Mirkarimi wife: 'This country is destroying my family'
San Francisco Examiner ^ | January 20, 2012 | Ari Burack

Despite the impassioned pleas of Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi’s wife, a judge has renewed a court order barring him from seeing or contacting his spouse or son until his domestic abuse trial is over.

“This country is trying to pull my family apart,” Eliana Lopez told Judge Susan Breall at her husband’s arraignment Thursday. “This is the real violence, I believe.”

Mirkarimi, seated in the front row, quivered and wiped tears from his eyes.

Prosecutors asked to extend an emergency protective order filed after Mirkarimi’s arrest last week on domestic violence battery, child endangerment and witness dissuasion charges, all misdemeanors. The 50-year-old pleaded not guilty Thursday and sought a trial within 45 days.

Lopez met privately with a county victim services advocate, delaying court proceedings for about 30 minutes.

Mrs. Ross Mirkarimi, the good communist soap star from Hugo's utopia can't stand that her wife beater Marxist greenie husband might lose political power because of her domestic abuse charges she intended to control him with.

Now she must deny the truth or he's eventually ruined politically and will lose his office as Sheriff of SF County.

Commies will do anything to retain power.

She does realize that unless she files a complaint against her husband for violating the order that they can ignore it with impunity if both decide too. Heck, I see it all the time in my area, Hubby and Wife gets in a fight, one or the other gets a domestic order, a week later they are back living together. (of course while the order is in effect, the spouse that its against risks arrest if they piss of the other and a complaint is filed)

A falling out among thieves. Members of the San Francisco coalition starting to feed on each other.

I'm sure they do, he is an ex ADA but has no LE experience, and she is a Venezuelan soap opera star who knows every leftist legal trick in the book.

This is a fight between two good commies over who is the commie in charge, and normal for politicians and true San Francisco "citizens". (Really big smirk.)

She claims to be an "Indian" (as in South American native Indian), and has already bounced a triple race card off the United States in her comment that the "gringos" are out to get both her, the innocent "Indian" girl, and her "Iranian" husband.

Us gringos hate everybody, doncha know?

Both of these are Marxist true believers.

DV laws have truly done more damage to families then they will ever fix. And I don’t care who this woman is. She didn’t know all of the consequences of the DV laws, only that she thought she could punish her husband in a brief moment of rage by threatening him with arrest.

But, these laws will never get repealed because we will all accuse the politicians of wanting to go back to the stone age where men supposedly beat their wives into submission on a daily basis while on drunken binges.

Republicans overwhelmingly voted in favor of Hillary’s feminist anti-Second-Amendment and unconstitutional VAWA. Have fun with that, and enjoy the rest of the slide.

(Liberal) DV laws have truly done more damage to families than they will ever fix.

Indeed, fact, along with social welfare that discourages productivity and racist affirmative action law.

Sadly this is one place where the old saw "women, children and minorities hardest hit" is, in fact, true.

Again confirming their legitimate title of "The Stupid Party".
