To Kill Mockingbird - This Time It Is Personal

Every truth I have told and every investigation I have run has been to help those without voice or platform fight back against bullies. If you have followed my work with Truth Or Bust or are familiar with my efforts as QRilla you will know this to be true. I have reported about character assassination attempts by deceitful people of others and also, out of necessity, myself.

I have always been transparent and open with my identity in reporting truths while maintaining a strict policy of not doxxing those without their consent or direction. People standing in truth have always been the focus of my coverage and that is why the next truther story I am going to bring you is that of my own courageous daughter, Hannah Mullens.

Commence Operation Babygirl.

The attacks on Hannah Mullens were initiated by the father of her son Takoda Michael. I am leaving Takoda's last name out as I am not seeking to doxx the boy's father's identity. There are other players involved but for this chapter I will stick to the basics of the initial attacks and the truth of those accusations.

On October 22, 2020 my daughter called me distressed. She was being stalked by the father of her son whom she had left a few months previously. His behavior towards her had become so controlling that she had to leave him for her own mental well being. It was to a point where he forbade her to go to the bathroom without keeping his foot in the door. While seeking to remove herself from this abusive relationship she at no point had any intent on denying her son Takoda any relationship with his father. For her baby's sake she knew that she would never do that.

I gave my daughter advice that day that I thought was sound. "If you are being stalked go to a police station. Tell them what happened as he likely won't follow you." This was an error on my part apparently as the father of her son promptly jumped in her Hyundai out front of the police station that is in both of their names and drove away with it.

October 22, 2020 was the day Takoda Michael's father took this young mother's transportation from her without any notice.

It is also the last day that that Hannah Mullens held Takoda Michael.

The next few weeks were frantic for Hannah as she responded to this deliberate attack on her mental well being. The father of her child was not willing to let her go. As he told her, 'if he couldn't have her than nobody would.' The sudden witholding of her child from her arms as well as the sudden elimination of simple transportation put Hannah in a bind that could have destroyed a young mother. It is clear that the additional attacks leveled at Hannah while she sought solutions to her basic living and transportation need were focused on one goal... destroying the young mother.

That night Hannah went back to their shared home to retrieve her belongings. There were Denver Police Officers present at the visit to the apartment. With the assistance of Denver PD and a maintenance representative at the apartment complex the condition of the apartment was noted before and after Hannah left the formerly shared home. Takoda's father had set up a camera to secretly record the time Hannah spent inside the home retrieving her belongings. Hannah was angry at having her child and her vehicle taken and was heard on the video saying something about how she wished she could cut the 'stupid coat' of the man who had taken so much from her that day.

This was the key to multiple attacks to come over the next following days.

During those next few days Hannah managed to find an apartment where she could stay and also found a finance program that extended her credit in order to secure the attorneys needed to pursue what is considered a civil matter by law enforcement. She was focused on having her son back in her arms. Her attorneys worked to get her petition in front of a judge as soon as possible in order to restore her presence in the little boy's life.

By this time, the man seeking to punish her for having the courage to leave him and his controlling behavior had mounted a full assault on her integrity. While Hannah deleted her social media so as to keep the battle she found herself in focused and private, Takoda Michael's father began a coordinated campaign to undermine her family relationships and to disingenuosly present himself as a victim. This included doing a livestream of Takoda's birthday from his relatives who live out of state. No consultation with Hannah was made in this travel decision for the infant. In the meantime, Hannah did what she could to hold it together as she had contact with her baby witheld from her on his first birthday.

