The folks over at Daily Mail looked at the footage of David Eason and Jenelle Evans Eason arriving in court last week and noticed that there was a handgun on the dash of the car they took.
That is probably not illegal. But it is rather stupid. And a lot scary. What was the point of that? He’s trying to get his kids back after killing Jenelle’s dog. He got a haircut and cleaned up his beard for court. And then, David decides to leave a loaded gun on his dashboard while going inside?
Currently all of the children have been removed from The Land. Nathan’s custody battle that has been going on for years seems to be going in his favor at this point. I feel like everyone is safer. But not exactly safe. I’m most worried about Maryssa at this point. She needs to be in counseling. And in school. Jenelle is posting pictures of Kaiser who is soon to graduate from pre-K.
David Eason needs to be in jail or a locked mental health facility.
Stupid is as stupid does.
I would say unbelievable, but wait.. this is David Eason.
My concerns for the short term are, if both girls are truly with David’s mother, that David will have access to them, despite court orders.
My concerns for the long term: Knowing people who foster very special needs babies near St Louis and have been fostering (and adopting) for many years, the huge frustration is that the lowest of birth moms, including those who did so many drugs that the child is irreversibly damaged, are still allowed visitation and control over whether the child can make it out of foster care to be adopted, and may even get custody back over and over, meanwhile causing more and more damage.
So I do worry.
I am happy that at least MTV has cut off the money that funds Janelle’s attorneys but she is still getting money from tabloids, I gather.
But for now…
Fantasy: someone darts David with elephant tranquilizer and leaves him immobilized in the middle of
Gun on dashboard = clear indication of total lack of judgement.
How do you know it’s not Jenelle’s gun and she placed it there? They are both two of a kind. Smart judge putting them under a gag order. No selling stories for profit.
Would it matter? He is in control of everything anyway. It was clearly left on the dashboard for everyone to see as a message
Well Spunky, Those are David’s weird hands on the steering wheel. It’s right where he would put it. Jenelle would put it way to the passenger side. ANYMORE COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS QUESTIONS?
Not ridiculous question at all. Jenelle loves her pistols as we saw when she had road rage. They both wanted that gun there. Do you know if he’s left or right handed? Or is she?
Yes I actually do, because I watch the show. DO YOU? I am not in the mood for your weird bullshit tonight, Spunky. Give it a rest.
Maryssa is fully indoctrinated. It would take years of therapy to undo all of the damage. She wasn’t even around her peers at school, so she couldn’t use them as a normalcy gauge. And damn it if she wasn’t right at that age where values could be seared into her brain for life, in this case bad ones.
Speaking as a mother, if I were to lose my kids, and a judge told me I could have them back if I left my husband, he would be walking out of that courthouse alone. This is yet another example of why the sympathy for Jenelle is misplaced. She is actively choosing to put those kids in danger over and over again. She didn’t walk out of that courthouse alone. She walked out holding his hand.
She agreed to leave that gun on the dashboard. Both David and Jenelle did that to make a statement. The statement is they do not believe their lifestyle is wrong, and they will continue to have access to firearms and use them regardless of what our legal system tries to impose. They think it’s cool and commendable to act that way. It speaks volumes. It says they will never be appropriate caregivers for their children because what is best for those kids, which in this case is to get rid of the guns, will never come first.
Barb should have gotten Ensley. David’s mom will allow David to see the girls. If the court gives them a hard no on custody, he knows exactly where they are to go get them anyway. Barb isn’t perfect, but she has been successfully raising Jace for years, and she’s the only one with the balls to stand up to David. They didn’t want to give Ensley to Barb for a reason. She would have honored the court’s ruling. Why anyone allowed them to decide who took the girls is beyond me.
I’ve had my own custody issues and am always shocked at how a mother chooses not to put her child first. In my case it works to my advantage but it’s still sad. How do you explain to a child that their mother just never took the appropriate steps to regain custody? I would have moved heaven and hell for my own children which is why I’m fighting for my grandchild.
