Twerps Recruit My Ex-Stepchildren to Help Spread the Abuse of the Followers

I thought long and hard about this post, but seeing that my ex-husband's children and family have it in for me so bad that they have went as far as siding with the Terpening Followers to bash me, I thought I would have some fun with this one.

My ex-husband, Mark McLeod, is a neighbor to Terpening and his wife and has been for several years. 

So, it was quite hilarious when I discovered the lies Mark's son, Mark Jr. has been telling the other side. Don't get me wrong, there is some truth to some of the things they say, but my ex-stepchildren love to add their own twists and lies to facts in order to play the "victim role", which is an unfortunate trait they picked up from their father. 

So, I will elaborate more on this, for those intelligent people who love to deal with pathological liars. Yes, my marriage to Mark was extremely abusive. He is a narcissistic man who is 300% alpha-male, so to speak. I moved from Kalamazoo to Bellevue shortly before we got married. I was 13 years younger than him and very naive at that time. All my friends and family were back in Kalamazoo, and I was rarely allowed to even call my parents because Mark felt that phone bills were a waste of money. One of his favorite things to do was to lock up the phones on me, so I was isolated and had no contact with anyone.

Once the abuse began, it didn't take long to get out of hand. During my time with Mark, I became pregnant with a daughter. When I was almost six months along, his physical abuse triggered a series of events that caused me to lose my baby. After this happened, I was at my angriest in that relationship. Like a fool, I didn't report what happened because I knew he would be in big trouble.

Yes, one day when he was beating me, I tried to run to our bedroom and lock the door, but I could not get away from him. I pushed him to get him away from me, and he did take a tumble down the stairs. Do I feel bad about it? Not hardly. It was not my intent to push him down the stairs, but when you are defending yourself, unfortunate things can happen.

Once, when he was beating me, he grabbed me and had my head forced between my knees (I had been knocked to the floor and was in a sitting position). I couldn't breathe and felt great tension in my neck. In self-defense, I grabbed him by the testicles and twisted them as hard as I could. When he dropped to his knees, I did punch him in the nose, which did appear to be broken afterwards. My nose was never broken during our few, miserable years together. 

And yes, I punched out the window. I was not living with Mark at the time, as I had my own apartment in Battle Creek. However, we were trying to work things out in our marriage. Yes, I was drunk that night (I am a recovering alcoholic). I had been at his house for a week, and to this day, I'm not sure what we were fighting about. I packed up what I had there into my car and had made a couple trips loading stuff up when he locked me out of the house. I was going to unlock the door, but he had taken my house key off my key chain. So, I punched the window out. In doing so, I sliced through an artery so badly that blood was shooting out of my hand to the beat of my pulse. My concern was not to go after my husband but to get to the hospital before I bled to death. I didn't even go back into the house. I remember him saying he was getting a blanket and taking me to the hospital, but by the time he returned to the door to leave, I was already gone in my car.

By the time I got to Bronson Battle Creek (formerly Battle Creek Health System), the inside of my car looked like someone had been murdered in it. Blood had shot across my windshield and dashboard, and there was a large puddle of blood in the passenger seat where I had rested my hand in route to the hospital. There was so much blood that hospital security would not move my car without covering everything up with hospital gowns and garbage bags. 

And his kids? That is another joke. Because their mother died when they were little, Mark did not discipline them appropriately. He let them get away with murder, and the only time he disciplined them was when they angered him badly, at which point he would become abusive to them. They were allowed to talk to me as they chose, lie, and steal from me. He used them as tools to abuse my children and me. My children endured hell at the hands of Mark McLeod, and so did his. 

I remember, once, picking up Tiffany (Mark's daughter) from a friend's house. I hit a deer with my car on the way home, and Mark beat the hell out of Tiffany for it. I heard her screaming in the bedroom, and he was sitting on top of her on the floor, choking her so hard, her face was turning blue. I tried to pull him off of her, but he went right back at her. To this day, I vividly remember the marks he left on her neck. The poor girl had to go to church that Sunday with what looked like hickies on her neck.

I also remember when Mark Jr. accidentally ran his cousin over with a riding lawn mower when they were around 9 years old. The kid was lucky he didn't lose his leg, but he did require some intense medical attention. When I returned home from going to the hospital with the cousin, Mark Jr. was in a t-shirt and underwear, and his dad beat him with a 1x4 wooden board for punishment of an ACCIDENT.

And, I will never forget the day my son (who was a toddler at the time) woke up crying in the middle of the night. Mark got out of bed and said he would handle it. I heard my son's crying become muffled, so I went downstairs to see what was going on, and Mark had a pillow across my son's face. Yeah, I beat the hell out of him for it. In a marriage like this, all I could think about was staying alive. 

Why did I stay do long? For one, I had no place to go besides a homeless shelter. I also did not want to leave my ex-stepchildren alone with him. If I could have taken them with me, I would have. Looking back, I would have left him the first time he put his hands on me. But, I was a victim and knew nothing but abuse growing up. I tried to stay in Mark's kids' lives because their mother was gone.

