Ding Dong She’s Gone!

    Judge Elizabeth Bozzuto’s long, chaotic reign over Connecticut family court is finally finished. After twenty-five years of fear, fury, and scorched-earth rulings that shattered families statewide, the most infamous figure in the Nutmeg Judiciary has slunk off into taxpayer-funded retirement. Her career leaves behind a crater of broken parents, traumatized kids, and legal carnage unmatched by any judge of her era. Bozzuto became a symbol of everything wrong in Connecticut’s family court system — unchecked power, sealed secrets, and decisions delivered with shock-troop aggression. Now the Blog’s original villain exits the stage at last. Few shed tears. Many sigh in relief.

    Preacher-Turned-Politician Leads Family Court Reform

    Preacher-Turned-Politician Leads Family Court Reform

      South Carolina firebrand Gil Gatch is done watching families get steamrolled by a family-court system he says rewards bias, secrecy, and incompetence. The former minister and Georgetown-trained lawyer is pushing bold reforms to rein in guardian ad litem abuses, shut down backdoor deals, and restore judicial accountability. In an exclusive interview, Gatch explains why GALs have become “the judge in a lot of circumstances,” how temporary orders trap parents for years, and why he distrusts slow-rolling ad hoc committees. Meanwhile, Arizona and Idaho lawmakers are proving that sunlight-driven investigations can force long-overdue reforms. The battle for America’s children is underway.

      Deaf Mom Mega Influencer Taci Belisle Fights Violent Felon Ex in Family Court Circus

        Deaf mega-influencer Taci Belisle, a mother of three with over 3 million followers, is locked in a brutal interstate custody war against her ex-husband—a convicted kidnapper and violent felon. Belisle, the full-time caregiver of her terminally ill son Ryder, says the family court system has become a “circus” that enables abusers while silencing victims. Judges in Washington and Ohio now clash over jurisdiction, while attorneys bend the rules and mock her pleas for protection. “If it can happen to me, it can happen to you,” Belisle warns, as she fights to keep her children safe from a system gone mad.

        Criminal Undertones: CT Judge and Cops Accused of Jailing Blogger for Opinions

          A Connecticut free-speech case is exploding into a full-blown constitutional controversy. Local blogger Robert Pabich was arrested after posting online criticisms of State Senator Matt Lesser, sparking outrage among civil-liberties advocates who say Rocky Hill police and Judge Jesse Giddings trampled the First Amendment. Officers used a “risk warrant” to seize Pabich’s firearms before charging him with stalking and disorderly conduct—based solely on political expression. Critics say this criminalizes dissent and weaponizes the justice system against unpopular viewpoints. The case has become a flashpoint in the national debate over hate-speech laws, judicial bias, and freedom of political speech.

          Black Widow's 400‑Page Meltdown: Elizabeth Faulkner’s smear collapses as Judge Rakov recuses. Weigel: “Venom and vengeance, not justice.”

          Black Widow’s 400‑Page Meltdown

            Elizabeth Faulkner, known across the Hudson Valley as the “Ulster County Black Widow,” just hit a wall. Her 400-page legal broadside against protective mother Helen Garber—stuffed with falsehoods and personal vendettas—was swatted down by Judge Sarah Rakov, who recused herself rather than dignify the spectacle. According to Family Court Fraud Warrior Project founder Dave Weigel, Faulkner’s motion was “a smear campaign dressed up as law.” Court insiders say it was pure retaliation—an attempt to jail Garber and steal her child. But this time, the Black Widow’s web may finally be unraveling under public scrutiny and legal sunlight.

            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?

              VAWA’s Witch’s Brew: Richard Luthmann exposes how billions fuel court corruption, false abuse claims, and bias under the guise of “justice.”

              VAWA Witches Brew: Luthmann Breaks the Spell

                “VAWA’s Witch’s Brew” is a fiery takedown of the Violence Against Women Act’s modern incarnation—a law that began with noble intent but now funds bureaucracy and bias. Richard Luthmann rips into the “witches” who defend VAWA as gender-neutral, exposing how billions in grants have turned courts into profit machines, judges into accountants, and families into fuel. In a system where allegations mean dollars, justice dies by paperwork. Luthmann’s blunt fix: limit family courts to property and custody. “Judges aren’t Solomon—they’re accountants with gavels.” VAWA’s spell is broken; accountability is the new magic word.

