They were 4 and 7 when I managed to break us all free from domestic violence. Then, HHS put a patch on me. I did everything right for two years and got them back just to have another patch come back false positive for meth. The abuser got primary custody and spared no time weaponizing my babies against me.
I called HHS for help again within the year. I let them put a patch test on me. I had done 5 UAs covering the whole time- two weeks before, one week before, the day after it was attached, the day it came off and the day after that. UAs clean. Patch positive. again. Kids legally “Removed “ again, but not physically since my ex had not allowed me to have any contact with my kids for 5 weeks to punish me for not obeying his authority and my calling hhs on him.
They are turning 8 and 11 next month and I was just threatened by the judge with termination of my rights so the man I escaped before the states “help” can finally finish his plan for revenge and win sole custody and erase me.
Oh, I tested my house and it was positive. But courts have been brainwashed by “experts” from the manufacturer who boast 100% reliability yet have zero scientific backing that they did not create. Why does pharmchek only cite court cases up until 2010? Isn’t there more recent evidence of their reliability? Shouldn’t they have scientists backing them after a quarter century? I think Iowa is the only state left using them
Was part of the BGC group from FB. Paid for $600 worth of VIP courses and replays. When they left fb so did access to the group files and videos that were promised on loom. Also, said colleagues also separated leaving less opportunities to learn the things promised. This was in 2021. In 2022, found them on ig under paths. Refused to pay for anything because all new processes were being taught. Left lots of vulnerable people in the dark on telegram also. This must be remedied.
T’Meka Thorpe of Paths2Frdm on YouTube and Instagram scammed over 600 of us who signed up for her 4th Quarter Takeover classes we were told by her would happen every Sunday for 8 sessions $499 for each month. We were told class would start on a certain day and it didn’t after we already paid in full for the month. When we eventually had our first class, it wasn’t a class at all, it was just her talking about what we would go over in the next class. Seemed like almost every week there was some excuse as to why class would have to either be canceled or postponed.
We were told that we would go over specific information the following week or that the classes missed would be combined to make up for the missed classes and when class finally happened, we would only get a portion of what was promised and often she would just not go over what she said she would and focus on other topics, never revisiting what was promised.
We were told by T’Meka there would be replays of our classes that we’d have access to on YouTube after class and every week we would wait for the replays and out of what was supposed to be 8 classes, there were only about 3 that were posted. She took a couple of those down and for weeks she kept saying she would release them to a Google drive for us to sign up to gain access, but she never ever did provide an avenue for us to even sign up.
Then after several weeks, T’Meka said the uploads from class would be uploaded to a Dropbox that we all signed up for, but weeks went by and we were still never given access to our replays from class or the supporting documents she kept promising us.
She promised us every week that we would receive important supporting documents related to each class, which we were told was part of our membership, that would be uploaded for our access that we never ever received access to. People would constantly ask when we were going to get access to everything she promised in her instagram post comments and she’d block them or ignore them and other times just make promises about how she’d release them but never did. People are still asking.
Class members also asked in her YouTube comments until she finally just turned off the comments entirely. T’Meka would get upset during classes and berate and spew nasty insults at the students and our class as a whole, for asking certain questions or for not answering her YouTube polls as she expected. Then a couple of our classes on our zoom sessions she ended abruptly, without any warning after her becoming irate and obnoxious and yelling at us. All because a few people asked questions unrelated to the specific class material for that day, and another day due to people communicating amongst each other in the chat.
We were all left shocked and utterly confused and couldn’t believe her actions or behavior.
Overall, I and no one I am aware of from the class received what we were told we would receive for our $499 x2 membership, for what was supposed to be 8 classes/ weeks. The actual first class was held on 12/15/24, and the last class was on 2/30. Several classes were missed and we did not get our money's worth for what was promised so this was definitely a SCAM.
Right after that scam, she is now planning an upcoming tax class where she will charge another $499.
Although some of the information she’s taught, that she claimed as hers when it wasn’t, has helped some people. Often there were many holes in her information mixed with miss-information and even lies, along with giving just enough information to draw a hopeful person in.
I feel for anyone who gives this woman a dime after recently being completely exposed online as a real fraud whose left a endless trail of countless victims who’ve suffered financial, legal, and psychological turmoil and damage behind, on her so called “Path to Freedom”. BEWARE of this cunning manipulator. She is dangerous.
