I had the unfortunate opprotunity to be represented by this so called attorney in a simple assault case in lebanon county .first off all it took was a woman saying I hit her .when infact I was being abused.at the time I had just been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.and was livingvwithv a woman I had met on an internet dating website.I was around the woman maybe one month when her crazy side surfaced..she was quick tempered and volitile .it was nother for her to push , slap, punch me .I truly beleive it was because she knew I wouldnt hit her .I was never the type to put my hands on anyone let alone a woman.I attempted to bide my time until it would be logical to sneak away from this relationship .as trying to sit down like an adult and explain my ferlings on our situation.was always met with some sort of violent reaction .I realized that any sort of rejection sent this woman into a frenzy.one day while she was at work I began to pack my things.it took a while because I was very weak.at that time I was takibg 1000 miligrams of a steroid per day and about 20 pills .I had a walker and also an I.v in my arm..as I was packing she came in and saw me .and it was instant she pushed me causing me to fall as I had no control over my balance at the time .I wasn't willing to argue or even attempt to try and reason with her I just wanted to leave. I called the police in the hopes they could escort me out of the premises without an incident.I calle d the cops I told hrr.her reply was so what ill just tel them u hit me...I don't care I said just taking it as one of her usual crazy rants.within the 5 or so kinutes before they arrived I had to withstand many punches and shoves from this woman who strong and pretty bent on scratching my faxe for some reason.all this while on a walker sick as a dog with an I.v in my arm.when we heard yhe police comming .she pushed past me screaming he hit me he hit me ..that was all it took.I was arrested without a chance to say a word.I was taken to the good sameriten hospi tree alwhere I was hand cuffed to the hospital bed gor 8 hours.because the doctors would not release me in my condition.by the morning I was gicen a letter to say once released I had to turn myself into the lebanon police .which I did I was subsequently charged with simple assault and harrassment.and given paper work and instructions to report to kim evans who woul dc serve as my public derender.the first time I walked into her office I could tell she didn't like me ..there wasca discusted look on her face.I hadn't said one word to hrr. .so I'm gathering something about my appearence mite have prompted her expression rite off the back I was cut off from fuly explaining my side of the story .all she would say was that I'm facibg 2 years upstate .for example I would say kim what should I do .she would say I'm not allowed to give u advice on what uou should do but your facing two years upstate ..I mean as a sick man as sick as I was thevthought of jail time was very stressfull and scary...since I felt like she waant listenibg to me. I ask to speak to her supervisor .she slammed my papers on the eesk and sent him to me .he took me into aroom whrre he told me that you couldn't pat him to be a black man in lebanon coubty and although it mite not be faircthat I had to makeca choice for the lesser evil.either go to trial or accept a plea agreement ..at this point BBC i knew I would not receive justice .I took the few weeks I had before the case to gather my own evidence .I had letters from my x's and f amily as charactor witnesses..I found a file from the lebanon courthouse that charged the same woman with false reporting to a police officer.I had phone calls of her statibg she lied.the fact that I called the police .and the fact that a month prior to the incedent I reported my situation to my doctors who wrote it in my records..even a nurse who refused to treat me at home because of the irrational behavior that this woman exibited.all she had was
