Barry Goldstein Interview 12 Sep 2010

. . .

.......................................In most cases mothers are pathologized or demonized in order to create the appearance of a justification for the extreme actions taken. When the bad decisions backfire in a way that demonstrates even to the courts that the wrong decision was made, the defenders of the courts like to believe these cases constitute the exceptions to the usual good job done by courts. There is now a large body of research about these cases that show there are too many cases with extreme results and flawed practices to be conveniently dismissed as exceptions.” -Barry Goldstein in A Cancer Spreading in the Custody Court System on 16 Sep 2010

. . .

..............................This is another reason why the Battered Mothers Custody Conference is so valuable. At least for that one weekend each year, we are among friends, we can speak the truth, the reality may not be pleasant but at least we can escape the pretend world of the courts and the abusers. It is important for protective mothers to know they are not alone. Other wonderful people are going through the same attacks and being pathologized by unqualified ‘experts.’” -Barry Goldstein in History of the Battered Mothers Custody Conference on 8 Dec 2010

. . .

....... My profile? Intact. Fortunately my own dad was there to stop his fist. ....... Then the courts gave him our baby and finished me off.
PS - To those of you who might think I am nothing but an interfering, critical, histrionic nitwit, let me just say the Supreme Court of Virginia visits my Web site almost every day.

Yes, Shivani, “sadly Brigitte Deel doesn’t have a facebook.” She has, however, a mother who loves her very much. This is not a secret neighbors at Belmont Country Club should be keeping from her, that is, if she is truly loved by them. I hope the community will lead my daughter to your facebook page.

A mother won her "greatest fight" by refusing to submit to the judge who tried to abuse her. Click on her video, and as you scroll down my blog, listen for what this non-offending mother told that custody judge who played bully and lost. -Veronique Wyvell

. . .

ADVISORY ... FAIRFAX COURTHOUSE SLAUGHTERHOUSE For Fit Mothers: Virginia judges say a father may hurt the mother of his child, by abusing her, without hurting his chances of gaining custody (mgbb). Judges surveyed for Influences on Judges' Decisions in Child Custody Disputes in the Commonwealth of Virginia further reveal that children over five go to fathers more than they go to mothers when cases go to court (pdf). Pages 4, 6, 7, 20, 21, 23, 24, 29, 30, 38, 39, 40, 41, 53, 55, and 57 in House Document No. 24, A 2001 Report of The Supreme Court of Virginia Office of The Executive Secretary to The Governor and The General Assembly of Virginia, are especially relevant to the current trend of awarding custody of children to fathers who are abusive, controlling, manipulative, violent men, narcissists, and sociopaths (oes). {According to a 1996 report by the Am. Psychological Assoc., fathers who batter mothers are twice as likely as non-violent men to seek sole custody of children (apa).}

. . .

WARNING ... VIRGINIA COURTHOUSES SLAUGHTERHOUSES For Fit Mothers: In Virginia, rulings by custody judges may result in destitution (even bankruptcy) and childlessness for women who are fit mothers leaving an abusive man and escaping a violent relationship. “Custody transfers to abusive men are rare” and other myths as reported by the American Bar Association Commission on Domestic Violence (ABA Ten Myths, 2006), the Leadership Council on Child Abuse and Interpersonal Violence (LC Six Myths, 2006), and the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges Family Violence Department (NCJFCJ Seven Myths, 2003) -- though still rumored by the public -- contribute to the butchering of fit mothers everyday by our state bench. All fit mothers hoping to preserve their resources and their parenthoods should understand those misconceptions now officially recognized -- though still rejected by the public -- about the well-studied connection between “intimate partner violence” and “child custody litigation” before entering any courtroom of our Commonwealth of Virginia. If you are a fit mother who was slaughtered by a state judge in a disputed case involving custody of a child you produced with an abusive and violent man, please join your sisters each fall in Richmond for JUDICIAL INTERVIEWS. {I will post 2010 event date, time, place and relevant vitals here by mid November, or parents may contact Mary Kate Felch directly. -Veronique W. on 10.5.10} ALL MAULED MOMS FROM ALL ACROSS VIRGINIA SHOULD PLAN TO BE IN HOUSE ROOM C OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY BUILDING IN DOWNTOWN RICHMOND FOR 'JUDICIAL INTERVIEWS OF INCUMBENTS 2010' ON DECEMBER 10 ALL DAY LONG (Starts at 8:30AM). {I will post here the link for the Felch Agenda & Interview Schedule. -V.

