Re: Let's talk about julie324's ex-con husband.

/rests chin on hand and stares at julie324 expectantly
Yeah that's right my name's Yauch!
Oooooooooooh juicy.
*sits down and waits patiently*
Hence why her parents don't want her to have control over her own money?
Damn, not necessarily a felon.
Criminal past, criminal past.....
Imma go with Grand Theft Auto.

Pulls up a chair.

Thanks.
LOL! I left for a bit. I had to give people time to get popcorn. LOL! In all honesty, I don't even have the whole story and if I am completely honest he doesn't like to admit to it and would kill me if he knew it was out there. He loves cars. He was looking at cars (I think used) at a dealership. Dealership was closed at the time so I am not quite sure why he didn't wait until it was open. Police thought he looked suspicious. His side of the story is he had a car stereo that someome had given him and he didn't realize it was stolen. (I don't really believe that) I am not sure what he was thinking. Anyway, I just think he is a different person now. Maybe a few months of jail time will do that to you if it doesn't make you a better criminal.
All of this happened in 1993. He hasn't been in trouble again since. I also think alcohol probably played a part in the original incident and he no longer drinks. If his crime had had anything to do with a kid, I would not have dated him. Some people still judge him not that I broadcast his past. (my immediate family knows) I think a white-collare crime would have made for a better post.
Well now you're just teasing.
No fair.
Yeah that's right my name's Yauch!
Isn't that the defintion of 'ex-con'?
(could be wrong, never though that hard about it)
Wikipedia says "Ex-convict (or short: ex-con) is a common way of referring to a person who has been released from prison."
So...criminal past that didn't result in prison/jail might not fit the bill, but I'd still think 'excon',
So he went car shopping at a closed used car dealership and just brought along a stolen stereo? Yeah, that's pretty dumb. Not "I think I'll download child pornography on this library computer" dumb, but clearly he was up to some criminal mischief.
How long was he in jail?
So am I an ex con if I've been arrested but never sentenced to jail?
(And it was a pretty stupid alcohol offense when I was 22 for which I'm obviously not that proud of.)

wait so you married a guy who has been in jail and you don't even really know what he was in jail for?
I'm stuck on this too.
Yeah, this is where my brain is right now.
Currently Reading: Don Quixote by Miguel De Cervantes
I married him not understanding totally but thinking it had to do with stealing a car. Now I realize it is a car stereo. He doesn't admit to his part of it which does bother me. Like I said, he has not been in trouble since and doesn't drink anymore etc. I didn't really want to post this but I thought it might get through to her. He paid restitution and spent 3 months in jail. (I now know the difference between jail and prison)
My point is, plenty of people would say I overlooked too much. I don't think so. I would not have been able to overlook a violent crime and/or a crime against kids. I don't know wtf is with the italics in this post. Oh, under people who know, my therapist knows.
Uh huh. Julie, there's a woman named AirIsRunningOut on SO. I want to see the two of you discuss your menfolk together.
Gotta ask, do YOU think you overlooked to much--not from your own perspective, from an outsider perspective?
As in, if your BFF/mom/daughter came to you and told you the details you share here (you knew he spent time in prison. You didn't actually look at what for. He doesn't take responsibility for it. etc), would you tell her to run away?
Ex con comes from convict. So unless you were convicted, you aren't an ex con. YWIA!
Click me, click me!
He went to jail for stealing a car radio...and it was his first offense??
ummmm no.
