Michael Robertson forced to relive past trauma with step-daughter's assault in 2009!
https://amandabacolas.com/phillip-menting
Michael Robertson survived the abuse of having his youngest daughter, Jennifer Bacolas, the victim of grotesque sexual molestation by pedophile, Ed Stoffers in 1998. As a sick twist of fate, in 2009, Michael's step-daughter, Kalin Wynn, was brutally raped by registered sex offender, Phillip Menting, now serving a 35 year sentence in Arizona for that crime.
When Kalin Wynne was taken into protective custody by the Mesa, Arizona, police department and the Arizona Department of Child Safety, issues arose surrounding placement into her biological mother's home (Twalla Robertson) due to substance and alcohol abuse issues with Twalla Robertson.
In 2009, Michael Robertson was vetted, again, by DCS as a fit and proper parent for placement of Kalin Wynne after this horrible incident of sexual abuse by a registered sex offender. This crime occurred while under Kalin's biological father's care, David Wynne of Mesa, Arizona. David Wynne left Kalin in Phillip Menting's care while he traveled to California to perform work for a client for his business, Dental Computer Solutions, LLC.
David Wynne: Absent Father
While under her biological father's care, David Wynne, David left his elementary school age daughter alone with a known registered sex offender from Tennessee while he went to California for the weekend. The girl, Kalin Wynne, was brutally raped and an adult who came to her assistance was also assaulted.
MICHAEL ROBERTSON THE ONLY ADVOCATE FOR KALIN WYNNE
History of Phillip Menting, David Wynne & Twalla Robertson
Twalla Robertson was involved with David Wynne as the biological father of Kalin Wynne while she lived in Memphis, Tennessee.
David Wynne was life long best friends of Phillip Menting.
Twalla Robertson had a history of chronic drug and alcohol abuse. She met David Wynne at an Alcoholics Anonymous recovery group and she later gave birth to their only child, Kalin.
It was reported that Phillip Menting disclosed his pedophilia in front of David and Twalla at an AA meeting in Memphis. Twalla Robertson was adamant that Phillip had no contact with their infant daughter, Kalin, but David objected as Phillip Menting was his best friend.
Twalla Robertson left David Wynne to protect her daughter from a presumed sex offender (Phillip Menting was not registered at this time).
Twalla became incarcerated in prison and lost custody of Kalin Wynne after her mother (and Kalin's grandmother) Faye Larue Kee (Faye Larue Gamble) refused to care for Kalin and gave the child to David Wynne.
Phillip Menting had contact with Kalin Wynne as a young child in Tennessee while under David Wynne's care, but it was not determined if any sexual assaults occurred prior to the violent rape in 2009.
Twalla Robertson relocated to Phoenix, Arizona, to rebuild her relationship with her daughter after leaving prison. David Wynne remained the custodial parent with visitation granted to Twalla Robertson, until the sexual assault in 2009.
Michael Robertson was vetted as the fit and proper parent for Kalin Wynne and remained secure and in his care until adulthood.
Michael Robertson reliving the tragedy of 1998
The brutal rape of step daughter Kalin Wynne was a horrific and tragic event for the family and Michael Robertson in particular.
Having to deal with this tragedy compounded the trauma he experienced in 1998 with the sexual assault of his own daughter, Jennifer Bacolas, at the hands of Ed Stoffers (his first wife's boyfriend at the time).
Furthermore, Michael Robertson's own adolescent children were suffering symptoms of severe mental illness from the child abuse caused by their own mother's neglect, which compounded the family trauma in 2009.
Jennifer Marie Bacolas, youngest daughter of Michael Robertson, was sexually molested by boyfriend Ed Stoffers, while under her mother's care (as validated through CPS records, the Glendale Police Department in Arizona, and audio tape sessions with trauma counselor Rochelle Silverman (evidentiary documents available upon request). Consequently, Michael Robertson was made the custodial parent of Jennifer and her siblings and the mother, Julia Bacolas (aka Julie Stoffers, aka Julie Allor) fled Phoenix and the joint custody of her common children to protect Edward Stoffers from questioning and the eventual prosecution for this assault.
Due to Twalla Robertson's issues with drug and alcohol abuse and the apathy of David Wynne, Michael Robertson became the primary parent and father figure to Kalin Wynne during the remainder of her childhood and adolescence.
