Kentucky Judge Rice-Holderfield Court Whore Exposing the dirty little secrets of family court.

JUST SOME GOOD OL BOYS

Two hours of questioning of a minor child regarding the ownership of this blogs and many more is really showing how desperate this Judge court whore has become.

Rice-Holderfield sent out her goons today to many persons homes, including Miss Kentucky International Elaine Bateman.  What has become of the justice system that they are hell bent on jailing a mother for others taking the stance on this injustice?!

We hope you are proud of yourself by intimidating a child into submission, falsely accusing her of blogging the TRUTH...CPS worker Sheila and Police Officer Blevins. There is a special little place in hell for those who fail to protect and serve....not sure which level...I will have to get back to you on that.  In the meantime I suggest you do some reading....  http://whoresofthecourt.com

In this provocative and well-researched book, Margaret Hagen, Ph.D, reveals how expert psychological testimony is a total fraud, showing how the courts have increasingly embraced not a cutting-edge science but, instead, a discipline that represents a terrifying retreat into fantasy and hearsay; a discipline propelled by powerful propaganda, arrogance, and greed.

What kind of country are we living in where the authorities protect a person who beats a child and non-abusers and victims are threatened and harassed. We cannot let this go on.

CHAMBER OF SECRETS

Just when you think you have left an abusive relationship enter the family court judge. In Kentucky there is one such judge (court whore) that loves to hand out punishment to all but especially mothers and children.

As I researched the Honorable Judge Catherine Rice-Holderfield it gave me more insight to how this court whore ticks and how she got into the position she was appointed not voted into.

According to http://kyjudges2006.wikispaces.com/file/view/bgdailynews.oct31.pdf is where I found the interesting comments that Rice-Holderfield made in regards to her experience with family court matters.

Rice-Holderfield states, My parents divorced when I was a teenager. Being a child of divorce gives me a special perspective on how deeply this family tragedy affects children. I also could see how my parents struggled with custody, division of their property and debts, and with providing financial support. When my children were very young, their father and I divorced, very amicably, and I faced balancing management of my sole law practice with being a single parent, while always making sure my children were the focus of my attention. These are priorities I also keep now, and which I stress to persons in family court

First of all, just because your parents divorced and you divorced amicably does NOT mean you have all knowing experience in family court. Her special perspective is askew to the point that hypocrisy doesn't even apply to her method of madness. Especially now when Kimberly Harris is facing judicial retaliation on October 19th for absolutely nothing. In what can only be described as judicial abuse and retaliation Rice-Holderfield has threatened jail for Kimberly Harris and her supporters for speaking about her judicial abuse online.

So to make this all clear, Rice-Holderfield is upset because American citizens have exposed her dirty little secrets? With the information I have gleaned from the www there is much more to expose about this Kentucky court whore.

First thing I did was check with the Constitution and it still says:

Amendment 1 - Freedom of Religion, Press, Expression. Ratified 12/16/1791

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Redress

redress v. 1. To set right, remedy or rectify. 2. To make amends for. n. 1. Satisfaction for wrong done; reparation. 2. Correction. [redresser.]

This is a redress and you should duly note it.

The absurdity and contradictions continue at http://kyjudges2006.wikispaces.com/file/view/bgdailynews.oct31.pdf They pose the question to Rice-Holderfield,

What issues, if any, are important to improve family court?

I believe I’m serving the community very well in family court. I treat every participant equally, fairly, with dignity and respect. I’m always striving toward greater efficiency in managing my large caseload, and to save money and time for the people in my court. I put the focus on the children whose entire lives will be affected by the decisions we make and the agreements we reach in family court. I try to put myself in the shoes of every person that comes into my courtroom, while applying the law to the facts presented to me.

Thankfully after I read this quote I didnt spew too hard onto my keyboard. After we heard about Kimberly Harris and her son we knew that this was insanity, we just didn't anticipate the extent of it. Rice-Holderfield by her own admission is a product of divorce, she has been through divorce, she is a mother...but yet she is hellbent on jailing a mother who did nothing more than any mother would do to protect their child from abuse, it is blatantly apparent Rice-Holderfield doesn't grasp that concept.

Sadly it doesn't end there..the rest of the article here: http://judgecatherinericeholderfield.blogspot.com/2010/10/chamber-of-secrets.html


Family Court -- Unconstitutional Judicial Gag Orders

Over the past decade, family court judges routinely have uttered broader and broader gag orders, forbidding parents in custody battles from talking or writing about their cases. The pretext for these orders is that they are needed for the protection of the child.  Nevertheless, it's suspected that more often they are prompted by embarrassed officials who dislike scrutiny and criticism by internet bloggers in the wake of burgeoning out-of-control shoot-from-the-hip "therapeutic jurisprudence" in the family courts. The stated child protection rationale is specious because defamation, obscenity, violations of privacy, harassment, and other unprotected speech appropriately are addressed by the law after the fact when actual or potentially harmful speech can be specifically identified.

