The only insight into these events was given to us by the media.
I’d like to thank Geoffrey John Wells for taking the time write us and share his account of what happened.
The following is a letter is from Geoffrey, unedited, uncensored and pasted in its entirety.
To Whom it May Concern,
My name is Geoffrey John Wells and I am the father of Syber Austin Wells who was my 12 year old son who committed suicide in Henderson August 26, 2005. On December 14, 2006 I was also involved in a fight inside the courtroom of Judge Cheryl Moss in the Family Courthouse between myself and numerous Bailiffs.
There has been nothing but disinformation and flat out lies by certain individuals, some of them from my ex-wife and her family, but most certainly on the part of state officials. I’m going to give you the truth of what has happened, and it should become apparent the there is a massive cover-up with deceit and criminal behavior on the part of Child Protective Services, the Coroners Investigator, Henderson Police, Las Vegas Metro, the District Attorney Office and most certainly Court Bailiffs. The corruption is staggering, but if any one with common sense investigated, these lies would be easily apparent, and furthermore provable. This has all been allowed do to Lies, False Reports, and False Video.
September 16, 1991 I met Maria Wells who was 25 and had a son who was 5. When I met her she was on welfare and did not have a drivers license. She was very sweet and considerate and had a few years where raising a son on her own had been more than she could handle on her own. All she needed was direction and what I felt someone to love her and her son. We quickly moved in together and 13 months later married. I became a Father to her son, and even though I was not the sperm donor, became the only DAD and only Father her son and my boy knew.
She quickly got a drivers license at my insistance and then on her own a job as a CNA. She had all kinds of potential, just not the opportunity to develop it. I wanted her to live a productive life as a human being, working for a living instead of being constrained by poverty and government oversight. I was very proud of her and truly loved her.
In December 1992 I deployed to Somalia Africa, she was pregnant with our son Syber. Somalia was my 3rd Deployment around the world and second into a combat zone. Somalia was the most dangerous country I had ever been in at that time. Fortunately I had excellent officers in charge there, and they had no problem disregarding policy dictated by the Pentagon and Clinton Administration that would have otherwise endangered the 1783 Marines and Sailors who were there. In the end one Marine was a KIA, his name was Brian Bottello. All of us felt deeply his death, and took appropriate action after his death to insure that there would be no repeat. Had we followed policy of the Pentagon and Clinton Administration the tragedy that befell the United States Army later that year in 1993 would have happened to us. The reason this did not happen is the Marine Task Force Commander, Colonel Patterson had the balls to tell higher ranking people they were wrong and did not understand the situation there. All the Marines and Sailors there owe their lives to this Colonel who had no problem listening and acting on information that could come even from a Private. This common sense approach started unfortunately after Brian Bottello’s death. However the Somalian Warlords soon, quickly, and with finality learned not to challenge the Marines presence, this all do to Exceptional Leadership of the Commissioned Officers and their actions of all who were there. In defiance of orders from the Pentagon and the Clinton Administration our Colonel kept Tanks, Armored Amphibious Vehicles and Cobra Gunships in support of defense and operations. Had policy dictated by the Pentagon and the Clinton Administration been followed we would have lost all these assets and been forced to use Humv’s or just manpower, neither designed for modern Heavy Combat. Our fate would have been the same as the United States Army had not the Colonel put his men and the mission ahead of policy. The Colonel is a man of integrity and allowed me to request a Specter Gunship, it was however denied by the Pentagon. I will always be grateful to Colonel Patterson and the excellent junior officers under his command for their leadership in that forgotten country.
Even with the Marines doing things right, we all witnessed travesties against human life, dictated by the citizens of Somalia and their CIVIL WAR. Some of us did see more than others, it certainly had its times of Brutality. In this war torn land, the Marine Corps was the only stabilizing force that managed any semblance of morality and dignity.
Upon returning statside in March of 1993, our newborn son was almost 6 weeks old, and coming from a land of death, destruction and famine holding him in my hands showed me what life was all about. Within 4 years we had two more sons, bringing our family to a total of 4 sons. Every time I looked at her she got pregnant, that was not a bad thing.