Twalla Robertson refused Kalin Wynne's trauma counseling
Kalin Wynne was given the opportunity to receive trauma counseling for the rape, provided through the Mesa Police Department victims program and through the Arizona Department of Child Safety.
Twalla Robertson was highly concerned that her daughter would malign her to behavioral health providers for her abusive relationship with Kalin (and with the older Bacolas children), Twalla's continued drug abuse, and her chronic undeterred alcoholism.
As a consequence of protecting Twalla Robertson's reputation, the mother resisted obtaining counseling for her daughter's assault.
As a retired counselor working with children and families, Michael Robertson provided behavioral health interventions in the home to Kalin Wynne. Michael also enlisted a former colleague, who worked as a clinical liaison to behavioral health for the State of Arizona, to provide counseling in the home for a period of time.
Failure of the Mesa Police Department
An investigation of the incident involving Phillip Menting uncovered a traffic stop a month prior to the rape by the Mesa Police Department.
At this stop by Mesa Police, David Wynne and Phillip Menting were checked for identification and warrants, routine procedure for all police stops.
The officer determined that Phillip Menting was a registered sex offender from Tennessee, but he had not registered in the State of Arizona as a sex offender.
It is a felony in the state of Arizona not to register as a sex offender and disclose one's address and all people living at the residence.
Phillip Menting was not arrested for this failure to register and he was released by the Mesa Police officer on a promise that he would register.
Philllip Menting never registered in the State of Arizona as a registered sex offender out of Tennessee.
Had the Mesa Police officer done his duty and arrested Phillip Menting for the felony of failing to register, he would have been on probation, given a probation officer, and the fact that a little girl was living at his stated residence would not have been allowed.
By failing to arrest Phillip Menting for failure to register, a little girl was raped because the State of Arizona had no knowledge of his address or that he was living at a home with a minor child.
Michael Robertson contacted several tort attorneys in Arizona to bring a civil action against the Mesa Police department for negligence and causing this rape by not executing a lawful arrest at that traffic stop.
Unfortunately, because of "gross negligence standards" protecting the police department, Kalin's step father learned that such a civil suit would be in vain and the family would most likely not prevail with a settlement.
Negligence of David Wynne and civil action
David Wynne was the biological father of Kalin Wynne and was negligent for leaving his minor daughter in the care of a known registered sex offender.
After receiving custody of Kalin, Michael Robertson contacted a tort attorney to sue David Wynn for negligence in causing the rape of his minor daughter, on behalf of Kalin Wynne.
A background check on David Wynne's assets showed little to no liquidity...no assets to speak of. He had very little equity in his Mesa home. Also, David had no homeowner's insurance, which would have been a source for funding a civil settlement for the rape his negligence caused.
With no assets to seize, Michael Robertson dropped pursuing legal action for the tort of negligence against David Wynne for causing the rape of his daughter, Kalin.
Kalin Wynne's abusive relationship with Twalla Robertson
From the onset of gaining custody of Kalin Wynne after the sexual assault, Twalla Robertson had an abusive and contentious relationship with her daughter.
Twalla's animosity towards her daughter was grounded in Kalin's reports to DCS investigators of her mother's drug and alcohol abuse at the time of placement after the rape in 2009.
Twalla Robertson also had aggression towards her daughter for her continuous defense of her biological father's responsibility exposing Kalin to the sex offender who caused the sexual assault. It is common for a daughter of abuse to cling to the neglectful parent who caused the assault in the first place:

Throughout Kalin's adolescence, Michael Robertson provided a loving and stable home environment for his step daughter, notwithstanding the abusive relationship Kalin endured with Twalla Robertson.
Michael protected Kalin Wynne from physical attacks from Twalla Robertson, downplayed her mother's verbal and emotional abuse through humor, and protected Kalin from consequences of behavior that was rooted in trauma from the sexual assault.
Kalin vandalized neighbors homes with spray paint, broke windows, and was caught at school with marijuana (given to her by her step-sister, Amanda Bacolas, to make brownies and dole out to students in high school).
Michael Robertson protected his step daughter from abuse from her mother and the consequences of behavior rooted in her 2009 assault by Phillip Menting.
