    Exclamation Terrorized by Boyfriend Who Charged Me with Identity Theft

    TERRORIZED BY BEST FRIEND, NOT BOYFRIEND!

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Florida

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Florida

    First of all, this involves California, Arizona, AND Florida.

    I live in Florida and my husband, children, and I are fairly well off. I help anyone I can anytime. I can't even imagine how much money we have given to those in need.

    Well, here goes...My BF of 30 years called me from California where I used to live telling me that her and her new husband were in bad financial shape and would probably lose their house. My dad, and two uncles are in law enforcement, my mom, step-mom, aunt are in real estate and mortgage. My BF begs and pleads with me to help her get refinanced because she can't and knew my mom had all the connections to get it done. Meanwhile, her husband is quitting his jobs over and over causing this problem. She swears me to secrecy not to tell her husband. I gave her my moms number and they spoke a few times. She is very needy and will not do anything herself, so she begs me to fax her credit report to my mom, who calls her a few more times and gives it to mortgage brokers she thinks can help. So I tell her "Look, I have a children's boutique, I'll send lots of stuff out there and we'll go to America's kids fair to sell it. I will give you any money we make. I buy a very expensive ticket to go out immediately. Stupid new husband of BF takes his work truck 9 miles to work at 2AM, put the keys under the seat and proceeds to WALK the 9 miles home. All because I will make them money. So its a HUGE fair. I bring two friends. One isn't there yet. My dad paid for one of their tickets, I paid the other. HAVE RECEIPTS! Fair was a little way, so we stay at Embassy Suites with MY Hilton Honors points, no money, no credit card involved. Stupid husband shows up at fair next day with his two step-daughters, 9 and 11 in their PAJAMAS! They are extremely embarrased. I buy them clothes. Stupid husband is supposed to be watching baby and 2 year old, after all, WE are selling. 2 year old gets lost and brought back by sherriffs 3 TIMES. Stupid husband blames step-daughters, even calling 11 year old on cell phone while she is going to the bathroom to yell at her that its HER fault! Friend 2 shows up that night. My BF says she will pay for rental car because stupid husband doesn't have work car anymore since he left it at work/quit at 2AM so he wouldn't have to tell his boss! So we need more space. 2 friends, myself, and stupid husband go to Alamo. Stupid husband tries to pay with Citibank card which doesn't work. Calls Citibank. Is over limit and closed for 1 year. Friend 1 pays for rental car. HAVE RECEIPT! We go to BF's house. She is addicted to Oxycontin and Vicodin. She is out cold. Me and 2 friends are staying upstairs. Stupid husband is watching TV downstairs. We hear bang, bang, bang, bang. Baby crawled up wooden stairs, fell down them and hit her head on the tile. Stupid husband steps OVER baby, runs upstairs, grabs my arm and drags me into garage. 2 friends check out baby. Stupid husband blames fall on me because baby wouldn't go up stairs if I wasn't there. I counter "Why weren't you watching her". 2 friends and I are pissed. We leave. BF is still knocked out. 2 friends and I go to my moms house. 2 friends inform me they are calling child protective services. Want me to as well. I agree. We go home. 5 months later, knock on my door. Police with warrant to arrest me for identity theft. 3 FELONY charges. $700 total I put on their credit card for continental airlines (dad paid and has receipt), Embassy Suites (I have receipt and points statement) and car rental (Friend 1 paid and has receipt). 2nd charge, I signed up stupid husband for Discovery toys without his permission, forged his signature, and took his ss# that is on the application. 3rd charge, I had their credit report and opened accounts in their names (mortgage accounts, bought a van, payday loan in stupid husbands name for $10,000). Taken to jail, booked, looked at warrant. Originally $5,000 bail, crossed out to $25,000. Stupid husband faxed detective the day before stating I am major flight risk and would go so far as to take an innertube to Cuba! Detective faxed to Judge, bail amount changed. I am on disability. Arresting officer had me bring my medications. I need my heart medication. "wardens or whatever they are" say No, you are in our house, we make the rules. We don't care if you die because you obviously did something to get yourself thrown in here. 25 of us lined up to be told our charges and bail. All of us have hand cuffs. They put ankle shakles on me. Had major bruises for 1 1/2 months. No one over $5,000 bail. Battery, stabbing, grand theft. My bail $25,000. Dad bails me out. I am disabled with bipolar disorder/depression/anxiety/panic attacks with the heart problems. During next year, I see my public defender once, am sent a cd of deposition where BF and stupid husband admit lies. PLUS, stupid husband emailed me after arrest telling me he broke into my email. He erased all emails from BF to me and me to BF. Public defender reminds him he is under oath. Asks him if he broke into my email. Says no 3 times. States Attorney is there, knows all are lies and perjury. I was in bed 13 months until sentence and 18 times in psychiatric ward. Husband has to take out doorbell because I burst into tears if someone rang doorbell. Police just happened to have a turn out beyond the gate of our gated community behind the bushes where they run speed traps every night all of a sudden. I am in terror. States Attorney says I can get 15 years, 5 for each lying count. Detective threatens friend 2 with jail if she doesn't go along with BF and stupid husband. Months prior to arrest, they convinced her that I was not reachable but I said to give them password to my email. She does, so she believes detective but won't call him, changes email, moves, and gets cell phone to use. Another email to me from stupid husband stating I did extortion and that I kidnapped friend 1 and took her accross international borders. She wanted to go to Mexico, we walked. She was almost 300 lbs, I was 125 lbs. I couldn't have dragged her. Never being able to get a hold of Public defender, I show up for sentencing. She says I need to plea no lo contendre and she will see if judge will withhold adjudication. Tells me, husband, family that after probation my slate would be completely clear with the withholding of adjudication. Found out months later it in not true. Will be on my record as plea of guilty with adjudication withheld for fraud/identity theft. I get probation and for my sanity have to move from the house this happened at. Had to register in other county. Got another email from stupid husband. So you live in so and so city...maybe we should come visit you. All these emails in my probation files. Probation officer says to go to police for stalking. Too scared, didn't go. Did go to police to have them press charges for breaking and entering my email and for perjury I have on cd. BF and stupid husband moved to Arizona. Cops say they don't want to go through the process of this with another state, can be expensive. BF does restitution form. These words alone: She owes me $6,000 for credit card bills. No receipts, no explaination, nothing. I write to judge 4 times for restitution hearing and ask him to supeona records. I made NO charges on anyones credit card. Look up in county records. All requests say-Please File. It has been 3 years. I am traumatized. In hospital 37 times by now. Scared to death all the time, don't want to go outside. Have 4 kids and I am scared to play with them outside. Think every car is a cop. WHAT CAN I DO? HELP! PLEASE!

