There should be a better way to authenticate this type of evidence, particularly since it is used so much as a primary means of communication between some people. Text messaging provides the psychological and emotional abuser with a shield that allows for an incredible amount of harm via this electronic means. Please remember there is a real person on the other end of these typewritten words! Text messages are very difficult to have admitted into evidence.

He discovered it and she removed it. He was advising me that he wanted to return home and why. Later during the custody battle, she used these out of order and context, shared them with others and I feel she was in violation of Ohio law for interception of electronic messages. She claimed her intent was to protect the kids in a new environment, but I think her use of them demonstrats otherwise. The law shoulp provide protection and a reasonable expectation of privacy for each parent. My ex installed a program to moniter emails between my son and I while I was deployed to Iraq.
