Lies About Family

We’ve had a very crazy year with a lot of different things that we probably didn’t expect were going to happen. But the thing that I do think is awesome is where people are really showing how much they care for their loved ones and going out of their way to show that, despite all of the COVID-19 restrictions and whatever else might get in the way.

We saw a lot of it on SGN, Some Good News with John Krasinski, so many heart-warming, touching stories showing people making that extra effort for their loved ones and I thought that was really cool.


Unfortunately, when it comes to my father, Mike Rinder, it’s kind of the opposite world. Instead of taking this chance with this pandemic and going, “Okay, I’m not going to spread as much hate as I usually do because the world’s already in a pandemic.” Oh no, that wasn’t on his agenda. Mike Rinder just continues to spread hate and harass my family and me and negate and pretend that he didn’t harm my mother for life. And this is all in the face of the pandemic.  You know, already someone shouldn’t do that, but then you have a pandemic that’s a crisis worldwide, and you would think someone would maybe make an extra effort but definitely not Mike Rinder.

Mike Rinder’s full-time job is to spread hate and really just to harass people and the number one people on that list are me and my brother, his children, and my mother and the rest of his family. And I don’t know what else to say. He likes doing it.

He’s going to keep doing it, because I’ve said enough that you would think that a father would be like, oh my God, I don’t want to do that to my daughter. No. It doesn’t matter to him. He doesn’t care who gets in the crossfire. He doesn’t care who the bullet hits as long as he’s still having a platform, getting paid and being able to spin his stories. I’m sorry to have to say it so bluntly, but that’s the bottom line.

And then Mike Rinder gets other people to tell lies and they don’t know what really happened. They don’t know me. They don’t know my mom. They weren’t there watching his arms on her body. And lies hurt.  Yet he tells them on a daily basis. And that’s why I use my justice4mom platform to make sure the truth is known and to get the truth out there about what happened in his attack on my mother.

I want the support of Mike Rinder to end so he has no platform and he doesn’t have the wherewithal he needs to continue to spread hate.

This is Taryn with justice4mom.

Domestic violence is its own pandemic

Expose the truth.
