My wife and I have had a toxic and dysfunctional relationship for the past three years. What started out as me trying to help her overcome drug addiction problems to methadone and benzoates, has turned into a nightmare for me. Her behavior has been as anyone who knows about benzoate addiction, bizarre and unpredictable. Every time she wanted to relapse, she had me incarcerated for domestic issues. Most of which were not prosecuted. She accuses me of physical violence when in actuality I was restraining her from being violent with me. My dilemma is that she got pregnant during the tail end of our relationship. I'm positive the baby is mine. When she had the child, she gave the baby the last name of a 16 year old boy she has been having an affair with. She also gave the hospital false information about our domestic issues to prevent me from seeing my son. It all worked in her favor due to hospital policy. Since she signed the BC with the boys last name name, I am not allowed near the hospital to see my son. I have applied for absolute divorce and custody of the child to force the dna test, but that will take about 3 months to address the issues. Since the baby was born addicted to methadone, he will be hopitalized for about 3 weeks. I have been to CPS and talked to the agent working my case. She informed me that there is nothing they can do about my rights as the father. She did let me know that my son is fine although very heavily sedated on morphine. They are testing the stool sample of my son for additional drugs. (Which I'm sure will be in the baby's system.) My questions are, How much will an affair with a 16 year old boy play in the outcome of a custody battle after it is proven I am the father. How can I expedite the dna issue. And is it possible to get the opportunity to see my son if he is released into her custody from the hospital? I am afraid she may flee the state when she finds out that I've filed for divorce and custody to prevent the dna test. She has called, harrassing me over the dna test and admitting her love for this boy. I'm hoping CPS will see through her lies and put the child into foster care until a dna test can be done. Any help will be appreciated. I know this thread may be similar in nature to the one I posted about a week ago, but it is different in nature. Please allow it to stay posted as I need further information on how to handle this delicate matter.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
