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.

    Family Court Free Press: Wall Street dad Dave Weigel and journalist Richard Luthmann expose corruption, betrayal, and “journalistic treason.”

    Family Court Free Press Showdown: Wall Street Dad and Firebrand Journo Expose “Treason” in the System

      Wall Street whistleblower Dave Weigel and firebrand journalist Richard Luthmann are teaming up to blow the lid off America’s family court racket. Together with the Family Court Fraud Warrior Project, they accuse the system of systemic dishonesty, judicial corruption, and “journalistic treason.” Weigel calls Luthmann “a rare bird” with the guts to publish names and faces the mainstream media won’t touch. Their exposés have shifted power dynamics, sparked outrage, and ignited reform. But the fight has fractured reformers, with California journalist Susan Bassi accused of betraying victims by burying stories. The stakes are clear: Is press freedom already dead in family court?

      Christopher Ambrose's Fraudulent Script: fake poverty, hidden assets, custody court abuse, and a federal fraud affidavit exposed.

      Christopher Ambrose’s Fraudulent Script: Family Court, Federal Court, and Fake Poverty

        Christopher Ambrose plays victim while living large. The ex-TV writer seized custody of three children through family court maneuvering, then claimed financial ruin in federal court. Court filings show him hiding assets, underreporting rent, and transferring money into secret accounts while his ex-wife was left homeless. Now, Ambrose sues Dr. Bandy Lee, who scored him a chilling 32 out of 40 on the Hare Psychopathy Checklist. Ambrose calls her a liar. His affidavit tells another story. From a $2.2 million beach house to “broke” in front of a judge, Ambrose’s script is finally unraveling.

        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.

          Colorado Records Rat: Rabbi Bellinsky says smoking gun email damns Colorado’s top court administrator in perjury records scandal.

          Colorado Records Rat?: Steven Vasconcellos

            Rabbi Jacob Bellinsky, fresh off a landmark Tenth Circuit victory, is now battling Colorado’s top judicial administrator over public records. In a Denver courtroom, Bellinsky accuses State Court Administrator Steven Vasconcellos of perjury for swearing “no records exist” about judicial misconduct complaints. Emails tell a different story. One August 2024 email assured Bellinsky complaints were “actively investigated.” Another November 2024 email admitted a misconduct memo was “completed back in August” but withheld for five months. Bellinsky says these contradictions prove a cover-up. He calls it “a constitutional emergency.” The case could force unprecedented transparency—or validate systemic concealment.

            Susan Bassi’s Journalistic Treason

              A bitter feud has erupted inside the family court reform movement, now dubbed “Susan Bassi’s Journalistic Treason.” Once hailed as a transparency crusader, California journalist Susan Bassi stands accused of betraying protective parents by torpedoing the case of Julie Holburn, a mother fighting to expose abuse and corruption in Orange County. Richard Luthmann, Michael Volpe, and Family Court Fraud Warrior Project leader Dave Weigel have blasted Bassi as a turncoat protecting the very system she once vowed to fight. The fallout has sparked a civil war, leaving the reform movement fractured and Bassi’s credibility under fire.

              Unhinged Ambrose Floods Court with baseless lawsuits against critics. Will CT Judge Nagala finally stop suspended lawyer's courtroom circus?

              Unhinged Ambrose Floods Courts with Baseless Lawsuits

                Christopher Ambrose, once an NYU-trained lawyer and Hollywood writer, has morphed into Connecticut’s most notorious vexatious litigant. Suspended and disgraced, Ambrose now clogs federal courts with frivolous lawsuits targeting anyone who dares expose him. His latest filings against Dr. Bandy Lee and journalist Frank Parlato showcase a pattern of weaponizing the legal system with rambling, baseless complaints. From seizing his ex-wife’s inheritance and custody of their children to suing critics with invented claims, Ambrose thrives on abuse of process. The question: why do Connecticut’s courts still enable his psychopathic crusade?

                Costa Mesa Cops Stonewall: PD hiding public records tied to journalist Julie Holburn’s corruption probe into Orange County family courts.

                Costa Mesa Cops Stonewall Reporter on Court Corruption Files

                  Costa Mesa Police are hiding something. Investigative journalist Julie M. Anderson-Holburn says they’re stonewalling her public records request in a case tied directly to her explosive reporting on Orange County family court corruption. Holburn requested police reports contradicting court claims made by high-powered attorney David Monarch. But the cops won’t release a word—citing “privacy” and ignoring their obligations under California law. Critics say it’s retaliation for Holburn’s journalism. CMPD’s excuses have sparked national outrage. “They’re using every loophole to keep those reports in the dark,” says Holburn. Now she’s going public—again. Costa Mesa may have picked the wrong journalist to cross.

                  Secret Custody Orders, Rogue GALs, and Corruption dominate Idaho Family Court Reform at the Child Custody and Domestic Relations Task Force.

                  Secret Custody Orders, ‘Rogue GALs’ Under Fire at Idaho Family Court Hearing

                    Idaho’s Child Custody and Domestic Relations Task Force heard explosive testimony on July 31 about family court failures that destroy families. Witnesses described secret custody orders, unaccountable “rogue GALs,” and a “cash-for-conflict” court system that enriches lawyers while bankrupting parents. Lawmakers, including Sen. Tammy Nichols and Rep. Heather Scott, vowed reform. Arizona Rep. Rachel Keshel demanded jury trials in custody cases and denounced judicial bias. Parents accused courts of weaponizing “parental alienation” and ignoring abuse. GAL Kacey Wall defended the system, while critics said she embodies the problem. Nichols pledged reform is coming: “If there’s a pattern, we’re going to act.”

                    Colorado Judicial Jungle: Rabbi Jacob Bellinsky exposes a shadow court system, demanding prosecution for constitutional violations and fraud.

                    Rabbi’s Landmark Court Win Exposes Colorado Family Court Corruption

                      A Colorado rabbi just made legal history. Rabbi Jacob Bellinsky won a stunning reversal at the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals after years of battling family court corruption. The appellate court revived his lawsuits, which accuse his ex-wife, her lawyer, state judges, and officials of orchestrating a fraudulent custody and criminal campaign to destroy his family and reputation. The ruling strikes a blow against the widespread abuse of judicial immunity and abstention doctrines that have long protected bad actors. Bellinsky’s fight is now the national symbol of resistance against lawless family court systems.

                      Veronica Sanchez

                      Judge Sanchez’s Gag Order War on Mother and Medicine

                        A D.C. Family Court judge is facing national backlash after gagging a protective mother and banning emergency medical care for her brain-damaged children without prior court permission. Judge Veronica Sanchez’s draconian orders favor Joseph “Jay” Scallan, a DHS official known for robot sex antics and child neglect. Despite dire medical warnings from top neurologist Dr. S. Gregory Hipskind—dubbed the “Michael Jordan of SPECT scans”—the court has ignored expert advice and punished the mother. Critics are calling it a Deep State cover-up, where politics trumps medicine and justice. The children remain at risk—and their mother silenced by force of law.

                        Idaho Senator Tammy Nichols exposes family court abuses—secret custody orders and rogue GALs weaponized to punish parents.

                        Idaho Senator Tammy Nichols Exposes Family Court’s Secret ‘Legal Weapons’

                          Idaho State Senator Tammy Nichols is blowing the whistle on what she calls the family court system’s “legal weapons.” In a fiery episode of The Unknown Podcast, Nichols joined journalists Michael Volpe and Richard Luthmann to expose how judges and attorneys use ex parte custody orders and unaccountable guardians ad litem (GALs) to steamroll parents—mostly mothers—without hearings, evidence, or appeal. These tools are used nationwide to silence and bankrupt the powerless. Nichols calls it a civil rights crisis and vows sweeping reform through her statewide task force. With media silent, the grassroots are rising—and Idaho just lit the fuse.

                          DC Deep State Daddy: DHS official caught in robot sex, child abuse scandals promoted as elite DC family protects him. Judge ignores science.

                          DC Deep State Daddy: DHS Scandal, Robot Dog Sex, and the Family Court Cover-Up

                            Joseph “Jay” Scallan III, a Department of Homeland Security official, is at the center of a scandal involving robot dog sex, documented child abuse, and elite court corruption. Despite SPECT scans showing neurological damage to his children and warnings from a top brain trauma expert, Scallan received a DHS promotion, not prosecution. Protected by his oligarch family—real estate developer Drew Scallan and the Chevy Chase Club elite—Jay has faced no consequences. Meanwhile, D.C. Family Court forces the traumatized children into “reunification therapy,” ignoring expert warnings and pleas for help. In Washington, connections still trump child safety.

                            Idaho Family Court Corruption Confronted: Idaho joins Arizona, Florida, and Texas in pushing sweeping family court reforms.

                            IDAHO FAMILY COURT CORRUPTION CONFRONTED

                              Idaho lawmakers have stepped into the national spotlight as they confront widespread corruption in the family court system. On July 7, 2025, the Idaho Legislature’s Child Custody and Domestic Relations Task Force hosted a landmark hearing inspired by Arizona’s successful reform model. Dr. Bandy X. Lee, an international expert on domestic violence, delivered searing testimony, calling family courts “enablers of abusers.” Arizona State Senator Mark Finchem warned of judicial overreach and offered solutions. With public outcry rising and other states like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee pushing reform, Idaho could be next to flip the script on family court injustice.

