Part I dissects the related San Bernardino County California cases involving Katie Tagle and Stephen Garcia.

The Plaintiff approached law enforcement, as well as both civil and criminal sectors of the legal system for an order of protection. She was unable to gain protection from through the courts. Judges presumed that the technological evidence presented was manufactured. Yet, a technological examination of the evidence clearly demonstrates the legitimate threat to the Plaintiff and their son.
