In the words of one man, "She called 911 and smiled at me like a cat who had just caught the largest mouse." Unfortunately, when it comes to false domestic violence allegations, the statistics are not good. Seven hundred thousand individuals are wrongfully arrested for domestic violence each year. While women can be the victims of false domestic violence allegations, men are more often targeted.

Fathers' organizations now estimate that up to 80% of domestic violence allegations against men are false allegations. Furthermore, 70% of restraining orders are trivial or false. The definition of domestic violence has been so broadened it can include almost any touching or any act that upsets your partner in any way.

The Center for Disease Control now defines abuse as, "Domestic violence is abuse or violent action that occurs between two individuals in a close relationship. Physical abuse includes acts of violence in which one partner physically hurts the other by kicking, hitting or using other methods of physical force. Sexual abuse occurs when a partner is forced to have sexual contact without his or her consent. Emotional abuse includes acts such as controlling finances or outside relationships with friends and family, making verbal threats, or routinely making comments that damage a partner's sense of autonomy and self-worth."

In one recent story, a woman wanted a car that the family could not afford. When her husband said that they could not buy the car, the woman claimed her husband was abusive to her. She had previously read in a "Domestic Violence Check List" that if your husband tries to keep you from doing something you want to do, he is being abusive towards you.

A Rising Trend in Divorce Proceedings

When a separation or divorce is pending, it is not uncommon for domestic violence allegations to be exaggerated, misconstrued or fabricated entirely. RADAR (Respecting Accuracy in Domestic Abuse Reporting) reports that allegations of domestic abuse and requests for protection orders are increasingly used for tactical advantages in divorces. According to Saveservices.org, in an estimated 25% of divorces, domestic violence allegations are made.

In 1994, the government passed the "Violence Against Women Act." While this act has significantly helped women who were in actual abusive situations, it has also allowed women to falsely accuse their spouses of domestic violence and get away with it. Because this act allows a woman to receive action without proof, it has the potential for abuse. Mandatory arrest laws can result in men being arrested regardless of the circumstances- even if no violence occurred whatsoever.

One woman who filed for domestic violence, later admitted under oath on a deposition that "my attorney told me to file, that it's customary." Claiming their spouse is violent can result in the victim receiving custody of the children and spousal support. Who wouldn't want to secure the cars, household or other assets accumulated during a marriage? Domestic violence victims can also receive other benefits such as free food, free shelter and free legal representation.

States have laws that require domestic violence training for police officers and encourage them to make arrests whenever allegations are made. If officers are becoming more predisposed to making arrests, are more individuals getting arrested unlawfully- without substantiated evidence or probable cause?

What can false allegations of domestic violence do?

False allegations of domestic violence can wreak havoc on a person's life and make a divorce case much more difficult and dragged out. Allegations of domestic violence can cause both civil and criminal consequences. False allegations of divorce can result in very specific, harmful consequences which include:

Loss of custody- most states carry a statutory presumption, which means that when domestic violence allegations are brought up, the perpetrator is not awarded custody of the children.
No mediation of disputes- when domestic abuse occurs, mediation is not required
No contact and criminal violation- the court can order that the perpetrator not contact the victim(s). Any violation of a restraining order is a criminal offense that can result in incarceration.
Exclusive use of the home- usually a perpetrator is excluded from the family home.
Parental alienation syndrome- when someone is accused of domestic violence, he/she will often get no parenting time or supervised parenting time. These situations are cold and uninviting and send the message to children that "Daddy is dangerous."
Anger management and treatment- the court usually requires a defendant to attend an anger management program, chemical dependency treatment or other therapies
Restriction of civil liberties- under the bill "Brady Bill," a domestic violence perpetrator is not allowed to own or possess a firearm
A severely ruined reputation among family, friends, co-workers and the community as a whole
A loss of job or a career derailed
A heavy financial burden, as the accused now has to face a legal fight to retain his children, visitation rights and his reputation
Avoiding False Allegations of Domestic Violence

What are some practical suggestions for preventing false allegations of domestic violence before they arise?

