The Family Court Circus

Ulster Family Court Ambush: Helen Garber faces secret contempt hearing, false abuse claims, missing testimony, and altered transcripts.

Ulster Family Court Ambush: Mother Branded ‘Abuser’ in Secret Hearing

Helen Garber entered the Ulster County courtroom on July 18, 2024, expecting to seek protection from domestic abuse. Instead, she was blindsided with an emergency contempt hearing she never saw coming. In just hours, ex parte emails flew, a sealed petition was weaponized, and Garber was branded a child abuser before any defense. Her evidence, her witnesses, her voice were erased from the record. Judges turned a blind eye. Attorneys Faulkner and Harp orchestrated the ambush. This isn’t justice — it’s a railroad job steeped in secrecy, altered transcripts, and judicial complicity.

Shaka Cheka

Connecticut’s court system faces renewed scrutiny after reports surfaced of an internal “judicial intelligence” network operating beyond public oversight. Critics claim the system shields misconduct and suppresses constitutional rights under the guise of confidentiality. Judge Peter Brown’s recent protective order, sealing a 96-page report tied to a high-profile political commentator, has sparked outcry among legal observers and civil libertarians. They argue the order expands state secrecy at the expense of public accountability. The controversy underscores a broader concern: that Connecticut’s judiciary has evolved into a self-policing institution immune from the transparency it demands of others.

JACK DOYLE’S TOOTHPASTE DEFENSE: WE CAN’T PUT IT BACK

Connecticut’s criminal justice system faces new scrutiny after claims that prosecutors bypassed rules of venue and ignored constitutional safeguards. State’s Attorney Jack Doyle has been accused of shifting cases between judicial districts without authority, undermining due process and raising alarms about prosecutorial discretion. Critics argue his reasoning—that errors cannot be undone because “you can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube”—is a dangerous precedent that excuses violations rather than correcting them. Now, questions are mounting about how deeply such practices have taken root in the Nutmeg State, and whether judicial oversight will step in to restore accountability.

Arizona Family Court Revolt: Rep. Lisa Fink leads against racketeering, DCS failures, and mourns Charlie Kirk while defending free speech.

Arizona Family Court Revolt: Rep Lisa Fink Takes on Power Brokers and Defends Free Speech

Arizona Rep. Lisa Fink never planned to lead a family-court revolt. A desperate father’s call about “reunification camps” pushed her into battle. “This is not America. This is North Korea,” she said. Fink drafted SB 1372 banning camps, exposing what she calls systemic racketeering in Arizona’s courts. Judges ignore best-interest laws, order costly “therapeutic interventionists,” and silence children’s voices. She’s pushing bills to stop runaway custody orders, fix DCS failures, and support kinship care. Fink also mourns the assassination of Charlie Kirk, vowing to defend free speech. Her crusade now challenges power brokers in law, politics, and culture.

Chris Ambrose Abused Me: Mia Ambrose, 19, details abuse of her and her brothers. Courts ignored her pleas as he sues those who told the truth.

Chris Ambrose Abused Me: Daughter Mia Speaks, Courts Corrupt, and the Kassenoff Connection

On The Unknown Podcast, Mia Ambrose shattered Christopher Ambrose’s courtroom fictions. Now 19, she calls him only “Chris,” not “dad,” and accuses him of years of sexual, emotional, and physical abuse. She detailed locked doors, barred windows, and the isolation of herself and her brothers while Connecticut courts turned a blind eye. Meanwhile, Ambrose sues psychiatrist Dr. Bandy Lee, journalist Frank Parlato, and advocate Tina Swithin for reporting what Mia insists is true. The case mirrors Allan Kassenoff’s own legal warfare, revealing a chilling pattern: abusers weaponizing family courts and lawsuits to silence their critics.

James Fegel’s Reform Crusade: Marine veteran custody nightmare sparks a grassroots fight against Suffolk County family court corruption.

James Fegel’s Reform Crusade: Marine Veteran Turned Family Court Watchdog

James Fegel never expected to become a crusader. A Marine veteran and retired ironworker, Fegel stepped up to care for his young nephew after his brother’s sudden death. But instead of thanks, Suffolk County Family Court branded him a suspect and ripped the child from his care. That injustice lit a fire. Fegel turned his personal loss into a grassroots movement—Americans for Legal Reform—rallying families, veterans, and grandparents against what he calls “corrupt, closed-door courts.” With rallies, videos, and lawsuits, Fegel’s fight has become a battle cry: “Stand united for justice, for children, and for families across America.”

