Justice For Children

This battle started in the year 2001 in Tarrant County Texas. I found my new husband leaving my 9-year-old daughters room after she had fallen asleep. I asked what he was doing, He said, “Tucking her in” I replied” but she was already asleep” He said,” no she wasn't." I thought it was unusual because I had checked on Tabitha twenty minutes before and she was sound asleep.

Tabitha again had fallen asleep one afternoon when I was 8 months pregnant. When she woke me from a nap on the couch by nudging my shoulder and told me that her stepfather had just been touching her chest. I replied with, "I am glad that he did not lay his leg over you because you would have never got out from under it being that it is so heavy."

On March 9, 2001 I got a call from Child Protective Services. They wanted me to come in and talk to them. When I got there an investigator told me that Tabi had told her that my new husband had been fondling her, and showing her his genitals and described what had came out of it. She said he would flash her and rub her bottom. I did not believe her because I thought Tabi was jealous that I had just got married in February of that year and just had a baby boy. The investigator said that I must find another place away from my husband for Tabi to stay while she investigated for 30 days. Tabi was not to have any contact with my new husband. I did as she said and placed her not knowingly with the very friend that had turned the case into Child Protective Services.

My husband was interrogated and admitted to showing his genitals to her. That's all he admitted to at that time.

On April 13, 2001 I drove my car to pick up Tabitha from school. I waited for her to come to the car. Almost every child was picked up when I decided to go into the office and ask where my child was. As I walked into the office I saw the investigator and I knew then what she was there for. She told me that she was taking Tabitha to foster care because she had substantiated the claim that my new husband in fact had molested Tabi and while the investigation was updating me she said I had let my husband and daughter be together (I knew was a lie) so therefore I was not protecting my child. The investigator took Tabi from school and placed her into foster care. The investigator also asked the judge if she could remove my 4-month-old son from my home but the judge said not to place him in foster care because he is the biological son of my husband and is a boy so he is less likely to be harmed by my husband.

The Child Protective Services offered my husband to take a polygraph test in return all the charges would be dropped. He read a few books on how polygraph test work and went and took one on his own terms in Arlington Texas on Roosevelt street. I went in with him and the man asking the questions asked what all he is being accused of so he can make up the questions for the test. He then asked if there are any questions that he does not want him to ask him and I was a little disturbed when he said, “yes, don't ask me any questions that do not involve Tabi, do not ask questions about any other children.” The man asked me to wait outside in the car while they do the questioning. When he came out and sat in the drivers seat. I asked him how it went and he said that he failed it. I asked how could that happen if you didn't do it? He replied, “ The man said some people fail just saying their name on the test” I asked so did you fail your name?” He replied, “No, This won't ever be spoken of again, you understand?” I fearfully replied “ok”

I hired a lawyer. When she went down to the District attorneys office She had found that the talk of the crowd was that the headlines for the Fort Worth Star Telegram was going to be “Johnson Family Has Naked Pillow Fights” I was shocked but she somehow made sure the press did not print it.

My husband had criminal charges put on him in which he barrowed money to post bail  of $10,000 before he went and turned himself in. It took all of twenty minutes for him to turn himself in get through the admitting and discharge process of the Tarrant County Jail. Later the criminal charges were dismissed the not only did District Attorney lost the file in the computer system but After about 6 months.Tabi recanted her story and was allowed t o come back home on the condition that I place an alarm on her door at night. I did so until we moved in with my husband’s friend.

On September 21, 2004 I found my husband and Tabi locked in her room together arguing. My husband came out and walked quickly past me, Tabi ran up to me and said, “I'm afraid he is going to do it again Mom”. I was shocked, my heart fell into the pit of my stomach, and it was then that I believed my husband was violating my daughter.

I confronted him and he quickly admitted to what he had done to Tabi. He told me that he had wanted to tell me a long ago but I kept interrupting him or changing the subject. I asked him how much was true and he said everything that Tabi had told to the Child protective service investigator (Tami Long) I placed a baby monitoring system in her room so I would know if he would come into her room at night. At this point I was trying to catch him in the act so I could take it to the police for proof.

