His Side <http://www.hisside.com/> : Father Spends 3 Months in Jail for
Returning Phone Call
One of the greatest dangers men and fathers face today is the way
restraining orders based on false domestic violence allegations are used to
drive fathers out of their children's lives. There have been numerous
documented cases of decent fathers being arrested for sending their children
birthday cards, attending their son's Little League games, or calling their
own children at the wrong time of the day. Last night on His Side with Glenn
Sacks <http://www.hisside.com/> Craig, a Seattle father of two who was
sentenced to three months in jail for returning his ex-wife's phone call,
told his story.
According to Massachusetts attorney Gregory Hession, "The restraining order
law is one of the most unconstitutional acts ever passed. A court can issue
an order that boots you out of your house, never lets you see your children
again, and takes your money, all without you even knowing that a hearing
took place." Elaine Epstein, former president of the Massachusetts Womenıs
Bar Association, writes that restraining orders are doled out "like candy"
and that when dealing with domestic violence accusations, "the facts have
become irrelevant."
According to Stephen Baskerville <http://users.rcn.com/baskerville/> of the
American Coalition for Fathers and Children <http://www.acfc.org/> , "The
real purpose of restraining orders is not so much to prevent violence as to
eliminate one parent during divorce proceedings. This is now common
knowledge in legal circles....a government analysis found that fewer than
half of all restraining orders involved even an allegation of physical
violence."
This embattled Seattle father told his story on His Side with Glenn Sacks
<http://www.hisside.com/> on KRLA 870 AM <http://www.krla870.com/> in Los
Angeles and KKOL AM 1300 <http://www.1300kol.com/> in Seattle/Tacoma at 11
PM on Sunday, September 7. Also joining Glenn were family law attorney Lisa
Scott <http://www.hisside.com/lisascott.htm> and private investigator Roger
Montgomery <http://www.fathersrightsinvestigations.com/> of Fathers' Rights
Investigations <http://www.fathersrightsinvestigations.com/> . To listen to

Some of the callers included:
1) Henry, who left an angry message on his ex-wife's machine after she
sabotaged his court ordered visitation with his daughter, and who was
handcuffed, arrested and dragged away from his daughter's basketball game
due to a restraining order based on that phone message.
2) Jay, a Seattle father who had a restraining order made against him even
though Family Court Services investigators determined that his ex-wife had
fabricated the allegations. She was never charged and he has not been
allowed to see his son for two years.
3) Denise, whose former daughter-in-law deserted her children and then later
kidnaped them.
4) Warren, a Los Angeles father who pointed to the funding gravy train from
the Federal "Violence Against Women Act" as the source of many anti-male
domestic violence policies.

violence are used to separate fathers from their children, see Stephen
