You need to be a bit quicker on your feet like I had to be - seven times !!!!!!! My ex and I had only separated for six months at that stage and there was no other woman for her to see in my arms as I had stayed on in P.N.G. to complete my employment contract. However, I am sure she heard from friends still in P.N.G. at the time that I had found a female companion about four months after she left me.
The attack happened in my father's driveway on the Gold Coast, where she chose to let me pick up my son (then 4 years old) for contact at the time that she insisted which was 3.00pm. She was quite late arriving there, he badly needed a bath and she had no clean clothes for him etc etc. I quite rightly complained albeit very politely and she seized the opportunity to grab my son and chuck him in the car. I stood behind the car as she started backing it out and I had to jump out of the way. My dad and my brother witnessed all this. She then lined me up and deliberately attempted to run me over a further six times but I was too quick jumping behind brick walls etc. She was hacking wheelies in my dad's gravel driveway. Frustration got the better of her - she then got out of the car and started punching, scratching and kicking me. The only thing I then did was to grab her wrists and restrain her. My dad and my brother were trying to reason with her while she was attacking me but to
no avail. She bit me on my upper arm drawing blood. My brother then grabbed her wrists and she bit him on his hand also drawing blood. My dad picked my son up out of the car while this was going on. She turned on him and demanded he hand over her son and pushed my dad around. My dad was about 65 and not very steady on his feet. She got my son and locked herself in by brother's flat. My brother's girlfriend had called the police during the scuffle. The police finally convinced her to come out and give them her side of the story. She still refused to let me have Contact with my son and the police gave me a phone number to contact her on two days later when she finally allowed three hours contact.
Silly me, I felt sorry for her obvious mental state and did not press charges. I really regret that decision now. I wish my ex would plea insanity - then she would get treatment for her mental illness, which by the way has been diagnosed in May 2001 after being pressured by Family Services, the Child Rep and also recommended by one of her friends who had come to the conference to support her. The diagnosis was a psychosis with paranoid delusions. However she has not gone back to that psychiatrist and will not get treatment.
Now she has abducted my son because she lost at the Final Residence hearing. The Child Rep was pushing for Full Residence and Sole Guardianship to go to me and only supervised contact for the mother once per month for two hours max. The Judge agreed and made those orders. She will be PASing him at every opportunity again.

The woman's lawyer says: "...When you see the man that you love in the arms
of someone else - that has to have such a deep emotional impact on you."
Yeah right! So you hop into your Merc. and run the the man over, not once,
but 3 times! Voila!! That's what you should do right??
This again, is a plea for insanity, from a woman who knew perfectly well,
what she was doing. On that basis, will she get to be sentenced to a lesser
charge?
Now, Let's change that statement to: "...when you see your children, your
house and everything that you worked for, all your life, being taken away
from you forcibly, that -has to have such a deep emotional impact on you."
What should a man do then? Get into your Holden and.........
OR, should you dress in black and demonstrate? This is such a HARD question
isn't it?
Jealous wife ran over cheating husband three times
August 6 2002
Suspecting her husband of having an affair, Clara Harris did what wealthy
wives can afford to do: She hired an investigator. But what the private eye
saw could become Exhibit A against Harris herself.
As the investigator's video camera rolled, an enraged Harris allegedly
killed her husband in a Texas hotel parking lot by running him over three
times with her silver Mercedes-Benz and leaving the car parked on top of
him.
The victim's 16-year-old daughter was in the passenger seat.
"It was an accident," Harris, a 44-year-old dentist, told reporters after
her arrest on murder charges.
The episode happened outside a Houston hotel after Harris confronted her
orthodontist husband, David, and got into a screaming fight with the alleged
other woman.
Bobbi Bacha of Blue Moon Investigations said the detective agency turned
over to police a videotape that contains "all of the activities and
movements of the subject to the very end." Harris' lawyer, George Parnham,
said last week that she would plead innocent at her August 23 arraignment.
She remains free on $US30,000 ($A55,800) bail.
Parnham, who unsuccessfully defended Andrea Yates, the Houston mother who
claimed insanity after drowning her five children in the bathtub, suggested
that this case, too, would hinge on the defendant's state of mind.
"Obviously, something triggered what happened," Parnham said. "This was not
an act that was anyway akin to the mentality of Clara Harris.
"We have a professional person who is very intelligent. When you see the man
that you love in the arms of someone else - that has to have such a deep
emotional impact on you."
Harris had hired Blue Moon Investigations on the very day her 44-year-old
husband was killed.
But before the investigator could confirm her suspicions, she showed up
unexpectedly at the suburban hotel where her husband of 10 years had gone
with one of his employees, Gail Bridges. The investigator had David Harris
under surveillance at the time.
Witnesses said Clara Harris got into a fight with Bridges in the lobby,
ripping the woman's shirt off, and announced that her husband was having an
affair with Bridges. David Harris and about 10 hotel employees tried to pull
the two women apart.
Security guards escorted David Harris and Bridges outside. Clara Harris,
meanwhile, got into her 2001 four-door Mercedes S-Class 430.
With tyres squealing, she headed toward a crowd in the parking lot as
alarmed hotel employees banged on the bonnet and tried to get her to stop,
witnesses said.
"She jumped the median and ran over him three times," Nassau Bay police
Lieutenant Joe Cashiola told the Houston Chronicle.
"I saw the daughter lying on the ground, crying uncontrollably and sobbing.
She had to watch her dad five feet from her, underneath the car, while
they're putting her mom in handcuffs."
A witness, Angela Reyes, told the Chronicle that David Harris' teenage
daughter from a previous marriage jumped out of the car and punched Clara
Harris in the face.
Clara Harris yelled toward her husband: "I'm so sorry! I love you! Keep
breathing!"
Last week, the teenager's mother went to court to ask that David Harris'
estate be placed in a trust for his children so it could not be used by
Clara Harris to defend herself or to profit from her husband's death.
