Court Case Of Derrick Guide

448 Words2 Pages

Derrick Guide is a luxury realtor who's been suspected of using his business as a front for organized crime. Most recently, he was charged with attempted murder. He was pardoned from prison after saving the warden from a violent inmate. All of his former wives accused him of abuse. Derrick has an infant daughter, Isabelle, with fellow realtor Caroline Cameron, who's also been investigated for underground criminal activity. She served a brief prison sentence for forgery. Derrick and Caroline aren't a couple anymore and are in a custody battle over Isabelle. The case has intensified, as their respective adult children from previous relationships have petitioned for Isabelle. William is Derrick's adopted son, and Caroline's former lover. He …show more content…

Derrick is a thug and wife-beater, and everyone in town knows he's not a legitimate realtor. However, he was never arrested for organized crime, so maybe he's not what he's said to be. After all, he saved the warden when he didn't have to. Who knows if his wives were telling the truth. Even if they were, a wife-beater isn't guaranteed to hurt a child. William's injury was just an accident. Speaking of William, his petition is obviously a heartbreak revenge ploy; he's too young to be with Caroline anyway. Then again, that had to be a tough experience for him. William has the means to raise Isabelle; those Taylors are a fine family. They've contributed so much to the town. The new Taylor Recreation Center is wonderful. Although, William doesn't have much legal ground; he's not related to Isabelle and changed his name. Courts feel that children should be with women, but Sophia clearly isn't bright; not a bright crayon at all. Plus, she's a criminal like her mother. If Derrick is guilty of all he's been accused, Caroline was likely brainwashed by him. She wasn't in tribulation before him. Besides, most people think attempted murder is more severe than forgery. Poor little Isabelle; such terrible

  • Goldberg And Wheeler Court Case Summary

    331 Words  | 2 Pages

    The court cases Goldberg and Wheeler do not stand for the proposition that only welfare benefits for people in extreme circumstances are entitled to pre-termination hearings. However, this is one situation where cutting off benefits with little or no notice could affect the well-being of the family or person. Any programs that offer they type of assistance people rely on to survive could benefit from pre-termination hearings, not just the welfare program. Welfare is one of the main public assistance programs, although I think housing assistance and food stamps might fall into the welfare category, they are also in need of a pre-termination hearing. In the Goldberg and Wheeler cases, California and New York did not want to give anyone a hearing
