This in follow up to the article written by Drew Lawson in the last publication on October 20, 2022.
First off, I would like to say I am that ex-wife of the man with pending charges of rape of our daughter. I am absolutely horrified and mortified that this article was written and I was not notified this was going to be published. Many people have reached out in concern of the material that was in the article. If you have to put a “WARNING: This article deals with highly sensitive subjects, including sexual relations, involving minors. Please read at your own discretion”, maybe you should think twice about publishing it for the world to read it. Why was our court case selected and pulled out and put in a separate article and not anyone else’s? Why was so much detail able to be released in the article?
Odessa is a very small community and everyone knows everyone. My child has 10 kids in her class and now every single one of their parents know what has taken place. We have been through so much pain and sadness this last year, this has helped re-open the wounds really badly for us. We are trying to heal the best way we can, without having reminders of what has taken place.
Our livelihood is here in Odessa and I am so fortunate for an understanding community. My child has lost her hair due to stress induced alopecia, currently in counseling along with myself. At such a sensitive and tender time in our life, I am so very disappointed this article was able to be published.
A very saddened and disappointed resident of Odessa
