I had no sooner watered the vegetable garden before 10 am than a storm appeared out of nowhere and within 15 minutes everything was flooding, especially this shed. I stood with my heart in my mouth knowing that I had just managed to dry it out, and I would be shoveling mud, fighting mold and in dire straights all over again. The bed that I had managed to get cleaned yesterday is now covered in mud.
Earlier one of the doe's arrived with her new born fawn. We have not seen as many new born fawns around here this year, which is a bit unusual.
As the rain continued I decided to go to Wal-Green, and I bumped into Ted Conley. Ted and his friend, Francis McKinney, were both victims of Robert Huckins losing a total amount of around $70,000 between them.
I doubt that anyone really knows the impressions they leave in their actions. But during 2008 had it not been for Ted I would have had a nervous breakdown.
Ted gave me clarity of thought, direction. He gave me grounding when I couldn't get any help from anyone. Each week I would stop by Conley's Nursery and we would run through everything that was going on, and what action I could take to try and get help. Yet Ted knew that I would never get the stolen money back, even though at the time the stolen money had not yet been removed from the bank and hidden by Robert Huckins.
Today Ted continued to express the reality that I would never see the total amount of the building fund returned. For myself it means that, bar a miracle, I will die homeless. I know that Robert Huckins is still playing games, for he knows that left homeless I can't get on my feet, he knows that I can't afford to rent and he can continue keeping my family shattered. Deep down I am quite convinced that he thinks that I, like Dorothy, can't physically withstand the hardship and will just die.
He may be right.
I just refuse to die homeless quietly.
There has to be someone related to Robert & Sylve Huckins must have some means to reach them, if it be Michael Huckins, Dr.Kenneth Ogilvie ( Diana Huckins? Dominic Huckins? Malcolm Huckins? ) or Patricia Ogilvie-Huckins and get them to return ALL of the money they stole from us so that I can buy a home and get our lives back.
I don't believe I have EVER witnessed any none violent crime that can be as devastating as stealing someone's home. I am walking in Dorothy McKeevers footsteps, day by day, month by month, year by year.
Patricia Ogilvie-Huckins you were present the day I signed contract with your son. You walked out of the kitchen with Sylvi Huckins and your son introduced me to you. He told you that I was the British horse trainer he had told you about, the one he was going to build the home and barn for. Why didn't you say something? There may be a rational and reasonable explanation but I have spent over 3 years, homeless, not understanding it. I understand it even less knowing that though I was a total stranger, both Dorothy McKeever and Sally Canning you KNEW.
Dr. Kenneth Ogilvie, I contacted you and simply asked for a reference, not knowing that Robert Huckins was your cousin. Robert Huckins had just stolen over $30,000 from the domestic violence shelter, HEAL, yet everyone was trying to hide it. There was a history of stealing large amounts of money. $65,000 PLUS from Nancy Canning. $89,000 PLUS from Dorothy McKeever. The list just goes on and on and on.
Today Robert Huckins has his own home...
He also has OUR home.....
He also has a lot of people's money...
And his freedom.
Women are not banks or loan institutions. Women should not be the source of a retirement fund for people who don't want to do an honest day's work for an honest day's pay. Holding women hostage while playing with the judicial system, a horrendous game of cat and mouse extending YEARS, with the victims whose very homes, families and stability are in jeopardy is cruelty, as cruel as a physical beating. It is financial and emotional RAPE. Homelessness is not justice. It is a slow, painful death.
Please, I beg with everything I have within me, please convince Robert Huckins to stop this torture and return the building fund he stole from us so we too, can have a home.
As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other. ~ John Stuart Mill
