PlaintitT, and his parents, Dixie and Eugene Berkheimer, at Country Manor
Estates, 154 Cedar Lane, Carlisle, PA, from August 1998, until June 4, 1999.
PlaintitT, Defendant, Nicholas, and Caroline Brooks, Defendant's mother, at 43
Country Club Road, Carlisle, PA, from the date of Tyler Eugene Berkheimer's
birth on June 1, 1998, until Augnst 1998.
19. The facts of the most recent incident of abuse are as follows:
On about Wednesday, May 09, 2001 at approximately 2:00AM
location: Burkholder's Mobile Home Park, 11 Robyn Drive, Newville, PA
Defendant telephoned PlaintitT at his residence approximately 10 times from about 2:00 a.m.
until 2:30 a.m. when he answered the phone. Defendant told PlaintitTthat she had been
watching the residence and described to him activities which tookplac:e there from early evening
May 8, 2001, until he answered the phone. Defendant told Plaintiff that she knew that his
parents had been there, tha.t his friend, Derek, was staying at the residence that night, what
color shirt Derek was wearing, where Derek,was sleeping, and that the fan was in the window
and the window blinds were drawn up half way. When PlaintitT asked Defendant if she was
standing outside, she told him to go to the ,bedroom window and turn on the light. Fearing for
his safety, PlaintitT refused. Defendant then threatenedPlaintitT saying, "Just remember that I
love you, and please forgive me for what I'm going to do to you; this will all be over soon."
Fearing for his safety because of Defendant's threats and her stalking of him, PlaintitT reported
the incident to the Pennsylvania State Police.
Later the same morning, at approximately 9:00 a.m., Defendant drove by Plaintiff's place of
employment, and honked the horn and waved to him. At approximately 5:20 p.m. that same
day, Defendant telephon~ PlaintitTat his place of employment, told him that she would see him
at home after work. When PlaintitT told Defendant that he would not meet her and asked her to
stay away from his residence,she ignored'him, and re~ponded' "Ok, rn see you there." Fearing
for his safety and that of his child, PlaintitT stayed away from his residence for the night.
20. Prior incidents of abuse that the Defendant has committed against Plaintiff or the minor child/ren,
(including any threats, injuries, or incidents of stalking) are as follows:
On or about May 7, 2001, at approximately 8:30 a.m., Defendant returned to Plaintiff's
residence in spite of the fact that he had asked her to leave the previous night and demanded
that he let her in. Defendant told Plaintiff that she only needed to come in for a moment to get
some clothing for work and that she would then leave. When PlaintitT allowed her inside for this
limited pUl'pose, Defendant refused to leave, took the battery out of the telephone so he could not
call the police, threw a computer glare screen against the wall breaking it, grabbed a shard of the
glass and threatened to stab PlaintitT, who held the parties' 3-year-old son, Tyler, next to him on
the couch. Defendant spat on Plaintiff twice, the spittle also hitting the child, yelled and
threatened, "You both aren't worth it; I wish you two were dead." PlaintitT asked Defendant not
to harm him or their child. PlaintitT convinced Defendant to give him the telephone battery so he
could call a friend to come get him, but instead called the Pennsylvania State Police for help.
~~liJirr, " ~t, .",""'" "..~_ ~ ":C"< h ~f"__,
_I" -, ,~ "'1
When Defendant heard Plaintiff calling the police, she disconnected the call by puUing the cord
out of the receiver, and as he tried to caD a second time, she pulled the telephone cord from the
jack.
Fearing for his and Tyler's safety, Plaintiff took the child and went to a neighbor's home to call
for help. Defendant followed them, grabbed the child, pulled him away from PlaintitT,got into
her vehicle with the child and l'efused to let PlaintitT have him. Plaintiff got the child away from
Defendant, found a neighbor who was home and caUed the police from their home. Plaintiff
returned to the residence with the child after he saw that Defendant had left the area. Shortly
after Plaintiff got back to the trailer, Defendant returned, and when he blocked the door to
prevent her from getting in, Defendant went around to the other side of the trailer and tried to
push the air conditioning unit through the window into the trailer. PlaintitT saw the air
conditioner rocking forward, and fearing that it would faD on Tyler, who was standing nearby,
he tried to steady the air conditioner. Defendant ran back around to the door, tried to kick it
open, and when she could not, she stood outside the window, raked her fingernails across her
neck and arm causing redmarks and threatened P1aintitT telling him that he was going to jail.
The Pennsylvania State P{llice responded, and asked Defendant to leave.
Approximately 15 minutes after the police left, Defendant returned, went into the storage shed in
the yard, got a pair of grass shears, used them to try to pry the window open, pounded on the
window and door with'the shears, forced the door open, and entered the residence. As PllaintitT,
who held Tyler by the hand, telephoned for belp, Defendant, with the grass shears in hand,
grabbed the child and tried topuU him away from Plaintiff. Plaintifftookthe child, left the
home, and as he tried to get into the vehicle with the child, Defendant grabbed both Plaintiff and
the child by their hair and pulled them backward. Plaintiff got away from Defendant, ran to ,the
trailer with the child in his arms, and as he tried to get back into the trailer, Defendant tried to
stab him with the grass shears.causing a tear in his shirt, grabbed his leg and tried to puU him
away from the door. When PlaintitTtriedto'close the door, Defendant shoved the grass shears
between the door and the j81D!bpreve~ting him fromclosingthe'dollr. When Plaintiff quickly
Ilpened the door slightly, Defendant puUed the shears bll-ck, and PlaintitT slammed the door shut
to avoid further abuse. Plaintift' reported the 'indden~tit the Pennsylvania State Police and a
report was made to ClImberland COllnty Children in Y ollth Services, who are currently
investigating the incident.
In or abollt mid-November 1997, Defendant blocked the door with her body when Plaintiff tried
to leave, PllUed his hair, scratched him, threw his possessions about, and threatened that if he
left her, she wollld kiUherself, and that ifshe ever saw him with anyone else she wOllld flick lip
the other person or eliminate the person from the picture.
In or abollt early 1997, when Plaintiff tried to leave Defendant, she foUowed him in her vehicle,
drove toward him and hit Plaintiff with the car knocking him to the ground.
On several occasions Defendant became angry with Plaintiff, said that Tyler was not her son,
grabbed and pllBed the child's hair, and screamed in his face.
Defendant has threatened to kill herself on several occasions and has been trcated for severe
depression. In or about 1998, Plaintiff took Defendant to Crisis Intervention at Carlisle Hospital
,'''\~VQfI" -

after she threatened to kill herself when she fonnd out she was pregnant with their son, Tyler.
Defendant committed herself to the psychiatric ward of Carlisle Hospital for several days
thereaft~r.
21. The police department(s) or law enforcement agencies that should be provided with a copy of the
protection order are:
