Hi all My story starts 2 week ago- and Im sure it will run and run. Last Friday, I was on facebook and noticed it was my next door neighbours Birthday, so I wished her happy birthday. Then she posted that she was home alone as her husband was working nights and her kids were either out or working ( she has 4), so I thought " she will be around soon," as she has done it before when she was drunk. Anyway, I was just off to bed as I had to work the next day, when I head a knock on my door - I ignored it at first as I knew it was her, but she knocked again, so I opened the door and she almost fell through it as she was so drunk.
I told her I couldnt stay up long as I had to be up early. She plonked a wicker basket on the table and took out a can of cider and started drinking it and also had another can and bottle of wine in there. We talked for about 10-15 mins, then she asked to go to the toilet, I said you know where it is- next thing she is coming down the stairs with my hubby behind her. She had gone and woken him up, saying "its my Birthday, come and have a drink with me". She opened the wine and gave him a glass. I stayed for about 10 minutes, then took the opportunity to go to bed.
This was the last I knew until 5.30 the next morning, when 2 policeman were absolutely knocking my door down - they woke up he whole estate and the estate next door - there is no reason for this whatsoever! They said she had accused him of raping her, and he took the clothes he was wearing the previous night. Meanwhile, my 25 year old son, who lives with us, came into my bedroom, and told me what he had been accused of. When they left, my son told me that this woman had come around at about 2am , into his bedroom and told him that his dad had raped her.
He told her to get out as she was drunk. She said - if you wont do it, then I will, so he saw her out of the door and watched her go into her door.His dad was then in the kitchen. She went home and then apparantly called the police at about 2am. We were talking and I asked him " when and where did this rape take place?" He didnt know. A couple of hours later, I was asked to go to the local police station and make a statement, which I did. Then my son went down there and made one. Afterwards, we spoke, and he told me the first thing that he knew about her being there was when she was shouting at his dad to get up and have a drink. H e heard all three of us talking for about 10-15 mins, then heard me go to bed at about 12.45. About 15-20 mins later he heard his dad say "Im taking you home -youre drunk" - he looked and saw him frog marching her out of the front door as she could hardly walk. He didnt hear the door close and was worried about the dogs getting out ( We have 2 lurchers and they can escape from anywhere if the door is not locked).
He went downstairs, out of the door and saw his dad coming back from next door, but the 1 dog was out, so they got him back in. This all took about 2-3 mins according to my husband and son. My husband then went into the kitchen/diner and sonny went back to bed. As I said ,the next thing we know, is door is being knocked off its hinges! It wasnt until later on that evening, I found out what was supposed to have happened. My husband was released on bail, even tho the duty officer wanted to keep him in all weekend, but the duty solicitor said no way.
A policewoman rang me and said as he had no family, would one of my family be willing to put him up for a week as he was not allowed to come home with her living next door. My sisters were with me and both said yes. But both live quite close ( is a small town) and they were not happy! I said I have family living a couple of hundred miles away ( son and daughter) but that was too far! They eventually released him to my one sisters house for a week. The 3 conditions were - he wasnt allowed into our estate, he couldnt talk to the family concerned and he must reside at my sisters address. Fine.
We were told the dna results would be back on the Wednesday ( by the way,) she told police - he raped her and ejaculated into her, she was screaming at the top of her voice and was scratching him and thumping him in the face. This was all supposed to have happened in the few minutes my son saw him take her home and saw him come back. He had no marks on him, apart from a couple of small holes on his hand, which he said the dog had done a couple of days previously. The doctor said he could see the mark was a few days old. He gave DNA willingly as he said nothing would show up.
She refused to do a video statement on the Saturday as she said she was "too tired" and would do one on the Monday, we presume she did give one, tho we have heard nothing. I had booked the following weekend off work for us to go and stay with my daughter and son, as it was her Birthday, but the solicitor said we could not go ( or, he could not go) as it was breaking the bail conditions. He said the dna would be back mid week so things could change. He was bailed til 3rd July at the city police station.
The day before(his Birthday) he was told not to go, as the dna results were not back and he was being further bailed til 17th August. The dna apparantly gets sent off in stages. He then asked if he was allowed to go visit our children and was told - no, it takes a court to change the conditions But I had already read on here that the duty officer could do it - they were most surprised at that! So we are allowed to go ( going tomorrow) In the meantime, He has to say at my sisters house,sleeping on the sofa ( he is 6 feet 3inches) even tho they told her it would only be for a week.
I am now having to pay for his "keep" there, even tho she tells me no. Her partner is out of work, as is my husband. I am struggling with the bills as it is, on basically minimum wage, as she is. He has 2 job interviews next week, but if he doesnt mention all this, what happens if he gets a job and is then charged and has to go to court? He will prob lose it again! Apart from this, we have 2 dogs and when im at work, they will be on their own for 13 hours a day! Apart from my sons statement my sister in law and brother live next door to her on the otherside.
My sister in law was up between 1am - 2am that night and heard her say (tho she does not know who to, as she didnt look) " Biddys Still up" so why did she come back round to the house of the person that was supposed to have raped her and not to the other side! She did not hear her shouting, altho she has in the past when her husband has been beating her up .Also, her husband waited til my brother went out and went and apologised to my sister in law for all the hassle. We are not supposed to comunicate. We have not as yet told anybody about what my sister in law heard as no one knew until the statements were already given - do you think we should tell someone, would it make any difference?
I am just waiting for the DNA results - if he did what she said, then his dna will be all over her, if there is no match then I will know he is innocent. She had 4 kids upstairs that night and not one of them heard her screaming?And believe me she has a voice like a foghorn! What do you all think? Thanks for reading my rambling!