    Best Friend, NOT boyfriend!

    First question after an initial skim (there is a TON of totally irrelevent info here!), is this: how, if your family is so well off that you've got money to throw at every unfortunate person that walks by, did you manage to get a public defender (which typically happens to those at the very LOWEST income levels)?

    Question Re: Terrorized by Boyfriend Who Charged Me with Identity Theft

    I was absolutely in terror. My family being in law enforcement, the trauma of being arrested, etc. The judge didn't even ask me if I had or would get counsel. He just read on his paperwork that I was on Social Security Disability and he said I was "indigent status" or something like that. We had no idea about anything legal and were just clueless. If I wasn't so scared and my husband didn't have to take off so much work because I kept feeling suicidal, we would have been better thinkers and would have gotten an attorney. I did have an attorney that came when I was arrested. My husband called him. But then this judge said that status and I was told by the public defender that she was on the case. We were just stupid and didn't question her. This would have been dropped so fast if we weren't in such a state of panick! I know I sound really stupid, but I was, I was just too terrified to think and so was my husband who had to make sure the 4 kids were taken care of when I spent 24/7 in bed and lost so much weight, I was anorexic and wouldn't eat. I couldn't have taken care of the kids, much more, myself!

    Isn't there anything I can do? What is no lo contendre and ajudication withheld? My public defender said that it would mean I was innocent. I am disabled with many mental illnesses and 4 doctors said I couldn't stand trial and that I didn't understand anything that was happening or what I was doing when I did the plea. I didn't know what it meant. She just told me to go along with her. And can't I sue the so-called "victims", and why can't I demand they be prosecuted for lying about all the charges and perjury? Plus how can a states attorney still charge me knowing this?

    Easiest answer I ever gave. Have Daddy hire you a good competent attorney. And then tell him/her the story and let them do their job. If it can be shown you were not competent at the time you signed the conviction, it may be overturned and you get to start again. But first you need to HIRE a good attorney.
