Take Good Notes

Take Good Notes

Take Good Notes — a raw and emotional true story about a mother’s relentless fight to tell the truth about her son’s imprisonment. When her son is accused of being a murderer, aggressor, and abuser by the prosecutor, a mother’s world shatters. In reality, it was the ex-girlfriend who had been the aggressor and abuser. The justice system, quick to believe the loudest voice, ignores the evidence and silences the truth. Refusing to stay quiet, she becomes an advocate, investigator, and voice not only for her child, but for every parent who has watched the system fail someone they love. Take Good Notes is part memoir, part call for justice, and a powerful and heart-wrenching journey through betrayal, bias, and the fierce resilience of a mother’s love. It also challenges the assumption that only women can be victims of abuse, exposing how truth can be distorted and how far a mother will go to reclaim it. Told through court records, personal journal entries, and raw emotional reflection, this story sheds light on how abuse can dismantle a family and how the justice system often gets it wrong.