These orders are illegal under the First Amendment as violations of the constitutional prohibition against prior restraint. Now one mother, Faith Torres, has contacted the American Civil Liberties Union because of a gag order entered in her case by Judge Debra DeSegna in Providence, Rhode Island, July 29, at the request of the Rhode Island Department of Children, Youth and Families. Steven Brown, executive director of the ACLU's Rhode Island affiliate, called the order a "blatant violation of the First Amendment." Let's see some federal lawsuits. http://newsblog.projo.com/2010/08/judge-bars-ri-mother-from-talk.html

OKCFOXNEWS: Families Demand Reform at M.E.'s Office. (Garvin County, Oklahoma)

Families Demand Reform at M.E.'s Office

 

Families unite to demand reform at the Medical Examiner's Office.  They shared their horror stories today and have now brought in a nationally known victim's rights advocate to get the federal government to step in.  The M.E.'s office says it will gladly look at any new evidence. http://www.okcfox.com/newsroom/top_stories/videos/kokh_vid_2310.shtml

"If you come to Garvin County, you might be leaving in a body bag."

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjkgOzjKue0]

Many speak for justice, but few have the courage to face down the devil in its name.

October 15, 2010 National USA……With the arrival in Oklahoma of nationally-known author, media personality and activist, Susan Murphy Milano, there begins the process of shedding more light on some of Oklahoma's darkest secrets.  For years, families have struggled in this State with a "good ole boy" system that delivered not justice, but cold justice.

The families affected by this system of justice in Garvin County, Oklahoma have called on Murphy Milano to help them bring national attention to the alleged corruption surrounding several cases of possible murder that have been covered up or improperly investigated by those sworn into positions of authority.

 

The climate is quite hostile and the safety of those speaking out has been threatened.

According to Attorney Jaye Mendros, “When a murder is covered up, or inadequately investigated, and an erroneous cause or manner of death determination is made by a good ole' boy who is NOT a physician, the Medical Examiner’s Office should NOT turn a blind eye and rubber stamp that determination.”

With the help of Oklahoma City attorney, Jaye Mendros, and Justice for the Dead, along with grass roots organization, The Eleventh Commandment, and the families of Chanda Turner, Sheila Deviney, Tom Horton, and others, they hope to illuminate the overwhelming evidence and bring justice to those who have gone without it for too long.

This corruption begs for national attention from major news networks. In an upcoming election is a Sheriff who was present at each of these death scenes.

Does Garvin County, Oklahoma want more of the same?

 

"If you come to Garvin County, you might be leaving in a body bag."

Murder & Malfeasance in Garvin County, Oklahoma

By Doug Hagmann & Dr. Laurie Roth Thursday, October 14, 2010

imageChandra Turner, Sheila Deviney and Tom Horton. These are the names of three people who met unexpected, untimely and violent deaths in Garvin County, Oklahoma in recent years.  In each of these cases, their deaths were ruled as suicides by the Garvin County Medical Examiner’s office following investigations headed by the Garvin County, OK Sheriff’s Department. In each of these cases, the victims’ families claim that there are irregularities surrounding not only their deaths, but within the official investigations into each death.

For those of us who have experience in conducting death investigations, we know how common it is for family members of suicide victims to look for alternativeexplanations for their deaths, choosing not to believe that their loved one could perform such a selfish act. It is difficult and sometimes impossible to convince family members that a suicide is just that, especially after a thorough and exhaustive investigation of all facts available and developed, using a combination of old fashioned detective work supplemented by more advanced forensic tests.

But what happens when the facts don’t support the conclusion of suicide? When the evidence so strongly and blatantly contradicts a suicide ruling that maintaining suicide as the official cause of death defies all logic? And when leads are ignored and evidence is either overlooked or intentionally destroyed?

Under normal circumstances, law enforcement officials are receptive to the legitimate concerns of the families of the victims and are interested in justice for the victims and closure for their families. In Garvin County, Oklahoma, however, it appears that justice for these victims is elusive if not non-existent. Instead of closure, these families are left with a gaping, festering wound as they witness their deceased loved ones victimized not only by their assailants, but now by the justice system itself.

imageThe families Chandra Turner, Sheila Deviney and Tom Horton, unrelated to one another except by their grief, recently found that they share a significant common factor; the deaths of their loved ones were investigated by the same law enforcement agency and under the direction of the same man, Garvin County Sheriff Steve Brooks.  Individually, the victims’ families report that they attempted to appeal to Sheriff Brooks to reconsider evidence that was overlooked, dismissed, tampered with and in some cases, even destroyed or permitted to be destroyed. They were sent away.

Individually, the families sought redress with the office of the Garvin County DistrictAttorney, only to be again rebuffed. Perhaps it was due to the fact that the head of the investigations unit within that office was a primary investigator in the Chanda Turner and Sheila Deviney cases.

Perhaps the individual efforts of the families seeking justice would have quietly died along with their loved ones had it not been for the efforts of Ms. Susan Murphy-Milanoand Mr. Shannon Kile. Ms. Murphy-Milano is an expert in the field of intimate partner violence, an author and a witness herself to the murder of a loved one. It was through Ms. Murphy Milano that the families of the victims in Garvin County found common ground, learning that they were not alone in their abandonment by the criminal justicesystem. It was through her efforts that the unthinkable was discovered. The families shared not only in their losses, but in the curious actions of the Garvin County Sheriff’s Office. The same curious actions spilled over into the Garvin County’s MedicalExaminer’s Office as well, appearing to involve an overlapping of personnel seemingly uninterested in justice for the victims or closure for their families.

