Messy military lawyer, PSA, public service announcement. You’ve gone on dates, you’ve hooked up, you’ve had interactions with a young lady. Maybe things didn’t go the way she wanted. Maybe things didn’t turn out the way you wanted.
Do not, do not, do not delete your text. Do not delete your call history. Do not delete the fact that she missed a call when she tried drunk texting you that night and you said, no, do not get rid of the that. Don’t. If things go poorly, you’re going to be hearing from her in two weeks, four weeks, six weeks, eight months. You never know when an allegation is going to be coming forward. I’ve had so many clients that are like, well, I was done with her. Like I wasn’t going to date her and I didn’t want my messages in my phone. Maybe you’ve carried on. You’ve got the next person in your life.
You don’t want those messages to be seen. Keep the messages. Keep the messages. Because when she walks out of the room and says, that’s the best sex ever, and then later she’s like, oops, I was assaulted. You need those messages because she deleted them. I have had countless cases where they turn over some messages. You know how on iPhone you can just sit there and press forward and then delete select messages. I’ve had women make it look like my clients were stalking them because it looks like a one way conversation. With no replies. There’s replies and you’ve got them. So don’t delete them. If you hooked up with a girl, keep them, you just never know when an allegation could be coming. Messy military lawyer.
