Time really is fast moving. It rapidly changes everything and it forces the people to move faster. Much faster than the financial regulation that is being passed in the Senate and much more faster than the country's recovery from recession.

In Article: re: On The Run - Travis Toepke

I've known Travis since mid 2001. Travis is a gentle man. He NEVER ever raised his voice in anger around me or my 3 children!


I know Travis could NEVER do what he is accused of doing! It's just not in him to do something like that! He was there for me when I had problems with my children, and I didn't know what to do because the idiot spyche dr's in Bismarck were to dumb at the time to treat children under the age of 7. He supported me when I needed it during that intensely stressful time. If it wasn't for him I think I would have lost myself in my stress, but it was him that helped keep me sane.


He also prevented me from committing suicide!


And I know personally that he would never push himself on a woman! With me he was ALWAYS gentle, and NEVER forceful. And I was with him twice when he was drunk, and neither time did he try to force himself on me! We were sexually active together for close to 2 years. And during that whole time he was over at my apartment he conducted himself like a true gentleman!  He spent time with me and with my children, and never was he mean to any of us.


To this day we speak on the phone and have 5 hour conversations at times. I have screamed at him on the phone and never once did he scream back at me! And even though we are no longer together, he continues to be my rock and my support when I need it.


I feel disgusted that anyone could think he did this!


And as for the witness he needs to step up and tell what he knows. The witness told me a year ago about Trav being looked for. Which I think is rediculous! The state has his address so there is NO PROBLEM FINDING him, unless the police didn't do their homework and find him through the state's records!  So saying he was on the run is an absolutely false claim!

We can argue right and wrong all we what . People see things one way others see it a different way

And just so everyone knows the DNA that was found on the 17 year old was just that found on her not in her might have something to do with the fact that her and the 18 year were playing "games" funny that they spent the night making out after they had been "RAPED" dont you think


People should not be so rushed to judge what they hear on the news as fact .... Was not reported that those girls recanted their story not once but twice never heard anything about them making out on the news now did we .......


As far as the booze yes Travis was wrong yes he knew better !!

This Country needs to remember that just because a women screams rape does not mean she is telling the truth. Girls are learning that if they want out of trouble thats what you do scream rape and ruin innocent peoples life

And again NOBODY has answered my question as to how Travis could be on the run when they " the cops " knew where he worked, lived and had his number

I happen to know plenty of people that live with people who are older/younger than them.  I know people who are married, that are 15 years older/younger.  Theres NOTHING wrong with someone living with younger people

It still doesnt matter he should get the punishment Alcohaul does not affect a persons judgement that bad you still know what you are doing and you still have the capability to say no!!!!!


]A 17,18,21 has nothing in common with a 33yr old!! they still are learning what life is about while the 33yr old has had more life experiances and knows what life is about!


They are also still trying to figure out who they are!!! So yes it does matter!!!


As even though they may be age appropriate mentality wise they are still in their teens!! Where the 33yr old should be past that!!!

Has anyone ever thought that maybe these girls are trying to get attention, or at least the 18 yr old?   and for the record, there is NOTHING wrong with an 18 year old and 33 yr old having sex, I personally believe(and have good reason to believe) that she consented, and then felt bad, so she called rape.  Also, theres NOTHING wrong with a 33 yr old living with 18 and 21 yr olds.  


Just  because there is DNA, doesnt make him 100% guilty.  im not saying that it was right for him to have sex with a 17 yr old, it is against the law, BUT when alcohol is involved, things happen. 


And if there is also a 21 YR OLD and a 33 YR OLD that lives there, theres gonna be alcohol in the house.  its hard to stop them from grabbing alcohol from the fridge and drink it, specially if he wasnt gaurding the fridge

In Article: jury duty in district court not family friendly

To all parents who make the excuses that daycare is too hard on children when they have been with family! This is not true the only things that make it harder for the child are the Parents!! Yes it might be scary for them but how do they handle their first time at school?? How do you handle them when you have to leave them do you give them 1 kiss and 1 hug and reassure them that you will be back then let the provider take over or do you show up 1 hour before and sit there and hold on to that child and let that child scream and carry on??


When you take control of the situation and say no i have to go now and leave normally the child will calm down about 5-10 minutes after the parent has left but if you let that child take control then it is harder on the child as well as the parent themselves and it is harder to get the child to calm down!!!