While Hannah's attorneys prepared a legal and civil response to the witholding of Takoda Michael from Hannah Mullens, the witholding father began his assault on her character and her freedom. He started by taking a knife to his own furniture, cutting the cushions of the couch. He also wrote 'DIE' in lipstick on the bathroom mirror and took photos of that. These photos were then used in an attempt to have her arrested for vandalism. Even worse than that was his campaign with Hannah's family members; most of whom are not in Colorado so were anxious for any news regarding Hannah and Takoda Michael. After destroying property in his own home where Takoda would stay when with his father, Takoda's father went to work on her support network. He reached out to anybody who would give him audience with the photos, secret video, and a whole host of lies about her character and her fitness to mother the child. This attempt to cut Hannah off from her potential support network was manufactured and effective with some that Hannah had not maintained contact with throughout the ordeal. It was also purely motivated by a jilted and weak man's desire to use a child against a woman who left him. To punish her. He sought to push her into a place where she would either have a break down or make a mistake that would lead her to criminal charges. Many family members were told stories about Hannah 'appearing strung out on hard drugs such as heroin or cocaine.' These lies were hurtful to the family of Hannah and Takoda, though they were presented deceitfully as concern for both Hannah and Takoda and much family worry ensued.

Meanwhile Hannah and her legal team got a Petition For Allocation of Parental Responsibilities in front of a Jefferson County judge on November 11, 2020.

The result of this was not exciting for a yearnful mother to accept. The Respondent was given 21 days to reply and an injunction on both parents was ordered. The judge did state during the hearing on the emergency order that it was in the child's best interests to have time with both parents. Takoda's father is committed to the lies he told police and family members at this point so is refusing. Even personal Mockingbirds seek to slow when they know they cannot stop.

More to come on the developments since this Summons for Allocation of Parental Responsibilities was entered in future chapters. For now, I want to make sure those following here on the blockchain realize the entirety of the initial barrage as these are the deliberate lies that will come back to expose them later. Fake news is fake news. As with all my efforts in truthing, I will be fully open about my personal role in this personal information war. When I acted as a journalist while being an activist I told everybody that. Here, I am a citizen journalist engaged in actively trying to defend my daughter from coordinated attack. I have not seen Takoda Michael since October and the little guy loves his namesake. I got pictures to prove it. This reporting may bring me across some of my own story lines as it seems my daughter and I have common enemies allied against us behind the scenes. We will find out. I will be completely forthright about myself while continuing to operate in a space where very important people depend on me maintaining integrity.

We will get more in depth as to how a young mother could have her child ripped from her arms for almost four months now as these chapters progress. There are also criminal elements of this story that I will cover as a result of Hannah being deliberately framed in an effort to get her in jail and in bad straits. There is a legal technical issue that Hannah is seeking guidance on that I may be able to update readers with soon. I also hope to conduct an in person interview with Hannah to help those interested in discerning their own impressions of Hannah and her mental state. Full disclosure Dad moment... I could not be more proud of how she has weathered this storm to date mostly on her own. There were many actively praying for her and the results are clear to those who did that. She now has a team. Operation Babygirl is a go for the Truth or Bust team.

The pitch Takoda's father gave to her family members was that she was strung out on hard drugs and alcohol. He also told these family members that CPS had 'opened a case' into Hannah. He told CPS that a case needed to be opened using the same lies that he told the family and friends who lent ear. Hannah immediately upon finding this out invited CPS to her home and submitted to a drug screen at Hannah's suggestion. Hannah was so forthcoming in her effort to make CPS know these were lies a case was not even opened. As Hannah wants to fight darkness with light, deceit with truth, she has asked me to make the results of the drug screen public and on record in this reporting. As a Colorado resident oftentimes does, she did test positive for THC (which she told CPS right upfront.) You can see for yourself from the following report that the 'strung out' accusations leveled were completely unfounded.

She went to have this drug screen taken the day after she heard of the 'strung out' accusations. The day after the judge said it was in the best interests of the child to be with both parents. Today, she would submit to ridiculous levels of drug testing and more if it made the difference. She is a fierce warrior mama and wants to spend time with her son. It is very sad that lies and attacks are so prevalent in our society, be it high profile media figures or just those working against a young mother and her child. Keeping them apart only makes sense to those who are in the dark on the stories that have been concoted. Whether it is law enforcement, family services, family court, family family, or To Kill Mockingbird readers the truth will come out. Hannah is going to take a page from her father's book and be open and transparent in the pages of her father's book.
