My ex husband Bruce Drake, of McCall and New Meadows Idaho has gotten away with not paying child support for 10 years. The District Attorney has given me one excuse after another why they cant collect. One being he owns his own business and file's for corperation so his wages cant be garnished. I have proof he is working, (video taped him on his job, more than once), I have proof he has used a few different social security numbers to avoid paying support. He was reprimanded by Unemployment for working and receiving unemployment and for using his girlfreinds Son's Social Security number to collect those funds. Still the DA does nothing.

He was charged with contempt once and paid $300 for 9 months( $300 was half of the support amount for one month) as soon as charges were dropped becaquse he paid for 9 months he quit paying and I have not reiceved anything since. The DA tells me I should just wait till he gets an inheritance from family and garnish it.

A lady at the Da's office has told me before that I should just close my case if I didnt like the service I was recieving. Another lady at the DA's office told me "Well you are the one who choose him to father your kids." I told her "it was her job to collect support isnt that correct."

As a single mother I put a heavy lawn mower in my car day after day and mowed lawns to support my kids. I cleaned offices at night until I had enough jobs in the day time to get me by. For Christmas our first year on our own we had dollar store items under the tree and his girlfriend sent thrift store cloths for adults to my 10 and 12 year old. I think it was to make me believe he couldnt afford anything else, I knew better, he always made a good living, he was smart a go getter a good sales man, good provider as long I was with him. As soon as I left somehow he couldnt make any money and had no income...

I could go on and on about how he has avoided child support but it just makes me sick to my stomach, while I sit her now and help put my daughter through nursing shcool. I want a better life for my kids so I will sacrifice to give them what they need.

LIES FOR SYMPATHY

AUTHOR: Bruce Drake - (United States of America)

LIES, LIES, LIES!  These are outright lies with tiny pieces of half truths.  Don't believe me check out the public court records to see who is telling the truth and who realy did what. 

The truths: 1. I regratably am her ex-husband. 2. I do reside in this geograpical area. 3. She probably does have video of me working, hours, maybe days of it, she is always looking for a way to get somebody  4. We do have 2 grown children both of whom I am very proud of and love with all my heart.

This bitch is so dilerious with her poor me conjured up stories that she even believes them.  She has lived with and told her lies to so many for so long that her current marrige would be in jepordy if her current husband knew the truths.  Her life as she believes it to be is a complete falicy based upon lies.

I could go on and unravel all her known lies, deceptions and lawlessness over the passed 25 years but for one I don't care to spend that much time rehashing this and secondly it would be completly counter productive.  It's bad enough that our children have been alienated by her constant birage of lies.

If you have any dealings with her you can count on 2 things.  One she will lie to you about anything, everything and when it is not even nessisary to get her way.  2. She will sell you short in a heartbeat if she is to benifit in any way however trivial.

Kidknaping, Theift and Flight

AUTHOR: Bruce Drake - (United States of America)

I only hope that my 1st rebuttal will be published.

This was not a Company Complaint as this forum is for.  It is a Slanderous story to discredit me.

Let's at least set some of the record straight.

A small glimps into the truth.  Donna Drake handled our company books had complete and exclusive control of all our money and paid all the bills.  She quit paying the bills in May of 1996 and did not tell me about it. 

Donna Drake filed for child custody in California in July of 1996 while residing in Idaho. 

While I was away from the home working in September 1996 she removed in excess of $40,000.00 cash from our safe deposit box and $20,000.00 cash we kept at home leaving me with $0.00.  Got her boyfreind to load all of our home furnishings as well as livestock and help move her to California.  Where it does not matter what your state of residency is you can file and take child custody under the protections of California State Law(legal parental kidnaping).  Shotly after her relocation I found that she hadn't paid the bills though shut off and forclosure notices.  It was too late to save the house.  I did eventually get all the utilities paid.  Meanwhile, I had to open a new checking account and borrow expense money to go back to work, because she was spending my direct deposit pay check as soon as it was deposited.

As soon as she got to California she started her poor me campain.  She stugled sooo hard just to put food on the table and keep a roof over their poor rejected lives.  All the while she was sitting on more than $60,000.00 in cash. Still running up the credit cards in my name until they were maxed out.

Moveing though the next few years;  The police had to be sumonsed EVERYTIME I picked up the kids for visitation.  She would file for child support modification every other month until I could not financially go to California and defend myself.  She would lie about my income everytime and not have to answer for these perjuries. She had my child support payments set at $1,600.00 per month for quit some time when I didn't even make that much.  I had to save for months to get enough money together and get another hearing to get the child support back to a level that was the standard amount for my income.  As soon as the hearing was over, usually the same day, she filed for another child support modification.  And, the cycle started all over again.  Even when shown to the California Judges that she is repeatedly filing for modification when there are no material changes that would warrant a modification the Judge would alow her to continue to file month after month.

She still gets money from me on a regular basis.  Think about it.  Everytime I get a little behind I get my Drivers License suspended and can't get it back until the state has recieved payment.  One can not possibly go 10 years without a drivers license.