NORTHERN VIRGINIA JUDGE CONFRONTED BY LOCAL MOMS OUSTED

A mother's testimony...took out a Fairfax County circuit judge. The same court had denied her motions to disqualify Zuckerman and remove him from her case.

Our carnivalesque judicial selection process, the clowning around starts here . . .
House Room C of the General Assembly Building in Richmond, on December 10, 2010, in the moments before it would begin to fill eventually to near capacity with concerned citizens from all over Virginia; many came armed with speeches to oppose the re-appointment of incumbent judges to another term for this year’s “Judicial Interviews.” {Missed it Friday? Don’t fret, there’s always next year. Your offending judge just might be up for re-appointment in Dec. of 2011. So look for that judge’s name in this preliminary list (which is subject to change as judges advance to another court, retire, resign, die or are fired because people just like YOU got involved in this effort to remove unfit, corrupt or otherwise disabled judges), and if you see your judge listed, know that it's not too soon for you to begin to prepare for “Judicial Interviews of Incumbents 2011”: Richard Wallerstein, 7/1/2006-6/30/2012; Glenn Clayton, 10/1/2006-9/30/2012; Frank Somerville, 7/1/2006-6/30/2012; James Almand, 2/1/2004-1/31/2012… Continues on Facebook}

A circus, with our GA apt to certify sub-judges, circuit chiefs do a lot of the hiring

…How can this happen? Why do judges in Virginia issue court orders that can make an innocent-enough person feel like the victim of a “hate crime” when some sensibly administered justice would have sufficed? This can happen to people in Virginia because the judicial selection and re-selection process is deformed and has created a judiciary that is inbred which is producing even greater deformity as judicial rulings deteriorate and as judicial respect--for the dignity and the resources of litigants--decline.... ...Furthermore, I have noticed, when a judge advances to another court in mid-term, his or her interview is postponed, that is, delayed by the length of the term associated with that particular court (minus the number of years remaining in the old term): 6 years for district court, 8 for circuit, 8 for appeals and 12 for supreme. With the Judicial Performance Evaluation (JPE) program now cancelled by decision of the 2009 legislative session, “interviews,” known officially as “Judicial Interviews of Incumbents,” is the only screening mechanism in place, acting to protect citizen-consumers of legal services from defective judges. The event is annual and it really is Virginia’s ultimate oversight agency for the judiciary because even “Judicial Inquiry and Review Commission” board members must submit to “interviews.” But, and especially since most members of the general public do not go to “interviews,” it is mostly a “rubber-stamp affair.” Citizens, tragically, are skipping “interviews” because it is such a poorly promoted event, and sitting judges, apparently, are skipping “interviews” because jurists promoted before the end of their term slip through such a poorly designed system for screening them....

I personally receive calls, e-mails, and letters from protective mothers all over this country, as well as overseas, begging for help with their cases. The overriding theme is that their abusive ex-partner already has won or is about to "win" custody of their children. Ladies, think this could never happen to YOU? All you need to do is have a biological child with someone who is psychopathic, narcissistic, abusive, or otherwise sick enough to be willing--in his efforts to harm you--to cause massive harm to your child, as well. His task is simple enough; all he has to do is lie and manipulate the court system, making wild claims that you are a "fabricator," "crazy," "addicted," or an "alienator." He can then pay off all the court agents who are willing to do his bidding and take everything he says as the gospel truth, in exchange for his right to exercise power, control, and abuse over you and your kids until they reach majority age. The family court system, as it seems to currently operate, amounts to little more than a black market that gives children and babies to the highest bidder. The ONLY thing keeping this Potemkin village-like fiasco going in our family courts is the secrecy that cloaks the misdeeds. We need a deeply serious and impartial investigation of the family court systems of all 50 states, conducted by authorities with the will and the power to massively reform this corrupt machine. See http://www.batteredmotherscustodyconference.org/ for additional documentation about the family court fiasco. -Dr. Mo Therese Hannah, BMCC Chair and Protective Mothers Advocate, in public comment two years ago, in 2008

Dr. Phil is now talking about it. If you missed the original airing of “Crisis in Family Court” on 14 April 2010, catch a rerun by checking his website regularly for its list of future shows. (“Crisis in Family Court” was repeated recently on August 14 and August 18; DVDs and transcripts can be ordered at DrPhil.com)

. . .