According to the families, they just wanted the cases to go away, to be over in the most expeditious manner possible, apparently without regard to justice for the victims or safety to the community. A review of the evidence of each case strongly suggests that one or more individuals played an active role in each case - in each death. In other words, they were murdered, and the murderers continue to enjoy their freedom.

Susan Murphy-Milano has taken up the cause to seek justice in the murders of Chanda Turner, Sheila Deviney and Tom Horton. She has pressed for case files, investigative documents, and called for new, independent investigations into these and other cases. She reached out to the Garvin County District Attorney’s office, requesting a meeting to discuss the evidence she had assembled from the families. Also requested for the meeting was Sheriff Steve Brooks.

As first revealed on the new weekly “unsolved crime” segment of the nationally syndicated Roth Show yesterday (link to show archive here), Ms. Murphy-Milano disclosed that her hopes and those of the victims’ families were trampled by Garvin County prosecutor Gregory Mashburn of Oklahoma District 21. Mr. Mashburn notified her and officially declined to met with her, stating that she “had nothing else to offer them” regarding the Gavin County murder cases. As a back-up in the event that reason was insufficient, Mashburn cited “scheduling issues.” Following the official rebuff by the prosecutor, Sheriff Brooks unsurprisingly submitted his regrets as well.

It is sadly ironic that the home page of the District 21 County web site prominently displays the assertion that “The District Attorney must strive to seek justice, protect our communities, and represent those who have been the victims of crime.” Is it possible that District Attorney Mashburn has not read his own web site?

The efforts of Ms. Murphy-Milano, however, have not come without a price. She will be in Garvin County Oklahoma for the next 10 days, despite receiving previously warnings that if she came to Garvin County, she might not leave - except in a body bag. Ms. Murphy-Milano made that disclosure during the October 13, 2010 segment of the Roth Show.

While it is painfully obvious that her inquiries are not “officially” welcome in our nation’s heartland, she remains undeterred and plans on conducting a press conference this Friday, October 15, 2010 at the law offices of Jaye Mendros, 3033 NY 63rd Avenue, Suite E-105, Oklahoma City, OK at 1:00 p.m. CT. Attorney Mendros is taking on cases involving the Garvin County, Oklahoma Medical Examiner’s Office where such homicide investigations and the proper determinations of the causes and manners of death were botched by the authorities.

At her side will be Mr. Shannon Kile, the founder of The Eleventh Commandment, a grassroots organization of concerned citizens in Garvin County, Oklahoma, formed this year to counter a growing plague of police corruption, political apathy and administrative malfeasance. According to Mr. Kile, such factors played a part in the untimely murders of a number of local citizens which have yet to be solved.

We are certain that through the dedications of Ms. Murphy Milano, Mr. Kile and with the able assistance and tenacity of Attorney Jaye Mendros, securing justice for these victims is now a possibility. And now that the actions of a few are being exposed to the many, rest assured the spotlight of truth will shine brightly upon them until the victims can rest in peace.

Sadly it doesn't end there...next I checked to see what else Rice-Holderfield has her grubby little hands into. According to another source she organized a seminar dubbed “Co-parenting: No Child in the Middle” after she states that she presided over several cases that could have been resolved out of court if parents effectively communicated. Really, effectively communicating with an abuser? How is that actually done?! But what really effectively sums up Rice-Holderfields reasoning is that she is lazy and cannot and should not be bothered with menial things that parents that go through custody disputes, especially those that were in abusive relationships. Rice-Holderfield even states as much when she says that:

“I’ve had to decide what orthodontist the children will have,” she said. “I’m thinking, ‘This is not something I should be deciding.’ ”

Well, geez...if you really think about it don't you think that those that cannot decide those things are the ones that really need the judges help? No, she is more concerned with what is being said about her on the internet. Guess she thought that citizens would allow her to do whatever she wants from the bench....guess again.

This is the tip of that proverbial iceberg...because not only does her vanity of google searching for herself ON the job with taxpayers money paying her wage...

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Corruption and Cover ups Exposed in Garvin County, Oklahoma

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Many speak for justice, but few have the courage to face down the devil in its name.

October 15, 2010 National USA……With the arrival in Oklahoma of nationally-known author, media personality and activist, Susan Murphy Milano, there begins the process of shedding more light on some of Oklahoma's darkest secrets.  For years, families have struggled in this State with a "good ole boy" system that delivered not justice, but cold justice.

The families affected by this system of justice in Garvin County, Oklahoma have called on Murphy Milano to help them bring national attention to the alleged corruption surrounding several cases of possible murder that have been covered up or improperly investigated by those sworn into positions of authority.

The climate is quite hostile and the safety of those speaking out has been threatened.

According to Attorney Jaye Mendros, “When a murder is covered up, or inadequately investigated, and an erroneous cause or manner of death determination is made by a good ole' boy who is NOT a physician, the Medical Examiner’s Office should NOT turn a blind eye and rubber stamp that determination.”

With the help of Oklahoma City attorney, Jaye Mendros, and Justice for the Dead, along with grass roots organization, The Eleventh Commandment, and the families of Chanda Turner, Sheila Deviney, Tom Horton, and others, they hope to illuminate the overwhelming evidence and bring justice to those who have gone without it for too long.

