They say the truth always comes out in the end.
But what they don’t tell you is how long the lies can echo in a courtroom.

Billy Bullshitter — the classic abuser turned courtroom performer. Calm in public, cruel in private. Fabricator of falsehoods, master of manipulation. He doesn’t want justice. He wants control. And when he loses it, he tries to reclaim it with lies.

For anyone who’s ever sat through a court hearing and watched your abuser play the victim — I see you.
For every woman who’s been told, “He seems so reasonable” — I believe you.
For every time you’ve had to defend your truth while he distorts it — I stand with you.

Court isn’t always where justice happens.
Sometimes, it’s where abuse continues — in a suit, with a smirk, holding a microphone called “testimony.”

But here’s what matters most:
You walked away from that life.
You broke the cycle.
You’re building something real now — peace, purpose, freedom.

His lies may win him sympathy for a moment. But your truth?
Your truth will build you an entire life. One with laughter, love, and no one telling you who you’re allowed to be.

Let him perform.
Let the system take its time.
You don’t need their applause — you’ve already won the battle that matters most: you got your life back.
