please identify the actual f✘cking issue.
this site contains my firsthand experiences, records, legal commentary, and opinions about what i have lived through.
✶you do not owe anyone a false account that makes them look better.
accuracy matters. privacy matters. your voice matters, too.
if you have a factual correction, bring it.
if your objection is that a woman you would prefer silent has learned to cite her sources:
yeah. that part is deliberate.
not legal advice, just legally sh*t.
✶ protected speech / start with the actual rights.
survivors retain the same constitutional speech protections as everyone else. the first amendment and article ii, § 10 of the colorado constitution protect freedom of expression.
colorado recognizes substantial truth as a defense to defamation. the substance or gist must be true; immaterial imperfections do not necessarily defeat that defense. genuine opinion and rhetorical hyperbole also receive protection when they do not reasonably convey false factual assertions. see colorado civil jury instructions, chapter 22, introductory note ¶ 7 and instruction 22:16.
precision is not an apology.
i distinguish facts, allegations, findings, and commentary because those distinctions protect the account. my publication standard includes accuracy, context, privacy, and compliance with applicable court orders and confidentiality obligations.
i can check the citation and still ask what the actual f✘ck.
✶ survivor disclosure / yes, all of this costs something.
i’m sam. single mom. law student. domestic violence survivor. handling legal work and keeping a household functioning.
unfortunately, all at once.
i have cleaned houses to survive, attended class without adequate childcare, and gone without textbooks because i could not afford them. remaining enrolled has required considerably more than studying.
the financial hardship is real. the profanity is discretionary.
i take responsibility for what i publish. i also get to describe what this has cost me.
✶ the restraining order / kindly read the operative provisions.
my new jersey final restraining order was entered on january 15, 2025, and amended on february 5, 2025. the amended order was registered in boulder county, colorado, on april 30, 2026.
the amended order records the court’s finding that the defendant committed an act of domestic violence.
judicial finding. please update the talking points.
the order prohibits the restrained defendant from contacting me; making or causing anyone else to make harassing communications to me; and stalking, following, or threatening to harm, stalk, or follow me.
the operative order and any subsequent court modifications control. the end of a separate criminal case does not, by itself, dissolve this civil order.
federal and colorado law provide for enforcement of qualifying out-of-state protection orders. federal law does not require prior registration as a condition of enforcement. see 18 u.s.c. § 2265 and c.r.s. § 13-14-110.
your disagreement does not modify the order.
nothing on this site—including the invitation to submit corrections—authorizes contact prohibited by a court order. use only lawful channels consistent with the applicable restrictions.
✶ binding spiritual acceptance, lol
✶ online monitoring, harassment & suspected stalking.
i have documented repeated online monitoring and unwanted contact, and reported harassment and suspected stalking. these are ongoing safety concerns in the context of domestic violence and an existing restraining order.
i preserve the sequence: dates, communications, account activity, relevant third-party involvement, and evidence connecting conduct to particular people. where identity or coordination remains unproven, i say so.
“it was online” describes where it happened. it does not resolve whether it was lawful.
colorado’s stalking statute addresses specified patterns of repeated conduct, including certain communications, surveillance, and conduct carried out indirectly through others. criminal harassment and protection-order violations are separate offenses with their own requirements. the conduct, context, evidence, and applicable legal elements determine what can be established. see c.r.s. §§ 18-3-602, 18-9-111, and 18-6-803.5.
my fro expressly addresses the restrained defendant causing someone else to make harassing communications to me.
“someone else sent it” does not answer whether the restrained person caused it.
that connection requires evidence. a public-page view alone does not establish stalking, and an unidentified account does not establish who operates it.
i report suspected violations through lawful channels and preserve supporting records. the order binds the restrained defendant; other people’s legal responsibility depends on their own conduct and applicable law.
i am documenting a safety concern. your approval is not a filing requirement.
constitutional speech protections remain applicable, including the limits on criminalizing offensive online speech recognized in people v. moreno, 2022 co 15, and the mental-state requirement for true-threat prosecutions in counterman v. colorado, 600 u.s. 66 (2023).
✶ facts, allegations & your preferred version of events.
a motion is a request. a proposed order is a proposal. a filed allegation is not automatically a judicial finding.
filed ≠ granted.
alleged ≠ adjudicated.
personally offended ≠ factually disproven.
excerpts should preserve meaning and relevant context. pending matters can change. a ruling establishes what it actually decides.
if i do not know something, i will say so.
the uncertainty gets disclosed. the attitude is complimentary.