This corruption begs for national attention from major news networks. In an upcoming election is a Sheriff who was present at each of these death scenes.

Does Garvin County, Oklahoma want more of the same?

Judicial Abuse: When Abuse from your Ex Just isn't Enough

Chamber of Secrets

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just when you think you have left an abusive relationship enter the family court judge. In Kentucky there is one such judge (court whore) that loves to hand out punishment to all but especially mothers and children.

As I researched the Honorable Judge Catherine Rice-Holderfield it gave me more insight to how this court whore ticks and how she got into the position she was appointed not voted into.

According to http://kyjudges2006.wikispaces.com/file/view/bgdailynews.oct31.pdf is where I found the interesting comments that Rice-Holderfield made in regards to herexperience with family court matters.

Rice-Holderfield states, My parents divorced when I was a teenager. Being a child of divorce gives me a special perspective on how deeply this family tragedy affects children. I also could see how my parents struggled with custody, division of their property and debts, and with providing financial support. When my children were very young, their father and I divorced, very amicably, and I faced balancing management of my sole law practice with being a single parent, while always making sure my children were the focus of my attention. These are priorities I also keep now, and which I stress to persons in family court

First of all, just because your parents divorced and you divorced amicably does NOT mean you have all knowing experience in family court. Her special perspective is askew to the point that hypocrisy doesn't even apply to her method of madness. Especially now when Kimberly Harris is facing judicial retaliation on October 19th for absolutely nothing. In what can only be described as judicial abuse and retaliation Rice-Holderfield has threatened jail for Kimberly Harris and her supporters for speaking about her judicial abuse online.

So to make this all clear, Rice-Holderfield is upset because American citizens have exposed her dirty little secrets? With the information I have gleaned from the www there is much more to expose about this Kentucky court whore.

First thing I did was check with the Constitution and it still says:

Amendment 1 - Freedom of Religion, Press, Expression. Ratified 12/16/1791

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Redress

redress v. 1. To set right, remedy or rectify. 2. To make amends for. n. 1. Satisfaction for wrong done; reparation. 2. Correction. [redresser.]

This is a redress and you should duly note it.

The absurdity and contradictions continue athttp://kyjudges2006.wikispaces.com/file/view/bgdailynews.oct31.pdf

They pose the question to Rice-Holderfield,

What issues, if any, are important to improve family court?

I believe I’m serving the community very well in family court. I treat every participant equally, fairly, with dignity and respect. I’m always striving toward greater efficiency in managing my large caseload, and to save money and time for the people in my court. I put the focus on the children whose entire lives will be affected by the decisions we make and the agreements we reach in family court. I try to put myself in the shoes of every person that comes into my courtroom, while applying the law to the facts presented to me.

Thankfully after I read this quote I didnt spew too hard onto my keyboard. After we heard about Kimberly Harris and her son we knew that this was insanity, we just didn't anticipate the extent of it. Rice-Holderfield by her own admission is a product of divorce, she has been through divorce, she is a mother...but yet she is hell-bent on jailing a mother who did nothing more than any mother would do to protect their child from abuse, it is blatantly apparent Rice-Holderfield doesn't grasp that concept.

Sadly it doesn't end there...next I checked to see what else Rice-Holderfield has her grubby little hands into. According to another source she organized a seminar dubbed “Co-parenting: No Child in the Middle” after she states that she presided over several cases that could have been resolved out of court if parents effectively communicated. Really, effectively communicating with an abuser? How is that actually done?! But what really effectively sums up Rice-Holderfields reasoning is that she is lazy and cannot and should not be bothered with menial things that parents that go through custody disputes, especially those that were in abusive relationships. Rice-Holderfield even states as much when she says that:

“I’ve had to decide what orthodontist the children will have,” she said. “I’m thinking, ‘This is not something I should be deciding.’ ”

Well, geez...if you really think about it don't you think that those that cannot decide those things are the ones that really need the judges help? No, she is more concerned with what is being said about her on the internet. Guess she thought that citizens would allow her to do whatever she wants from the bench....guess again.

This is the tip of that proverbial iceberg...because not only does her vanity of google searching for herself ON the job with taxpayers money paying her wage...

JOINT CHILD CUSTODY IS NOT ALWAYS THE BEST COURSE

Rights For Mothers

There have been many cases of fathers injuring or killing their children lately, usually with the underlying case being traced back to custody or child support issues.  There are so many that I rarely cover them anymore.  There are other bloggers that do a good job of this, such as Dastardly Dads (I don’t know how she keeps up with all the incidents).  This is from the Houston Chronicle about one of those cases, and it ties it all together pretty well (the main cause behind a lot of these sad cases).  It is too bad judges and court-appointed personnel don’t understand this.

Children often the victims of cycle of domestic abuse

Granting joint custody not always the best course

By LAKSHMY PARAMESWARAN
DAYA INC.

Oct. 12, 2010, 8:25PM

The devastating effect of domestic violence on children shook us on Sept. 19, the day convicted batterer Mohammad Goher shot and killed his three children while they slept in his Houston home. A tortured victim of Goher for 15 years, Goher’s wife had left and filed for divorce. Despite having generous unsupervised custody privileges, Goher feared losing custody of his children. He took matters into his own hands.

