  1. I am up for awhile here where I reside, its somewhat far east of your location, however what is in common is the sustainability of our planet “by designed process control”. It was that endeavor that brought me to your county there in Indiana. And that alone. While there in an effort to relax and enjoy your town myself and another woman happened to cross paths with that weaver crud and his square headed companion one evening, he is a horrible excuse for a man.
    My advice for any woman in that kind of presence is …keep a eye on your beverage around that piece of crap.
    I really did enjoy the sense of small town America in your city, until that smallish overbearing creep pursued me in a little club near your riverfront. What a pig, and how does “that pig” continue to push some advantage of not being arrested by that type of horrid behavior?

  2. N267 Elliel, I am so sorry for your experience with an immature creep in our town. What all women who are being bothered in such a way need to do is call a police officer. Every time it happens!! Without fail !!! And at some point this rude child’s behavior will HAVE to be addressed. The other thing to remember is never and I repeat never go out alone. Always go with friends. The more the merrier and the safer. Types like Weaver will always hit on a lone woman rather than a group who can beat the crap out of him before turning him in.

  3. I think it is great that city county observer is willing to post these truly amazing resources! Albion will provide counseling services for victims of domestic violence even if they are not staying in the shelter.
    As far as Weaver is concerned… Yes, watch your drink in his presence! I speak from experience.

  4. Recently I received an official copy of the “Restraining Order Petition” between At-Large City Councilman Jonathan Weaver and one of his ex-wifes thats on file at the Vanderburgh County Clerk office. I find the Court findings concerning this petition extremely interesting.

    I originally thought that I would make this public document available to the local media. However after a second thought, I decided to let our local media do the research and report the findings of the Court concerning a “Restraining Order Petition” filed against an elected public official.

    If Courier and Press, TV Channels 25, 7. 14 and 44, and the City County Observer would like to have an official copy of this “Restraining Order Petition” they could pick one up at the Vanderburgh County Clerks Office. For your information I also understand that Mr. Weaver may have two (2) such petitions on file but the Judge sealed one of them from public view.

    Finally, in my opinion the local media are duty bond to research and make this information public!

    AFTER HEARING TESTIMONY FROM BOTH SIDES THE COURT CAN MAKE THE FOLLOWING FINDINGS:

    a. The Court could rule that Petitioner has shown, by a preponderance of the evidence, that domestic or family violence, stalking, or a sex offense has occurred sufficient to justify the issuance of this Order.

    b. The Court could rule if this order does/does not protect an intimate partner or child.

    c. The Court could determine if the Respondent represents a credible threat to the safety of the Petitioner or a member of the Petitioner’s household.

    d. The Court could determine if relief is necessary to bring about a cessation of the violence or the threat of violence.

    THE COURT COULD ORDER:

    1. The Court could enjoined the “Respondent” from threatening to commit or committing acts of domestic or family violence, stalking, or a sex offense against the Petitioner and the following designated family or household members.

    2. The Court could prohibited the “Respondent” from harassing, annoying, telephoning, contacting, or directly or indirectly communicating with the “Petitioner”.

    3. The Court could remove the “Respondent” and excluded him from the Petitioner’s residence.

    4. The Court can ordered the “Respondent” to stay away from the residence, school, and/or place of employment of the Petitioner. The Court could further ordered the “Respondent” to stay away from the following place(s) that is/are frequented by the Petitioner and/or the Petitioner’s family or household members.
