Stand with a Mother: Overcoming Injustice

Donation protected
Imagine that you're a single mom with two young daughters, working for a pharmaceutical company selling antidepressants. Every quarter for the last six or so years you question your manager as to why you're numbers aren't populating correctly, which negatively impacts your quarterly commission. With inadequate support from the company you're told your territory is one off, that numbers populate after the quarter ends and to continue to fuel the pipeline which is exactly what you do.

Fast forward to October 2024, my daughters and I wake up several nights in a row to the window alarms going off. The local police department opens an investigation and confirm that someone tried to break in. They document this with pictures, taking pictures of the interior pry marks. They confirm that the gate was also broken into and state this in front of both my children, showing us how they think it was broken.

The CSO of my company finds out that there are break in attempts and offers to "help" by calling the local police department. The local police department closes the investigation and states it's unfounded. Several days later someone tries to break in the front door, but no investigation is conducted. Rather, the police officers state that I didn't pay my ADT bill or that the wind set off my ADT alarm at 3 AM - again in front of my daughters as well as my mother.

As these unfortunate things are happening I start looking at my cameras and have a text message thread with my neighbors. Initially, all my neighbors notice odd cars in my neighborhood (a private road that is one way in and out) sitting outside of my house. I let the police know that it appears people are stalking my family, but nothing is done.

These individuals began following us everywhere we go, including local businesses and government entities. The minute we hit the main road, vehicles start following us and there is a pattern. Within a mile of driving my daughters see USPS, FedEx, UPS, UGI, Met-Ed, followed by empty school buses (no matter what time of day/night) with two bus drivers on it, Schneider Trucks, JB Hunt Trucks, followed by independent box trucks, cement trucks, oil tankers - the list goes on, but the patterns rarely change.

This pattern was also following me to my offices while working. I contacted the fleet company from the company car that I was driving to see if it was possible to be followed by a fleet of cars. They said ABSOLUTELY yes as there are trackers on the vehicle. The pharmaceutical company I worked for at the time suggested that this was not possible and that I was given false information.

Now in January 2025 I called our IT department to state that I believed the company devices were maliciously corrupted. The cybersecurity analyst confirmed that whoever did this to you has money. He also stated "they mess with you, they mess with a dog, they mess with us, they mess with a lion". I was to meet with him in January, prior to taking a LOA so that he could see what happened and help me solve the man in the middle hack where an e-mail was intercepted from reaching the end user.

When I met with him he was restricted with what he could tell me and actually wasn't able to assist me. The CSO came in the room (I never met him before) completely ignoring me and stated that my devices were fine. He then continued to tell me how he was a homicide detective for thirty years and why would anyone follow me, why would anyone track me? But he never, not once offered to come down to see how the tracking device on the vehicle was messing with the electronics on the vehicle. Not once did he offer to help.

Prior to my leave of absence I had asked for an audit in regards to the vehicles tracking me, the doctors as well as pharmacies within my territory and to see who intercepted my email. Due to this I was fired on February 4th, 2025 after being employed for nearly 10 years (8 contracted, 2 direct hire). I was never put on a performance list, never had any HR issues and was always an asset to the team.

Four days after I was let go I was hit head on, deliberately. Both my girls were in the car with me as we had just bought crafts from Hobby Lobby. It was snowing and dark. I had just purchased a Range Rover (my dream car) several days prior as I wasn't driving the company vehicle because of the tracker practically disabling the vehicle. That being said - the car that deliberately hit us turned off his headlights and turned into us. The girls didn't see the car coming, I didn't see the car coming. There was no screaming in the car - nobody said "mom, move - a car is coming". Moreso, when we realized what happened and got out of the car nobody came to help us. Nobody opened up the car doors or windows. There were a ton of witnesses and nobody stayed when they heard the sirens ringing.

Oddly enough, at the busiest intersection with a camera above the cops tried to charge me and say the car accident was my fault. I had to fight the ticket and points - which got dropped as I brought my daughter as a witness to state what she saw - NOTHING.

Since I've lost my job I have applied to more than a dozen jobs and NOBODY has reached out. I have a stellar resume - 10 years in pharmaceuticals and 10 years in non-profit - raising millions of dollars for sick children and young adults. My linkedin account has more recommendations than the average and is one of most visited, but not one person will call me back for an interview.

Fast forward and I found out there was a public service announcement made to slander my name. The community has been following us, using Gen Alpha hand language to communicate about us. The tracker that was most recently found in my vehicle allows the people following us to hear conversations we are having in our vehicle, at times some of the most intimate conversations.

Airpad trackers have gone off at the local YMCA when I walk in with my phone and try to change my daughter after a shower. We have no privacy as people track us throughout Target, grocery stores, parks and anywhere we go. My kids see it, they hear it and now their friends have also noticed. My daughters dentist failed to treat her, yelled at me and cornered me in a small hallway. People have been nasty to us, without knowing us.

I'm raising money as my name has been so badly slandered, that it has been impossible to even land an interview. My goal is to raise money for my family while I raise awareness for women that are victims of slander and deal with PTSD.