                FYGA Paul Boyne: A polite email to a Connecticut judge sparks outrage, exposing the Nutmeg State’s deep contempt for the First Amendment.

                FYGA Paul Boyne

                  Paul Boyne, founder of The Family Court Circus and champion of the constitutional republic, is once again under judicial fire in Connecticut’s “Nutmeg” courts. His crime? Sending an email. Boyne’s polite but pointed message to Judges John Newson and Gerald Harmon sparked outrage among the black-robed elite, who responded not with reason—but with rage. “INAPPROPRIATE,” Newson thundered. In a state where “FYGA” (“F*** You Go Away”) is the unofficial judicial motto, Boyne’s message was treated not as a plea for justice, but as heresy against the sacred cult of Connecticut law.

                  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.

                    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.

                      Timely Fashion

                        Connecticut’s criminal justice circus has collapsed into the absurd. Judge Peter Brown, instead of addressing constitutional violations, now demands legal arguments over the meaning of “timely fashion.” Prosecutor Jack Doyle, earning $215,000 a year, can’t even file charges in the correct district, yet insists due process rights simply “expire.” Brown, described by critics as a “trained ape for his masters,” repeatedly refuses to specify the supposed criminal speech at issue. Protected political expression is rebranded as “stalking,” and the judiciary plays along. The case now hinges on semantics, not law—proof of a judiciary independent of justice itself.

                        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.

                          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.”

                              Streeto’s Connecticut Judicial Candy Scandal

                                In a stunning collapse of judicial decorum, Judge Melissa Streeto of Connecticut’s Superior Court dropped more than just opinions — she delivered “bags of dicks” as gag gifts to her clerks. Literally. The Rockville-based judge, known for her rulings on habeas petitions, left x-rated candy shaped like male genitalia along with affectionate notes on subordinate desks, all while donning her latex beneath the black robe of justice. The Judicial Branch is spinning, with Chief Judge Elizabeth Bozzuto offering weak reassurances while Streeto “self-reports” to the Judicial Review Council.

                                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.

                                  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.

                                    The New Guard

                                      On September 11, 2025, Connecticut’s family court insiders will gather at the elite Elm City Club to celebrate their own. The Council for Non-Adversarial Divorce will honor psychologist Sidney S. Horowitz for his decades of influence on custody litigation. Critics say this is no celebration — it’s a coronation for the next generation of judges and court vendors who profit from prolonged custody fights. Families, especially mothers, allege a system rigged for profit, with entrenched actors using “the best interest of the child” to justify private pay appointments, unchecked discretion, and court-empowered trauma. Reformers call it legalized racketeering in plain sight.

                                      First Amendment Allergic Reaction: Judges in the Mist

                                        In Connecticut’s twisted judicial theater, Judge Peter L. Brown nearly choked on the First Amendment—triggered by blog posts and Joette Katz’s authoritarian musings. The blog that drives judges mad, The Family Court Circus, has long skewered Katz, a former justice turned censor-in-chief. Her 2022 op-ed, “When Is Enough Enough?”, drew fire for labeling satire as criminal “threats.” Now, a courtroom transcript reveals Judge Brown’s allergic meltdown over the blog’s political speech, exposing the fragile egos and coordinated efforts of Katz, Gold, Bozzuto, and their DEI-infused judicial gang to weaponize the courts against free expression. The First Amendment’s enemies wear robes.

                                        Judicial Speech Police

                                          In the People’s Republic of Connecticut, free speech now comes with a security review. A shadowy branch within the judiciary—led by DEI apparatchiks like Chief Justice Raheem Mullins and Marshal Services Director O’Donovan Murphy—has redefined citizen dissent as “threats” against judges. Under the guise of “judicial security,” the state now spies on political speech, targeting bloggers and critics with an unaccountable Office of Protective Intelligence. But where are the arrests, prosecutions, or public threat definitions? Nowhere. The speech police are here, cloaked in robes and race-baiting rhetoric, declaring war on the First Amendment—because the judiciary can’t take the heat.