Dr. Phil is looking for victims of “parental alienation” for an upcoming show: “Victim of Parental Alienation?” (“Do you believe that your ex-spouse, or soon-to-be ex-spouse, is preventing you from seeing your child? Do you believe that your ex is currently committing ‘parental alienation’ by making it very difficult OR preventing you from seeing your son or daughter? If you would like Dr. Phil’s help in mediating this issue and you’re also willing to appear on TV, please e-mail your story.”) Upcoming show topics also include: “Ex-Spouse Causing Your Child To Hate You?” (“Are you separated or recently divorced and you fear that your ex-spouse is alienating you from your child? Have you noticed a negative change in your child’s attitude and behavior towards you? Do you feel that your ex-spouse is the reason why your child is mistreating or ignoring you? If you would like Dr. Phil’s help in mediating this issue and you’re also willing to appear on TV, please e-mail your story.”) and “Who’s Right???” (“Is there a person in your life that blames you for everything? Do you want them to accept responsibility and end this blame game? Is someone in your life not admitting the harm they've caused you? Do they refuse to admit they are wrong? If so and YOU ARE WILLING TO APPEAR ON THE SHOW, tell us your story.”) -VW on 9.7.10

Q: What does the Zuckerman say? A: “Quack! Quack!”
Court appointee William B. Zuckerman, Ph.D., telephoned a leader of the fathers’ rights group in Virginia and offered to help member fathers win custody. DR.

Mother's Day 2010 at the White House

Peaceful Silent Vigil at The White House in Washington DC on 9 May 2010 Mother’s Day. "A cottage industry of mental health professionals and attorneys with cozy relationships with family court judges routinely bankrupt families with enormous court-ordered fees and often recommend that children be placed with their sexually or physically abusive fathers. Family court judges frequently ignore evidence of abuse, refuse to hear direct testimony from the children, and rubberstamp their cronies’ recommendations. Nurturing mothers are forced to pay costly fees to attend supervised visits with the children they raised, watching helplessly as their children continue to report abuse by their abusers to uncaring visitation monitors. Mothers who speak out about system failure often face judicial retaliation and lose what little time they have with their children. The unregulated cottage industry churns away, generating hundreds of thousands of dollars in fees to experts, while some of the worst cases settle only when the children turn 18. This is a national epidemic that is destroying families across America." (Photograph clickable)

The Custody Judge, A "Key Abuse Collaborator"

Photobucket

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . J U S T I C E . . W A N T E D . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . My custody order is incoherent. With one document the judge relies on the report and recommendation of a court appointee and removes and replaces the court appointee, a forensic evaluator (the same Child-Sparing screwball and father-puppet that from a witness stand had barked "She doesn't blink! Most people blink!" in testimony on the impact of my eyelid movements on my mothering skills) refusing for 12 years to let me see my raw psychological test data. I'm seeking an attorney who will agree this circuit ruling is not logical and help me suspend/annul the order. I'm not asking for a trial, just a motion to restore the JDR decision of May 1999, our only true & valid order. Veronique Wyvell (tel 703.748.0072), from February 1999 to Oct. 2015, victim of judicial battery, parental persecution, gang rape, highway robbery and general bullshit in the courts of the Commonwealth of Virginia, County of "Fair-facts"

. . .

My incoherent custody order was decided in the wrong court: JUSTICE WANTED PART II. In a formal complaint for the Judicial Inquiry and Review Commission, I wrote: Why was my case left to linger in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County? Why did my case not go back to the Fairfax Juvenile & Domestic Relations District Court following entry (date 12/06/2000) of the final order by Judge Vieregg on an appeal from there? Instead, circuit judges allowed subsequent motions and hearings and even a second custody trial all in circuit court, the improper court. Between 2000 and 2004, Deel v. Wyvell passed through the hands of NINE different jurists on the Fairfax circuit bench: Judges Bellows, Havrilak, Keith, Klein, Ney, Roush, Smith, Thacher and Vieregg. All 9 had opportunity but would fail to execute Section 16.1-297 of the Code of Virginia. -V. Wyvell* [Enclosures: Custody Orders dated 07/14/99, 12/06/00, and 11/30/01] *Financial Damages suffered by Veronique Wyvell: $ 53,000.00

"Fairfax County Circuit Court Judge Arthur B. Vieregg Unimpressed by Testimony of Preacher for United States Supreme Court Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, My Boss the Reverend Dr. George W. Evans" is the title of one of my favorite mommy go bye bye blog postings. Justice Rehnquist attended Sunday services at the church that employed me. He liked our preacher. The preacher liked me. Judge Vieregg, however, didn't care much for either one of us.

