"Protecting the recovery community from predators"

Ok, so here is the Rape Trial news regarding Chris Bathum and myself from KNBC 4. (I'll get a higher quality video soon):

Somehow, I was asked to be interviewed by KNBC Channel 4 in Los Angeles. We had a nice time at my studio and Phil Drecshler did a good job coaching me and directing me. He never told me what to say, although he did assist me sometimes when I would forget exactly what I was saying and keep me on track. Just like when I helped Hayley Gravino stay on track when I reminded her what she had just told me. She told me that she had been drugged and raped by Chris Bathum. Apparently, the Prosecutor and District Attorney forgot to do some technical thing and now the defense attorney Spiga is trying to pull a rabbit out of a hat and crea...

 Today, Phil Drecshler came over to my house for a big interview. I can't go into all the details right now.

But its about a big development in the Chris Bathum Rape case. 

I forgot to post this a while back. It was during Thanksgiving when I went back east to Boston to visit with friends and family. I was pleasantly surprised to get invited to the State House of Representatives to receive an award in, you guessed it: Addiction Advocacy!

Being an Addiction Advocate is a lonely business sometimes. But once in a while, its nice to get recognized for actually doing something.

Speaking of doing something: I really hope as many people as possible show up to witness history in the making. Chris Bathum is getting sentenced for Rape and 30 other Felony Sex Assault Convictions. My guess is he'll get 25 to life, even though he deserves much more than that. I also think Bathum will try to weasel out of it and ask for an appeal...

But who's counting?

In 17 days, Chris Bathum will be sentenced for 31 felony sex assault crimes, including rape. Many of us, who are in the know, are aware that the crimes that he was caught for and convicted, were just the tip of the iceberg. But at least the cops and sheriff and prosecutors were able to get him busted for those 31 crimes. If the Judge and Jury do their homework and do what's right: I'm guessing he'll get 25 to life. I calculated, that if he gets the maximum amount of jail time it would be 88 to 277 years in prison. But we all know that's not going to happen. For whatever reason: people like him somehow weasel their way out of having to stay in prison as long as they should. But don't worry: he's not going anywhere anytime soon....

He's keeping very busy. Checkout the latest article:

As I wait to hear from the Court Clerk who will soon give us all the final decision regarding the 5 year legal battle I have waged against Chris Bathum, Kirsten Wallace and Michele Garcia, the madness and domestic terror continue. Once again, an all too common pattern of unlicensed, illegal residential treatment flop houses run by the "rehab mogul" convicted felon Chris Bathum, continues to destroy lives and wreak havoc on the entire community. Why on God's earth hasn't anyone done something to stop these people? I can only do so much. I've spent over $350,000 of my own money in legal battles, leading the charge against these unscrupulous people, paving the way for all the others who are now following suit. This epic story of good versus evil wi...
