I filed a police report last week

I’m 100% sure my abuser is violating my order of protection…again. Let’s rewind: You know I’m active on social media – Tik Tok, especially. It’s been amazing to share my story and help so many while educating about domestic abuse and animal abuse. I’ve also been in the news plenty of times. My abuser, whoContinue reading “I filed a police report last week”

I’m going to be in the news again

The reporter (very kind) is doing my story and told me he contacted the Will County State’s Attorney office to ask about my case, and they told him they were reviewing my case. If that’s true, great, if not, I know political talk. But, I’ve decided (as I shared) that I’m not going to pursueContinue reading “I’m going to be in the news again”

My abuser is banned from talking to the Judge in our court case 😳

Yep, as of today. Like there’s an official court order prohibiting Mat from communicating with our judge. On February 2, Mat emailed the Judge in our case. He said this: “So Sarah Manos has given out my person information to the point I had to change my number and did over 3,000 in damages toContinue reading “My abuser is banned from talking to the Judge in our court case 😳”

This time is different.

^ Quote from my therapist I was telling her how anxious I was about filing this police report and nervous and scared of it being the same as the last time I was so hurt and traumatized by the system. And she said, “this time is different, it’s not the same experience.” And that comfortsContinue reading “This time is different.”

One last fight.

I don’t want any judgement or negativity because this is my life, my dogs were killed and died in my arms, this is my fight. I filed a police report in Mokena yesterday. Yeah, I flew into Chicago for the day, drove down to Mokena, filed a police report, and flew home. It was aContinue reading “One last fight.”

I emailed the police & prosecutor…again

I’m like 75% not expecting a reply and 98% expecting them to essentially tell me to f*#% off but I mean it when I say that I’m going to fight until the end. So here’s why I emailed them. In the past few weeks, I’ve had three women reach out to me as having dated/beenContinue reading “I emailed the police & prosecutor…again”

I’m saving lives.

I’m crying and I’ll add more to this post soon but I’m saving lives and I can’t tell you what that means to me. With everything, the injustice system not pressing charges against Mat, the bullshit we’re dealing with in court with this lawsuit, none of that matters because I’m saving lives. I’m telling myContinue reading “I’m saving lives.”

I’m angry. Angrier than I thought. Fuck the system.

I’m so angry. I’m so hurt. Fuck the system. Fuck Kim Foxx. Fuck the prosecutors who victim blamed. Fuck them. I’m angry. And hurt. And I need to talk about it. Or write about it for now (I have therapy tomorrow night). I’m so angry and hurt I feel myself coming to tears. On Tuesday,Continue reading “I’m angry. Angrier than I thought. Fuck the system.”
