Help Restore Safety and Peace for My Family

Donation protected
Hi community,

I'm a single trans dad and over the last four years I have been experiencing a horrific amount of cyberbullying and stalking. This has led to CPS showing up at my home multiple times, police officers showing up to do wellness checks at all hours of the night, animal control being called and showing up, death threats while being told to lock my doors at night, and more.

It has recently escalated to the point of my home being violated, and I no longer feel safe. Upon returning home from my trip last, I discovered that the person who was supposed to be house-sitting for me and had planned on doing a trial period of living together had not only vandalized (the police used this language first) my home but has also made it almost impossible for me to function in it. In addition to this, he has both videos and photos of my home when it was at its worst, which my cyberbullies now have. In retaliation for being told to leave, he made yet another false CPS report, which led to a surprise visit this week.

And I am done. I am done living in this state of constant fear. I'm ready to share my story, but I need your help to do so.

I have tried to do my best to clean and rearrange and feel safe in my home, but I don't. This is the home I gave birth to my child in and said see you later to my heart dog in, my sanctuary. I need your help getting back to that safe place.

This GoFundMe is going directly to paying my rent for this month as well as the next two months to get me through this year. This will allow me to spend time away from my home while I get it to where it feels safe again. This will also relieve a massive amount of stress as I try to figure out how to travel for surgery and continue moving forward with taking legal action.

In addition to covering my rent, this will also allow me to finally get a security system that helps me feel safer than the one we currently have.

Lastly, on top of all of this, I will be surrendering my minivan this week. After two years of paying $1350 for it (not including gas), I've come to terms with the fact it is well beyond my means at this point in my life. I have secured another car that I will be able to pay for by working it off, but I have not been able to afford to transfer the title and get it insured. Also, a false narrative the cyberbullies are currently trying to create is that I'm driving illegally, which is not true.

I will happily add photos of attorney fees I've already had to pay (which impacted my ability to pay my rent), proof that my license is in fact current, as well as the proof that rent was paid.

Anything raised beyond this will be used to cover my legal fees to secure protection orders. And then when I have those protection orders and can finally breathe, the real fun starts. Yes, I work.

This is no longer about protecting me and my family. This is about creating laws and the change needed to protect other families as well. I have the case to do that, but I can't do it alone.

The beautiful thing that life has taught me time and time again is that what we can't do alone, we can do together. Let's not only put an end to this for me and Wilder, but create a plan and laws to prevent it from happening to other families.

Stability is coming. Thank you so much to everyone who has continued to help me survive these last four years.

With love and gratitude,
Danny
