WHAT?! There's evidence of this? Where? **trying to play catch up**
I have spent 11 years fighting for this and that with my ex and no attorney ever told me to "wait" for anything we filed papers immediately and fought for my daughter......
She was ok enough to go to the gym and post on FB, but not ok enough to fight for her daughter......I'm not believing it.
Can/would Houze file any papers regarding the divorce and RO?
If he is admitted to practice law in Oregon, he can file any papers he wants -- he is not limited to the practice of criminal law.
Whether he will or not is anybody's guess.
All doctors can practice medicine, but would you see your dermatologist for your broken leg? Houze specializes in criminal defense. Most lawyers do not like to venture into legal territory they are not well familiar with.

This is a good article but it is not EVIDENCE that she bribed the Gardner/Landscaper into a murder for hire deal.
It does say that LE told her husband and his Ex about this and they all distanced themselves from her.
But it is not proof.......It sounds like they had to disclose what they discovered for safety reasons.
By the way, I don't think it looks good that we haven't heard from her or her lawyer about her child being taken from her. My response would have been along the lines of, "There has been a horrible mistake or misunderstanding! I would never hurt any child, and I need to see my daughter now!" I would be on TV or writing letters, or talking to everybody, and have my lawyer release a statement. If I wasn't guilty of anything, why would my lawyer advise me against that?
I agree. Most times, when a restraining order is issued (like, in this case) the judge will set a hearing for it a few weeks later (as long as no emergency hearings were filed) at which time things like the whether or not she can see her daughter (because the restraining order protects the child as well, in this case). If Terri really wants her daughter back, wants any kind of visitation, etc. her attorney just needs to file an emergency custody hearing (or, just a regular custody hearing) which I'm imagining they would do at the hearing regarding the restraining order.
So, to make a long/complicated story short..basically, I'd imagine that her attorney is waiting until the restraining order hearing to file a custody motion.
I understand the procedure, I don't understand TH just sitting back and accepting it. No mother I know would just say, "You want my daughter, ok you can have her." It just doesn't make sense. She was ok enough to go to the gym and post on FB, but not ok enough to fight for her daughter......I'm not believing it.
Because she knows she's screwed.
I think the fact she hired a criminal defense attorney not a family law attorney clearly shows how she sees her risks and priorities. I believe she sees her biggest threat right now as being sent to jail, so she's not worrying about divorce\custody issues at present.
I am sure her biggest threat is being arrested, that's one of the reasons I think she would be desperate to spend any amount of time with her daughter and until she is found guilty of something she would get AT LEAST supervised visits with her daughter if she fought for them. I find it hard to believe this stay at home mom who has been raising her stepson and taking care of her daughter up until now is just saying, "oh well". Something about this is fishy in my opinion.