Yes by all means children do need to come first in many cases but when it involves you going to jail then no because where would your child be while you are in jail for something that could have been avoided!!


To the mom with the 15yr old i am sure that you have friends in your town that could watch or ask the police to drive around your house and check on her there are many ways to deal with this or while you are gone do you not have realitives that can stay at your house and see that she is safe??


To the one that say daycare charges an outrageous price for drop ins!! This is true but you have got to realize that you are taking up a spot that a full time parent can use! Therefor after your child leaves the daycare the daycare is out of that income and needs to either replace or take the drop!! Which is hard because so many daycare providers (in home) only have 1 income and the expenses of daycare are greater than what they actually make!!


There are 3 solutions for this type of problem here are your choices


A.. dont go get hauled in to jail


B. use daycare


c.. Have a friend,family,or neighbor watch your child


 but you need to figure out which one you want to use and stick with it!!!

I think it is very sad how the world is not family friendly- with work, jury duty etc.  We are supposed to take care of our children and supervise them and if we do not then we end up dealing with the courts.  If you are a single parent and the only jobs you are being offered start at 6 in the am or run late at night when no one(reliable) is available to watch/supervise your kids....what are you supposed to do?

I was told I had to serve Jury duty for the WHOLE month of July. I have a 15 year old daughter who will be home on summer vacation in July.  I have close to 10  registered sex offenders   within 10 miles of my home alone that the court systems have let  free to roam the streets of my small town. As a mother ,it is my job to keep my daughter safe and protected from trash like this, and being FORCED to serve on any jury is taking my rights away to do just that. I need to be home with my daughter to make sure she stays safe while home from school, DON'T I ????? Reply...

I was picked twice..first in Texas and the second time here.  When I was in Texas, I was workin as a Correctional Officer at the jail that held county, state, and federal prisoners so..I was excused there.  The second time, I was picked for Morton county but since the town I resided in was NOT in Morton County I was dismissed again. I made a whole $6..Yes I did spend it all in one place!!

I was called for Jury duty last spring and I have never  registered to vote and have never voted . I have multiple medical reasons why I can not serve Jury duty. One is that I have lost my ability to handle any stressful situation,  and I am on medication for that. My doctor wrote them a letter stated that ,and I was excused for one year, and was told that I would be re evaluated , if need be, if  I was ever called again , and wouldn' t you know it.  I was called again excately a year later  to serve again ,and I want to know what part of multiple medical reason  I can not  serve do they not get?  Why in all the people in this country ,and this state and county do they have to keep picking on me, I ask you.

I do not know of anyone involved in this case, but I can remember back in high school girls who were 15 and 16(and they looked like they were 18)  lying to 20 year old guys.  Lil  tramps should get punished for that.  Getn to a point you need to do a background search on people you meet.   I do know of someone who was falsely accused by a vendictive woman- she didnt get her way so she tried to destroy him- I hope she rots in hell for what she did- Im also glad people saw thru her bull**** Reply...

I was saddened..I didnt think that Travis could do somethin like this, hes always been reserved, level headed. I cant say whether he did or didnt because I wasnt there when alcohol is involved, some people change. I am prayin for him though!! 


As for the people who were there that nite..Please STEP FORWARD n talk to the police about what happened..or be a witness in court. 


ps hi Shon!!

I am so glad that someone has that much faith in our states finest....... you keep having that faith . And by the way what difference does it make that he is 33 and his roomate was 21 I know lots of 21 year olds that live with with older people . I guess the real question is why did Morton County call it a "on the run" when they had all the info to get him........ie place of work and home not to mention phone numbers of his and his family sounds strange to me .

what in god's name was a 33 yr old doing rooming with an 18yr old and a 21 yr old??


The police go on more evidence then just the female's word they preform certain tests and ask her various questions!!


I also read a statement that he is a nice guy and wouldnt do that to anybody!! You might believe that!! But remember everyone who knew Ted Bundy said the exact same thing about him!!! And couldnt believe that he done the things he did!!

Last I remember, Anyman,,,, who is over 21  should KNOW better than to hit that thang!   Espcially when they are the ho hukkers they are... I know lotsa girls who are very in the know.... and they are always calling rape!  and their moms are there... be thankful its NOT your girls being allll that!..
I am in agreement with the fact that he is true to his mom.. as are sons in single homes as stated.
IF this truely happened then I think God is the only person who can say what he did... I pray for BOTH  sides...
