Hi, my name is Marco, and I'm a single father raising my special needs child, for whom I have full custody. I've always worked, followed the rules, and done everything I could to give my son a stable and loving home.

What makes this even harder is that the false allegations appear to have come from my child's mother, who had not contacted or asked about our son for nearly two years. The day I was detained, she suddenly attempted to remove my son from school. The school denied the request and documented the incident in writing. She was later arrested after attempting to retrieve my son from my family's home. This has been terrifying for my child and my family. This person also has 2 restraining orders against her with me and my son listed as the protected party.

I have no criminal record, and court records confirm that the allegations used against me were false. Despite this, I am now facing mounting legal fees, loss of income, and the very real risk of losing our home while I fight to clear my name and restore my ability to work.

I'm asking for help to cover:

Any support, whether through a donation or simply sharing this page would mean more than I can express. I am fighting not just for myself, but for my son's safety, stability, and future.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for standing with us during this incredibly difficult moment.

Marco