Meet Maryann Petri: From Family Court Horror to Slam the Gavel

Maryann Petri’s story is one of devastation turned into defiance. A nurse, mother, and survivor of Erie County family court, Petri lost her children in 2015 after false allegations — despite being twice cleared by CPS. Judges stripped her family, career, and health, leaving her near collapse. But Petri refused silence. She launched the podcast Slam the Gavel, authored books, and wrote The Mailbox, now a short film. With more than 800 podcast episodes, she amplifies the voices of families failed by the courts. Today, she stands as a national advocate demanding abolition of a corrupt system.

Another Sniper – Dan Rayfield Oregon AG

Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield is under fire for a controversial $10,000 fine levied against a South Carolina citizen accused of unauthorized practice of psychology. Critics argue the penalty is an unconstitutional assault on free speech, punishing political expression across state lines under the guise of professional regulation. The case raises alarms about state overreach, misuse of administrative proceedings, and potential violations of First and Fourteenth Amendment protections. With Oregon’s family courts already facing scrutiny, the move deepens concerns about whether elected officials are weaponizing state power to silence critics and chill constitutionally protected speech nationwide.

Judge Boots Black Journalist, Admits Race Was Reason?

An Oregon administrative hearing exploded into a constitutional fight when OAH Judge Jennifer H. Rackstraw booted Black investigative reporter Rick LaRivière. According to an unofficial transcript, Rackstraw answered “Yes” when asked if she was excluding him for being Black and a journalist, then claimed Oregon law required secrecy. LaRivière refused to leave. He demanded a written order to “file an emergency petition with the Federal District Court.” The state moved to delay. Rackstraw shut it down and reset it in person—promising LaRivière “will not be allowed in.” DOJ counsel Rachel E. Bertoni stayed silent on the record as the Star Chamber vibe spread.

Jewish Holiday Hatchet Job: Oregon OAH Ambushes Family Court Watchdog

The Oregon Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH) chose the eve of Rosh Hashanah to unleash a crushing 200-page Notice of Hearing on family court watchdog Jill Jones-Soderman. The founder of the Foundation for the Child Victims of the Family Courts (FCVFC), Soderman has long exposed judicial misconduct and systemic abuse. Now, Oregon regulators accuse her of “unlicensed practice” for sending a watchdog letter—an amicus-style filing constitutionally protected under the First Amendment’s Petition Clause. Critics call the OAH blitz a sham, a weaponized bureaucracy shielding corrupt courts. Court watchers are mobilizing. The fight isn’t just Soderman’s—it’s America’s.

RICO Redux in STL

Matt Grant’s refiled RICO complaint is rocking St. Louis federal court. The “family court mafia” crusader cut out the most outrageous parts of his first 170-page filing after Judge Joshua Divine shredded it as “plainly deficient many times over.” His new 81-page version strips out the State of Missouri, wild demands to purge judges, and focuses instead on a “criminal enterprise” he says runs family court like a racket. Some say he’s fixed it enough to reach discovery. Others call it still garbage, destined for the shredder. Now the battle lines are drawn over whether this legal Hail Mary survives.

Colorado Court Cartel: Rabbi Jacob Bellinsky ambushed by Colorado courts after Supreme Court filing service in retaliatory arrest.

Colorado Court Cartel: Rabbi Jailed After Supreme Court Filing Service Trap

Rabbi Jacob Bellinsky walked into a routine probation meeting and straight into a trap. The Colorado family court machine—already stung by his federal court victories—pounced on a false report from his ex-wife in Indian River County, Florida. What should have been a simple U.S. Supreme Court filing service became the bait for a retaliatory arrest. Judges Dinsmore Tuttle and Philip Brimmer are accused of weaponizing the law to silence him. On The Unknown Podcast, co-hosts Richard Luthmann and Michael Volpe call it “a brazen frame-up” and “retaliation, plain and simple.” The courtroom cartel has been exposed.

Judge Defies Brain Doctor, Hands Boy to Alleged Abuser

Cook County family court is in meltdown. Judge Kevin M. O’Donnell and attorney Wendy R. Morgan tried to force reunification therapy on 11-year-old Grayson Spear with his allegedly abusive father, Kevin Spear. World-renowned neurologist Dr. S. Gregory Hipskind warned that further contact risked “irreparable neurological harm.” When that scheme collapsed, Morgan pivoted to the “silver bullet” strategy, and O’Donnell signed a secret ex parte order flipping custody. Police are now hunting for the boy. But Grayson is missing, fueling outrage, fear, and calls for a federal crackdown on Chicago’s corrupt family courts.