. . .

Mothers with a problematic legal case involving Vieregg, the circuit judge, and Zuckerman, the forensic psychologist, should contact me: The evidence has suggested Judge Arthur B. Vieregg and Dr. William B. Zuckerman may have owned real estate together or shared the same residential or mailing address; Vieregg appointed Zuckerman to conduct the Deel/Wyvell custody evaluation. The experience of your Mommy Go Bye Bye blogger has been that these two clowns are nothing more than, and her wish is for readers to take this quite literally, a couple of m----- f------ crooks. (Mr. Vieregg is now with McCammon.)

. . .

. . .
THE IMPORTANT NUMBERS TO JUDGE VIEREGG AND DR. ZUCKERMAN HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MY DAUGHTER’S AGE. Very early in Deel v. Wyvell the question would change from “Where’s the mistake?” to “Who’s making the most mistakes?” Vieregg sat for 3 big trials in 18 mos., in the matter of Brigitte, ages 2-3.

"If you're such a great father, why aren't you taking care of your son?" VW
{Item #26} “Dr. Zuckerman overlooked the parent/child (often mother/child) separation issues and child abandonment issues which pervaded this case and were fundamental to an understanding of the conflict. The separation and abandonment themes are shockingly rampant in the recent history of this family: Troy Deel’s birthmother’s abandonment of him as a newborn when she left him on a stranger’s porch and their subsequent estrangement; Jackie Decker’s abandonment of her foster son and their subsequent estrangement, her foster son is Troy Deel; Troy Deel’s abandonment of his baby son (by Camen Shimer) and their subsequent estrangement; Carmen Shimer’s “kidnapping” of Troy Deel’s baby son and their subsequent estrangement from Troy Deel; Carmen Shimer’s father’s kidnapping of her from her mother and Carmen’s subsequent estrangement from her father (Carmen was reunited with her mother after 5 years of separation); finally, Lisa Ferry’s (Troy Deel’s current wife) abandonment of her newborn son in a convent after hiding there for the duration of her pregnancy and their subsequent estrangement. Dr. Zuckerman could not have been more negligent in his duty as a trained and experienced psychologist to identify and address unresolved conflict and to stop the monster that so much accumulated resentment has become as evidenced by the father’s obsessive drive to obliterate through litigation the mother (Veronique Wyvell) from their own daughter’s life. After all, the work of psychology is to explore human issues.” Item #26 above and Item #11 below were taken from the “Veronique Wyvell 34-Point/6-Page Official Statement of Heinous Behaviors and Atrocious Actions by Court Appointed Psychological Evaluator William Zuckerman in Troy Deel v. Veronique Wyvell, a Child Custody Evaluation” compiled on February 10, 2002 (and on file with VW). {Item #11} “At the time of the evaluation, Dr. Zuckerman’s daughters were refusing to speak with him because they sided with their mother whom he was divorcing. His troubled personal life should have ethically precluded him from evaluating custody disputes for others.”

“There is a crisis in the custody court system, which has resulted in thousands of children being sent to live with abusers while safe, protective parents, primarily mothers, are denied any meaningful relationship with their children. The court system has failed to respond appropriately to domestic violence and child abuse cases involving custody. The Commission found many common errors made by the courts and the professionals they rely upon which contribute to these tragedies.”

“The common theme that emerged from the testimony is that there is a widespread problem of abusive parents being granted custody of children and protective parents having their custody limited or denied, and/or being otherwise punished.”

“The situation of family courts endangering children and punishing women must be exposed in the media. State and national policymakers in all three branches of government and other allies must be advised of the problem of family courts placing children in the unsupervised custody of abusive parents, and be told that this is happening with alarming frequency.”

Re: How are you delivering on change?

Dear Mr. President ...