The marriage between me and Maria was strained be the actions of a certain individual who had made a sexual advance towards her. She did nothing wrong, however at the time I was unaware of this individuals actions. I do not blame her for leaving in 1994, we did reconcile however when I left active duty, putting the past behind us.
We eventually ended up settling in the Las Vegas Valley and lived in Henderson starting in 1996. All of our boys were extremely smart and physically fit. They all enjoyed school and were extremely competitive in sports. Of all our boys, Syber was always a leader and extremely gifted with an exceptional mind and drive that never quit. He as a baby use to have a fascination with lining all his toys up in perfect lines, this attention to detail was always part of him. It was reflected with straight A’s all through school. He was in accelerated classes and his wit was extremely quick. Every soccer team and football team he ever played for always had the best record at the end of the season, due in part to his unselfish play and competitive nature. He played with integrity, sportsmanship and always gave 100 percent, he was an example of what all sons should strive to be. This was how he did everything, and how he lived his life. He never knew the meaning of the word fail.
All of his brothers exhibit these qualities, and I love every one of them equally, however this is about Syber. I certainly do not want the perception that I treated them differently, I treated them all the same. Sybers brothers strengths are in their own ways, and have made me an extremely proud father.
For various reasons my their mothers marriage disintegrated in 2004. I will say this, at no time during our marriage or ever, did I slap, hit, or in any intentional way ever physically harm Maria Wells during 13 years, 3 months, and 19 days of marriage. The police were called once in our marriage to our residence in 29 Palms, California. I called them for Maria was acting irrational, they made her leave. I now know the reason for her being upset, I am truly sorry for not being able to help her during a time when she needed it.
There has been the accusation that I broke her wrist during an argument, and this is false. When her wrist was broken it was in bed during an intimate moment, I grabbed her to hard. There was no maliciousness behind this and any other account is a lie! At the time she worked for a Doctor, I assure you they asked her the same thing, and she told them the same thing I’m telling you. This accusation was brought upon by lies from her, her family and spoken of openly from her attorney. The never was any physical violence by me towards her and if she wanted to leave I told her not to let the door hit her in the ass on her way out. This was my kids home, my home, and hers if she wanted it. She left by choice, not fear. I sure as hell did not want her their if she didn’t want to be there.
January, 2005 I was forced to file for divorce from her when she left and stole the kids. She filed a bogus restraining order, however she stayed at my residence for days while supposidly being fearful. This was done out of maliciousness, and her attorneys advice. She had no moral reason nor legal reason to keep our sons from me. This was all done for the sake of winning a divorce, like there truly is a winner. Her lies, and familys were shown to be false in court and the restraining order quashed.
When she was young her mother and father went through a divorce and executed with extreme antagonism, destroying each other in the process. It is very clear to me this is how she thinks and her family that divorces should be conducted, and found an attorney with the same attitude. There are some things in life not worth winning at any cost, sometimes the cost is higher than a person anticipates. The cost of this divorce has no dollar amount that will ever be actual to what was lost, our son. There is a certain amount of irony in the name “Family Court”; it should be called what it is;”Destruction of the Family”. In this Maria, her family and lawyer acted and conducted themselves in a manner with no honesty, integrity, or truthfulness again for the sake of supposidly “winning at any cost”. Perhaps they don’t believe in a higher power at the end of their days who will judge their actions, it is unfortunate. They forgot there was 4 kids also involved, and my sons well being was forgotten in their quest for victory and the TRUTH was sacrificed. I’ll say this, neither myself nor my attorney conducted ourselves in this malicious manner, the same can not be said for them.
I did not hire an attorney until after my first court proceeding when she showed up with one, clearly having an agenda and plan. It was clear this had been planned for some time. Filing for divorce was not an action I had wanted to do, the reason I filed first is due to me being one person ahead of her lawyers runner in line at court.
