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.”

    Staten Island Family Court Shame: Father Marcello Roque says he was assaulted, silenced, and denied justice by court staff.

    STATEN ISLAND FAMILY COURT SHAME

      Marcello Roque, a Staten Island father, walked into Richmond County Family Court on May 27, 2025, to protect his daughter. Instead, he says he was assaulted, ejected, and silenced. Court staff blocked his petition. A clerk allegedly said, “This court doesn’t follow constitutional law.” When he began recording, officers swarmed him. One pushed him down the stairs despite his known injuries. Roque filed a police report—but says no action has been taken. His seven-year battle has exposed a judicial system he says protects abusers, silences whistleblowers, and tramples parental rights. Now, he’s demanding answers—and justice.

      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.

        Georgia Family Court Whistleblower: Maureen Meadows reveals racial bias, GAL fraud, and a “star chamber” of secret lawyer discipline.

        Georgia Family Court Whistleblower Blows the Lid Off Secret Discipline System

          Maureen Meadows, a family law attorney turned whistleblower, says Georgia’s family court system is “rigged” to protect big law partners and crush parents. Her divorce exposed fake reports, false statements, and a “star chamber” of secret lawyer discipline. “They lied and got away with it,” she said. David Weigel, founder of the Family Court Fraud Warrior Project, says legal fiduciaries get a free pass while Wall Street fiduciaries face constant scrutiny. “It’s astounding,” Weigel said. Meadows wants federal oversight, warning: “If they can do this to me, imagine what they’re doing to parents who can’t fight back.”

          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.

            The New Jersey Devil: Diane Womer blames journalist Richard Luthmann for exposing corruption in NJ Family Court.

            THE NEW JERSEY DEVIL IN THE COURTROOM?

              In a fiery moment inside Sussex County Family Court, Diane Womer, head of Family Matters of Morris County, branded journalist Richard Luthmann “the devil.” Her accusation came not in defense of a child’s safety—but in frustration over Luthmann’s growing exposés targeting the shady underside of New Jersey’s family court. From TheFamilyCourtCircus.com to The Unknown Podcast, Luthmann and co-host Michael Volpe are ripping the lid off corruption, favoritism, and profiteering in court-appointed supervision schemes. As public outrage builds and reform efforts mount, insiders like Womer—who wine and dine judges while cashing in on forced visitation—are seeing their empire threatened.

In the lyrics, he found a haunting mirror of his custody battle: the confusion, the emotional wreckage, and the systemic injustice. Family court, he says, isn’t a place of resolution—it’s a war zone dressed in robes. His battle isn’t over territory, but over time with his son. This isn’t just his war. It’s a national tragedy played out in courtrooms every day. And for him, Civil War isn’t a song—it’s a siren screaming for justice.
