My Story – Javanna

Oh my God where do I start, in 2013 through trauma I met what is now my precious daughter’s dad and her kidnapper, both of our abusers and I can’t do anything about it. When we first met we were both drinking and using drugs, he’s affiliated with a gang and was dealing. I was wild and it didn’t take long before our relationship got very violent with him hitting me and threatening my life. I don’t know why I kept going back to him but I did. Through our traumatic relationship we got tired and decided that we wanted to quit drinking and we did we decided to have a baby and get married. Before we were pregnant we talked about the possibility of us not staying together and if we did that we would always respect each other as parents and raise our child to the best of our ability. Shortly after I was pregnant the abuse became way more extreme he would hit me in my stomach and tell me things like” I’m going to shoot you in my house and wrap you in this carpet and takes you out to the delta and nobody is even going to look for you because nobody cares about you, nobody loves you”… During my pregnancy I wanted him to be a part of it I wanted to be with him and have a family and I didn’t understand why he was being so cold to me but I had an apartment and he lived in a house and one day I asked him if he would bring what I had left at his house over and he did and my clothes were covered in semen and he told me that it was from his random girlfriend that he had been cheating on me with the whole time. During my pregnancy he also began stalking this other woman and telling me that they were in a relationship and that was just breaking my heart because I was like 6 months pregnant during that time I had confronted the women and that woman had told explain to me that they were not in a relationship so he was just making that up but it affected me very bad. Then after I had the baby there was just incident after incident but he didn’t spend any time with us when she was first born he stayed away and the very first night that he ever came to my apartment to spend the night with his newborn daughter she was about six or seven months old I was still nursing and she was not used to him and he wanted sex from me he ended up spanking my little girl very hard in the chest four times and then after I grabbed her up out of the bed that we were in and got her to start to fall asleep he pushed himself on me and then left. After that his plan to take my daughter from me was in full effect and he ended up paying some judges and Placer County $100,000 to kidnap my baby and now I haven’t seen my child in 2 years… I’m still living in crisis, I just don’t understand how this could happen. I’m a hard-working woman, I’m not an alcoholic I’m not a drug addict, and not an abuser but this man has legally kidnapped my child against court orders against domestic violence restraining orders… I just don’t understand why or how? I’ve mailed the attorney general, I have been in and out of court more times than I can possibly tell you I keep fighting because I love my child and I’ll never give up on her. I’ll never stop fighting for her and coming for her I am a mother, I am a warrior of God.

Thank you for hearing my story.

Sincerely,