COMMUNIST NEW YORK COURTS JAIL DISABLED DAD FOR LOVING HIS CHILD

Marc Fishman, a disabled Bronx father of four, is being jailed for 45 days after police admitted he committed no crime. His “offense” was attempting to visit his autistic son during a court-ordered, prepaid supervised visit. The officer on scene said Fishman acted without criminal intent—yet Westchester County prosecutors buried the evidence, denied his ADA rights, and pressed for jail. Fishman hasn’t seen his children since 2019. Critics are calling it “communist-style justice” in New York. Outrage is building as advocacy groups demand Governor Hochul act. The case could spark calls for a federal takeover of state courts.

STL RICO Case Falters

Matt Grant’s so-called “landmark” RICO case is collapsing under federal scrutiny. The 49-year-old St. Louis lawyer accused judges, lawyers, and even his ex-wife of running the “largest courthouse corruption scheme in Missouri history.” But Judge Joshua Divine torched Grant’s 170-page filing, calling it “scattershot” and “possibly vindictive.” Grant now faces a September 15 deadline to radically amend or face dismissal and sanctions. On The Unknown Podcast, Richard Luthmann and Michael Volpe blasted the complaint as suicidal. Meanwhile, sources close to his ex-wife accuse Grant of erratic behavior, endless custody filings, and even delusional paranoia.

Bergen NJ Banana Republic: Bandy Lee vs. the Family Court Cartel

In Hackensack, a courtroom erupted as Dr. Bandy X. Lee, Yale- and Harvard-trained forensic psychiatrist, stood pro se against Judge Jane Gallina-Mecca’s gag order. With Guardian ad Litem Evelyn Nissirios accused of running a “child slave trade,” the fight was no ordinary custody squabble. Legendary constitutional attorney Bruce Fein watched from the gallery, while activist Dave Weigel and his Family Court Fraud Warriors broadcast the spectacle. Dozens of reform advocates filled the room, demanding justice. Dr. Lee’s stand against judicial corruption isn’t just about Bergen County—it’s a battle for the Constitution, family integrity, and America’s soul.

Assassinations

The assassination of Charlie Kirk represents the ultimate form of lawless silencing. But political violence isn’t limited to a bullet from a rooftop sniper — it can also come cloaked in a judge’s robe. Judge David Gold’s arrest warrant against a political blogger shows the same contempt for the Constitution, using state power to muzzle dissent. Free speech, due process, and the rule of law fall victim to ideological zealotry. Whether enforced by rifle or gavel, the message is the same: speak against the establishment, and you’ll be punished. America faces an existential battle for its founding freedoms.

Alleged Psycho Pedo Ambrose’s defamation suit against Frank Parlato stumbles as claims of a “sent” Rule 4(d) packet lack proof. Lies catch up.

Alleged Psycho Pedo Ambrose Continues His Lies

Christopher Ambrose, the disgraced ex–TV writer branded by critics (including his own children) as an “alleged psycho pedo,” is suing investigative journalist Frank Parlato in federal court. Ambrose insists he already sent Parlato a Rule 4(d) waiver packet more than 30 days ago. Parlato checked his inboxes and archives—nothing. “Say it. Show it. Or fix it,” Parlato fired back, demanding proof of service or correction of the record. Ambrose, who has a history of lawsuits, now faces questions of perjury and honesty before the court. For now, the record shows crickets. Accuracy isn’t optional—it’s the law.

Matt Grant's RICO Falters: Joshua Divine blasts his 170-page complaint against the Missouri Family Court and warns of sanctions.

Matt Grant’s RICO Falters Against Missouri Family Court

Matt Grant’s bold RICO lawsuit against Missouri’s family court system is now teetering on the brink. On September 3, U.S. District Judge Joshua M. Divine blasted Grant’s 170-page complaint, calling it “plainly deficient many times over” and warning that sanctions may follow. Grant, a veteran St. Louis lawyer, styled himself as a crusader against what he calls a “Family Court Mafia,” but his sprawling allegations and sweeping remedies have left the court skeptical. Critics say Grant aimed too high. Now, the question looms: is the federal courthouse a refuge for justice—or another fortress of the swamp?

Richard Luthmann Drops Bombs: On Stand With Meg he calls Family Courts RICO-style rackets built on secrecy, silence, and extortion.

Richard Luthmann Drops Bombs on Broken Family Courts in ‘Stand With Meg’ Appearance

Richard Luthmann stormed onto Stand With Meg and set the place ablaze. The former Staten Island attorney turned investigative journalist tore into the family court racket with blunt force. He called the system a “legalized extortion ring” that chews up families and enriches insiders. Host Meghann Miller—herself a mother stripped of her children—joined in exposing how courts, CPS, and guardians collude in secrecy. Luthmann, who once survived a political takedown and four years in prison, declared: “Family court is the civil rights issue of our time.” His mission is clear: torch the darkness and drag corruption into daylight.
