and I was using the bathroom. I had been in there for 5 whole minutes & my dad was screaming his head off at me that we were going to be late & miss the beginning. Screaming at a 5-year-old in the bathroom. I seriously still have bathroom issues because of this trauma. I have… — PolitiTweet.org

from being 5 years old. My parents took the 3 of us kids to Disney world in Florida. We were probably there something like a week, and I'm sure we did all sorts of things that I don't remember. But what I do remember is one night when we were about to go to a fireworks show and… — PolitiTweet.org

How abusive is my father, Dr Joe Muscato? Oh, can I tell you stories. This man has been abusing his family for at least my 38 years. He's been married for almost 50 years & he's just as abusive to his wife/my mother Dr Mary Muscato as he is to me. One of my first memories is… https://t.co/5x09OtIbze — PolitiTweet.org

This is what he dropped off @ my hotel IMMEDIATELY AFTER my dad told the judge he had already given me everything in an Rx bottle he could find in his house w/my name on it. Look at all these!! I haven't had these for 3 WEEKS!! He WANTED me off my meds for court. What a bastard. https://t.co/MG2Lt1TK3o — PolitiTweet.org

@ShawnaBergen I've been off my PTSD meds for 3 weeks & counting. I can't sleep bc I also just had back surgery, I don't have my mattress topper that I'm supposed to be using. I can't use my cane on the correct side bc my dad injured my wrist. I'm not okay but I will be. I had therapy today ❤️ — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

I told his lawyer 3 times over email, in writing, that I need appropriate clothing from my closet at his house, for court. He is doing this on purpose. He wants me to suffer. He wants to damage my credibility in court. He's playing hardball. Yet he still claims he "loves" me. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

He is doing this on purpose. He WANTED me to show up to court unmedicated and dressed inappropriately. I have been wearing the same clothes for THREE WEEKS. He has control over my bank account!! He WANTED to damage my credibility in court and he succeeded. He's such a prick. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

I told the judge that my father is refusing to give me back my medications. He told her he already gave me everything he could find that looked like it was my meds. 2 hours AFTERWARD, this showed up at my hotel. Filled to the brim with my meds. Still missing 2 prescriptions. https://t.co/9k7NJiVdYz — PolitiTweet.org

I didn't even get to say my statement to the judge! I don't have my meds and she refused to do anything at all. She just said we are gonna have to work that out ourselves. I can't even contact him via his attorney. How am I supposed to get my meds?! — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

@libbyarnold @Mizzou Thank you. That's validating to hear. My father is an expert at playing the victim…He's genuinely convinced himself that he attacked me in self-defense!! 🙃 in reality he overheard me talking to my bro, didn't like what I said, came into the room screamed @ me & injured my wrist — PolitiTweet.org

It's been 2 weeks since I reported my dad's assault & battery. They took pic of my injured wrist, see below @ColumbiaPD, why hasn't Dr Joe Muscato been arrested? My brother, his son, a CPD police detective, has kept this hidden for 20 years. I want to go home to my bed & my cat https://t.co/LOABLPKK7e — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

I'm in so much pain right now. I can barely stand up with a cane. I have to use the cane on the wrong side, because my dad injured my right wrist. @Mizzou, this guy is a professor at your med school. Do you really want to be associated with someone like this? — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

They just set a hearing for January 4 and that's it. The ex parte order of protection is still in effect. My father, a doctor, is so controlling and abusive that he is refusing to give me my Rx meds while I'm recovering from back surgery alone in a hotel to escape his violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

I'm about to go to court for this order of protection hearing against my abusive father. Wish me luck. I wasn't able to get an attorney because he has control over my bank account. I'm 38 and we have a joint account! He's so controlling, it's sickening. I just had back surgery! — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

How about another? I've got loads of these. Here's my dad the @Mizzou med school professor SCREAMING for 11 minutes at his wife for using coupons for grocery shopping, while I beg him to stop scaring us & throwing things: #TriggerWarning: #DomesticAbuse https://t.co/uefRKdYOh0 — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

How about another one? Here's me begging him to stop screaming at me about my mobility disabilities and blaming me for having chronic pain: https://t.co/aWbHv4AZJE He should NOT be teaching med students @Mizzou. Listen to him! #TriggerWarning: #DomesticViolence — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

He's SCREAMING at his wife for 20 min about spending on groceries. He's a multimillionaire. He has season tickets to @MizzouWBB. He drives a $70k @BMW. He wears a $22k @patekphillipe wristwatch. His house is 5,000 ft² w/a 2-car garage. Listen to all the gaslighting! Wow. Tw: DV — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

It's financial abuse. He knows by controlling me like this, I can't leave. He wants me stuck so he can blame me for his problems. He screams constantly & throws things. I have 100 hours of audio proof Here's a sample: SCREAMING for 20 min about food: https://t.co/q6VxlUxoF8 — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

I can't even hire my own lawyer to go to court with me today, because he has control over my checking account. I'm 38!! Why does he have access to my checking account at all?! He gets alerts on his phone whenever I use my card. My cell phone is in his name. My car insurance too. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

We're in the same town. He could have mailed my meds 3 times by now. Dr Muscato is attempting to damage my credibility for court this morning at 9a. He won't give me my clothes! I said I need them for court & he won't do it! I've been wearing the same clothes for 2 weeks now. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

He has also been withholding meds i need to recover from my recent back surgery in order to damage my physical & mental health, maliciously & in bad faith. He's been making excuses for WEEKS about why he hasn't given me back my Rx controlled meds. He doesn't want me to have them — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

By the way, Dr Joe Muscato is also a part time professor at @Mizzou @mumedicine & major gifts donor to @MizzouAlumni. I've reached out to @MULGBTQ Center about investigating. He should not be teaching. He's violent, transphobic, & corrupt. He's a domestic abuser. I have proof. — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

Dr Joe Muscato attempted to bribe me to stop me from testifying against him in criminal court. Amazingly, he did this in writing. Why isn't he in jail? — PolitiTweet.org

Danielle Muscato (she/her) @DanielleMuscato

This has been going on for 17 years. I have 100+ hours of audio because I know he lies & he's corrupt. This dude offered me $10k *while* claiming HE'S the victim of domestic abuse, that he hurt me in self-defense. Even though I have the whole thing recorded. — PolitiTweet.org
