Once again, after living together and resuming their relationship, Joanna progressively got more out of control.

At that point, she started sleeping with tons of random men and women, bringing them home right in front of John and their two daughters.

She started getting piercings on her tongue and belly button.

She also got a green Pentagon star tattooed on her right cheek.

Then she got another tattoo on her arm that said Licking Legend, which was a reference to her sexuality, if you know what that is supposed to mean.

She also started to self-harm, including cutting herself all over her own abdomen.

She started sticking pins into her own skin and she would make herself bleed.

She would yell at her kids and make them feel as terrible as possible.

According to Cheyenne, she remembers these awful nights from the time that she was as young as five years old.

She remembered her mom being gone for days and weeks at a time.

She remembered one time when Joanna sent a man over to their home in the middle of the night to try to beat up John.

Joanna would come home with cuts and bites all over her body and sometimes she would have black eyes from getting into fights.

Cheyenne remembers Joanna yelling and screaming at John at all hours of the night.

She was absolutely out of control and nothing that anybody did could stop her.

This continued for another three years until 2009 when John finally realized that he needed to get his daughters away from this toxic monster.

There was one night where Joanna and John got into a massive argument while Joanna was absolutely hammered.

During that night, Joanna suddenly pulled out a six inch serrated dagger from her boot and plunged the knife into the carpet of their home while screaming, I wish I could effing kill someone.

At that time, John didn't even really know what Joanna was mad about, but this really scared him.

He thought that this was a massive red flag that he just could not ignore.

And he was afraid for the lives of himself and his daughters.
