All A Big Misunderstanding
I will be the first to admit that I like Hayden Panettiere. I know her and she has always been wonderful to me. But, at the same time, I feel like I have to go a little Dutch Uncle on her. Can you be a Dutch Uncle? I know there is Dutch Aunt, but I am really not into the whole dressing up thing. I chafe easily.
Anyway, Hayden has been trying to do some damage control in regards to the arrest of her dad for suspicion of felony spousal abuse. "It was blown way out of proportion by a sheriff who wanted his 15 minutes of fame. My family is wonderful, so very happy. We're all great."
Honestly, the sheriff in this case is already pretty famous and has had way more than his 15 minutes. Plus, he wasn't the guy who was making the arrest. The police at the scene made the arrest.
Hayden's parents when they were on television called it a "big misunderstanding." Uh huh. So, when Hayden's mom called the cops it was just because she thought her husband was going to beat the crap out of her, but he didn't and so when the police came they should have let him stay? Or perhaps, he slipped while fixing himself an ice cream sundae, and popped her in the face as he fell. She thought he was abusing her and so called the cops, and didn't realize it was an ice cream incident at the time. Just a big misunderstanding. It was a fake fight. Hayden's dad told her to move right, and she moved left. Just a big misunderstanding.
The next time it happens, I am sure it will be an accident. If it happens after that, it was probably just because he had a bad day at the firehouse. The time after that is just because he had a little too much to drink. After that? Hey, I could go on all day.
Honestly, this all makes me a little sick. Hayden's mom called the cops for a reason. Sure, she could have meant to dial 411, but when the cops came, they arrested Hayden's dad. Why? Was that just a misunderstanding also. Did he think he was going out on patrol with them when they handcuffed him and put him in the car? How about some people taking some responsibility and not being a statistic.

That's what I hate about these DV cases. I understand battered women's syndrome but I have no sympathy when kids are involved or when the neighbor and/or police put their ass on the line for the victim and then they get slimed and lied about.
ReplyDeleteI just don't understand it! NO ONE... and I mean NO ONE is worth staying with if domestic violence is involved. and before anyone jumps on me for that blanket statement...been there, done that and left that...then was stalked for a year and hid for 6 months...so NO ONE is worth it.
ReplyDeleteTalk about no self-esteem.
ReplyDeletewhere did this happen?
ReplyDeletedon't they HAVE to take them away in L.A., enty?
I'm not sure, but I think in these parts, if the cops get called in a domestic situation, SOMEONE gets hauled off. At the very least, someone has to leave the premises.
ReplyDeleteThey always book them as a felony domestic violence which means $50,000 bail. It keeps them in jail until their arraignment when it is generally reduced to a misdemeanor. Call it a cooling down period.

ReplyDeleteYeah the sawed-off shotgun will accidentally blow her away.