Power and control are at the core of the cycle of violence, and a child is a convenient pawn that the abuser often uses to control his spouse, even an estranged spouse. By killing his children, Goher made the final decision about their future and showed his wife he was still in control. In a batterer, the need to feel powerful is this overwhelming. In his desperate attempt to gain control, he actually loses control.

It is unfortunate that the presumption of our family law — joint custody to ensure that a child has two parents — often fails to exclude violent fathers like Goher from obtaining custody. By tormenting the mothers and exposing their children to violence, these fathers have demonstrated their inability to parent. Yet our family courts continue to trust them with children. It is time for our society to reconsider its stance on joint custody. The deaths of the Goher children should not be in vain.

Reports on the tragedy state that the lawyers involved in the Goher case raised no concern over the children’s safety. They saw Goher as a loving father because he had not specifically threatened or hurt the children and when asked if they wanted to visit their father, the children said yes. Their reasoning demonstrates a severe dearth of knowledge about family violence.

In my work with battered women since 1995, I have heard puffy-eyed mothers describe their abusive husbands in the same vein as the lawyers: “He is a great father” or “He has not laid a hand on his kids.” As long as the children are not directly hurt, the women find no reason to leave. Like the family law professionals, they too believe that their children need both parents. “I will leave after my child turns 18″ is a common statement I hear. To these mothers, I stress three simple facts: (1) What is detrimental to the mother cannot be good for her young children. (2) It is only a matter of time before the children are hurt. (3) By diminishing the perpetrator’s violent acts and highlighting his fatherly qualities, they fuel the cycle of violence.

Knowing the facts helps women weigh their options. Deciding a course of action takes time. As for leaving, it is an ordeal fraught with fear, doubt, guilt and many economic and social impediments. For mothers like Mrs. Goher who somehow muster the courage to leave, the prospect of shared custody with the batterer may be the ultimate blow. Almost every divorced mother I counseled has expressed anger and dismay at our legal system that allows a callous wife-beater free access to their child, weekends and more. Yet, this is the reality they must face.

The children’s inclination to please the perpetrating parent however possible only reinforces this reality. Caught in the abuse cycle, children suffer due to divided loyalties. Some children feel compelled to “protect” their mothers by defying the abusive parent; some mediate; and some participate in the violence just to survive. Regardless, children are torn. No wonder, the Goher children said yes to visiting their father.

A parent prone to violence is indeed a misfortune for any child, but having to pay for it with his life is the most horrible form of injustice. Those entrusted with making crucial decisions on behalf of our children – lawyers, judges, the police, social and mental health service providers and parents — must grasp the perpetuating nature of the cycle of violence by undergoing frequent family violence training provided by local women’s centers.

Additionally, the lawyers and judges in our family courts should carefully consider the complex dynamics of family violence and fight to deny normal custody privileges to hardened established batterers like Goher. Joint custody should not in any way endanger our children.

CHILDREN’S EXPOSURE TO VIOLENCE

Children’s exposure to violence…as protective parents, we understand the harm that comes from this.  As a childhood victim who watched my mother abused by my father, only to end up in his custody, it amplifies this understanding.  Until judges, co-parenting counselors, guardians ad litem, custody evaluators, and the other court personnel that continue to churn cases to make work for themselves ($$$) understand this, children’s lives will continue to be destroyed.

Those who wish to profit off of the misery these children endure continue to push for inclusion of so-called “parental alienation disorder” (PAD) into the DSM-V, the psychiatric and psychological diagnostic “bible” (also used for insurance codes), namely Dr. William Bernet of Vanderbilt University, don’t understand this and claim that if a child is afraid to be with an abuser, theycould have PAD because they are an “independent thinker.”

It is claimed that Bernet has a large contingent who are supporting this “mental condition” going into the DSM-V.  Fathers & Families is saying now there are “70 professionals” behind the proposal, up from the recent “50″ supporting it.  F&F are pushing for their supporters to continue to hound the committee for it’s inclusion.  This is just delusional to suggest that this is a large group of supports.  I looked into just how many psychologists there are.  I found one number…63,000 clinical psychologists in the United States alone (Bernet’s group is world wide), and this number is from the early 1990s.  This doesn’t include other psychologists such as in the forensic field, and doesn’t include the number of psychiatrists there are.  What is known of the “70 professionals” that Bernet has supporting PAD is that they make significant income from selling their books or “expert” services blaming parents for protecting their children from abuse.

Yes, there are cases where parents behave badly and lie to children, but research has shown that children are far more likely to resist being with a parent because of the behavior of that parent.  The use of parental alienation “disorders and syndromes” have been the choice of abusers to get child custody successfully taken from their victims.    Bernet and his buddies need to spend more time understanding how children are being destroyed by their actions and the actions of family courts handing these children to abusers.  Here is a report from last year, completed for the U.S. Department of Justice, on this very topic.  Our meetings with DOJ personnel continue to expand their knowledge in this area which is encouraging, but much more needs to be done.