On September 16, 2005 I packed up my kids and left him. I went to the Women's Shelter in Midland, Texas.  In order to live there I had to press charges on the person that I am trying to get away from so I contacted the police department and told them everything. I contacted a lawyer and was told that because I had no proof that he touched his own biological kids, getting supervised visitation was remote. I sent Tabi to live with her father and I went back to my husband with our two kids so that I could monitor the interaction between my husband and my minor children. When the police department called about the charges I told them everything was fine. They place misdemeanor charges on me for making a false report to police officer/law enforcement.

I asked him to get counseling but he refused saying they would put him in jail. He said, “Do you know what they do to people like me in jail”? I asked him if he would see a catholic priest because ha priest can't turn him in and he once again refused. I asked him to get counseling but tell the counselor that he only had thoughts of this and he once again for the third time said no.

I tried everything I knew to get him into counseling. I didn't want him to touch our children. I myself tried to talk to him about his past. He talked about how he would do the same things to his half sister that he had done to Tabi, but did not have the same thoughts toward his other half sister.

He also did these things to other kids. He talked about his stepsister, and how she would sexually molest him and his brothers on numerous occasions. He cried about how awful his childhood was.

After living with her dad for a while, Tabi was kicked out  so I got her and brought her home. until she found a place called Job Corps, I took her to live there.

I did everything I could to sexually satisfy my husband. I got laser hair removal treatments weekly. I had breast implants done thinking that would make a difference in our sexual activities. He introduced me to the swinger lifestyle. I did things sexually that I didn't know existed. He and I gave blowjobs to men and he received them from men. We had group sex. He had me use a vibrator on him for anal sex performed on him and wanted me to dress him in drag. I did all this believing it would keep him away from my kids.

I talked with his family and his mother told me how he found her son made to sit and watch the step sister and her other son having sex so she made her move out of the house. I talked with his family and they even told me about how the stepsister also sexually molested my husbands other brothers.

I once witnessed my husband’s brothers, while they were teenagers, going into the room and having sex with a girl. My mother in-law, laughed and said, “My boys are getting them some". Later they talked about how she was a slut.

In the recent year I have found many pictures and videos on my youngest daughter's phone of her private area. I thought she had just been curious so I told her to use a mirror and not to take pictures anymore. I found more pictures. I recently found a video on her computer that was taken from a windows phone that her father had given her.

As I continually told my husband that I hated him for what he did to Tabi, I went to college and told him often that when our youngest child turns 18 years old, that I was leaving him. I wanted to make sure I could get a good job when I left this monster. Having ADHD it was difficult and took several years but in 2014 I recieved my associates in Allied Health Sciences. I have a few more years to go to become a registered nurse.

In the swinging lifestyle, he found a man's wife that he fell in love with. Her husband and I once found them having sex in my sons bed in which we found disturbing. I got the news on Easter Sunday 2012 that my husband and his new girlfriend (a teacher) wanted to move in together. With her husband and my husband in the room I said, "On one condition will I let this happen", I turned to my husband and said, "You tell this woman (a teacher) what you did to my daughter, Tabi." he stated, "If your going to talk about this than I'm going to leave." I felt that her knowing was important. If he gets unsupervised visitation than she would help make sure he wouldn't touch them. I told her what he had done. She then went and spoke with my husband outside and came back in and sat down. Her husband asked her, 'Well, what did he have to say?" The teacher replied with,“He is unclear about if he did it or not.” 

I moved outside the home into a camper with my children. My children are not 18 years of age yet. On May 18, 2012 I contacted Child protective services and explained everything. They placed Failure to protect on me and Threat to harm on him. I received $500 from him the week I left him, and the temporary custody order was July 11th 2012. They postponed the temporary order until August 21st but gave him supervised visitation and set child support at $200 a month. He told me he will give me money if I don't have Tabi testify, he offered that I only take $5,000 for the sell of our house. He wanted me to go from owning 51% of our company to  9% of the company with unlimited access to the children, if I did not agree than he would not pay me any money.  I chose no money. 

