~laintiff
Personally appeared the above named Plaintiff and oath to the truth of the statements in the above
complaint, before me,

Date: 6/6/08
_Cl~n
I am seeking an order for protection from abuse against my husband, Igor Malenko, on
behalf of our daughter, Mila, because I am very afraid for her safety based his history of
physically abusing me with Mila in my arms and without regard to her safety, throwing
things at me that could easily have hit her instead, again without regard to her safety,
delusions he has suffered at times that cause me to be concerned about his ability to
safely care for her when he is one of those states, and his even mistaking her for the dog
on one occasion while in a state.

My fear and request for protection are based in part on the following history:

Igor has a long history of violence, not just against me but against others. At the age of
16, he knocked a classmate into a coma and was ordered to obtain psychological
treatment. After that, Igor suffered incredible atrocities that are not his fault, but that
have left him even more dangerous. He was a member of the JNA, the Yugoslav
National Army, and was severely tortured in the Balkan war, which was known for its
~"L.~ ~L.~L~l~LJ' .'~~ ~.~~~lL, 1.~ ~~ r' 11(")I(")01(,.l'Il
nl('.nl'l-rl)"A
l'Inn DAnTTlrnAln l'I
psychiatric hospital, and has been diagnosed subsequently with PTSD by True North. I
also believe he suffers from bipolar disorder, although I am not certain whether there has
ever been a formal diagnosis. There has not been one here, but might have been one in
Yugoslavia.

When Igor has been in manic states, he has, among other things, thrown things at me,
even when I have been holding the baby and nursing the baby, slapped me very hard, also
while I was nursing our baby, and thrown a jar at my head. While we were living in
Budapest last year, he also repeatedly threatened to kill me, forcing me to flee the country
where I had a tenure track academic position. At other times, when Igor is not in a manic
state, he can seem quite fine, and I have repeatedly taken him back based on promises he
would seek appropriate help or treatment, was sorry, would not behave that way again,
and also based on my feeling that my daughter needs her father in her life but that her
safety could only be assured by my being there as well.

Igor is once again in a manic state, and I am very fearful what he might do. Just two
weeks ago, he forced open my bedroom door (which I had blocked) while my daughter
and I were asleep, terrifying me, demanding to kiss our sleeping daughter, and making
threats if I do anything to "take his daughrer" fmrn him l-iA t1;t1 n(")tnA('.;fvmbt hA
would do, but based on the past specific threats to kill me and past violence during manic
attacks, I am extremely concerned by these threats. Also, while the threats were phrased
in a conditional way of "if I" did something, he has a history of misperceiving situations
and could take almost anything as an effort to ''take his daughter," including this
Complaint, especially now that I am seeking protection on our daughter's behalf, which I
was trying to avoid on the advice of counsel in order to avoid triggering him if I could
otherwise provide for her safety.

Without a protection from abuse order, I do not believe that my daughter will be safe or
that anything will keep him from grabbing Our daughter since he has made it clear that he
intends to do exactly that if there is only an order with respect to me that does not
expressly apply to our daughter. Even with a protection from abuse order, I will be very
nervous for Mila's safety because Igor's actions tend not to be premeditated but instead
impulsive. But the order should ensure an ability for supervised contact that will permit
her to be safe while ensuring they are still able to have contact and maintain a
relationship.
