Can't Condone

So Joyce called. She wanted Dave to call the cops because Tanya had come into her place of employment and had obviously been drinking. That translated into her boyfriend drinking also and then driving. Our child and his girlfriend/ex-girlfriend were with them and obviously high. She commented that it needed to be taken care of tonight and said our child was hitting his girlfriend. She wanted us to make sure the girls were safe after the other time when Tanya and her boyfriend came home drunk. So Dave called the girls and asked if they wanted to come here. Elizabeth said no and that her mom only drinks Pepsi at the bar. Yeah Right. I tried to call Cassie for almost half an hour and got no answer. Finally Tanya answered her phone and that seemed very strange to me. So I called 911 and explained as best I could. Cops went to Tanya's house. Mike and Cassie both denied any abuse going on. I'm sure Tanya backed them as that is what she told me when she called wanting to know what she did wrong in helping her brother that made us try and take her kids away. We weren't trying to take her kids away, but we were concerned for their safety. Too bad she isn't. So the cops couldn't do anything about the domestic violence, but Mike had a felony warrant and they took him on that. So in the end he isn't beating up on Cassie and he is back where he is safe. Safe from drugs and safe from Tanya and her boyfriend.

Two side notes. The 911 operator said they were well acquainted with Tanya's boyfriend (and that is scary). And Cassie told me later that Mike had her phone and that is why Tanya answered it. Yeah right.

I knew that it had been quiet for too long. Maybe now we will have another couple of weeks of quiet.
