Who is Dave?

Dave Mehaffie has been married to his lovely wife Kym for 42 years and the couple share 6 children and 13 grandchildren! The entire family lives in the same area and are very close. In fact all four of the couple’s sons work together in a construction business that Dave helped them launch.

He grew up working in the family pie business, but eventually started his own landscaping business. Success led him into construction and for many years he owned and operated a construction business that ultimately employed 15 people.

Following a dream, Dave started a gym and personal training center, providing Level 2 StrongFirst instruction, but Dave was hit with two disasters in short succession. His beloved father passed away and within days, the state locked down his gym under COVID restrictions. The business never recovered and Dave has been forced to return to construction, despite health issues.

Dave is passionate about the outdoors, spending free time back-packing and climbing trees. He has also been active in the local Catholic church and dedicated himself to the “Rescue Movement” defending the lives of unborn babies through peaceful protest.

Donate

The lawyers working with the January 6 Legal Defense Fund are providing services to Dave at a reduced rate, because of their passion for the Constitution and concern over the treatment and abuse of Americans who were simply exercising their rights to protest. Currently we are raising money for the pre-trial and research portion of the process and are seeking $50,000.00 to cover Dave’s pre-trial expenses. Please consider donating to help defend Dave.
