I hope she nails every one of them to the wall and I hope she takes every penny they ever hope to have. Not only for what they put her through, but for what they put their own children through in their efforts to "get Tonya."

Good for Tonya for working so diligently and taking legal action to restore her tarnished reputation. What I don't like is that the Henke children are still in the middle of all this. I know lots of kids go thru bitter custody battles and parental discord but it still doesn't make it right. Yet and still, I would do the same thing if I were in Tonya's shoes.
The financial devastation she has suffered due to this 'witch hunt' was unnecessary in the first place.

I have noticed the 'Sunshine lady' (sorry don't know her name) has suddenly been noticably absent from giving interviews since her recorded assault on Tonya's P.I. was publicized.

i hope this settles the issue once and for all, seriously.

if he honestly believes he molested they're daughter, why would he agree to a custody agreement with her? he would fight to the death to prevent her ever seeing her kids again.

Tonya and her lawyer are on The View today.

It's great to see so much vindication coming her way. This poor woman has been through a hell that most of us can't even imagine. I have been so angry over what was done to her. I hope good things keep flowing her way.

Craft lays out conspiracy in amended civil complaint

http://www.wrcbtv.com/Global/story.asp?S=12847866

RINGGOLD (WRCB) – The individuals and agencies involved in the criminal prosecution of Tonya Craft "deliberately, intentionally and with reckless disregard ignored the constitutional and civil rights" of the former kindergarten teacher in a conspiracy to frame her for crimes she did not commit. That's the premise behind the $25 million dollar civil suit filed by Craft in the US District Court of North Georgia.
More at link.....

If anyone reading here still has doubts about Tonya's innocence, please read the whole article. It would be hard for me to have doubts after reading this. I hope she is truly vindicated and these people have to pay for using our justice system to ruin her life.

Wow. Thanks for posting this. I hope her accusers pay for what they have done. It's terrible.

It appears Tonya's custody battle is going to be postponed for some time, til' September. She only sees them sporadically is what I heard, and for very short time periods. It's such a shame what these false allegations did. I doubt she will reclaim any significant custodial rights anytime soon because the kids have been so poisoned against her that they probably would be traumatized to be in her care. Then again, I have seen cases where parental alienation is grounds to take custody from the alienating parent. We'll see. Poor Tonya and poor kids. http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/2010/jul/15/tonya-craft-custody-battle-postponed/?local

73-Page Suit Gives More Details Than Original 52-Page Filing
by Dennis Norwood
posted July 21, 2010

Attorneys for Tonya Craft, who was absolved of all charges of child molestation in a highly-publicized trial at Ringgold, on Wednesday filed an amended 73-page lawsuit against her accusers in Federal Court in Rome, Ga.

[Tsunami]

An attorney for two of the defendants sued by Tonya Craft in Federal Court says her amended $25 million lawsuit still is not specific enough. Cristina Correia, assistant Georgia state attorney general, said the amended complaint fails to comply with the instructions of Judge Harold Murphy. Judge Murphy, of Rome, Ga., on July 7 had given Craft attorneys two weeks in which to provide more specifics relating to her accusations. The judge said he then would rule on motions by the defendants to be dismissed from the case. Ms. ...

If I am understanding it correctly, Attorney Cristina Correia represents Greenhouse Advocacy Center and Suzi Thorne. And, it is she that says the amended complaint fails to comply with Judge Harold Murphy's instructions.

It doesn't mean that the Judge thinks that, does it? Am I missing something?

 

[Belinda]

Of course the defendants attorney is going to say there is a problem with the complaint. I will await the judge's decision on whether the complaint is properly complete. Thanks for the link, Tsunami. I hope the judge will allow the case to move forward. Tonya deserves justice for what was done to her.

Has anything been done about the Step -Mother & her bathing/shaving activities with Tonya's daughter? Has CPS investigated that? That to me seems to be the only evidence of abuse presented at trial and Id hope it'd be pursued!

I'd almost bet that this little tidbit is coming up in the custody trial. I truly don't know how Tonya kept from jerking this woman up by her hair! Tonya has shown that it is possible to go through hell and show grace and composure through it all. My hat is off to her!
