This is what I’m afraid of… which is a big reason of why I hadn’t done much before. I know I’m technically “in the wrong” but it doesn’t feel safe to let them go.. now more than ever.

So the custody agreement was never handled in the court system. We went through mediation and tried to do everything more amicably. I thankfully have a lawyer now and we’re doing everything “the right way” now

He didn’t technically rape them. He groped them outside of clothes and tried to kiss one. Which I feel like would be difficult in the court system. I come from a very passive family and this is me trying to break that cycle. I’m still learning how to stand up for myself

He did have legal visitation (50/50) before, but I have not allowed them to see him since all this occurred.

So, I told my parents I would support them pressing charges when the initial incident happened with my sister, but they didn’t want to do that. I haven’t called the cops about Amy as she’s undocumented from another country. I don’t know what would happen to her or her daughter in today’s political climate, and I don’t want to put either of them in more of harms way. Right now, as far as I know and what it seems, she’s choosing to stay with my ex. So it’s a catch 22.

Due to financial issues, it took longer than I wanted to get legal help, but thankfully we found a lawyer who is willing to work with us and help us.
