Let's tell Beau Biden to expunge Gordon Smith's arrest record

Beau Biden
From SAVE Services:

Father of two, Gordon Smith was the victim of 14 false police reports by his ex-wife Tiffany Marie Smith of Dover, Delaware. Mr. Smith was falsely arrested nine times for various domestic violence charges, one terrifying time at gunpoint.

Tiffany Smith was caught in her web of deception last September after she cut herself and lay in a ditch, accusing Mr. Smith of attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon. Police used Gordon's electronic device to confirm that he was nowhere near Tiffany at the time, and Tiffany was finally arrested.

Unfortunately, Gordon Smith's arrest record was never expunged. These records will be available to any and all future potential employers. So Tiffany's rein of terror continues.

Today I'm asking you to contact Delaware Attorney General Joseph "Beau" Biden, lll. Tell him: "Expunge Gordon Smith's arrest record!"

Gordon is the Delaware Coordinator for our Domestic Violence Legislative Project (DVLP). Not only does he want to encourage others who have been falsely accused to join the DVLP, he wants to invite you to a public hearing. This is what he had to say:

On Thursday, Jan 17, 2013 the Delaware Family Law Commission will have its annual Public Hearing in Legislative Hall located in Dover. This is an opportunity for citizens of Delaware to share their thoughts regarding the domestic violence policies of the state. SAVE's Delaware chapter of the Domestic Violence Legislative Project will be actively participating in this event.

So join Gordon at the hearing if you can, join the DVLP if you want to become more active in reform, and make the call to Beau.

Thank you all for your dedication,

Sounds great. Let's tell Beau Biden to ease up on Gordon Smith and expunge his record so it doesn't become a burden in the future. This is a burden he didn't ask for but it is one that Tiffany Marie Smith should be held accountable for. She is the one to cause this damage she should be the one to pay. Let's hold her accountable let's contact Beau Biden today.

Tackling domestic violence at the state level

From SAVE:

Stop Abusive and Violent Environments (SAVE) recently asked their Domestic Violence Legislative Project (DVLP) members to take on a one year challenge: Get state-level DV reform legislation enacted into law by June 30, 2013.

As of this writing, twelve states have signed up: Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New York, Oregon, Texas, and Wisconsin. Good thing, since Americans are fed up with fraud, waste, discrimination and false allegations.

Visit www.saveservices.org/dvlp to join the DVLP.

A thank you and a petition from SAVE

The following is from SAVE:

Over the last few months we have called upon all of you to help us reform domestic violence law, specifically the federal Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), S.1925. We have asked you to make phone calls, send emails and sign petitions. And you haven't let us down. Thank you so much!

Today, we'd also like to recognize our volunteers.

We are honored to work with members of the Domestic Violence Legislative Project (DVLP), Campaign 2012, and the Countering Abuse Misinformation Project (CAMP).

Meet two of our volunteers:

DVLP member Relda Copning shared her son's tragic story with the women of WAVE. She also called every senator to talk about VAWA. Sign Relda's petition on false allegations of domestic violence: click here

CAMP member Gordon E. Finley, Ph.D. wrote a letter about VAWA to Washington DC's The Hill. His letter "Time to Sunset Violence Against Women Act" was published on March 27: click here

This is just an example of the dedication that you can find across the country for domestic violence law reform.

Thank you all. You are the best!

Sincerely,

Teri

It's time to take another swipe at VAWA. We need to oppose this at every turn to get the message out that falsely accused men aren't going to take it anymore,that we are going to fight back and the best way to do that is to sign this petition.
