

[Rica is insane]

@Tae and Invis- It was pretty scary but I luckily managed to keep my head on straight through it all. My Mom and Dad said they were proud of me for that. c:

@Erve- Yes you do. razz My life has enough content for it's own soap opera.

I'm quite happy, it's nice to know if I ever end up in that position I have people I can turn to.

@Jaft- LOL I could turn my life into a money maker that's for sure. I have enough content for three Lifetime movies. xD

@Roland- Yes I'm quite alright now. Things are calmed down for the time being.  

[O h a y a r i]

Very glad to know you're alright Rica. I don't understand people like that. I mean where the hell does that come from? Thinking that s**t is okay and stuff?

I can see how your rents would be proud of you too, being mature and keeping your head on straight in that situation is very big  

[God-Raped-Me]

(Cut and paste what others have said about Rica being alright)

Make sure you keep yourself safe! This guy is completely ******** in the head and I wouldn't put it past him to try some crazy s**t now or even in the future. As soon as you can put as much distance as possible between you and him! I suggest you talk your family into doing the same!

I hate when friends might maybe be in trouble... I worry. sad Keep us updated though eh?  

[Rica is insane]

Well...update time.

My Dad is moving into this house. My Mom and Nana are fleeing the state tonight. I'm sick, tired, and everything seems to hate me lately. I've been helping them get things together ALL ******** day. My brother gets home, boots me off MY computer which I've only been on for half an hour. Then he acts like a douche when I want on after he tries getting on a SECOND time. Argh..

Hopefully my Dad is bringing his computer tonight then I can move MINE into MY room where it ******** belongs. s**t. I'm starting to hate my life again. Everything seems against me having a shred of happiness.