The following post appears courtesy of Jeff Slowikowski, the Acting Administrator for the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention

Yesterday, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) released The National Survey on Children’s Exposure to Violence. The report is a precedent-setting survey because it gives us the first real estimates—as the most comprehensive survey to date– on the nature and extent of violence in children’s lives.

It is the first time data has been collected across all age ranges, and all types of violence, to define the full scope of violence-related experiences in a child’s life –whether it be as victims or witnesses, and whether it be in the home, the school or the community. This is also the first time data has been collected on the cumulative exposure to violence over a child’s lifetime.

With this comprehensive survey, we now have learned that more than 60 percent of the children surveyed were exposed to violence within the past year, either directly or indirectly. Nearly one-half of the children and adolescents surveyed were assaulted at least once in the past year, and more than 1 in 10 were injured as a result.

Respondents also reported they were the victim of a robbery, vandalism, or theft. Some said they were victims of child maltreatment, including physical and emotional abuse, neglect, or a family abduction. 1 in 16 were victimized sexually.

As Attorney General Holder said yesterday in Chicago, these figures are staggering.

The violence that millions of children and youth are exposed to in their homes, schools and communities, whether as direct victims or as a witness, can disrupt their development in many ways. This disruption in development comes from the impact of the stress or trauma on the child. It can be exhibited in how they think, interact, learn and develop relationships.

Each child responds to exposure to violence differently and many children are resilient. Others need support to address trauma reactions to prevent further adverse reactions. That’s why we in the Department of Justice’s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention support initiatives like Safe Start to prevent and reduce the impacts of children’s exposure to violence. It is our mission to protect our youth and reduce children’s exposure to violence.

At OJJDP we will continue to support the training necessary to reach across disciplines to identify children who are at risk of exposure to violence, such as witnessing domestic violence, and to coordinate the delivery of services to these children. Accurate information is a key ingredient to helping us accomplish our mission. Because the survey tracked children’s lifetime exposure to violence, researchers can develop more accurate estimates on the total number of children in a certain age group who have been exposed to a particular form of violence. It illustrates more clearly the full extent of exposure and the cumulative effects of multiple exposures to violence and how exposure to one form of violence may make a child more vulnerable to other forms of violence.

Armed with these facts we will also work with those who come into daily contact with youth and children to assess and identify those who are suffering emotionally, socially, physically and developmentally from exposure to violence. We can better coordinate our outreach to those children and families who need our help, and provide them with the support they need. This study gives us the tools to better protect juveniles and youth from the effects of violence and guide them into healthy and productive lives.

The Hands That Tie: KENTUCKY JUDGE CATHERINE RICE-HOLDERFIELD COURT WHORE

    EXPOSING THE DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS OF FAMILY COURT.

    FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2010

    THE TIES THAT BIND

    Why would a family court judge place a child in the foster care system when he has a Mother more than willing to take care of her son?

    I will tell you, since Judge Catherine Rice-Holderfield has taken office her motives may seem to be quite biased for more reasons than anyone could have previously known.

    While researching Judge Catherine Rice-Holderfied it was no surprise that to see that Judge Rice-Holderfield is involved deeply with The Citizen Foster Care Review Board. The plot thickens and so does the blood money.

    Who or what is The Citizen Foster Care Review Board? It appears that in order to become a volunteer must complete a six-hour initial training session. Wow! A whole SIX HOURS?! They claim they advocate for the dependent, neglected and abused children in their community. They also state that Citizen Foster Care Review Board volunteers come from a variety of professional backgrounds, but they all have a common a deep compassion for children. This doesn't sound like a group that Rice-Holderfield could be a part of if this is truly their mission. The CFCRB does also give the following information about how new volunteers are trained in the following for their special little group:

  • Department of Community Based Services procedures

  • Forms used in abuse, neglect and dependency cases

  • The court process

  • Mental health issues of children in out-of-home care

  • How to conduct a file review

    • Once the training is completed, a recommendation is made to the chief judge of the local District Court or Family Court for appointment. Judges appoint volunteers for three-year terms. All volunteers receive a comprehensive handbook on the program and opportunities to earn the required six hours of annual continuing education.

      While researching Rice-Holderfield it is no surprise to find the contradictory values that a family court judge really holds near and dear to their heart and apparently Rice-Holderfield is no different than all the rest.

      In fact Rice-Holderfield it appears that she may also be in the lucrative business of putting children into the foster care system for cash. In one of the most shocking cases of courtroom graft on record, two Pennsylvania judges have been charged with takingmillions of dollars in kickbacks to send teenagers to two privately run youth detention centers. “I’ve never encountered, and I don’t think that we will in our lifetimes, a case where literally thousands of kids’ lives were just tossed aside in order for a couple of judges to make some money,” said Marsha Levick, an attorney with the Philadelphia-based Juvenile Law Center, which is representing hundreds of youths sentenced in Wilkes-Barre. Prosecutors say the two Luzerne County Judges Mark Ciavarella and Michael Conahan took $2.6 million in payoffs.

      When Rice-Holderfield was sworn in as Warren County Family Court judge, Catherine Rice Holderfield said she was "fully committed" to the newly created position. Holderfield also vowed to "make all efforts to resolve people's conflicts in the best interests of families and children ... to treat all people equally, to make people know that, no matter the outcome, they were treated fairly and to provide children the best environment possible for them to succeed in life."