The camper I lived in I placed in my parents backyard. Although our tax return states that we made over $200,000 for 2011, I am now on food stamps. The towing company he placed me as being 51% ownership of was used for me being a woman business owner minority and my Indian benefits. He locked me out of my house and my business. Because he owned the phone account he placed all our phones on restriction so we can only call each other and my Internet is band on my phone. He also took advantage of AT&T 's family follow a phone program and on June 12, 2012 I received a text message saying, “AT&T FamilyMap: Security Message – You can be located by the following numbers: ***-57*-29*9.” 

He did all the business records and we only filed on things that had insurance or other companies involved. All cash was put under the table. It is easy to say he makes next to no money so getting child support ordered would was difficult. People in this small town know each other and won't give me much information on my own business, even with proof that I am 51% ownership of my company.

Now that I no longer live with my husband, my oldest daughter, Tabi has told me more details about what he has done.  I have learned that my son was in the bed with Tabi and watched while he would fondle her and he made sure to turn porn movies on while he did this to her. He set a timer for porn to come on in the middle of the day (I remembered this happening but figured it was a flaw with the DVR) My husband promised Tabi that when she turned 18 that he would marry her. I have read a text message from my son to his father stating, “When I talked to the counselor I held it all in dad”. He remembers hiding in the closet from his father with his older sister. My eleven-year-old daughter still wets the bed. I took her in to get ultrasound testing done on December 28 2012, as a result it ruled out any medical reasons as to why she would be wetting the bed. When I talk to my husband about what he did to Tabi, he never denies what he did. 

Places we lived where he molested and some of the times he molested Tabi in her words:

·      Willow Branch Dr. Arlington, TX

According to the Investigation Report Tabi says he is coming to my bed at night, digs in her panties. She admitted to self-inflicted wounds by cutting with knives and razorblades.

He used to come in and rub my bottom and I would pretend like I was asleep. Bubba (my baby brother) would be in the bed with me.

On the way to one of his jobs installing for dish network, Driving down I-30 He asked me if I had ever kissed anyone before, i said no, he asked if I knew what French kissing was and I said no he asked if I wanted to learn I said either I didn't know or I didn't want to. He said he would teach me. I said you are making it sound like what happened before I went to foster care really did happen and he said yes you need to stop lying to yourself. It was silent for a while. Then he asked me if I wanted a cigarette that it would help you calm down because I was scared and shaking, and I said no. I am a swimmer I can not smoke.

I started cutting on myself

During the school year in the fall my stepfather had put satellite in my room. The DVR was in the living room and it was programmable. After 9:00 my bedtime I still was not asleep, my TV was on it changed to porn. It was 2 women. I looked away to roll over, my baby brother was asleep in bed with me, and I looked up and my stepfather was in my doorway. he told me I needed to roll back over and watch it or I would be in trouble. He turned off the tv from the living room. 

The next day, he asked if I liked it, I told him I had never seen anything like that before. He said those women were sexy and it turned him on and I needed to be like that. 

That night it happened again, the porn came on, I looked at the doorway and he was there he saw that I saw him and he came in, I tried to pretend like I was asleep. He walked to the side of my bed; my baby brother was sleeping next to me. He sat on the bed near my knees and started rubbing my legs on top of the blankets, he said he knew I was awake and needed to open my eyes and watch so I did what I was told. We watched the porn for a few minutes and then he pulled the blanket off of my brother and me. I was wearing shorts, he rubbed his hand from my knee to where my short shorts ended, he did that for a while and then he moved up my shirt to my stomach and touched my boobs, played with my nipples. I started to cry but didn't make any noise. He told me I needed to calm down, that it would be ok. And then he ran his hand back to my inner thigh and went up my shorts. I started yelling for mom, while he was doing that with his right hand he punched me in my stomach with his left hand and told me not to wake up mom that it would hurt her feelings. I started bawling, my brother was awake by this time. My stepfather was mad at me and said look what you did. My brother sat up and my stepfather positioned him on the opposite side of from what he was and positioned him to watch porn. I cried as he continued to touch me. He ran his hand on my privates. I had no hair and he said that it was sexy that I had no hair and that soon I will need to start shaving. he was touching himself with his left hand on top of his jeans. I turned my head from the TV and watched my little brother. And tried not to cry and make any noise until he finished. He kept rubbing my privates and my chest. He tried to pull my pants down. When he was done he turned my TV off and told me to put my little brother back to bed. 