Avoid conflict
When a divorce is threatened, secure independent witnesses who can be present if conflict results
Report all threats or hints that false accusations could be forthcoming
After a conflict, consider filing a restraining order first or see if you can pursue a reciprocal order
According to one man, "A week before the accusations, my former wife told me she would get me removed from our home." Don't take these comments lightly! Tell Child Protective Services, your lawyer, or a police officer when necessary. Apathy and innocence could be the two greatest catalysts at work in false allegation cases.

The man continued to say, "The charges were later dropped, but the damage had been done…to my reputation, to my finances, and to my outlook on the criminal justice system." Protect yourself before it's too later by securing the legal representation you need. You need to be vigilant about warning signs that allegations could be imminent, and once they are made, you need to be proactive about contesting them!

What if it's too late?

If you have already been accused of violence, what can you do to keep this situation from spiraling out of control? The good news for you is that of all domestic violence calls, 65% of individuals will recant their story before it goes to trial. Nonetheless, if the accuser does take further legal action, you should follow these steps implicitly:

Address the legal standard- does your ex-partner really have the necessary evidence required for filing a restraining order?
Expose inconsistencies in the allegations
Expose motivation to fabricate
Keep all of your communication with your ex-partner to e-mail or other low contact methods
Save money, as you will need plenty of funds if you hope to contest these allegations and win child custody
Secure witnesses who can testify on your behalf
Show up for court- otherwise a default judgment of guilty will be made and a restraining order will go into effect
Conduct interim child custody exchanges in a highly visible place to discourage further allegations of abuse
When it comes to domestic violence cases, there is the lowest legal standard of proof. Courts often issue restraining orders on extremely weak evidence. While a person who claims domestic violence often has plenty of time to manufacture support for their claims, a defendant can be taken completely by surprise. Sometimes the court may limit testimony and evidence as well, due to time limitations. If you want to contest the allegations in court, you will need an aggressive defense on your side.

You can subpoena the police officer to testify in court, if the police were dispatched to the scene but no arrest occurred. You also need to quickly line up third party witnesses that have personal knowledge about the alleged incident.

You should thoroughly investigate any bruises and injures along with medical records and the timeline of events. You should secure an attorney immediately so that your rights are protected, all the evidence is properly presented and so that any inconsistencies are clearly exposed.

Consider who is victimized!

If you were thinking of making false allegations of domestic violence- don't do it. Consider who is victimized by these accusations. The sad reality is that in divorce cases, children can be used as pawns to achieve what one parent wants. High conflict divorces can reap long-term negative repercussions in a child's life.

Furthermore, false allegations of domestic violence are also harmful to the community. In the words of one report, "Beyond victimizing many innocent men and the children who love and need them, false allegations also draw resources and credibility away from women who really are victims of domestic violence, and who need protection." As one judge declared, "For someone to falsely accuse another out of anger and vengeance silences the voices of the many real victims."

If you desperately want the custody of your children, there are better ways to fight for this. Securing an experienced divorce attorney on your side can ensure that your rights are articulated and that you get the time with your children and the financial support that you deserve. Don't resort to dirty tactics- it simply isn't worth it.

Truth! More than one million restraining orders of the three million filed in the U.S. are fraudulent. Most of these fraudulent restraining orders are filed in child custody cases.

Stop fraudulent restraining orders and jail those women who commit perjury and fraud, and return the children to their non-criminal fathers. Once the mother gets out of jail, there can be reasonable visitation, until she proves that she is capable of sharing 50/50 custody with the father of the children. Children need both parents!

Totally true! Actually, a woman doesn't even have to make her story sound convincing. Many a judge will sign a DVRO, just based upon a woman saying: "He scares me." Some peckerwood judge signs it, and voila, the court just got $$$$$ through an incentivized program via VAWA.