Barb just wants to FUCKING RETIRE. Is she supposed to raise every kid her idiot daughter plops out? She was working at Wal Mart slicing cheese for fucksake. Let BARB LIVE. I think she has one of the other daughters kids too. She didn’t sign up for this bullshit.
Thank you Thank you Thank you!! Just because it would be noble of Barb doesn’t make it right for her to do it.
Its would be dangerous to put Ensley with Babs because David and Jenelle would focus their anger towards Babs.
I don’t know these people but I’ll just assume that Barb raised Janelle from birth as most mothers do. And the values that she instilled in his despicable woman can certainly be called into question. I’m going to take a wild guess that Janelle is no worse than her mother.
You reap what our sow.
And those kids will most likely be awesomely shitty parents too.
“This despicable” not “his despicable” and “you sow” not “our sow”
Grrrr, proofread your posts Jim before you submit!
Barbara was in a very abusive relationship with Jenelle’s father. Sadly, the cycle is repeating. Barbara has managed to get her shit together and properly parent her daughter’s offspring. Perhaps some day Jenelle will be a good parent for Ensley’s children. If they all live that long.
So, I wonder who Dr. Drew is chatting with? Tyler?, Caitlyn?,Janelle? Barbra? Jace? Leah? Ryan? Amber? On and on and on.
Point being, MTV can’t do jack to help any of them.
Assistance with their health tip toed goodbye.
Most of the people you name have really deep rooted issues dating back to childhood. A few trips to Dr Drew or even a stay at his celeb, “rehab” will never last. Most of them need long term dual diagnosis treatment, half way houses and then a lot of follow up. Viewers probably would loose interest. They use them and spit them out.
Just noticed Dr. Drew is on the reunion tonight. Janelle causes drama apparently. Shocker.
I don’t know what the gun are in NC, but if he doesn’t have have a concealed carry license I think you have to keep your gun in open sight. But he could just NOT brought a gun to court like a normal person.
Leaving your gun exposed on your dashboard (where a ciminal can easily snatch it) HAS to be illegal everywhere, right?
If it’s not, what the actual fuck?!
Never would defend these asshats, but how would you know it’s loaded?
Um, BECAUSE, DAVID????????????????
I pray David is kept far away from the children. I pray Janelle comes to her senses & puts their well being ahead of her own selfish desires. Let her stay with David if she wishes. She has no more idea how to raise children than how to properly care for herself. Those children deserve a more stable environment. God bless Barb for all the good she has done in raising her grandson. Rant over.
If only I had a vote, I would vote for a mental institution for David. Possibly permanently.
That it’s not illegal to have a (probably) loaded handgun on your car’s dashboard scares the living daylights out of me…When a John Wayne movie fantasyland becomes normalcy
Other than having it ON THE DASHBOARD it is kind of normal in the south. We are are all amed to the gills. Um, allegedly.
Jenelle can’t take care of herself, so how is she expected to take care of her kids? She can’t live w/o validation from a man. Maybe one day she can? Who knows. Right now she’s choosing David. The kids needs are prob met better by other caretakers. David has run the show too long. I hope society takes action & puts him away. Society needs protection from him. Jenelle will prob end up alone again..for a while..
Wow – Jenelle’s life is crumbling and I pray she stays sober ??
David and Jenelle went shopping at Lowes today and it looked like they bought a lot of fertilizer, some PVC pipe, some plastic buckets… does this freak anyone else out?
Bomb materials? ala Timothy McVee?
Yes, thank God the children have been removed! This just worse by the minute.
Sounds like someone is watching ? them.
I just hope this ends soon, nobody hurt, and just a bad memory.
To grow tomatoes, they want join your tomato page/blog this year?
Sounds more like they want to be weed farmers…
Out of all the kids I worry most about Maryssa too. Her mom and dad can’t properly care for her and now she is with her maternal grandmother who hopefully can. I wonder if she had any type of relationship with her grandmother before all this happened. She’s also been removed from all her siblings too and that must be hard. She seemed close to Kaiser and Ensley. Even Jace in a few pictures. Hopefully the kids are all able to see eachother so they don’t become estranged. I feel for Barb who now has 3 young children to care for.
