Gilded cages

Even Santa Fe women of wealth and status get trapped by domestic violence

Corey Pein
In each of the recent, highly publicized domestic violence cases, the couples lived in housing projects, trailer parks and other less-than-chic corners of Santa Fe. This fact appeared to confirm what some already assume. But those who work in the field—knocking on doors after the neighbors hear screaming, consoling a weeping woman afraid for her life—know nothing could be further from the truth.

Man Up

There is another side to the domestic violence story...

Corey Pein
The “fathers’ rights” narrative goes something like this: Family courts, cowed by decades of feminist activism, are biased against anyone with a Y chromosome. A few brave men, undaunted by the forces of feminist oppression, are fighting for their rights as fathers—and for the rights of all male-kind.

Pipe Nightmares

Condo owners have watched their water—and money—leak away.

Alexa Schirtzinger
Despite the rash of class-action lawsuits that have required Kitec manufacturer, Ipex Inc., and contractors who installed it to reimburse residents and re-plumb entire communities—a Nevada court ordered one builder to pay $27 million—residents of troubled Santa Fe development Villa de la Paz haven’t seen a dime.

Deny & Delay

Police lobby fights anti-domestic-violence bill

Corey Pein
Ten years ago, New Mexico State Police Officer Marvyn Jaramillo was pulled over by a Santa Fe County sheriff’s deputy for speeding. He flunked a sobriety test. His loaded shotgun lay behind his seat. The high rates of domestic violence by first responders is well-documented, if somewhat taboo