      If this were ALL true Judge Rice-Holderfield then why would you place an abused child in the care of the foster system instead of his loving mother, where he has said that he want to be? Why would you threaten this mother and her supporters with jail if they said anything more bad about you? Truth hurt?

      You got it right stating that you would provide the bestenvironment possible for them to succeed in life because this child is speaking up! His 14 yr old girlfriend is speaking up! These children have been given a crash course in the cottage industry of family court. When they grow up, and they will, do you think they will forget about the heartache you caused? Do you think that their supporters and themselves will vote for you? What do you think that the continued pain that this child is dealing with, first beaten and abused by his father and then beaten and bruised by your court? Its already happening, these young adults are standing up for what is right and just and focusing on your illicit ways of threatening his mother with jail.

      You have threatened to jail the mother for speaking up as any mother and American citizen has the right to do. We have heard this mothers heart breaking from this pain you have caused this family. It will be the mission of this blog and MANY others to expose any and all corruption that may exist in your courtroom and beyond. American people have the right to speak out against elected officials and their government.

      It is part of our first amendment right....FREEDOM OF SPEECH! It is also our duty as citizens to report any impropriety or the look of impropriety and we will have the ACLU standing by on this waiting to see if you really want to open that can of worms. Because we have already opened that can of whoop ass and we are OUTRAGED and we are not going ANYWHERE!

      DO THE RIGHT THING!! Send this child home with his loving mother!

      Dutchess County, NY: Domestic violence report presented to Dutchess legislature

      We know that there is a connection between the rise in domestic violence homicide in Dutchess County and their broken custody court system that has only served to encourage abusers and make mothers afraid to leave their abusers.  We need to put out this message as it could be an opportunity to have them focus on this problem.

      http://www.midhudsonnews.com/News/2010/October/14/DCL_DomVio-14Oct10.html

      Domestic violence report presented to Dutchess legislature

      POUGHKEEPSIE – Two recent murders, tied to domestic violence, came as a sobering reminder to Dutchess County lawmakers about the seriousness of a problem that threatens the entire community.

      County Legislature Chairman Robert Rolison asked a Citizens’ Advisory Committee on Domestic Violence to spend 45 days working on recommendations.  The committee presented its report at last night’s monthly legislative session.

      It’s about saving human lives, said Committee Chairperson Leah Feldman.

      “As you read through this report and consider our recommendations, please remember that we are asking for your support for services that human lives,” she said. “If the past few months in our county have taught us anything, it is the fatal, devastating and far-reaching effects that domestic violence is having on our community.”

      Marjorie Smith, chief of the special victims’ bureau in the District Attorney’s office, presented three recommendations:

      • Restore lost services, including those cut as part of the 2010 budget
      • Consider the feasibility of GPS monitoring of convicted abusers
      • Utilize ‘lethality assessment instruments’, to make sure that resources are directed at the proper cases.

      Smith said economic challenges should not stand in the way of doing what must be done to deal with domestic violence.

      “We fully recognize that this is a dire economic situation.  These recommendations that are contained in this report are not merely ‘feel good’ recommendations.”

      Smith added, “The cost of the status quo is not acceptable.”

      Rolison urged the legislature to listen to, then read, the report, and not rush into coming up with quick solutions. 

      “As a matter of fact, this probably is going to take quite some time to do in a very comprehensive way, as this report has been put together in a very comprehensive way.  So I would again ask my colleagues to hold off on trying to maybe move things forward quicker than would probably be prudent.”

      Rolison has asked legislator Ken Roman, a Town of Poughkeepsie police officer, and chair of the Public Safety Committee, to hold a series of workshops, to “go through the report comprehensively”.

      Child Custody PSA - End Court Ordered Child Abuse

       

      AMPP is a social movement seeking justice and accountability within the family court system which includes DHHS/CPS, psychologists and other so called experts.


      We as mothers demand CITIZENSHIP and our Rights to our Children.

      We demand that our children not be used as pawns by our abuser in a custody dispute.

      We demand that Mothers and Children be equally protected against court ordered visitation with an abuser.

      We demand that Mothers and Children be given the same rights, privileges and voice that the abuser gets in family courts!

      We demand that our President take action now as can no longer afford to be silent and we won’t.

      We demand the same "rights and freedoms" to which all humans are entitled.

      Behind the closed doors of the dirty little secret of the family court system, thousands of women each year lose child custody to violent men who beat and abuse Mothers and Children.

      Family courts are not family-friendly and betray the best interests of the child.

      Until Mothers and Children's voices are heard we will never shut up, give up or go away!

      Judicial Abuse

      theanonymums.

      Introduction

       

      Judicial abuse occurs when the effects of law itself are damaging to the person access to justice. In the most severe forms, Judicial abuse often occurs involving the most vulnerable members of our world: Children.

      For some time, judicial abuse has occurred across systems and mostly against mothers and children. Considering that it was not that long ago that both women and children were seen and not heard, just as things were improving it seemed as though humanity was finally valuing each and every prescious human life.

      Out in the public, such things would and do cause enough outrage for a sense of "natural justice". Away from the public eye, these human rights atrocities occur almost unseen and unheard like a thief in the night.

