RHODES AND ABIGAIL ROSE § -

LYNN RHODES §

CHILDREN § HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS

AFFIDAVIT CONCERNING MODIFICATION
OF CUSTODY, POSSESSION AND ACCESS

MEGGEN RH()DES. appeared in person before me today and stated on oath:

"l\/ly name is MEGGEN RHODES. l am at least eighteen years of age, and I am fully
competent to make this affidavit The facts stated in this affidavit are within my personal
knowledge and are true and correct

l am requesting a modification of the custody, possession and access in the interest of
William David Bryant Rhodes, Caitlyn Reba Esther Rhodes, and Abigail Rose Lynn Rhodes. l
believe it is in their best interest to terminate the visitation, possession and access rights of their
father, William Mark Rhodes, for a minimum period of 5 years due to his behavior that led to a
criminal conviction in the 248th Harris County Criminal Court.

William Mark Rhodes was arrested and charged with Z"d degree felony Burglary of a
Habitation With Intent To Commit Assault on April 15, 2010. During the late night hours of
April l5, 20](), he became intoxicated, drove to the street of my residence_. parked his vehicle in
the driveway of an unoccupied house, removed his shoes, and walked down the street to my
residence He entered my house with a key he obtained from our son, William David Bryant
Rhodes, against my wishes He then came in my bedroom and, at approximately l l:30 pm, held
a knife resembling a machete to my neck as if to slit my throat. I woke up and was able to get out
from underneath the knife. He then proceeded to tell me that l had taken away everything from
him and he had nothing to live for. He then forced me to put my hand on the handle of the knife
and pressed the tip against his chest as if to stab himself \N'hen l pulled my hand away after a
struggle, he grabbed my wrist and threatened to break my ann if I didn’t put my hand back on
the knife. I struggled, but he put my hand back on the handle of the knife and pointed it to his
throat and applied pressure, trying to put the knife through his throat. l struggled and was able
get away from him with possession of the weapon. l ran outside and dialed 911 and threw the
knife in the bushes. He followed me outside and took the phone away from me. He told the
dispatcher not to send the police and hung up. When they called back several times, he

EXH|B|T A

threatened to hurt me if l answered the phone. I was able to answer once and communicate that l
needed help. When the police arrived, he was arrested.

From the initial date of separation on April 5, 2009, through the date of the attack,
William Mark Rhodes had repeatedly obtained entry to my home against my wishes by
convincing our son to give him keys. l had the locks changed a total of 4 times from April 5,
2009 through April 15, 2010 to try to prevent him from entering my home. He admitted to
stalking me during this time period. He drove by my house repeatedly during the late night hours
to check and see if anyone besides myself was there. During the days in the week immediately
following the initial separation, I woke up to find Mr. Rhodes standing over my bed, touching
my hair or just walking around my house. He felt he had the right to enter my home at any time
he wished because the children lived there. He initially refused to have visitation with the
children unless it took place inside of my home. l agreed at that point, as l felt it would be better
for me to deal with Mr. Rhodes being in my home than for my children to be without their father.
This occurred from April 2009 through November 2009. During these visitation periods, Mr.
Rhodes fed the children food that I had purchased He also would drink as much alcohol as
possible that was in my home. I repeatedly carrie home and found empty wine and liquor bottles
that had been full when I left the home. Any wine bottles that he was unable to or chose not to
finish had mucus in them, as if Mr. Rhodes had coughed up mucus and spit it into the bottle.

Several weeks after the separation, Mr. Rhodes arrived at my residence intoxicated and
asked to talk to me. I told him l would speak to him outside. He was angry at me and we had an
argument I told him he needed to leave the property He refused. l went inside to call the police.
He forced his way in when llI tried to shut the door, and there was a'physical altercation. He
forcefully took away my cell phone and broke it to prevent me from calling the police. He then
took away the home phone after a struggle and threw it against the wall and broke it and ripped
the base of the phone out of the wall. He then fled the residence When the police arrived later, l
explained what had happened. They found him in the detached garage of my residence holding a
knife to his arm as if he was going to cut his wrists. The only charges the police said l could
press against him was interfering with a call to 91 l. l chose not to press charges, as I was afraid
he would become even more angry and come back and hurt me. During that night, I had friends
come and stay with me. Mr. Rhodes came back to the house two more times with police, saying I
was violating the temporary orders currently in place for our pending divorce. When the police
told him to leave and not come back, he went to his mother’s house (where he lived) and began
making harassing phone calls to me. l had the police come back to the house and, while they
were there, he made another phone call, and they told him to stop calling.

