Your Voice Matters!

Assemblyman Troy Singleton stepped forward to introduce legislation that will prevent “Sexual Assault by Fraud” throughout the state of New Jersey! The bill is currently sitting with the Legislative Judicial Committee who can “kill the bill” or move it on it’s way toward recognition and acceptance.

When Mischele Lewis first consulted me regarding her case against William Allen Jordan. I researched the laws in her state. The language in NJ on “Aggravated Sexual Assault” seemed to be the closest fit for the crime, but the Prosecutor charged “Sexual Assault by Coercion.” instead. The jury failed to indict because, indeed, no coercion had taken place.
The Jordan case underscores the importance of creating very clear, directed language in the law in order to prosecute offenders who con victims for sex. Countless people are defrauded this way all the time! This bill will raise society’s awareness and make that stop!
Two more cases were recently brought to my attention in NJ. A myriad of others came forward from other states. Only the penal code of Alabama and Tennessee are clear on this heinous crime.
Please make your voice heard!
It only takes half of a second to sign the Change.org petition that tells Legislators in NJ how important this issue is to you! The head of the Judicial Committee receives notice of all signatures. You do not have to be a NJ resident to sign. Please add your voice to this important cause!
Today, New Jersey. Tomorrow the world. You can help raise awareness one signature at a time!
And please help spread the word!
I am going to do as you suggest…I filled out the form, if you didn’t get it, you can contact me through the blog I mentioned before. All of the email goes to me. I’m very anxious to get a chance to connect with you!
I have four women who have been raped by fraud in NJ. I have just found out about this law via Mischele’s blog and I am looking to make a plan on how to go after this guy. He is still loose and we have tried to go to various agencies and they are all passing the buck. We all live in four different states but as it turns out, we have all had sex with him in NJ, so this may be our way to be able to do something. I have just emailed Mr Singleton via the NJ website. If you could offer further help, please contact me. Our blog about our perp is:

Leah,
I’m so sorry to hear of your troubles. It’s amazing that you all found each other and can swap notes as well as lend each other support.
In addition to my efforts that enlightened Mischele Lewis about the crime of rape by fraud….. she read my book, spoke to me at great length, and I accompanied her to the police to file her statement, I’m doing everything possible to support this law and create legislation in additional states. All of you should register your information on the 50 Brave Women campaign on this blog (not publicly released), and submit the factual information about the offender on the CAD Suspects database on this blog.
I’m currently involved in a project that’s a documentary. Could you please get in touch with me so we can discuss this further. To do so, please fill in the comment form at the bottom of the Stop Rape by Fraud page of this blog. That information is also not posted publicly. It goes directly to my email box.
And by all means, all four of you, and your supporters, should sign the petition that this page will connect you to.
Protecting people from offenders like Tom is exactly what my efforts are all about. Your story can help raise awareness!
Thanks for sharing it.
Joyce
