Heroic Los Angeles Father Risks Jail Rather
than
Lose
His Daughter
Martin Luther King went to jail to end segregation.
Nelson Mandela went to jail to end apartheid. Edgar, a

right to be a father. Hear this heroic father's gripping
story on His Side
with Glenn Sacks on
KRLA
870 AM in Los Angeles at 11 PM on Sunday, April 13.

Also joining Glenn will be criminal defense attorney
Lisa Scott, founder of the advocacy group
Taking
Action Against Bias in the System (TABS), and John
Brumbaugh, the former Torrance police officer who has
fought for over five years to clear his name and get his
life back after being falsely accused of domestic
violence.
To learn more about Edgar, John, Lisa and TABS, go to
His Side with Glenn
Sacks. To find out more about police and
judicial anti-male bias in domestic violence-related
matters, see Glenn's article "Baseball
Player's Domestic Violence Arrest Demonstrates How Men
are Presumed Guilty in Domestic Disputes" (Los
Angeles Daily Journal, San Francisco Daily Journal,
8/8/02). To learn how restraining orders based on
spurious charges of domestic violence are used to
separate fathers from their children, see the brilliant
Stephen Baskerville's
"No Restraint on Restraining Orders" (Human
Events, 8/5/02). To learn more about the ways false
accusations of domestic violence are used against men in
custody battles and ways we can change this, see Glenn's
"Kitaen
Plays the 'Woman's Trump Card' Against Finley in Custody
Battle" (Cybercast News Service, 5/28/02).