✶ corrections / identify the actual f✘cking issue.
send the page, exact statement, alleged error, and supporting material. identify privacy concerns specifically, too. use channels permitted by applicable court orders.
i will review substantive concerns in good faith and correct factual errors. material corrections should be clearly identified.
“the date is wrong; here is the record.”
useful. thank you.
“i dislike the implications.”
understood. which fact is incorrect?
a legal demand should identify the challenged material and the legal basis for the requested action.
the letterhead has been observed. please proceed to the substance.
✶ colorado anti-slapp / protected speech has remedies.
colorado’s anti-slapp statute provides a special dismissal procedure for certain claims arising from protected speech or petitioning connected with public issues. when the statute applies, a defendant who prevails on that motion generally receives attorney fees and costs, subject to exceptions. a frivolous or delay-only motion can also result in fees against the moving party. see c.r.s. § 13-20-1101.
i reserve the right to seek available protections and remedies where the requirements are met.
a demand letter states someone’s position. it is not a court order. legal process and deadlines deserve attention; a forceful tone does not establish that a demand is valid.
“take it down” is a demand. the legal basis is still due.
✶ for survivors / tell it carefully. it is still yours.
you do not need a criminal conviction before you have speech rights. you can describe your firsthand experience while distinguishing it from what a court has decided.
you also do not owe the public your entire evidence file.
if you choose to speak:
say what you know. distinguish experience, records, information from others, and inference.
keep the originals. preserve full messages, files, dates, and context. publish from copies.
protect private information. redact children’s identities, addresses, routines, account numbers, and unrelated sensitive details.
check actual restrictions. identify the specific court order, confidentiality obligation, or protected material at issue. get focused help where its meaning is unclear.
choose the timing and audience. public posting, private reporting, and waiting are different options. assess your safety and circumstances.
a redaction is not a retraction. privacy does not make your account less real.
no wording can guarantee freedom from a lawsuit or retaliation. these practices help you preserve evidence and speak with greater care.
speaking is a choice. silence is not a debt you owe the person you say harmed you.
✶ my mental health (lol) / please stay within your qualifications.
i have been frustrated. exhausted. overwhelmed. sarcastic as f✘ck.
i have also had a child to raise and work to finish.
an unsolicited assessment of my personality does not explain a contradictory email or correct a date.
“crazy” is a characterization. where is the factual rebuttal?
deadass. identify the error.
i am responsible for accuracy. i am not undertaking to make survival look cute, quiet, or convenient.
✶ boundaries / do not create additional paperwork.
do not contact, threaten, expose, or harass people on my behalf. no doxxing, coordinated reporting, or contacting their employers, families, or schools for me.
this does not discourage good-faith reporting through proper channels.
please flag exposed private information so i can review it. do not amplify it or attempt to reverse a redaction.
discuss the adult conduct. leave the children out of it.
support is appreciated. unsolicited participation in my litigation is not.
i have enough f✘cking paperwork.
✶ not your attorney / enrollment remains enrollment.
i am a law student, not a licensed attorney. this site provides personal commentary and general information, not individualized legal advice or representation.
reading it or messaging me does not create an attorney-client relationship. do not send confidential legal materials expecting attorney-client privilege.
enrollment is not licensure. the debt, however, is extremely f✘cking real.
✶ the remaining actual terms.
comments: if enabled, contributors speak for themselves. i may moderate private information, threats, spam, or unsupported accusations. section 230 provides certain protections for qualifying third-party content; its conditions and exceptions apply. it does not provide blanket immunity for my own content. see 47 u.s.c. § 230.
copyright: © 2026 samantha lowe, for copyrightable original material i own. third-party rights remain with their owners. lawful exceptions, including fair use, apply. see 17 u.s.c. § 107. preserve attribution, redactions, and context when sharing.
outside links: provided for context. i do not control external sites or endorse every statement on them.
editing and artwork: ai may assist with editing or design. generated artwork is not documentary evidence. quotations and exhibits must remain faithful to their sources.
updates: these editorial policies may change. this page does not impose a waiver, indemnity obligation, or exclusive court venue merely because you scrolled. applicable law and court orders control.
you have not retained me.
you have not signed anything.
the dog has no contractual obligations.
✶ final notice / objections should contain information.
if i am wrong, show me.
if a restriction applies, identify it.
if you simply wish i had said less:
yeah. i gathered.
my story. my responsibility. my f✘cking voice.
accuracy required. deference unavailable. ✶