Michael took Kalin Wynne in as his own and showed love and compassion towards a little girl who had the misfortune of having been given dysfunctional biological parents.
The family's DCS Involvement 2009 - 2017
Between 2009 and 2017, the family had DCS involvement due to Twalla Robertson's continued alcohol and substance abuse issues, failure to adequately monitor her children while the father was out of the home, and issues with Michael's severely mentally ill older children.
Approximately 11 times during this period, Kalin Wynne was pulled out of school by DCS case workers, interviewed without notice, and on each report, Kalin confirmed that Michael Robertson was a fit, safe, and non abusive parent to her and her two little brothers.
In 2016 and 2017, the family participated in two family preservation programs through DCS from "issues" and reports made regarding the mother, Twalla Robertson.
Kalin was interviewed during both programs, as was her two little brothers. No reports of maltreatment or abuse were made against Michael Robertson by his children.
The Arizona Department of Child Safety fully vetted Michael Robertson as a fit and safe parent for Kalin and her two little brothers, two more times, with his successful completion of the family preservation program and no valid reports of maltreatment were made against the father.
Kalin moved out of the Robertson home upon her 18th birthday to distance herself from the abusive relationship with her mother, Twalla Robertson.
Miranda, Doug, and Marilyn
During Kalin Wynne's adolescence, she became close friends with a schoolmate by the name of Miranda.
Kalin became very close with Miranda and her parents, Doug and Marilyn.
Doug and Marilyn were acutely aware of the contentious relationship between Twalla Robertson and her daughter.
On several occasions, Michael Robertson discussed the possibility of Kalin moving in and living with Miranda and her family. Michael's resistance was for selfish reasons: he needed Kalin in the home to protect himself from the constant barrage of verbal and mental abuse by his substance abusing wife and Kalin provided that level of protection. He also needed his step daughter in the home to help with the children, as Twalla Robertson's "issues" prevented her from normal parenting duties, which Kalin helped out with while Michael worked to support the family.
If Kalin was a victim of abuse in the Robertson home, which Michael prevented regarding her relationship with Twalla, then Miranda's family would have been the first to know. Had any level of abuse occurred with the Robertson babies or Kalin, Doug and Marilyn would have stepped in and taken Kalin, as it was their ongoing intent to have her live with their family.
Doug and Marilyn would have been told of any abuse or maltreatment by Kalin Wynne regarding Robertson in the home. They were never told of any maltreatment by Michael Robertson, as none ever occurred.
Kalin Wynne's maladaptive relationship with the Bacolas siblings
Kalin was basically a loner as an adolescent. She had a limited number of friends and her main social interactions outside her schoolmates were with her severely mentally ill siblings, the older Bacolas children.
These were not healthy interactions, as a survivor of sexual abuse with mental health issues herself, exposure to severely mentally ill narcissists (who were victims of on ongoing menticide by their own mother) perpetrated behavioral health issues with Kalin as a matter of association.
Kalin moved in with her siblings after leaving the Robertson home and later was admitted to a mental institution, following the suicide of Amy Powell in 2019, the adult friend of the family who came to her aid and was also assaulted by Phillip Menting in 2009.
Fear of Robertson Babies Contact with their mother Twalla
Before the dependency that was scheduled in August, 2020, Kalin Wynn gave inflammatory, untrue, and impeachable testimony to DCS regarding the fitness of Michael Robertson as a parent.
The overall consensus was that if Michael had custody of the minor children, that Twalla Robertson would have contact and ultimately reunite with her husband, thereby exposing the children to her substance abuse and apathetic parenting.
Kalin Wynne jumped on the bandwagon of defamation and slander of a good man to keep the boys from having contact with their mother. Therefore, she will also be listed as a litigant in the matters presented on this website, as her slander and defamation spilled out of court and into the community.
Michael remained in the marriage to Twalla Robertson for several reasons. First, he was a single father of the Bacolas children and did not want a repeat of his minor children being raised motherless. Second, Twalla Robertson, although showed apathetic parenting towards her boys and was abusive to her own daughter and the Bacolas children, was never abusive to her minor children.
The Robertson babies were very attached to their mother. Although Twalla Robertson had many character deficits due to her alcohol and substance abuse issues, she loved her boys and showed it. The boys loved their mother tremendously. That is the reason Michael Robertson stayed in that marriage.
