How many times have I wished I could wake up and realize it was only a bad dream and not an actual, atrocious act taking the life of my young brother in law?! Let the truth be heard! #istandwithjohn
Incredibly well written. My husband is a victim of parental alienation, this story has ached my soul since it happened, it hit especially close to home because my family has been blessed to be friends with the Mast Family, as well as John. I knew both of them growing up, specifically Rebecca. It's a tragic even, such a disgrace that another human treated someone like this for the sake of her own agenda and game. Thank you for speaking the truth! I have been saying her name and will continue to say her name, she needs to pay for what she has done. My heart hurts for everyone involved. I pray for peace for the family, and justice for John. #istandwithjohn
Thank you for writing this article on my brother in law and helping to get the truth out there as well as working to bring awareness to many similar situations.
Thank you so very much Mr Putman! John was my brother, and I want to thank you profusely on behalf of the whole Mast clan for all the work you've put into this. This was very well wrote,we appreciate your help so much in diff.ways, words cant express....
I could have been John Mast. There by the grace of God go I. More or less the same story except with the threat of being shot by a police officer in-law. I believe I only escaped that by moving abroad. It took them 3 years to conclude their "criminal" investigation. Live to fight another day!
I am an alienated parent not in the same situation as most as it is my In-laws that are the alienation team my mother in-law and sister in-law. They first tried to force my husband to divorce me. After this failed 24 trips to Divorce court later reconciled got two years. Ow. They used their own lies to get Guardianship of our youngest child. Who has refused any contact with his mother for over two years now. My husband has had brain cancer twice and other major health problems.
They only allow very short visits with my husband and my oldest son only recently has gotten visits with his brother. There is an estate worth millions that is at the core of this fight. There are in control of it. It should belong to all of us. It does but they won’t allow it!!! Over 100 trips to court so far!!!
I just finished watching the documentary about John, and it broke my heart anew. I have not seen my child in 10 years. I have not had any contact with her but I am sure that my ex has painted me in the blackest of black paint whenever and wherever she could. I too had been arrested on numerous occassions, usually when it was my time to visit, and the charges and accussations where of similar nature, including abuse and contempt of court. I had become well-known at the police station and the local court, every single time the outcome would be the same - case dismissed. But yet my ex gets away with it every time. My prayers go out to John's beautiful children, the road ahead is not going to be easy for them. Their mother's goal had been achieved, the children as young enough to be brainwashed - I won't be surprised if she'll change her tactics as they grow older, and twist the truth or keep it away from them entirely so much so that the truth will go with her to the grave, leaving the children to think that their mother had nothing to do with John's murder at all. I pray for wisdom and justice to prevail, that the children will learn the truth in such a way that their pain will be minimal and that their mother will suffer as much as possible. To John's family I pray that they continue to fight the good fight, to keep his candle burning as inspiration to every parent around the globe that suffers the same injustice. To Rebecca, you will get what you deserve, perhaps not in this life on earth, God does not sleep, He knows everything and I hope that when you go to sleep at night that you will be haunted by the truth of your selfish actions and the hurt and pain and damage that you have brought about in your children's lives. One day you will wake up, alone and unloved, hated by the ones that you were gifted. Your pain will never leave you in peace.
I found this story yesterday and this is the only site that has mentioned the mother. How is she not responsible for his death, how come she’s not charged with a crime, and how in gods name are the children still with her??? SMH
This article is completely true. I knew, John. John was one of the nicest, most gentle man i have ever met. I doubt if he ever even yelled at another human being. He worked several jobs simultaneously to save for this court battle. John and I had a few things in common, we were both fighting to see our children during the same time period, Both had sons the same age, and they even had the same name. We would encourage each other to keep fighting even when he was hit with lie after lie. John loved his children immensely. That is all he thought about, all he worked for, his only focus in life was to have them back in his life. There were many nights he was so sad and devastated by what he was facing, yet he was not the kind of father that would walk away nor give up hope. I am just heartbroken to think how happy he must have been the day he was murdered. 3 years of fighting, having his name and character assassinated by a narcissist with borderline personality disorder. This man, this loving father, finally beating the worst battle of his life, finally receiving justice, finally about to see his dream come true, only to never cross the finish line. To be murdered in cold blood. He was such a good kind-hearted person I bet he never saw it coming.
My late husband went through something similar; spending thousands in court. However, our difference was that I was the bad guy (his ex-wife made the allegations of abuse against me, his current wife). The accusations were absurd, e.g., I gave OUR daughter more mashed potatoes than THEIR daughter (we ate family style, I didn't serve up the dishes on their plates), I asked her to bring her socks back the next time she came to visit that I bought when she visited because I had to buy socks every time she came (didn't think that was abusive) and I could go on and on. She literally got laughed out of conciliation when she brought up these allegations....but he had to spend the money to defend himself, and did. She was on welfare so her attorneys were free; at one point his attorney felt bad (he needed a liver transplant and knew we were struggling and started to take his cases pro-bono so that tells you how ridiculous his ex-wife was). Some dads really get screwed over; this story made me angry and sad at the same time. My late husband was named John, as well. I am sorry if this was your friend. I am sorry to his entire family and yes, Lies Destroy Lives. I am glad you are shedding light on this issue!!!!
Thank you for this article! But I believe you have a typo. It says he was murdered on February 5, 2021. But then further down, it says February 5, 2020. Just trying to help! 🥰🙏🏻