Tiffany

Mark Jr.

The end of the marriage came the day that Mark came after me with an axe in front of my son. What scared me the worst was that my son appeared unaffected by what was happening in front of him. I knew it was time to get my kids out of there. Mark was arrested for a felony assault with a deadly weapon, as well as possession of marijuana that he had grown himself. The marijuana charges were dropped in a plea deal, and he served 45 days in the Barry County Jail, with six months to complete it.

And, as they say, birds of a feather flock together, and neither of Mark's children can think as individuals or alone or stand up to their father, so they recruit their cousins to become involved in their abuse towards me. Because I have one of my children up for adoption, everyone is saying I lost my kids, which is not true. I have custody of all my children (joint legal and physical of one and sole legal and physical of the other two), except for my adopted daughter. Not to mention, Mark Jr. is now friends with Jamie Moore-Bell and Katie Rucinski on Facebook.

This picture was taken of his Facebook wall on Sunday, after I was threatened by his cousin Thelma, who threatened to come to my house to fight me in a private message. She, just like the Twerpies, blocked me so I wouldn't see her IDLE threats. These messages happened after she threatened to come to my house and didn't show up. One thing all the Twerpies have fun with is the fact I gave my daughter up for adoption when she was born. I was only 18 and had one child already. I did not feel that I was in a good position in life to be trying to raise two children. So, I chose adoption, which was a far better decision than abortion (which I would never do). Thelma makes a comment about me getting burned by fire, but I have no idea what she is referring to. She is one of those types who has a very big mouth with no intent of backing it. Seriously, after being married to her uncle, I have learned there is little on this planet to be afraid of. As you can see, they have had a wonderful upbringing the way they have no respect for people. 

Why would I go see Thelma? She has my address, and she is welcome to stop by. But, she won't. People like her run their mouths but can barely back their words.

As you can see, Katie likes this picture that Mark Jr. posted. Seems odd, after she cried and whined about how he treated her last winter when I introduced the two of them, that she would be talking to him again. It was so bad between the two of them that she almost called the police on him.

Later on, a few years after the divorce, Mark and I reconciled a friendship and even dated off and on for a couple years. He never was physically abusive towards me after his arrest, but he sure did make up for it with his mouth. I rented a couple rooms from him at the end of 2011, until I bought my house in March. Even though he had unlimited local and long distance on his phone, he still hid the phones from me, so it is not because of the phone bills he did that. He did it just to be an asshole. He was hiding the phones then because it was constantly ringing, one of the Terpening Followers and Terpening himself called frequently. He did not want me to be involved in this case while I was living at his house. Everything HAS to be about him. 

All this, coming from an alleged "Christian" man who attends church regularly. He has a felony for abusing me but still drives kids to youth programs for his church. 

But, thanks to my ex-stepchildren's non-stop running mouths, it has been revealed that there were video cameras hidden to spy on me (felony in Michigan) when I was staying with Mark the last time. I will let my lawyer handle this one.

I made contact with Mark Jr. in hopes of putting a stop to this crap, so I wouldn't have to go to my lawyer. Instead of being a reasonable 21-year old man, he lied to people and said I threatened to call the cops. After everything that has happened with this case, I am aware this is a civil issue, so why would I call the cops? This same man has had at least one Personal Protection Order against from females in his life. It could be expired by now, I don't know about that. He has a tendency to stalk girls and become verbally abusive with him, as Katie Rucinski discovered earlier this year when she was trying to date him. 

And, the Twerpies are just as dumb to believe it all and re-post it online. They have me blocked so they can talk on Facebook about me, spread more lies, thinking I can't see. But, I have seen it all. But, that is to be expected of the Twerpies, as they thrive on any information they can use to abuse anyone not in support of Terpening. One Follower, Laura Underwood in particular, seems to be having great fun with the information she has received about me. I guess because she knew me when we were children that she has an edge on everyone as one of Terpening's abusers to the public.

What is Love?

What is the true definition of love? Well, it depends on the type of love, as there are a few types, according to the Greeks.

• Philia - means friendship or affection love and refers to the type of love that happens between good friends and family. This type love is dispassionate, virtuous, and non-sexual. It is also referred to as "brotherly love". 
• Agape - means unconditional love, the type of love that comes with holding high respect for another and can also happen between friends and family. This is the type of love that shows in action when you do something for another, even when you don't want to. It is also referred to as "sacrificial love".
• Eros - means passionate love. This type of love occurs between lovers and spouses and is intimate, with sensual desire and longing. This love is stronger than philia, the friendship love, and brings strong emotion with it.

Recently, I have seen comments being made regarding the relationships that Reigh has with Rob and me. Hannah Coy posted a status update about emails between Reigh and Rob and went as far as to say that Rob is grooming him. She also calls Rob a monster.

I laugh when I read this. Rob has not groomed Reigh in any way. He has been nothing but kind to Reigh and a good friend. Rob and I definitely have our differences, but we have one common goal: to see Reigh get past what has happened in his life in order to move forward and be successful. Whether or not Terpening is found guilty is irrelevant, Reigh still has to learn to move on and have a good life. 