He used to wake me up before he would have sex with my mom and would tell me to listen and come in after and ask me if I enjoyed listening and that he could do that to me too if I wanted and I said no. He did this a few different times.

More happened while I was at work with him on his job sites. He told me that I have the perfect boob size like his brothers ex girlfriend. soon after that one of her bra’s ended up in my stuff and he asked me to wear it.

I started binging and purging; it was the normal for my step father to slap my butt when my mom wasn't in the room.

·      10-31-2003 Halloween 

·      Wood Cemetery County Rd. 194 Jonesboro, TX

I wanted to go to a graveyard, we always went to haunted houses but we lived in the middle of know where so we could not go to haunted houses as usual. I was upset that we couldn't go to a haunted house. Mom said why don’t you have your dad take you to the graveyard down the street, less than a mile down the street from our house. I was hesitant but I have always wanted to go to a graveyard on hollowed so we took the minivan. The middle row in the minivan had been taken out. I sat up front while he drove. When we got there I started to get out when he said no lets sit here and talk so I shut the door. we started talking about how scary it was and he told me a story about how he went to one when he was younger with his brothers. He then moved to the back seat and turned the lamp on in the middle of the minivan, I could not see out he asked me to come sit back there with him. I said no and I looked back and he gave me this look so I went back and sat on the floor behind the passenger seat. He asked me if I was scared and I said yes. He told me that I should come sit next to him and I wouldn’t be so scared so I did. I sat at the other side of the seat. He put his arm around me and pulled me closer. He put his hands on my breasts and says it’s not as scary as I think it is so I starred out the window. He asked me why I was so scared. I said because I see people standing outside the car. He picked me up and put me in his lap. He asked me what they looked like. I said there was an old lady and I started to cry. He was rubbing my butt on his hard d*** while I was talking. He said why are you scared of the old lady, I said I wasn't I said she's telling me that you are going to die for what you do to me. and by that time I was bawling, he continued to rub me on him, after a while a pushed away and sat in the seat and said I want my mom can we please go back home and he said, that he wasn't finished with me, he told me to look back there but I wouldn't, he said I should see what a d*** looks like at my age I should know. I was bawling and said I want my brother, I want to go home. I started to open the door and said I will just walk home and he said no, that mom would be mad. He opened the van door and situated himself, I was looking down, and he walked around and sat in the drivers seat. He started the car up and pulled into the driveway of the graveyard and backed up. As we drove home, he told me not to tell my mom that she would be upset if she found out what I did with her husband.

·      Occurred on 9-21-2004

He had not came into my room for a while. He had been slapping my butt more often, he would come into my room while I was changing or he would come into the bathroom while I was taking a shower and leave so it was getting worse. I was scared of him coming into my room again so I locked my door. I gave hugs and kisses goodnight and I went to bed. I locked my door, I knew it wasn’t allowed but I was scared. I lay in bed. I heard the doorknob move and I was scared it was he. I immediately sat up. Mom yelled unlock the door I heard my stepfathers voice behind moms voice for me to unlock the door so I did. I was bawling and mom was mad at me previously for a bad grade or something. She asked me why I locked the door, I looked up at my stepfather and he gave me a look. And I said you don't want to know. I started crying. my step father said, "I will handle it Hun". My stepfather walked in and shut the door. He said why would I say that to mom? That she's going to ask questions and he had to make up something now to tell her. He said, "Why did you lock the door." I said, "Because I was scared that he would come in tonight". He said, "why would I do that I have not done it in a while". I said because "its about to be my birthday and I am getting older."

He used to walk around in his orange underwear and give me THE LOOK

I went into my little sisters room to give her kisses goodnight. I sat on her bed by her feet. I said I have to ask you a question and she giggled and said ok, she was laying down, I said does daddy touch you here and I touched her chest on her nightgown with my index finger. She said no daddy doesn't touch me there. I pointed to her leg and asked if daddy touches her there and she says no. I pointed the side of her butt and I ask does daddy touch you here and she gave me a big smile and said yes daddy touches me there all the time. I covered her back up with her blanket, gave her a kiss and a hug and told her that I loved her and I left the room.
