So now that every single court and law enforcement office has determined that ALL of these accusations were completely false, having NO basis in truth, and my son is now a 20 year old man out in the big world, its time to take a look at the things that I was accused of.
This is what Leif’s stepmother, Marilynn Fogarty Knutsen, wrote:
“Karen Cegalis and her boyfriend hold my son down on the floor with his pants pulled down and forceably (sic) spread his buttocks open and insert a “tail” into his rectum. This has been going on for over a year. If he does not do what they say they put him in a time out. This consists of holding him down tying him up, putting him on a desk with duck (sic) tape over his mouth. They also take pictures of this. This boyfriend is a 55 year old, unmarried man that works in a day care center in Ontario Canada and travels 4 hours down and back each (illegible) to do this. He has a studio in his fan, and plays dress up with my son each (illegible).
Karen Cegalis told Leif (illegible) they would be dressed up as princesses (?). He paints his toes and fingers with homemade nail polish and they suck it off. Wayne also wears red pants and purple lipstick. They gave him gummy worms that put him to sleep and he wakes up with various costumes on not knowing how or when he got dressed up. Sometimes they put tails in Leif’s mouth as well as rectum.
Karen also sleeps with Leif and sucks on his thumb and forces him to suck on hers.”
But I am getting ahead of myself! First they went to the court with this, which is written in Raymond Knutsen’s handwriting,
…and it was denied. So…. they went back to the court with the version above that Marilynn wrote (note the change of handwriting).
Here is the entire document:
