Black Widow Lawyer Seductress and Destroyer: Ulster lawyer Elizabeth Faulkner accused of sex, corruption, and silencing Helen Garber.

Black Widow Lawyer Seductress and Destroyer

    In Ulster County, New York, a lawyer dubbed the “Black Widow” has spun a web of deceit around the family court system. Elizabeth Faulkner, infamous for seducing and marrying her clients, now stands accused of masterminding a courtroom racket built on lies, intimidation, and sex-for-service deals. Nurse practitioner Helen Garber dared to expose her—and paid the price. Missing evidence, gag orders, and judicial cover-ups followed. Investigative journalists Richard Luthmann and Michael Volpe, with Family Court watchdog Dave Weigel, are pulling back the curtain on what they call “a court of injustice.” The question: Who will stop it?

    TORTURE IN INDIANA: Kids Forced Back to Abusive Dad

      Indiana family court is under fire after Judge Alicia Gooden is forcing three children back into the hands of their abusive father, Nicolas Shaffer, through controversial “reunification therapy.” Despite the kids’ desperate cries—“I hate him… he’s ruined my life”—the court-appointed therapist Lauren Glanders has punished them for resisting, grounding them for refusing visits. Advocates like Jill Jones Soderman call it “sanctioned torture.” Neurologist Dr. S. Gregory Hipskind issued a medical order banning forced contact, warning of severe trauma. Still, the court presses forward. Critics say this is less therapy and more a cash-fueled industry of abuse.

      Brain Scans Broken Systems: Family Court Warriors join Amen Clinics in using SPECT scans to expose trauma, fight injustice, and drive reform.

      BRAIN SCANS BROKEN SYSTEMS

        The Family Court Fraud Warrior Project (FCFWP) is turning pain into proof. In a powerful alliance with the Amen Clinics, founder Dave Weigel and over 2,200 family court survivors are becoming educated about how brain scans can expose trauma the courts ignored. Amen’s SPECT imaging doesn’t just diagnose—it visualizes PTSD, anxiety, and abuse-related brain damage. “This isn’t emotional fluff,” said Weigel. “This is hard data the courts can’t deny.” Legal and Forensics Manager Marla Owens put it bluntly: “We can prove the trauma.” Together, they’re building a revolution: a movement where brain science is justice’s new weapon.

        Ding Dong Dead Moskowitz: Her death reignites debate over GAL immunity, judicial overreach, and Connecticut’s broken family court system.

        Ding Dong Dead Moskowitz

          The death of Emily J. Moskowitz has reignited fierce debate over Connecticut’s family court system. Known both as a veteran attorney and a controversial guardian ad litem, Moskowitz was praised by the judiciary for her service and simultaneously condemned by critics as a symbol of unchecked power and judicial overreach. Central to this storm is the landmark Carrubba v. Moskowitz decision, which granted GALs absolute immunity—a legal shield that many argue enables abuse, corruption, and financial exploitation of families in crisis. As praise and scorn pour in, the battle over Moskowitz’s legacy continues to stir outrage and reflection across Connecticut.
