Knowing this, I’d be extra careful during the visit. If she had no reason to think that you wouldn’t send the kids back, she had no reason to involve the police! I hope your friend has a video camera, or a cell phone that takes videos. If she objects, just say you want pictures of the kids with you at Christmas! She can hardly object to that.

At best, you’ll have some pictures of the kids opening their gifts. At worst, you’ll have concrete evidence that, if an unpleasant incident does occur, just how it started. I’m not saying she has anything planned: just that she does seem to have some flair for the dramatic. Be careful!

No. They were visiting with me. I am their father with no history of violence. Police escort unnecessary.

So she sent them down to visit you voluntarily, and then changed her mind and decided to come and get them and involved the police?

I’m just trying to understand why the police were involved.
 
I have seen it numerous times. Being an Army spouse, we see lots of crazy divorce stuff happen. It isn’t that unusual for a wife to attempt to turn the tables by calling police on their spouse, and it happens in reverse as well. Most places have a zero tolerance when it comes to domestic calls. If the police are called, they must respond and someplaces even mandate that one party will automatically head to jail.
 
Cop was an ignorant moron. But at the same time I don’t know what she told him either. He was acting as though I were a person with a violent history. He was very guarded. Kept touching his sidearm. Didn’t draw it but kept his hand on it while he spoke with me.
 
Domestic calls are like that. The police go in blind and know how quickly things can go bad. I’ve seen soldiers get chaptered during divorces because soon to be ex spouse repeatedly invomves police so their record shows domestic abuse arrests. One soldier was a 4’ 11” lady whose 6’ 3” husband would call on her knowing the damage it would do to her career.

Get a lawyer fast. Put yourself on supervised visits, meaning only have contact when others are around as witnesses. That is the best chance you can have to protect yourself going forward.
 
Try and document everything! Tape all conversations. If you text with her, save everything. And find a good lawyer asap! It sounds as if she has someone looking out for her interests. You need the same!