When Reigh was sent to the House Next Door, he was in need of a good fatherly figure and people who cared for him. He desperately needed a combination of agape and philia love. But, that's not what he received when he went to stay at the facility. 

Reigh was failed 300% by the staff at the House Next Door (except for one, and he knows who he is) who were either 1) too clueless to see obvious signs of abuse happening under their noses, or 2) knew about the abuse and chose to look away. Terpening picked excellent employees to work for him because they would esteem him as their idol who does no wrong.

So, I wonder, what the big deal is that people have stepped up to care for Reigh and helping to clean up the mess that Terpening has created? Does Reigh not deserve SOMEONE to love him and care for him? Does he not deserve a place to lay his head down at night without fear of being victimized by Terpening or beaten up by one of the other guys in the home.

The Followers turn everything good into something dirty. Because their nature is to abuse others, they cannot recognize a good thing to save their lives. Are they mad at themselves for failing these kids? Is the one that worked the most hours angry with herself because of what she cannot face, especially after losing a couple children in the early years? Is she angry at herself for sharing personal, confidential information about the residents of the facility with her best friend? Is she upset with herself for sacrificing her own paycheck to support her idol?

I have news for the Followers, this is far from over for the victims. They have to live with what happened and figure out how to do something with their lives. Reigh played you with the recant video. Anyone with brains can figure he is still messing with them and getting them hyped up. It only brings out their fangs and shows what types of people those kids were subjected to being around.

And now what? I have been warned of what is about to happen. And, this is a very bad time for my "give a damn" to be busted. I know the Followers were hoping I would just go away quietly. Why, so you can talk about me online the way you talk about the people trying to get to the bottom of the truth? Of course, I am going to say what happened. Be thankful I haven't said 90% of what I could have said, and still could. When you lie, people are going to fight back with the truth. These victims deserve that much after dealing with failures.

And the future victims that have been left behind still need to be protected before they are groomed to replace Terpening.

Thanks for the Compliment, Susie

So, this morning, I received information that I am being talked about AGAIN. This is nothing new, and as I have said before, if the Twerp clones are talking about me, that is less time they have to tear apart the victims in "The Terpening Sex Crime Scandal". I guess it was time to take a break from work and check it out for myself.

However, I was surprised to hear Susan Ward Gillihan refer to me as "intelligent". Lacking common sense, too, apparently, which sometimes, it is true. If I had all the common sense I needed, I would never have supported Terpening for a millisecond. But, for a few months, I did. I am also guilty of saying things and doing things that were inappropriate. And there is no excuse for it. Maybe that is why I didn't go away quietly. I feel I owed it to the victims and their families to make sure the truth is revealed, even if it makes me look bad.


Do I regret it? Absolutely not. There are too many stories in the news regarding foster children being victimized and molested by their foster parents. IF Michael is guilty of these crimes, that's one more person who cannot victimize more kids. 


The decision to turn away from the cult was easy; however, finding out I was lied to and having to walk away from certain people in this case was difficult, because of interactions between us from the earlier days. But, truthfully, I wouldn't change my decision for anything. 


The victims are the priority here, first and foremost. And, I applaud these men for coming forward and putting a wrench in a man's very sick and sadistic business of "foster care" (allegedly, let's not forget that word). I don't think Terpening took enough time to find out how strong these victims could be before he allegedly groomed them and forced and coerced them into acts that will affect their lives for years to come. The fact the victims have not folded under the abuse of Terpening and his Followers is nothing short of amazing.


When I am going through previous messages between me and other Followers from before I turned away, things I said and did then were not appropriate, and I will admit that. To think I was a part of this group in any way taught me a valuable lesson in getting ALL the facts before making a move on anything. I am sure I will have plenty to answer for before this is over and done with, and that's fine. 


It can't be any worse than worrying, constantly, about the revenge that could be sought on me for turning away (my house could catch fire or CPS could get sent again). 


But, what will be will be. And, I have enough intelligence to know that the Attorney General's office has an extremely high success rate, and Angela is not going to push forward with this without EVIDENCE. If Michael is found guilty, it will NOT be because of "government corruption", but because of his own actions and those of his trained group of dogs.


Did you guys really think I was going to go away quietly? My name and things I wrote in support of Terpening had to come off the Internet. Not to mention, the Followers pushed Reigh and I together CONSTANTLY. How many phone calls did I have to make to him at the request of all of you? More than I can count.


But, I am glad for that. I would not trade that kid for the world. He is extremely intelligent and will leave a mark on this world, as will the other victims who decided that enough is enough. 


Sticking my nose where it doesn't belong? Seriously? Susie, may I remind you of all the dirty places your nose has been (and mine once, too)? In the business of EVERY person named Dewey in southwest Michigan? How about privileged (and gagged) information regarding the victim in the next trial (CD)? Oh, let's not forget the picture you folks have of the web designer driving illegally? (Seeing as how you supply most of the rides...hmm.)