I am not much of a fighter. And so my little daughter has lost her mother because her mother is not much of a fighter. We were last together in July of 2004. My little girl, Brigitte, is now 11. She lives just 20 miles down Route 7, in Ashburn.

Family courts in Virginia prefer fighters. Family judges in Virginia favor the most aggressive parent-litigant. And often the most aggressive parent in the courtroom was the most violent parent in the home. In Virginia, a domestic abuser may hurt the mother of his child, by abusing [her with] court proceedings, without hurting his chances of gaining custody. When cases go to court, in Virginia, children go to fathers more than they go to mothers. And violent men are twice as likely as caring and involved fathers to seek custody. It’s a statistic that is probably now 10 years old. My observations show the problem has worsened.

Violence in the courtroom is an issue close to my heart.

And so I started a blog with the goal to protect the mothers who are trying to protect their children from a violent and abusive father.

Virginia’s family courts are a ‘Public Health Hazard.’

Virginia’s ‘Best Interest of the Child’ standard is a racket.

Virginia’s ‘Judicial Selection Process’ a shambles.

Every morning when I wake up my mind is busy, busy thinking up of new ways to improve our bad judiciary and move us closer to the ‘Approximation Rule.’

My strategies are better than my web-mastering skills and my web-writing skills. But I manage the blog. It’s called Mommy Go Bye Bye.

It’s found here: http://mommygobyebye-virginia.blogspot.com/.

It’s ‘fighting’ without the hitting and yelling, the litigating.

I would rather ‘fight it out’ in a blog than in a courtroom. I want that message to reach as many abused mothers as possible. I encourage them all to send in their stories of judicial manhandling of their children, of heavy-handed justice that diminished and even ignored the impact of the domestic violence on their children. I will post, I tell all of them. I tell all of them this is the way you need to ‘fight.’

Mothers are hearing me.

One bad judge lost his job a few weeks ago because now we are being listened to.

Please know that I am here. A stone's throw from the White House, in Fairfax County, where ‘change’ is happening.

Persistence is key, I have always believed.

Breaking the Silence: Children's Stories



PART I

“Contested custody, about 10 percent of break-ups, clogs courts. In these disputes, some studies show, a mildly abusive, or brutally battering or seriously molesting parent lurks in three fourths of cases. It can be a mother, but mostly it tends to be a father, and recent studies show fathers winning these battles 2-1. Do the math. It's a problem. … What our legal system has failed to grasp is that lust for vengeance drives the worst of fathers to use litigation itself as a way to abuse ex-wives. Their economic incentive has also grown. Winning custody can be cheaper than child support.” -BP in “Custody Fight”

Custody Fight: Documentary Sheds Light On System That Lets Children Suffer At the Hands of Abusive Fathers

By Bob Port
Albany Times Union
October 16, 2005

This week, every judge, lawyer, psychiatrist, psychologist, and social worker with any connection to family law in New York ought to be taken into custody, escorted to their local courthouse and forced to watch "Breaking the Silence: Children's Stories," a PBS documentary set to air in the Capital Region at 10 p.m. Thursday on WMHT Ch. 17.

Before coming to Albany, I worked for years at the New York Daily News. I had occasion to cover stories from Family Court and custody battles, largely in New York City. I've heard the tales of more than a hundred people in recent years caught up in the "Twilight Zone" of a custody dispute, as many of them identically refer to the legal system.

This exquisite documentary, "Children's Stories," like no other production I have seen, makes comprehensible the subtlety of a scandal that recurs in custody proceedings in New York and other states. It is an almost impossible story to tell, one from which journalists flee, and it boils down to this: A judge, often misled by self-interested lawyers and court-appointed professionals, ignores a protective mother, ignores the wishes of children and awards custody to a man who is an abuser, emotionally or physically, of his wife or their children.

In a bitter irony, the judge orders this injustice wrapped in the banner that is New York's legal standard for deciding custody: "best interests of the child."

What our legal system has failed to grasp is that lust for vengeance drives the worst of fathers to use litigation itself as a way to abuse ex-wives. Their economic incentive has also grown. Winning custody can be cheaper than child support.

"Children's Stories," filmed partly in Loudonville, will not try your patience with he-said, she-said debate between couples or among experts. Save that for later. Instead, the filmmakers select wise experts to explain and ask that you do two things our courts easily fail to do: Trust mothers to behave like mothers and listen to what children say.