Now this is where things start getting more complicated and the dishonesty takes on a whole new meaning. Maria’s attorney has a wife who works as an attorney for CPS. At the first court proceeding Maria was represented by not only her attorney, but this State lawyer for Nevada, aka CPS. Does this seem correct and lawful or should it be viewed as it is a conflict of interest and abuse of power. Susan Roske apparently does not believe it is nor do the Judges of the 8th Judicial District. This shows possible incompetence and certainly ignorance of all the Judges of the 8th Judicial District. Truly amazing how every Judge in “Family Court” overlooks this, clearly a conflict of interest, illegal, but law is not practiced by the “law experts”, opinion is, truly sad.
It was never my intention to take our boys from their mother. I wanted what I felt was fair to both of us and the kids. Her actions and conduct wouldn’t allow anything but total control, by and through actions she thought would gather sympathy from a judge. The hate and contempt from her and her family was staggering. This is verifiable by and through court transcripts, lies, lies, lies, to say the least I despise her and her family for their dishonesty, truth and honor they know nothing about.
Me and my sons loved firearms, and the boys grew up understanding everything there was to know about them. When they were to young to understand the responsibility of what respect firearms demand, the firearms were locked up when not in use. When my youngest showed total competence in firearms handling only then did they come out full time. My sons have shot between 20 to 30 thousand rounds, and are more competent with firearms than some Marines I have been to Combat with. My biggest fear of kids and guns is an accident through curiosity and no competent training. My boys were extremely well trained and knew nothing but total respect for firearms, understanding them as tools that if misused or use carelessly would result in death. With TOTAL competency they understood the Zero mistake attitude, there is no do over. This attitude even caught on with their mother who took up enjoying firearms and shooting. Contrary to the lies, deceit, and deceptions she enjoyed shooting and this anti-gun rhetoric was brought on by the belief that a judge again would be swayed by it, and for almost 9 months this had no effect on the court. Let me explain why my son chose to kill himself.
Maria’s boyfriend, a lowlife she allowed to live with her had some very cruel habits. He was a drug user, liked to hit my sons mother and beat my son. During the summer of 2005, my boy increasingly did not want to go back to his mothers apartment for her week. It was not fear of his mother but fear of her boyfriend. Unfortunately he did not tell me this, had he I would have personaly taken care of this lowlife. This lowlife increasingly took control of Sybers mother, to the point where the kids were not her priority.
One Friday when she was suppose to take the boys, she did not show at the Henderson police station for the exchange. I had requested this location from the court to protect myself from more false allegations. It was not until Sunday evening that I received a call of her whereabouts so that she could pick up my sons for her week. Having a weekend away with her boyfriend was more important to her than being with her sons. I told her she had her priorities mixed up, and after this I was left with no choice but to ask for full custody. I had warned her if she ever put her social life ahead of our boys, this would happen. I kept my word, and did what I believed to be the right thing. I was unable to explain to the boys why their mother could not pick them up, and told them to ask her themselves. There was no doubt in my mind where the boys wanted to be, and there was no doubt to their mother, they wanted to stay with me.
I had made a mistake with Syber when the divorce first started, and this ended up costing him his life. I made a grievous error in telling him that his mother was no longer my responsibility, and that he was going to have to be the man of the house when he was with his mother for her week. Syber had always taken on responsibility, and did take care of his mother and brothers. However, this 6′3″, 230 lb lowlife boyfriend beat Syber and his mother. Syber at 120lbs had no chance, and did not tell me what was happening because he thought it was his responsibility. I should have never have put that burden upon him, my mistake is partly responsible for the events that led to his death. This shortsightedness cost me my sons life, it is a lesson I hope no one else ever has to learn, so heed these words. Kids take some things litteraly during divorce.
The day of Syber’s death, was a Friday and the same day he had to return to his mothers. That morning before work, he told me he did not want to go back. I had told him I was doing everything I could through the courts, and that it would be handled at the next hearing. That morning he told me he was going to kill himself, I didn’t believe him and thought it was just a kid speaking out of frustration with no real meaning behind it. After talking with him for 10 minutes I only left when he was smiling and laughing, he said he was okay and I believed him. I told him when I got home we would talk some more.
