This is Rep. Cornell du Houx’s statement in his press release revealing what he could not say because of the secret agreement they signed:
I was unable to release the texts and emails proving Erin's allegations were false because of our agreement. Now that the agreement was published I am free to talk about the temporary order. I never had a chance to respond to the temporary order in the media because of the scheduled hearing. I would like to have an opportunity for the truth to be heard.
The state police ended their investigation before Erin and I signed the agreement and did not see the need to interview me.
If we had gone to a hearing I would have countered all her allegations in the temporary order.
Almost no temporary order get reported on in the press before a hearing because they are one persons allegations. The hearing with the judge is meant to validate if the information is true. Because the information was made public by the media before the police investigation or court had a chance to determine if the accusations had any merit I believe it is only fair that I get to point out inaccuracies in the temporary order. If anyone attempted to verify the allegations and/or waited until the court hearing, the story would have been very different. It probably would have been about an investigation by the state police that ultimately ended without the police even needing to interview me.
Many combat veterans were upset by her allegations that inferred I must have a mental disability because of my service as a Marine in Iraq. As an army veteran Mark Ludzack stated in a letter in the Bangor Daily News about their coverage, “It made it seem that anyone who fights for our country may have a mental disability.”
She claimed I was suicidal and that my mental state was “deteriorating” and then she proceeded to tie those allegations to my service record by stating, “he claims to have killed as a Marine,” and, “he is wiling to use his military training tactics to prove his innocence.” My medical records had to be released to the press to counter her claims, as they proved that I have a clean bill of health.
She stated in the temporary order our relationship stared in late 2011. In reality we began seeing each other on May 15, 2011, and were engaged on December 23, 2011. I broke off the engagement on March 26, 2012 because she seriously breached my trust. So, I asked for my ring back, and she turned on me with the temporary order after our lawyers were already talking. I believe she wanted to silence me from talking about that breach.
I am sad this has turned out this way, and I wish Erin the best in her future endeavors.
Examples that counter some of her lies in the temporary order:
The photo named "Erin's texts" is one example of the kind of texts she wrote to me during the timeframe that she claimed, “I have been concerned for my safety for the last several months and am terrified now.” In texts she asked to go to DC on a romantic vacation, wanted to see my new apartment, agreed to attend couples counseling and said she loved me and, "wanted us to move forward together forever more than everything."
Erin claimed I moved things in our apartment. The reality is that in March I had to get Emily Cain, minority leader in the House, to ask Erin to return my possessions from our apartment in Belfast, as Erin would not respond to my request. Emily Cain also told Erin I wanted my ring back as Erin never returned it. The attached text is a conversation with Emily asking if I finally got my possessions back. Emily: "Did you get your stuff?" Alex: “Yes - Thank you, she had Megan bring it to me - my car looks like I'm moving."
The photo named "broken engagement" is an email to Erin from me asking for the engagement ring back on March 26: "I can't even believe I am saying this an email but your lack of communication leaves me no other option: I am asking tragically for my ring back and to call off the engagement." She never returned the ring.
The provision in the agreement that involved my family not releasing photos or making statements was to gag them from showing family photos of us together with Erin at her summer camp, Thanksgiving and Christmas as well as talking about our long term relationship, for they knew Erin well. Establishing the length of time we were involved counters one of the many lies in her temporary order. The engagement ring proves we were not just lovers. I also have texts that show we planned a life together.
If you would like additional documentation proving her allegations are false please contact me. These are just a few examples of her statement to me which disprove her allegations.
