  • Texas Man Takes Legal Action Against Former Girlfriend Who Traveled To Colorado For Abortion

    Texas Man Takes Legal Action Against Former Girlfriend Who Traveled To Colorado For Abortion

    A woman from Texas who fled the state to have an abortion is facing legal threats from her ex-boyfriend, Collin Davis. He, along with his anti-abortion attorney, intends to take legal action against her and anyone who assisted her. The woman proceeded with her abortion in Colorado despite the threats, per The Independent

    The Center for Reproductive Rights staff attorney Molly Duane informed the New York Post that

    “People need to understand that it is not a crime to leave Texas or any other state in the country for an abortion.” 

    Despite the woman already having the abortion, Mr. Davis and his attorney continue to pursue legal action against her and those they believe were involved. They argue that those who assisted in the abortion are the ones who violated Texas’ strict abortion laws, which allow lawsuits against anyone who helps or

    “abets”

    an

    “illegal abortion,”

    even if the woman cannot be sued.

    While it is legal to travel across state lines for an abortion, Davis and his lawyer, Jonathan Mitchell, face a challenge. District attorneys admit that enforcing abortion laws can be challenging, as per The Post.

    Texas Massage Parlor Shuts Down As City Cracks Down On Prostitution, Reports Say

    A massage parlor in Plano, Texas has been shut down following allegations that it operated as a front for prostitution, as reported by Fox News. The closure comes after the city launched an investigation into the Tennyson Wellness Center on Preston Road and its owner, Diana Zhang, in response to civil claims. 

    Numerous complaints were made by citizens regarding inappropriate behavior by massage therapists at the center, including unwanted touching and solicitation of sexual services in exchange for money. Plano has taken legal action by filing a petition for pre-suit discovery in Collin County court, aiming to uncover evidence and potentially pursue legal action against those involved in illegal activities, including owners, landlords, employees, and customers.

    “identify and hopefully end sex crimes committed at massage establishments.”

    “We expect that legal actions will be taken against additional massage establishments in the Plano area in the near future,”

  • Woman Outraged After Squatters Sold Her Belongings At Yard Sale and Destroyed Her Home

    Woman Outraged After Squatters Sold Her Belongings At Yard Sale and Destroyed Her Home

    While Terri Boyette was away taking care of her ill mother, squatters occupied her Texas home and reportedly transformed it into a drug hub. They even sold her belongings. Despite reporting the incident to the police, they claimed their hands were tied and they couldn’t help, reports the New York Post. Reports say that she claimed to have paid workers to fix her home but once she left, a painter broke into the house and destroyed it. 

    Luckily, after a six-month struggle, Boyette finally regained possession of her home. Unfortunately, her belongings were either destroyed or sold. Boyette also discovered that the squatter had been renting out her belongings.

    Boyette instructed the workers to vacate the premises before her departure to Florida. However, the squatter unlawfully entered and refused to leave. Upon being informed by a friend, Boyette contacted the police to report the break-in. Unfortunately, she was informed that she would have to go through the eviction process since the squatter had been present for over ten days. Boyette then enlisted the help of an attorney to initiate the eviction proceedings, which ended up lasting for several months.

    Boyette explained,

    “We had to send the thirty-day notice, so he gets the thirty-day notice that he’s going to be removed. And he got another thirty-day notice that had to expire… After I sent those, I got a court date in December and then when I went before the judge, [the squatter] didn’t show up of course, so she granted the eviction.” 

    The woman continued,

    “She extended the appeal to January because she didn’t want anyone to be homeless over the holidays, and I’m like — I’m homeless over the holidays.” 

    The squatter was given his last eviction notice on Feb. 6 and was officially evicted on March 20. Boyette mentioned that the squatter has made attempts to return. The Mesquite Police Department stated that squatting a home in Texas is a complex process, as squatters can claim adverse possession.
