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?

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.
