- How a Children’s Karate Class Was Turned Into a Crime Scene
~2012 | Karate School Fabrication and Blame Reversal
Date – needs verification. Either 2012 or 2013
– Accusation: Claim made that my son was being taught “grappling” at his local karate school. The claim was used to support a sexualized allegation by falsely equating karate training with inappropriate physical contact.
– Source: Ray and/or statements attributed to my son after coaching.
– Reality Check: I went directly to the karate school and asked whether they taught grappling to eight-year-olds.
– Verified Fact: The instructor stated unequivocally that grappling was not taught to children that young. It was reserved for older students. Teaching grappling to an eight-year-old would be untrue.
– Action Taken: I subpoenaed the karate instructor so the factual record could be established in court and the lie formally corrected.
– Outcome: The fabricated claim was disproven under oath.
– Blame Reversal: In a subsequent court proceeding, Ray claimed that my son could no longer attend the karate school and blamed me for “ruining it,” despite the fact that this consequence flowed directly from his own false accusation.
– Key Pattern: Lie created → independently disproven → truth forced into court record → consequences of the lie reassigned to me, whole situation becomes my fault.
– Aftermath: No retraction or apology followed. When the allegations were disproven by objective data, new accusations were introduced instead (which fell apart every. single. time.)
– Collateral Impact: The karate school, and a child who had done nothing wrong, were placed in an untenable position after being used as narrative scaffolding for an accusation they never consented to be part of.
