Debra Newell and John Meehan took a trip to San Francisco early in their relationship. Shad thought it wasn’t a thing to joke about, even if you’d been to a war zone and had a war zone sense of humor. Shad thought up a lie, saying his mother had married John Meehan, and could she tell him anything about him? Shad thought John would be able to overpower him, if it came to that. During a search of the Balboa Island home, Debra Newell and her family found a stack of paperwork in John’s possessions, including restraining orders from other women.