      Secrecy

       

      There are laws that prevent survivors from speaking out about their experiences. Whilst it is "for the children", children are not allowed to speak about the proceedings either. The media have written too few articles on the family court. To bring the case to the media, participants must seek permission from the court itself or face imprisonment.

      Controversially, fathers rights groups were allowed to heavily voice their stories of "no contact", "falsely accused of child abuse and domestic violence" and few were allowed to challenge that except in utilizing generalist terms and evidence based research. We are aware that most of these stories are not the case at all but are withheld by law to bring the public the truth.

      Family Court

       

      In the process of seeking more time with children and promoting what appears to be the most noble cause, has entrenched the rights of mothers and children in their ability to seek safety from violence.

      Heads have been quoted in the media for stating that "family violence is our core business". The propaganda that is spread about the voices of children and their access to justice promotes the profitability in manufacturing child abuse and domestic violence. They can do something about it, but it is not within their best economical advantage to do so.

      This will continue until something is done. ShareThis

      Groups protest destruction of family court documents

      While the Marin Family Court awaits the results of a state-ordered audit of its family law processes, local court watchdog groups gathered outside the Marin County Civic Center today to protest the court's destruction of child-custody files in autumn of 2009.

      The shredding of the files—which contained such things as images of children's injuries, illustrations drawn by children, witness statements, police reports and more—were allegedly ordered by court administrator Kim Turner about three months after state Legislators, including Marin Senator Marc Leno, called for an audit of the Marin and Sacramento family courts. Court detractors have for years accused the Marin Family Court of bias and negligence.

      "We are unaware of any other instance where top state court leadership has openly admitted to destroying evidence in the middle of a state investigation and ongoing litigation," said family law attorney Robin Yeamans.

      An investigation conducted by the Administrative Office of the Court was called for by presiding Judge Terrence Boren in July after a court transcript revealed that a family law mediator had destroyed files on the order of her supervisors. Boren has said the move to destroy the files was done to preserve storage space and that the AOC had prior knowledge of the decision. The AOC ruled that the shredded documents were not official court documents but, rather, notes and reports prepared by child-custody mediators and other advocates.

      The protesters at the Civic Center are calling for a criminal investigation into the matter.

      "This document destruction strikes at the very heart of our Constitutional system of checks and balances," attorney and Marin Family Court critic Barbara Kauffman said. "Top members of our California court system have endangered children and undermined the due process rights of parents who are now forced to defend against child custody recommendations that were made by historically problematic court employees whose files have now conveniently been destroyed."

      To counter the charges levied by today's demonstrators, Marin County Superior Court officials were on hand to answer questions and hand out information packets about family mediation services. Among the info on the fact sheets was:

      "Family mediator working files are NOT official court records. There are no California laws or other rules that require trial courts to retain family mediator working files. In fact, the law is silent on these records because they are not considered official court documents."

      Does this mean the working mediation documents from the Flood Valley Flood Fee litigations and other civil cases which are handled in a mediator relationship can be destroyed?

      Or is it just family court records that an be manipulated, edited, and destroyed?

      What exactly warrants the term" official court record"?

      ARTICLE SOURCE: "Family mediator working files are NOT official court records. There are no California laws or other rules that require trial courts to retain family mediator working files. In fact, the law is silent on these records because they are not considered official court documents."

      Is destruction of family court documents "content-based"?

      If anyone out there honestly believes the Court ordered the destruction of enormous amounts of documents a month after an audit was launched in order to SAVE SPACE, then I've got a bridge you might be interested in.

      I mean a spade is a spade. Clearly they were covering up wrongdoing, and whoever this Kim Turner is she belongs in jail. Why would you destroy things like kids' drawings? The only reason is if some of the children are expressing fear or apprehension about a parent and the courts chose to give that parent custody.

      If the Leg thinks the courts have made some bad decisions, they must have a massive paper trail of notes that probably proves that they put kids with bad parents. This is disgusting.

      The County had better explain why Kim Turner continues to be employed.

      Thank you for covering this story. The destruction of important court papers has to stop and our courts must follow the laws to PROTECT innocent children. Family law courts need to protect innocent children and their families NOW. Are we living in a third world country?

      Thank you for educating the people of Marin.

      Imagine Publicity

      Posted by AMPP

      Dr. Laurie Roth

      Dr. Roth has recognized the importance of the work done by Susan and her upcoming trip to Oklahoma to meet with the families, press, legislators and members of the grass roots organizations, The Eleventh Commandment and Justice for the Dead who extended the invitation to bring Susan directly to Oklahoma.

      Sheila Deviney, Chanda Turner, Tom Horton and Landon “Hopper” Edwards, among several others, have all died under suspicious circumstances, their deaths wrongly ruled according to evidence, and their investigations totally mishandled by the authorities in charge.   The families have been given the run around by those in charge, and worse.  There is no justice for any of them.

      Susan Murphy Milano

      Susan Murphy Milano will be travelling for 10 days in Oklahoma with representatives and family members.  The Roth Show will be taking daily reports from Susan as she makes her appearances in and around Oklahoma. There is concern for Susan’s safety while in Oklahoma and Dr. Laurie Roth and her associates have committed themselves to helping  keep her safe while there.