During September of 2009, l noticed certain items were missing out of my horne and
garage, including all of my jewelry, tools, and my violin. Every time something went missing,
Mr. Rhodes called me and harassed me saying that someone l was involved with had stolen the

Aj]idavit of Meggen Rhodes Page 2 of 6

items. l was involved with no one during this time period. l was informed by Mr. Rhodes’ sister
that valuable items had gone missing from his mother’s home as well. Mr. Rhodes was not
working and had no source of income during this time period. I strongly suspect that Mr. Rhodes
stole all of these items and sold them.

In November 2009, I told Mr. Rhodes that he could no longer have access to my home
for visitation purposes and that he was not to be on the property if l wasn’t there. On December
14, 2009, I was at work and noticed that all of the emails in my Yahoo account had been deleted.
Most emails were pertaining to the divorce proceedings as well as harassing text messages he
had sent me that I had emailed to myself. I called the police. They found Mr. Rhodes in the
garage at my house. The doors to the house were locked. When l arrived, I was told that l could
not press charges, since there were no signs of forced entry and because l had previously allowed
him on the property. l told Mr. Rhodes, and the police told him, not to come on the property
anymore and they issued a criminal trespass warning

On December 31, 2009, Mr. Rhodes created an email address that was very similar to
mine and sent an email to two of my friends harassing them and slandering me. During the late
night hours, he repeatedly called me asking for forgiveness for everything he had done.

In March 20l0, my best friend spent the night at my home so that l could attend a funeral
the following morning. When l woke up in the moming,. I went outside and found that all four of
her tires had been slashed. I had to pay to have them replaced. Mr. Rhodes had repeatedly made
threats indicating that if l had anyone at my home overnight when the children were present that
he would cause trouble. My girlfriend had recently purchased a new car that Mr. Rhodes would
not have recognized A report was filed with the police, but we were unable to prove that Mr.
Rhodes had slashed the tires.

Also during March 2010, Mr. Rhodes began harassing and threatening coworkers at my
place of employment A police report was filed when Mr. Rhodes left a slanderous note in the
deli of the building where my office was.

There were many instances of harassment and stalking during the time period from April

. 5, 2009 through April 15, 20]0, although I did not report every single instance to the police, as it

took place on almost a daily basis. l was in absolute fear for my safety and the safety of my

children all the time. The only relief came when he was finally arrested and held in Harris
County Jail.

Also, during this time period, Mr. Rhodes was very inconsistent with his visitation with
the children. He would cancel visitation or pick them up late without notice. He refused#to keep
them overnight many weekends that he had visitation. He also refused to exercise holiday and
extended visitation periods during the summer of 2009, Christmas 2009, and spring break 201 0.

Ajjidavit of Meggen Rhodes Page 3 of 6

One instance took place on Thanksgiving weekend 2009. l brought the children horne early per
his request from an out of town trip so he could pick them up the Friday after Thanksgiving. l
prepared the children and we waited late into the evening Mr. Rhodes called me at
approximately 9:30 pm and informed me he was just leaving the Renaissance Festival in
Plantersville, Texas and would not pick up the children until the following morning lt sounded
to me like he was intoxicated He also repeatedly refused to take the children to their
extracurricular events during his visitation periods. Caitlyn and Abigail were supposed to
perform in a parade in December 2009, which Mr. Rhodes had agreed to take them to. l had
purchased costumes, etc. for this performance He called at the time they were required to be at
the parade and refused to take them, preventing me the opportunity to take them myself He
provided a cell phone to our son for the purpose of having my whereabouts and activities
reported back to him.

During the entire time period before Mr. Rhodes was arrested, he did not hold a job for
more than a few weeks at a time. He was always behind on child support payments. During
March 2010, he told me that he “had no obligation” to help support his children because I was
the one that filed for divorce (which was finalized in August 2009). He stated that he didn’t care
what the court said. Mr. Rhodes repeatedly asked me to reduce the amount of child support
ordered, and told me he would “stay out of my life” if I did, but if l didn’t he threatened to
continue harassing and stalking me.

