It looks like things with my husband's crazy behavior is finally going to calm down. Over the weekend he learned a darn good lesson why it is important to be mindful of the way people perceive you and he is finally realizing that it is not in his best interests for everyone to think he is a no goodnick. He just got super insanely lucky that teenagers are dumb and are crappy lairs.
It turned out my 18 year old niece has/had an EXTREMELY unhealthy obsession with my husband. Her mother, my sister in law, discovered a tattoo she apparently had on the inside of her thigh. It was a Harp of Aaron (my niece is of Irish heritage) superimposed on the Nationalist Chinese white sun emblem. This was concerning/problematic because 1) tattoos are sort of frowned upon in my extended family and more seriously 2)my husband has the same white sun emblem tattooed onto his right shoulder. Seeing as how my nieces tattoo was in a rather intimate place, and the context of the imagery is rather intimate too and coupled with the fact that my sister in law is already not happy with the influence my husband has had on her children this lead to a rather heated family discussion.
The discovery of the tattoo led my sister in law to scrutinize every one of my niece's social media posts, her diaries, and pretty much all her "art" and angsty teenage "poetry". Apparently my niece had written volumes of accounts of sexual leaisions she had had with my husband beginning from when she was 14. In addition she mused in extent about the day my husband leaves "my fat ass" and runs away with her.
Naturally my sister in law was taken aback by the discovery and took immediate action. My husband and I found out about this at 10 pm on Friday when my sister in law arrived at our home with a box of journals and the police. This was an extremely uncomfortable and scary situation as neither of us had any idea what was going on, and due to the previous interactions my husband had had with local law enforcement, the deputies were not exactly "kind" to us.
My husband was just super lucky that we were able to immediately refute some of the most outlandish scenarios due the fact that dates and times made certain alleged leaisions impossible. She documented a three month period where she would skip school in order to spend time with my husband but that period wasin the middle of a 6 month stint when my husband and I were living in the UAE for his job. In another "musing" she reminisced about how she loved my husband's truck because that's where she was deflowered at the tender age of 14. In this entry she reminisced about how my husband offered her a ride in his brand new truck and how she remembered how it smelt and how the new fabric felt on her skin, blah blah blah. The police officer read this disgusting drivel and it was so incredibly embarrassing. That is when my husband pointed out that his truck is 1) a 2010 there by making him 17 and her 11 when it was "brand new"
2)he bought the truck second hand while he was co-oping in California when he was 19 and didn't come back to Texas until he was 20, therefore the was no way my niece would have even rode in that vehicle when it was new or even new to my husband.
Anyways, after the police and my sister in law left we had a long talk about the importance of perceptions. And it seems he understands how this situation, regardless of the fact that he is completely innocent could have been much worse and that he would most likely not have received the benefit of the doubt due to his behavior.
