*The simple fact that I am being sued by Patrick and his brother Jairus indicates that the blog is working. People are protecting themselves and their families. This has been an effective tool to warn individuals in the community about Patrick, a convicted sex offender.
*Through the blog I was able to locate the whereabouts of Eddie Rojas, a wanted felon. But because he is out of our country for now he will not be held accountable legally for his actions. I am at least reassured that the communities the Rojases are traveling within can know who they REALLY are. The Rojas family isn't able to hide under a veil of lies anymore.
*I have been able to engage in open dialog about a taboo subject. I have been heartbroken by all the women and men that have shared with me their stories of childhood sexual abuse. Their willingness to share was facilitated because of my openness on this blog.
As I have stated in other posts....this is about more than just our story.

Friendly Fire
Well, I have been getting a little friendly fire lately from my own. Other Christians.
The longer I am away from the rhetoric that our former pastor, Eddie Rojas, preached at PHFCC, along with the mind set of the elders and many of the families that attended PHFCC, the clearer it becomes that their thinking is far from biblical. They may quote scripture but they distort the meaning as it pertains to someone like a known sexual predator. A sexual predator isn't someone you can just say I forgive you to and then move on as normal. Warning others as to the documented potential danger their children would be in if left unattended with someone such as Patrick isn't an act of revenge.
Some of the worst damage that has been done to me in my lifetime has come from friendly fire. I have my issues. I have baggage. I get that. This blog isn't one of them.

Right To Privacy
The moment Patrick started grooming our family, I believe he forfeited his right to privacy. The day he actually laid hands on my child, his story became intertwined in mine. I am being sued because Patrick has lost his good reputation. According to the lawsuit his loss of reputation and of employment is because of my blog. Way to shift blame.
If Patrick wouldn't have sexually violated my child along with five other minor children I wouldn't have a blog. If Patrick would have taken full responsible for his deviant crimes and accepted the legal consequences for his crimes, I would not have anything to write about. If Patrick stayed clear of children and families with children and was upfront about his predatory tendencies, I would have no need to warn the community that we live in about him specifically.
If Jairus would have warned us not to allow Patrick access to our children, I would not have this story to tell about his involvement. If Eddie and Kathy Rojas would have protected our church community and my family from their sexual deviant son, my story would be different. Because these individuals chose to stay silent, this is my story. Patrick, Jairus, Eddie and Kathy are simply reaping what they sowed. I guess they didn't consider the possibility that I wouldn't stay silent along with them.

Going Forward
They are going forward with the deposition. It looks like it will be in late November. Truth be told, I am not surprised.
At this point I have no choice but to roll with it. Don't get me wrong, this does cause me anxiety. The anticipation will be building from now until the deposition. Wondering about what questions will be asked, whether the offender and his brother will be present, not knowing whether I will feel angry or sad and cry.
It's a job for the attorneys and I believe a game for Patrick.
I just have to remind myself, for even one family to be spared the devastation that Patrick caused our child and family, it is all worth it.

Not Normal
One thing that keeps coming to mind lately is the fact that we are not dealing with someone like you or I. We are dealing with a sociopath that has narcissistic traits. He is not normal. Does not feel REAL remorse for his victims. Incapable of empathy. Although he can act and say the right words because he was taught well.
I believe that people that support a person like this view him as though he has actual remorse. So many of his actions have indicated a lack of humility on his part and a lack of empathy for his victim and their family. The one, that to me, is the mind blower even more so than the lawsuit was when he opposed the extension of the restraining order on behalf of the victim. Showing up to the court to ask for an extension because his lawyer wasn't able to make that particular date, not once but twice, by action alone indicates opposition to the no-contact order. Call me crazy.
Someone that is a serial pedophile is not normal! Does not think like you or I. Is incapable of certain emotions.
It is hard for us to comprehend because we have a conscious. We can't imagine because our brains are different. There really are monsters out there. They just don't always look scary.