                              Thunder Strikes Back: Michael “Thunder” Phillips joins The Unknown Podcast to expose the truth about corrupt family courts.

                              THUNDER STRIKES BACK ON FAMILY COURT

                                Family court has become America’s most dangerous courtroom—and Maryland attorney Jeff Reichert is its latest casualty. On The Unknown Podcast, co-hosts Richard Luthmann and Michael Volpe are joined by Michael “Thunder” Phillips to expose how Reichert lost his son despite a solid custody order, damning evidence against the mother, and overwhelming judicial misconduct. Phillips draws eerie parallels to his own case and calls for family court reform. From Post Malone to Elon Musk, they expose how money shields celebrities, while everyday parents are destroyed. This isn’t justice—it’s a system fueled by power, politics, and profit.

                                Family Court's Star Chamber: Dr. Bandy Lee sues NJ Judge over unconstitutional gag orders and judicial abuse exposing systemic corruption.

                                FAMILY COURT’S STAR CHAMBER: BERGEN COUNTY, NEW JERSEY

                                  Dr. Bandy X. Lee, a former Yale professor and Harvard-trained forensic psychiatrist, is taking on the heart of judicial darkness in Bergen County, New Jersey. In a blistering federal lawsuit, Dr. Lee accuses Chief Judge Jane Gallina-Mecca, GAL Evelyn Nissirios, and Judge Michael Antoniewicz of weaponizing gag orders to silence her First Amendment-protected speech. With over 2,500 signatures on an impeachment petition and constitutional scholar Bruce Fein representing her in federal court, Dr. Lee’s battle is drawing national attention. “They may have gagged me in court,” she said, “but they will never silence the truth.”

                                  Robot Dog Daddy: DHS official defends robot dog sex, mocks son, and gets custody. Court ignores brain trauma scans and punishes protective mother.

                                  ROBOT SEX PROMOTION SCANDAL

                                    Joseph Scallan, a DHS official, defended sex with robot dogs. Now he’s promoted—while D.C. courts ignore brain trauma in his children documented by top experts. Scallan shared a graphic video showing robotic dog sex, claiming “It’s not bestiality if it’s not a real dog.” Days later, he landed a $189,950 federal promotion with Top-Secret clearance. At the same time, D.C. Family Court discredited brain scans from top neurologist Dr. S. Gregory Hipskind—personally tapped by Dr. Daniel Amen to help lead the White House Brain Health Initiative. The kids suffer. The father profits. And the court sides with the abuser.

                                    Fake Family Court Police: Meet the Justice Pretenders

                                      Meet the Justice Pretenders—the so-called “Family Court Police” that operate with zero oversight and questionable authority. These part-time enforcers don badges from Party City, show up in mismatched uniforms, and terrify families with threats of child abduction. They operate only during business hours, moonlight as clowns by night, and claim to follow “court orders” that rarely exist. With no trauma training and six-figure taxpayer-funded salaries, they rip kids from homes under the guise of child safety. Who are they? What are their qualifications? And how do they get away with it? Let’s expose this system’s worst-kept secret.

                                      My Three Minutes Campaign: Parents post powerful 3-minute videos exposing family court abuse in viral campaign aimed at DOJ and DOGE.

                                      MY THREE MINUTES CAMPAIGN BLOWS THE ROOF OFF FAMILY COURT CORRUPTION

                                        The “My Three Minutes” campaign is exploding across social media, led by the Family Court Fraud Warrior Project. Parents from coast to coast are picking up their phones and posting short, powerful videos exposing corruption, abuse, and retaliation inside America’s family courts. From forced gag orders to unlawful child removals, these raw testimonies are building a blockchain-style archive of systemic fraud. Project founder David Weigel says the goal is simple: collect 1,000 verified stories and blast them in front of DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s office. This isn’t protest—it’s data. And it’s becoming impossible to ignore.

                                        Arizona's Family Court Scandal: Gov. Hobbs vetoes HB 2256, sparking outrage over family court-ordered abuse. Critics call it "sadism."

                                        ARIZONA’S FAMILY COURT SCANDAL

                                          Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs is under fire for vetoing a bill that aimed to protect children from court-ordered abuse disguised as “therapy.” HB 2256, amended by Senator Mark Finchem and sponsored by Representative Rachel Keshel, would have barred courts from forcing families to pay for controversial reunification programs without consent. Critics accuse Hobbs of siding with court-connected profiteers over traumatized children. “This decision protects the profit motive and self-dealing,” said Finchem. Advocates say the veto enables financial extortion and shields unlicensed actors preying on broken families. Jill Jones Soderman called Hobbs “a sadist” for enabling abuse under the guise of justice.
