Marotta petitioned Miami-Dade Circuit Court domestic violence division for a protection order against Stocker. In December 2021, David Marotta, the ex-husband of Woman #1 accused Stocker of stalking her. Upon learning this fact, Woman #1 ended her relationship with Stocker, though the two later rekindled and remained on and off for another year," it added. Although we are not affiliated with AA or with any other organization or agency, we are, indeed, grateful for permission to modify and apply the Steps and Traditions to sex addiction, making recovery possible for us.''Meanwhile, around July of 2020, Woman #1 confirmed that Stocker was cheating on her with yet a third woman (Woman #3).

The basic principles of recovery practiced by SAA are found in the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. We learned through the SAA Fellowship that we were not hopelessly defective. In that setting we heard stories similar to ours and realized that recovery from our problem was possible.

Many of us came to this realization when we started attending SAA meetings. Despite many failed promises to ourselves and attempts to change, we discovered that we were unable to stop acting out sexually by ourselves. Through long and painful experience, we came to realize that we were powerless over our sexual thoughts and behaviors and that our preoccupation with sex was causing progressively severe adverse consequences for us, our families, and our friends. As a fellowship of recovering addicts, Sex Addicts Anonymous offers a message of hope to anyone who suffers from sex addiction.
