Here is a summary of the story that brought these charges about.

I went to Taft College with this female in the Fall of 2011, and I run into her months later and she has a black eye and has been beaten up by her boyfriend and asks me to get her a motel room, and she also has a guy with her who name is Mike Woods from Maricopa. Due to my belief of being against men beating on women, I rent her a motel room in Taft. and go on about my business. later in the day she tells me her exboyfriend is stalking her at the motel, and if i would now get her a room in Bakersfield., So I do. I was trying to help a battered female be safe. and come to find out she was lying to me and the guy that was with her was the abusive boyfriend, and come to find out they just committed a burgerly, which consist of them stealing numerous firearms, knives, shoes ect. I'm not sure of all the property that was taken when this event accured. one thing Iam aware of is I had no knowledge of there ill behavior. now here is how mine and my boyfriends charges came about.. At aout 2:00 a.m my sleeping household was startled to wake when there was a loud violent pounding on my front door with voices screaming "Kern County Sheriff Department open the door." and they repeated themselves. Jeff and I jump up and I said "It's the cops, go open the door." When he opens the door he is greeted with several officers with big guns in his face screaming "GET DOWN , GET ON THE GROUND." By then our house is filled with about twenty officers. They handcuff us all and have us lying on the floor then they secure and search the house. I want to also mention where I reside I am a caregiver for an elderly man in a wheelchair. During their search they recovered some ammunition out of the elderly mans safe in the laundryroom and while searching my room they found mine and Jeffs knife collection that we have been collecting for 15 years. and seaized them for evidance. The cops showed the items to the people whom were robbed. And the man said two of the knives might be his. Then the D.A. issued a warrant for Jeff and I. Due to the fact Iam a mother of two young childern I prearrange our bonds and we turn ourselves in. now we are awaiting our court dates. What do we do? PLEASE HELP US WE ARE INNOCENT. , I WAS LIED TO FROM THE START OF ALL OF THIS BULLCRAP... THANK YOU JODIE CASTODIO 661 623-3385, 661 763-1969 PLEASE CALL OR RESPOND.