There is little Sarah, ordered to live with a father she feared. "You feel like," she says, biting her lip, "you want to die."

There is the terror-stricken voice of Manya recorded on the phone, pleading with her mother to rescue her from her father, who molested her for years. "I don't care if you have to break the law," she sobs, "get me out right now."

There are the observations of Jeff, who turned 18 and escaped, but who remains haunted at having lain awake across the hall from his little sister as she was raped and sodomized by his dad, who won custody. "It's the most helpless feeling," Jeff laments.

These are the raw extremes of custody law gone awry. The typical abusive parent is less severe or far less obvious, and abuse is always difficult to discern. Two adult men speak in "Children's Stories" with memories of their own abusive fathers to shed light.

One of them, Joe Torre, manager of the New York Yankees, who suffered in the care of a violent father, recalls why he never called police. "My father was the police," Torre says.

"It is never an event," says the other, Walter Anderson, CEO of Parade magazine. "It is a pattern of behavior." Abuse, he explains, is "the systematic diminishment of the child." This common sense can elude family courts.

Some facts are in order here. We're talking about a big but very narrow problem. Custody is not disputed in court in the overwhelming majority of divorces, as many as nine in 10 cases settle amicably, according to studies. In uncontested custody, mothers win out over fathers, taking custody about 2-1, although this is partly because some fathers see trying to win custody as futile.

Contested custody, about 10 percent of break-ups, clogs courts. In these disputes, some studies show, a mildly abusive, or brutally battering or seriously molesting parent lurks in three fourths of cases. It can be a mother, but mostly it tends to be a father, and recent studies show fathers winning these battles 2-1.

Do the math. It's a problem.

Custody case law in New York, as in many states, enshrines one of the most ridiculous legal principles ever to evolve, called "parental alienation."

Conceived by the late Columbia University psychiatrist Richard Gardner, "parental alienation syndrome" was a proposed name for a mental illness in which a mother, to punish her ex-mate, alienates kids against dad by coaching them to allege abuse.

The antidote for this alleged insanity, Gardner theorized, is to give the kids to dad, thereby counteracting mom's alienation by removing the kids from her control. It's the ultimate mind game in custody battles. We can almost never prove what's really true in an abuse allegation, and a bald abuse allegation, even if false or exaggerated itself, can be symptomatic of a deeper, less severe pattern that is true. The victim of abuse thus becomes the perpetrator and a villain can win. Gardner's ideas became a playbook for fathers using litigation to punish ex-lovers.

Gardner's colleagues rejected the addition of his theory to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, the peer-reviewed handbook of mental illnesses. His work has been debunked by the American Psychological Association and others. Parental alienation syndrome is junk science.

Yet in a monument to ignorance, New York courts continue to recognize "parental alienation" as if it were some psycho-law of medicine and continue to give kids to oppressive, if not abusive fathers simply when mothers make accusations. It's as if judges are years behind in reading social science literature.

Father's rights groups have legitimate concerns about false abuse allegations, but given the nature of contested custody, these utterances should not trigger instant death for mothers. Yet, Gardner's remedy for alienation is etched in precedent in our state appellate law books. Judges continue to fall for it as medical dogma when it comes from court-appointed forensic psychiatrists. These experts, unregulated in the court system, are often ordered by a judge to evaluate parents, but they answer to no one. They must be right, judges are pressed to believe. After all, judges appointed them.

In "Children's Stories," a judge, who happens to be a social worker, as perhaps we should require of all our Family Court judges, tries to set the record straight. Maybe our Court of Appeals will get the message.

Also aired in this documentary are the problems with some law guardians, lawyers appointed for children. The documentary shows us how they can do more harm than good. They can be patronage-seeking pals of judges who authorize legal fees billed to parents for whatever the market will bear.

Law guardians may not listen to their clients, the children, and they inevitably end up taking sides, then avoid communication with the losing side. They can freely engage in what lawyers call ex-parte communication; they talk to one side without the other present. Judges do it, too. It's unethical and it deprives one party of a fair hearing. Yet, in our family courts, ex-parte exchanges, even hearings, can be standard operating procedure.

Dominique Lasseur, the producer of "Children's Stories," told me he expects to be sued, but I say he deserves a Nobel Prize for honesty for his work here. The Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation, which financed this effort, deserves our gratitude. And this documentary should prove again the incalculable value of public broadcasting.

