## Statement

From the beginning of this case the witness words have been misrepresented. From the victim witness advocate Tina Simmons, her supervisor Tyler St Laurence , the original prosecutor from the district court case Megan tessier, and the current prosecutor Dana Parsons. Both prosecutors have never spoken with the alleged victim and on multiple hearing misquoted her and the statements obtained by the officers. When attorney parsons took over the case and indicted it to superior she left out that the alleged victim invoked her fifth amendment right. With holding crucial information needed to make a no bias determination. In the beginning of all this they kept hinting to the alleged victim about rape in which she said any sex had was consensual. So they ultimately dropped it. In the indictment kidnapping was added to the charges but at no time was the alleged victim questioned about feeling kidnapped or forced to stay there. Mr LaPorte has all documents and evidence needed.
