DECLARATION OF JASON STREATFEILD
I, Jason Streatfeild, declare:
If called upon as a wi
except as to those stat
to be true.
. About five years ago,
a rental lease for this
ed upon information and belie!
I rented a house in Montecito
roperty, which has been occuy
Chery] Streatfeild, and our two young daughters. C
for Mr. Bertrand.
. In approximately the

, and as to those matters, I bel
owned by Mr. David Bertran
ied since that time by my ex-
ery] now works as a personal
. Tamacompetent adult, and I have personal knowledge of the facts stated in this Declaration.
tness, I could and would competently testify to the truth of these facts,
ieve them
. Isigned
wife,
assistant
‘irst quarter of 2019, I received a text message from Jessica
Berry, who
correct copy of the text message I
received is contained within the attached exhibit marked Exhibit 221, a copy of which is
attache
to this Declaration.
. In her text message (Exb 221), Ms. Berry made several extremely derogatory statements
about Mr. Bertrand, including: “David is Satan and his actions are CRIMINAL.” “He buys
you off so he can abuse your family. If you have not seen his evil & learned from my abuse,
than whatever happens to your girls is YOUR FAULT FOR NOT LISTENING AND
RECOGNIZING WHAT HE HAS IRREFUTABLY DONE.” (Capitalized words in
original.)
. The text message (Exb. 221) continued: “YOU ARE FOLLOWING THE ALLURE OF HIS
MONEY AND THE HOPE OF COMMISSION RATHER THAN RECOGNIZING THE
CONTENT OF HIS CHARACTER. DAVID LOVES THAT YOU PIMP YOUR GIRLS
OUT TO HIM IN THAT WAY. GUARANTEED. I SHOULD KNOW AFTER OVER A
DECADE OF HIS ABUSE.” (Capitalization in original.
. I was appalled to read this text. I had met Ms. Berry prev
iously, but did not know her well.
In particular, I interpreted her statement to Jason that “David loves that you pimp your girls
out to him...” as implying that Mr. Bertrand was a pedop
2
ile and a sexual predator.

7. Ms. Berry’s text also implied that she had factual knowledge and experience to support these
outrageous claims, by concluding her text with the statement: “It’s YOUR FAULT for not
seeing the truth and hearing my alarm.”
8. I discussed this text with my ex-wife Cheryl, as to whether we should be concemed for the
safety of our girls. Cheryl assured me she would be vigilant and would keep our daughters
away from Mr. Bertrand’s house.
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the foregoing
is true and correct, and that this Declaration was executed on | O-2¢-1I ee ,
at Santa Barbara, California.
