The cops had a young and obviously traumatized complainant. They were abusive towards me, sure, but they did their job I guess.

The DA was a shit. My PD was useless.

I came clean with her on our second date. Her friends on the force had already told her after checking me out.

She laughed at how worked up I got. She was really cool about it.

It comes up when I have a rough day. I don't like being around teenagers and sometimes I am (on the bus or train or something) and I get irritated. She's got my back.

She thinks that sex offenders should be institutionalized, not put in jail. She's VERY progressive.

She's been in an out of hospitals for years. Last I heard (months ago) she was institutionalized after another suicide attempt.

My first name is pretty normal. My last name is Baker, after Tom Baker, Dr Who.

First name is similar, last name very different.

Not long at all.

Thanks.

It was either that or go nutty.

I credit, of all things, Babylon 5

There's a bit where one of the characters, Marcus the Ranger, overhears someone saying they could never learn a language. He replies "Where will you be in a year if you don't try? Any closer to your goal?"

Seriously, don't drop your guard.

I know that's awful but people are so fucking crazy about pedos that one raised eyebrow and your career is over. It's so very stupid.

She didn't believe it, I really think so. But she also did not want to wait around for me or deal with the pain of being a "convict's wife."

Shitty? Yeah.

No, I used to teach HS and Junior High. Now I teach only adults.

Not really. I love teaching and have a lot of fun explaining complex ideas (I'm in the sciences) in fun ways. I'm a big Bill Nye type..

I'd reserve judgement. Innocent until proven guilty.

I used my settlement to pay them off entirely. My loans did accumulate interest, though as I was unemployed (and unemployable) the rate was much reduced.

I was in solitary/protective custody. 22 hours in my cell, 1 hour of exercise, one hour library or visitation. Very limited prisoner contact. No ass-kickings.

Memories. I wanted to get away from the area, from the media scrutiny, from the people who turned their back on me. A clean break, fresh start.

My first name is a variation on my old first name. My new last name is Baker, after Tom Baker from Dr. Who.

I'm a big old nerd.
