This is my reply to you and this matter and will be my final one I am beginning to become annoyed at your attempt to threaten me with such bulshit, and I find it very insulting that you underestimate that I am not kidding you in the matter and am aware of the fact that I did nothing wrong.

Now this is my response to you and is also posted on facebook because I unlike you have nothing to lose I have been doing this for several years and I can assure you I have not stayed and maintained my role by acting out of character. This being said I gave you all of my information and I assure you that I do know what I am speaking about once again. Please stop contacting me as I have blocked Mr. Van from all my social media ps after you sent this email was not smart for him to start following me on instagram this is a primary example of things that you might want to know in your thirst for being accurate. I hope you have a nice day and I assure you that I am going to be reaching out to some of my friends up in Delaware who also do similar things like me and going to request that your rep contacts me to show you exactly the extent of how tolerable this is for your entire state and our recovery community I assure you this behavior is not in any way acceptable especially since you keep on trying to cause disturbance based on allegations and thinking you are able to manipulate this situation in your corner so I assure you as I stand you can contact whom you choose and while you are at it you can also check out the work that I was doing down in south florida like I said as well as other things we have uncovered within this community, the light always shines through the darkness and guess what sugar I am not being mean but you are not on my radar for me to care about, I have my own issues and problems and well I got folders that get compiled and I hand off my findings this is all I do then it gets further researched and I do not care the outcome this is not my place nor do I care about the findings of the initial research because why, I have my own treatment I focus on but I also know what parents go through when they have people like you ( AS DISPLAYED IN THIS EMAIL AND PRIOR HOSTILE CONTACT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN COMING AT ME WITH) and yes it is hostility because when I am letting you know that I am not giving you false information you are trying to manipulate what I am saying so once again please stop this childish behavior and where you seem to fail to understand who I am I assure you I know who you are, like I said I do my research this is why I am so respected and if you want to see more about me and the role that I established please feel free to mention my name anywhere online as manders and you will find out exactly how popular my honesty and transparency have been in this community. Also you can ask Ryan Hampton and the other people who actually have been here in dc and know the role that I play in this whole scene.

~~~~~~~~~My facebook post~~~~~~~~~~

I do not normally play into this but I am getting angry. First off as for facts allow me to clarify this situation. I do not know these people nor do I care to we all know what I do in this community and we are all aware that I am the official co chair for the ADDICTION POLICY FORUM through the state of maryland… FACTS. I said that I am looking into some things and asked for contact did not bring them to anyone elses attentions kid chose to ignore me FACTS. I sent an email expressing that I was throwing some issues relating to things in our community and said that I was placing some questions on the table so I did not take someone by surprise, I am very honest and I come to people out of respect. Now allow me to explain something to you.

I will not sit back and allow you to think you are going to continue to harass me and try to intimidate me because now I am going to state facts one, I keep getting these emails and I keep blocking these people from contacting me because I have nothing further to say to or about them, now they are in direct violation of the same thing they are accusing me of so this is where I am choosing to make a counter statement. I only provide facts I am not running around on facebook and calling you out I do not do screen arguing or threats and I assure you that if you ask MaryBeth Cichocki exactly what role I play here in my senate PS MARYLAND KEEP YOUR INFORMATION STRAIGHT LADY. I am studying in Virginia as for the picture you have this is not an updated one since I have blue and jade colored hair now I can send you a recent one if you would like now I am politely giving you this message I assure you that all you are doing is making it more evident that the information that you think I have is questionable I never came at you and I only cleared up the information you thought you knew about who you were typing to on the other end of the keyboard. So with your CEASE AND DESIST papers please be aware they need to be SERVED to be actually in play and hun when it comes to me taking it to the senate there is no way to stop that, like this is my right as a person who was asked to sit as this position and I volunteer to do it and like I said I am very into this scene so please tell me once again how your precious idle threats are going to bring me down I will tell you one thing though I am going to check and see how legal it is for you to keep harassing me and not getting the right information for me to allow you to pursue your idle threats. Waiting for the mail and I hope it is notarized and completely legit because this is another issue that I was concerned about the way that people are confusing how constructive you are to handling situations with other addicts and obviously this is an exact display on why this is not a positive thing right at this point. Intimidation is not cool and you can not intimidate a leader so now politely stop contacting me or I will request a sit down with your rep and discuss this issue with them. Like I said I am very welcome at the Hart building and I attend a lot of our activities here and also get invites to attend certain events most of us never imagined possible so when I come to you and advise you that there is an alleged conflict well I was trying to let you know that there was a red flag then I take it to the proper authorities so I assure you that once again your reply is as follows lady stop digging yourself a deeper hole because where you have no idea who I am I am very well aware of who it is that is harassing me and I can back up my talk so I am not blocking you from my email but if you could please leave me alone and also worry about the things you need to I would greatly appreciate if you would stop trying to make me have panic attacks because as of currently its been mere asthma attacks from laughing at this nonsense. Please try to turn this behavior around and realize that I do not back down and honestly I do not call people out unless they need to be held accountable on a very public level so this is my official response I would appreciate that you all do not contact me out of respect this means that along with this post and the email I am sending in reply to your current one I ask that you no longer try to interfere with my life and try to menace me because like you have your backers I assure you I have mine as well, Sincerely Amanda ROMERO-Espana I already gave you my address and all the other information that you thought that I would not give and like I said this needs to stop.

~~~~~~ And this is displayed on the Amanda Romero page it does not have your name on it but be assured now this ends, because this will be the final threat you make to me and if I get this letter in the mail like you are stating it is my right to post it online because you are falsely accusing me of something and have no grounds to stand on therefore opening yourself up to a countersuit. Please have a great day. Oh as well I am going to be sending the Addiction Policy Forum my findings and what I am taking to the seat and am pretty sure this will be another thing that is looked at as a great thing to find a way to give back healthily instead of toxic behavior like bullying through social media.
