MIKE RINDER ASSAULTED MY MOTHER, PERMANENTLY DISABLING HER: In 2010, my “father” grabbed my mom’s arms, crushing and twisting them so hard that she sustained lacerations, bruises, nerve damage, and a shoulder injury.

“Unarmed assault. Husband forcefully grabbed her by the arm.” — Paramedic Report


I wanted to once again go over the fateful day when the attack on my mother happened. I did not expect to see what I saw that day. I really didn’t. It was a complete shock to me that it happened and that I would be witnessing my father, Mike Rinder, assaulting and abusing my mother, physically and mentally.


What happened, in a nutshell, is he grabbed her arms and was forcibly holding her to the point of cracking her shoulder and causing nerve damage. He gouged her flesh and some of the flesh was removed from her arms. He screamed profanities at her, held her down with the strongest grip that he could, so she couldn’t move, and actually so he could break her shoulder, essentially, and hurt her arm. After that happened, of course, she needed medical attention.



A paramedic came and treated my mom. And the paramedic report cited it as “Unarmed assault. Husband forcefully grabbed her by the arm.”

It was plain as day. The evidence is there. I’m an eye witness. I saw it happening.

The truth must be made known.


I want Mike Rinder to tell the truth about it. And I don’t want him to have an excuse to continue to act like and fake that nothing happened, when my mom is living in pain for the rest of her life.

Thank you for listening.

The results of Mike Rinder’s Abuse

My mom is 5' 4", she’s a small woman. Mike Rinder, my father, was in a rage when he grabbed her and put his body weight and pressure onto her body. This broke her shoulder—fractured the bones—and then caused nerve damage. There were also flesh wounds. The majority of the damage was to her right arm. That was where the break occurred.

The flesh wounds got infected and other ramifications happened. She’s damaged for life.

A renowned orthopedic surgeon that not only saw my mother but actually performed the operation on her, said “It was some fairly significant force placed on that extremity,” which would have been her arm, “which would cause a fair amount of pain and discomfort.” He went on to say, “a 10 out of 10 on the pain level.”


And, “it can be somewhat controlled with medications but is something that is probably at this point, it’s a permanent disability that will always be there with her and it’s difficult to predict whether or not it will eventually resolve or will always be there.”

At this point, it will always be there because it’s now been even a couple years since the doctor made this statement, and she’s still in pain every single day.

I will continue to do anything I can to ease my mother’s discomfort and pain but it’s going to be a disability she has for the rest of her life. And I will support her for sure, for as long as it takes. That’s not even a question.


But I implore that the harassment and hate against her and me and my family by Mike Rinder and anybody that supports him, ends. It needs to end.

Thank you very much and I really appreciate you being there.

My father, Mike Rinder, in 2007 up and left. Just fully 100% deserted our family and my brother, my mom, his family, his mother, his brother, sister that all live in Australia and he left. So we go to see him in Florida. His brother came from Australia.


We went to reconcile this as a family. We get there and he had no interest in talking to us. As a matter of fact, the first thing I know, he’s on my mom, screaming at her, screaming profanities, yelling at her, “You b-i-t-c-h!” And with such hatred.


I remember very vividly standing there and seeing it and thinking to myself: “He wants to hurt her, he wants to hurt her. He hates her more than anything in the whole world.” And that’s what came across. And he then was grabbing her arms while he was in this rage. And he was holding onto her arms and he was cracking her shoulder and causing her flesh wounds and damage and nerve damage and injuring her for life. It is hard to think about it today, years later, because that picture doesn’t go out of your mind—watching my father, Mike Rinder, assaulting my mother.


She is damaged for life because of Mike Rinder.


And now life entails working around that pain and helping my mom be as happy and as physically well as she can be considering the circumstances of the permanent damage.


Her pain haunts me every single day. And I want that to end. I want her pain to end.


And I want the support of Mike Rinder to end. I want him to take responsibility for what he did and stop denying the damage he caused and what pain he inflicted on this other human being.


Thank you for your continued support. It makes a difference.