An annual event at Siena College became the setting for some of "Children's Stories." Mo Therese Hannah, a psychology professor at Siena, is already organizing the third Battered Mothers Custody Conference there, set for next January.

The judiciary in New York is aware of the problems you'll see on TV. A 32-member Matrimonial Commission, appointed by our chief judge, has heard from hundreds of citizens. Appellate Judge Sondra Miller of Westchester County, chairwoman, says her commission is preparing its report for release in December and it will recommend major changes.

"We hope that we can change the tenor of these proceedings," Miller said. She intimated her commission is considering some new court model for resolving custody, one based on principles of mediation and arbitration more than advocacy.

We'll all be watching.

PRESS RELEASE
Breaking the Silence: Children’s Stories


New PBS Documentary Reveals Surprising Information about Child Abuse and the Shocking Inadequacies of Family Courts across the Country
Premieres Thursday, October 20 [2005] at 10 pm ET on most PBS stations (check local listings)

(Hartford, CT) – It is no secret that domestic violence has devastating, long-term effects on children. For the past two decades, the evidence has been mounting in psychological studies and academic journals. What is lesser known is that many domestic batterers are successfully using custody and visitation litigation to abuse their families further.

Breaking the Silence: Children’s Stories — premiering Thursday, October 20 [2005] at 10 pm ET on most PBS stations (check local listings) — is a powerful new PBS documentary that chronicles the impact of domestic violence on children and the recurring failings of family courts across the country to protect them from their abusers. In stark and often poignant interviews, children and battered mothers tell their stories of abuse at home and continued trauma within the courts. Co-produced by Tatge-Lasseur Productions and Connecticut Public Television (CPTV), this one-hour special also features interviews with domestic violence experts, attorneys and judges who reveal the disturbing frequency in which abusers are winning custody of their children and why these miscarriages of justice continue to occur.

This program is made possible by funding from the Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation. One of the most effective ways an abusive father can inflict pain and declare his domination is to take custody of his children away from their mother. As Joan Meier, an attorney and professor of clinical law, explains, “To win custody of the kids over and against the mother’s will is the ultimate victory...short of killing the kids.” While there may be a perception in society that the family court system has a maternal preference, statistics show that, in the past twenty years, fathers are more often being awarded custody. Furthermore, in family court cases where mothers allege battery, fathers are given custody two-thirds of the time.

Breaking the Silence: Children’s Stories also explores a controversial theory called Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS), which has been used in countless cases by abusive fathers to gain custody of their children. The theory states that the custodial parent (most often the mother) is alienating the child against the father by raising false allegations against him. Despite being discredited by the American Psychological Association and similar organizations, PAS continues to be used in family courts as a defense for why a child is rejecting the father.

The documentary profiles several shocking stories of abuse further complicated by the courts, including the story of Karen and her three children. Karen’s suspicions of her husband’s sexually abusive behavior were confirmed through a medical exam. However, when the custody case came to trial, a court-appointed psychologist, or evaluator, testified that Karen was using Parental Alienation Syndrome to turn her children against their father. The psychologist never read the medical and police reports of the case and never interviewed the children. All three children were awarded custody to their dad.

Karen’s son Jeff, who left his father’s custody when he turned eighteen, now serves as an advocate for children in similar abusive situations as a member of the Courageous Kids Network. His two younger sisters still live with their father.

Breaking the Silence: Children’s Stories also features interviews with New York Yankees Manager Joe Torre, who dealt with domestic violence as a child, and in 2003, started the Safe-at-Home Foundation to help educate people about the issue; and Walter Anderson, Chairman and CEO of Parade magazine, who recounts the emotional and physical abuse he suffered at the hands of his alcoholic father.

Breaking the Silence: Children’s Stories is a follow-up to the acclaimed 2001 PBS documentary, Breaking the Silence: Journeys of Hope, which focused on women and domestic abuse. “Journeys of Hope documented how much we, as a society, made progress to combat domestic violence and serve its victims,” explains producer Dominique Lasseur. “Children Stories reminds us that a lot needs to be done to better protect our children from the long term effects of living with violent abusers.” Both documentaries were funded by the Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation.

