\u201cYou know this is pathetic,\u201d one woman posted on GoFundMe.com. \u201cAnd so is she.\u201d<\/p>\n
Launched on behalf of Holly Hartman on Thursday, Dec. 17, the GoFundMe.com campaign seeks $5,000 to help pay for a divorce attorney. Hartman, also known as Holly Cogburn, is in Montezuma County jail awaiting trial on a child abuse charge.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell anybody that knows Holly Hartman knows that she is an awesome mom and a beautiful person thru and thru,\u201d the site proclaims.<\/p>\n
The campaign further outlines that since Hartman, a mother of two, has been held in custody without bond, an ex-husband has been attempting to keep the \u201csupermom from raising her boys.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have an excellent attorney ready to fight and deliver the justice that this mom and more importantly these two boys deserve,\u201d the site states.<\/p>\n
The online response has been critical. Despite raising less than $100 from four donors in the first day, eight others had posted on the campaign page as of Friday warning people not to contribute.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo not donate to this person without learning the real story,\u201d one woman posted. \u201cShe has created this misery and inflicted it on her babies.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis was made by her boyfriend,\u201d another woman commented. \u201cShe doesn\u2019t deserve help.\u201d<\/p>\n
Other posts alluded to Cogburn\u2019s initial arrest at a party on Aug. 29.<\/p>\n
According to police, partygoers asked Cogburn about the 2-year-old unattended inside a vehicle. Police called a social worker to the scene after finding the child strapped into a car seat that was soaked in urine.<\/p>\n
Another GoFundMe comment remarked that Cogburn\u2019s boyfriend was recently accused of mailing marijuana to her while in custody.<\/p>\n
On Nov. 17, a Montezuma County jailor reported that he found a \u201csuspicious green leafy substance\u201d inside an envelope addressed to Cogburn, 30, of Cortez. Marijuana could be smelled coming from the envelope, authorities said.<\/p>\n
The suspicious package was reportedly sent from a 44-year-old Durango man.<\/p>\n
In custody after failure to comply with bond conditions, Cogburn was initially charged with child abuse stemming from the August incident. She\u2019s also being held for failure to appear in Michigan, according to jail records.<\/p>\n
According to the GoFundMe campaign page, Cogburn\u2019s trial date on the child abuse charge is set for Jan. 27.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