For a long time after his death I thought that he had lied to me and that thought did not hurt nearly as bad as his death, but it persistently hounded me. It was around 8 months later that I fully understood what he meant. He was okay with the course of action he had decided on, my son had never lied to me and through his gifted mind come up with a way to do what he did by telling the truth. I truly miss his wit, humor and presence. He was an exceptional son and a fine human being, again an example of what all sons should strive to be. I understand now more than I did before of what prompted his suicide, no one wants to be tortured, and until it happens to you can you begin to fathom its pain. I should have stayed home from work that day and talked with him more and took him to court so he could personaly tell a Judge what he wanted.
Syber committed suicide 10 minutes before 7am, before my neighbor babysitter would have come over. He broke into the master-bed room, and committed suicide with a shotgun stored in there. At 7:25 am my attorney received a FAX from Mr. Roske stating that my son had shot himself with a gun and was dead. He said he would do everything in his power to insure I never seen my kids again. Enter Susan Roske, she informed him, she was at my house and through misrepresenting herself as a District Attorney for CPS and abusing power spearheaded the investigation from Henderson Detective Benjamins. Does this sound ethical, lawful, or correct. It is not.
I have filed a complaint with the State Bar against Susan Roske for this, but corruption sticks together and has many friends. The State Bars investigation was inconclusive, how can this be possible when Detective Benjamins told me personaly that Susan Roske was involved in the investigation. This shows either incompetence of the State Bar or criminal elements covering up a crime, Susan Roske denies being there, why dont you ask Detective Benjamins, the truth is there.
Now the false reports and lies start really flowing, this coming from Coroners Investigator Lester Elliot. On his investigaton of my sons death he states facts that are false and flat out filed a false report. Its no wonder that every cop shooting investigated by him has been “JUSTIFIED”. This man is a lowlife, and a simple outside investigation would show this absolute corruption to cover up evil conducted by other State paid employees. This of course would take an News agency to state facts and not sensationalism, unfortunately Las Vegas reporters seem to have a problem with reporting truth and facts. This policy has led to allowing Clark County officials unchecked power that has lead to the most brutal police force in the country. I hope this fact does not fall on DEAF ears. If you want to discuss this, I’ll show you some things, the rest you will have to do on your own. Truth does have a place. I dont fear it, I assure you there is a great many state paid employees and officials who do. These lies and false reports are to support an ANTI-GUN agenda, unethical conduct of State Attorney Susan Roske and CPS failure to protect my sons from an abusive person who resided in the household of my Ex-wife who was represented by her husband. Furthermore one of my guns was stolen by investigatorts that day, an AR-15, the lowlifes of the Henderson Police Force are criminals, career minded. All of this done under policy and guidance of the District Attorney and his associates to support a Political agenda. David Roger is a lowlife and has deliberately pursued this case as has both junior district attorneys in both of my cases brought on by them. This all for support of the Liberal Left Wing and its pure Anti-Gun agenda and support of Lesbian elements of CPS and Safe Nest in their incompetence in protecting children and support of their immoral lifestyles. They hate men and want to destroy familys.
The fight that happened in “Family Court” December 14, 2006 is a direct result of these lies, false reports, and deliberate criminal behavior. I didn’t start that fight, was tortured inside the family courthouse by its bailiffs, and have nothing but contempt for them. They are liars, brutalistic pigs, and very, very cruel. After 4 months between the fight and trial, they reshot video to cover up their evil doings. Any one with any computer can see this video is edited and fake.
If you are interested, please contact me at 702 – 218 – 7982 and I will discuss anything you want in person. I had to personally have the abuser and person responsible for making my son commit suicide arrested and put in prison. These State officials allowed this person to continue to live with my younger 2 sons until I found out the truth. Cover-ups all for the sake of political purposes and to hide the evil and wrong doings of others. This is not what is expected of Government and State paid employees. My name is Geoffrey John Wells.

In Spring Lake, North Carolina, Johni Michelle Heuser, 25, was charged with first-degree murder in the death of her 11-month-old daughter, Harmony Jude Creech. At first, the little girl was was reported missing by her grandmother – and an Amber Alert was released - after the girl’s father, Sgt. Ronald Earl Creech II, stopped by to see her. He had just returned that morning from Iraq with the 82nd Airborne Division.
