He was unprofessional. He was rude. and he made highly inappropriate comments.

I took offense to the statement that I was chasing a lieutenant colonel, and I was just bitter about not getting myself a lieutenant colonel. And I needed to get over that, and I needed to get on with my life.

Well, it did create a huge speed bump.

Charlamac was not slaughtered.

There is a difference between a stab wound and... It wasn't just a stab wound. Well, I've seen the medical examiner's report.

I am, because what I believe in is truth and justice for all.

He defended his life.

We were going to get to hug Darren and encourage him because he was going to be testifying.

It was, what? We were all just shocked.

What we were being fed is, this is what's happening, this is why, and we're trying to save Darren's life, so we gotta take this.

And so we all loaded up in the cars and drove out to a place where people routinely go shooting and did a little target practicing.

Excellent.

We both had unique experiences in the family court.

I received an email from Darren as well as many other people, and we began corresponding that way.

Probably first and foremost that he was respectful of me. because he valued my opinion. And then probably a close second to that was the fact that he's a family man. Especially being a single mom, you want to make sure that the person that you're dating is someone who has strong family values.

I love him, and I do.

I can't begin to assess what Darren Mack's mental state was. I can tell you that my experience with him was that of a normal relationship. Yes, he was frustrated.

Nothing about anything about Darren conveyed that there was anything being planned.

What came into my mind was, I've got to call Darren and tell him this. This is unbelievable. I mean, we knew lots of people didn't like Judge Weller, and rightly so. There was a lot of people out there who really didn't like this judge.

When I didn't reach him, I immediately text messaged him saying, you know, Judge Weller's been shot. Call me.

Absolutely.

So there was a decision made to call a friend of mine who was a sheriff, a local sheriff, and ask him, well, what do I do? Am I a suspect? Do I go home?

And I said, what? What are you talking about? And I said, I don't know. You know, I just, I couldn't believe any of it. This can't be happening.

It was a very emotional kind of reunion, I guess you would call it. Having, you know, seeing him again for the first time and realizing the full gravity of what had happened. how life was never going to be the same again.

Darren did want protection. They both asked for it, and they didn't get it.

Yes. I'm not denying that. And one person defended his own life.