I was made aware of two incidents in particular that concerned me greatly regarding the
children. Caitlyn and Abigail told me that one moming, while at their grandmother’s home, Mr.
Rhodes and my son drove away, leaving them standing in the driveway, and then came back
laughing because they thought it was funny to make the girls think they had left them. Another
incident occurred when Mr. Rhodes took the children to the home of his first wife and his other
children to visit. Abigail did not exit the car fast enough and was locked in and left inside for
several minutes. l was also informed that our son, who was 12 years old at the time, was “left in
charge” while they were at visitation at the home of their ill grandmother.

During the spring 2010, I was planning a vacation with the children to Jamaica and
needed Mr. Rhodes’ consent to obtain their passports. Mr. Rhodes refused, and l had to file a
motion with the court to modify the divorce decree to include a passport provision. We were
ordered to mediation, as he refused to sign the modification On April 12, 2010, myself and my
attorney arrived at mediation. Mr. Rhodes had previously told me that he would not appear,
although he did end up appearing While in a room with the mediator, Mr. Rhodes became
emotional and apologized for “everything he had ever done” to me. He promised to treat me
“with the dignity and respect” that I “deserved” from then on. He confessed at this time to having
hired a former military guy to track me and my accounts, and provided all of my personal
information to this person, including my SSN, bank accounts, home and work addresses, etc. He

Aj]'idavit of Meggen Rhodes Page 4 of 6

promised at this time to have the person to whom he had given all of my personal information
destroy the infonnation. He admitted in front of the mediator that he had used this information to
find out things about me. He also admitted to having installed spyware on my home computer in
order to obtain some of this information Three days later, he was arrested on my front lawn for
the burglary and assault charge.

l obtained a protective order against Mr. Rhodes in the interest of myself and my children
in August 2010. Mr. Rhodes elected not to appear at the hearing, and the Protective Order was
granted by default

Mr. Rhodes was subsequently placed on probation on November 22, 2010, with many
requirements, including inpatient mental and substance abuse treatment He is required to

with the terms of this probation.

I am still in fear for my life. In the past, Mr. Rhodes has used any means possible to
harass, threaten, stalk, and hurt me. lt is my fear that if the terms of the custody, possession, and

prison for his mental health problems because he just doesn’t “like to put things in” his body. He
was unable to give the judge a valid reason why he refused the medication that was prescribed to

l have been repeatedly told by criminal court judges that family court rulings supersede
criminal court rulings and that, if he so chooses, Mr. Rhodes can choose to enforce his visitation
rights and can attend school events, etc., even though there is a 5 year no contact order in place. I
strongly believe that if the custody, possession and access order is not modified prior to Mr.
Rhodes’ release from inpatient treatment, that he will do everything in his power to enforce the
existing order and cause harm to myself and my children. Mr. Rhodes has written two letters to

Affl`a'avit of Meggen Rhodes Page 5 of 6

my children since being arrested almost a year ago. My children have not wanted to write back,
even though l told them they could.

Due to the probation, l am not allowed to have any information on Mr. Rhodes"
whereabouts This makes it impossible for me to know when he will be released, and where he is
living and/or working 1 am in fear for my life and the lives of my children every single day. lt is
absolutely imperative that the order be modified to protect our safety and allow us to live a
normal life without the harassment, threats and violent behavior of William Mark Rhodes.”

but never messages directly from him.

Q Okay. Tell me about this past father' s day,
right. What happened?

A , Yes. He and I went to Galveston, my dad and
I, and before that trip Hannah and David and myself went
out to do something and I asked David would you like to
record a message on my camera, like, saying just happy
father' s day and I didn' t understand that that was not
okay. And so I recorded the message and then on the
trip before I showed it to him, I said, well, you know,
I have a present for you, David said happy father's day
for you. I got it and my dad said, no, no, no. I
cannot see that. And so I didn't show it to him. I
erased it off of my camera, but he made known not to
view the message, so.

Q So, is your dad pretty cognizant of the
Court's order and he avoids all contact, to the best of
your knowledge?

A Yes.

Q Okay.

MR. PATEL: I think that's it, Your
Honor.