More than 0ne million of the three million restraining orders filed every year are fraudulent. And, most of those are filed in a child custody case. It gets the father/boyfriend kicked out of the home (even if they own it and pay for it), gets them torn away from their children, gets them forced to deal with the allegation and subsequent charges (if any), often gets them jailed, forced to defend themselves at a significant expense, gets them deemed as a criminal often by the judge hearing their family law case, threatens their job, family and friend relationships, and more.

Try to file a DVRO on a woman, well, good luck with that. For sure, it has far different penalties and outcomes if you can even or ever find a judge to sign it in the first place. The court and system is rampant with gender bias, prejudice and discrimination!

The courts have turned it into a revenue enhancing stream, and have done so for years. They are incentivized via several programs, but especially by VAWA. Lies, perjury, collusion, etc., pays big $$$$!

It's the feminist men and father haters that are members of a hate group. I have yet to encounter any father that is a member of a group that includes the word father and/or men, that is a hater. In more than seven years fighting the anti-family court system, I think I might have met only one father who spoke more about his ex-wife than he did about his child(ren). Conversely, with mothers, I encountered more of them that vilified their ex's, than speak about their child(ren). Of course I have met with quite a number of mothers who, like the fathers, were more concerned about their child(ren), than the other parent. Those are mothers that I can align with as they (although it's sometimes difficult for them), believe in the fact that children need both parents. Any parent that alienates and isolates children from the other parent is guilty of child abuse and soul murder. If they're were sane and rational and just laws regarding parenting, equal shared parenting would be the most equitable and just form of parenting.

Two caring, loving, committed natural parents is the best course of action for children. Fathers love their children no less than mothers do! Don't believe it, just look at the disastrous facts and statistics re children absent fathers. It's a pandemic, but you never hear a politician raise their voice calling for a mass movement to eradicate this pandemic. Why? Think about it!

Today I had the privilege of shooting a video of Erin Pizzey at the first Toronto Domestic Violence Symposium. There were many speakers and I got lots of great talks that I will be sharing over the course of the following week. I also had the pleasure of meeting Erin Pizzey in person and speaking with her. She told me that women in Los Angeles are terrified of men going their own way and she completely supports our movement. She even mentions MGTOW at then end of this talk. So enjoy the video.

Post left on Mom and Dad's for Shared Parenting Facebook page: I find your page discriminatory against those of us single mothers who have kept the father of their child away. My children's father is a convicted domestic abuser. Does me keeping him away from out children until the age of 18 make me an alienating parent?????? No it does not, it mskes me a good mother, protecting my kids from a dangerous man.

How about u stop bangin on about equality becauese u r quite clearly in favour of damaging the name of mothers like me. How abot u post some pics about those who dont deserve to see their children, those who don't bother with their children, those who dont support or see their children. . Put ur argument from boh angles, and then post abot equality, but untill u can do that how about keeping ur biggoted opinions to urself

Reply:

• This page is for parental alienation, possibly you should read it better. I am sure you can find a page out there to like that condones you keeping your child away from your ex. How about you go and read some articles about Parental Alienation and the destruction of family law, false cases of domestic abuse, and then come back with a clear educated argument. As well please find a page that agrees with your bias view on parental relationships, and domestic abuse. My page is developed against small minded people like yourself who brag about keeping their child from a father.

Canadians MUST organize to remove the right of the legal profession to self-regulate.
It has NOT earned the right and is creating destruction in the lives of Canadian citizens.

20/20 looking for male victims of abuse: 

I am a producer at ABC News 20/20 and we are researching a story on heterosexual men who experience domestic violence. This is clearly an issue often overlooked by the media but one we know can have equally devastating consequences for relationships and families. Generally speaking I think it is fair to say that many people don't even realize battered men exist which is why we hope an in-depth report can shed light on this misunderstood experience. Ultimately we are looking for a few brave individuals willing to come forward and discuss their experience.
