Two days ago I was unexpectedly pulled over with arrest warrant for allegations going back many years. I know with an attorney they will prove my innocence, and these allegations will be dismissed. With a public defender, I fear I will be at the mercy of the judicial system. With the help of friends, I have been able to make bail and begin seeking legal counsel.

I am going to give it my all to fight it. I am not giving up. I have worked too hard to feel and know I am a human and I have a right to be on this planet to give up now.

As many of you know, I have had a difficult past few years. I had finally gotten to a good place, and I am in school full time at ASU for neuroscience. I currently have a 4.0 GPA.

I have spent many years recovering from CPTSD and overcoming many personal hurdles.

I have done all this with the love, help and support of my community. I really need community right now, I can not do this alone.

I sold my car and have the first 10,000. The attorney will set up a payment plan for future payments.

I need your help. Everything helps.

Thank you,

Veronica
