On the 4th of July, the entire family got together at the pool and spent the day swimming, eating hot dogs and hamburgers, and just enjoying each other's company. But little did they know, their life was about to change forever when another man entered into Michelle's life.

But after their breakup, she was longing for some companionship. So in the summer of 2016, Michelle visited the online dating website called Plenty of Fish.

And after looking through his pictures, Michelle thought he was attractive. So that night, the two started a conversation on the dating website.

Now under the conditions of his probation, Fabian was ordered to go to counseling, he was supposed to have random drug and alcohol testing, and supervised home visits. And I'm sure at first when Fabian was put on probation, he followed the rules. But months and months would pass and no one ever came checking on him.

no random visits no drug tests or anything by 2016 he had been on probation for an entire year with no visits from his parole officer now the department of corrections would later be confronted about this and they said that they never received any documentation that he was required to be supervised so for that whole year they were supposed to be keeping an eye on him they weren't

So after a year of this, Fabian realized that he was pretty much free to do whatever he wanted. He was able to move from home to home without checking in with anyone. And he was free to use drugs. His favorite being methamphetamine. Now Fabian would later say that upon moving in with Michelle, things were going fine. And luckily for him, he was being spoiled by his new girlfriend.