Breaking the Silence: Children’s Stories is made possible by the generous support of the Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation. Started in 1996, the mission of the foundation is two-fold: eliminating cancers affecting women by supporting top medical scientists who are searching for a cure for breast, uterine, cervical and ovarian cancers; and ending the epidemic of violence against women by providing grants to women’s shelters and supporting community outreach programs. The Foundation wholeheartedly supports education and awareness on the issue of domestic violence.

Breaking the Silence: Children’s Stories is co-produced by Tatge/Lasseur Productions, and its principals, Catherine Tatge and Dominique Lasseur. Tatge/Lasseur have a long and successful history of producing programs for PBS, including The Question of God: C.S. Lewis & Sigmund Freud, Dances of Life, Holo Mai Pele, CeCe Winans: A Gospel Celebration and Breaking the Silence: Journeys of Hope. Tatge/Lasseur have had close association with Bill Moyers on several projects. With Moyers, they co-produced Genesis: A Living Conversation and Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth, the latter of which earned Tatge an Emmy Award.

The documentary is co-produced by Connecticut Public Television (CPTV), a nationally recognized producer and presenter of quality public television programming, including Barney & Friends™, Alan Alda in Scientific American Frontiers, Bob the Builder™, and Wounded in Action. Entering its 43rd year, CPTV remains committed to bringing the best in educational programming and services to Connecticut and the nation.

“I have opened up the process of re-

...
appointment to the public and unless
...
anyone comes to complain, the judges
...
usually get re-appointed.” -Dave Albo*
...
______________________________
The Listing of State Judges and Their Terms seen here was taken from the Virginia 2007 State of the Judiciary Report. It is subject to change (with the release in mid-summer of the Virginia 2008 State of the Judiciary Report) as judges advance to another court, retire, resign, die or are fired because people just like you got involved in this effort to remove unfit, corrupt or otherwise disabled judges. All judges named below are incumbents slated provisionally for interview in the fall by the Courts of Justice (COJ), a committee comprised of general assembly members from the house and senate and vested with the power to qualify state judges for reappointment. Interested citizens should visit the Virginia General Assembly website for instructions on how to sign up to receive via email House and Senate Notices of Judicial Interviews (sample). -VW-**

______________________________
The Virginia Courts themselves know that Virginia’s judicial system needs to change. Every few years, after extensive studies, the Virginia Judicial System puts forth their “Strategic Plan” for the purpose of “identifying and assessing the challenges, opportunities, and expected demands that lie ahead” because “the future of the justice system is too important to be left to chance.” In the Strategic Plan the Virginia Courts share their vision of the judicial system and the steps needed to achieve that vision. To accomplish the Judicial System of Virginia’s 2002-2004 Strategic Plan’s mission of providing “an independent, accessible, responsive forum for the just resolution of disputes in order to preserve the rule of law and to protect all rights and liberties guaranteed by the United States and Virginia constitutions” the objective of ensuring “that the judicial system attracts and retains the most qualified persons for service on the bench” [ Objective 6.1/Page 19 ] must be completed. And one of the tasks to fulfill that objective is to “secure legislative adoption of merit selection of judges in order to recruit and to elect the most qualified judiciary” [ Task 6.1.1/Page 19 ]. In other words, in their Strategic Plan, the Virginia Courts put forth the need to reform the judicial selection system. And the system they recommend is the Missouri Plan.

______________________________
The question of considering qualifications is a tricky one under the current Virginia system, and not even necessary under current Virginia law. Although “both primary legal associations in Virginia - the Virginia State Bar and the Virginia Bar Association - have issued general guidelines for judicial-selection criteria,” there are no specific guidelines established in Virginia law. What this means is that legislators can and do set their own criteria for determining whether a judge belongs in office…Giving the General Assembly exclusive selection and reselection power over the State’s judges gives them too much power over the whole justice system and even more importantly, it gives them too much power to abuse the system. “The ability to select and reappoint judges produces amazing personal clout. If you are a legislator, rich, ambitious attorneys who want to be judges or want their law partners to be judges come to you.” In addition, there is an innate conflict of interest when legislators, many of whom are lawyers, select the judges whom they might appear before in court. There must be a better way to select and sustain judges than by putting that whole power in the hands of a highly biased and politicized body such as the legislature.
-Larry O’Dell, Associated Press Writer, in Critics Target Va. Judge Selection Process
