ESTANISLAO CONTRERAS

Estanislao Contreras, in the throes of a drunk, described his ex-wife as never feeling appreciated unless a swarm of bumble bees were buzzing around her as if she were a flower in a field of weeds.

Contreras, who has complained that his wife has never had her priorities in the proper order, sent his ex a message reprimanding her for spending the child support on herself rather than their daughter:

"It's one thing to give your husband herpes, cheat on him and leave him for new lovers, but how can you look at your aging face and into your dark soul and justify stealing your daughter's money?

"Are you making her pay rent? Are you charging her for gas? I explained to Michelle that at most you spend $300 a month on food and $100 a month on clothes. You are therefore ripping off our little girl for $550.

"What must Michelle think of her mother? Her mother leaves her father for other men and pilfers her daughter's money.

"You are in your fifth decade and you have two broken families as part of your legacy. The numbers don't lie, particularly the numbers you used to brag about in your past and the substantial addition with which you are presently augmenting your total. Do you intend to garner Annie Gunn's reputation? You are the talk of the town!

"I am forever grateful that I have a mother of great dignity. I wish Michelle could make the same claim."
