First Amendment Violations in Warren County Kentucky Courtroom

The truth is heavy; therefore few care to carry it.

October 17, 2010 National USA –First Amendment violations and other illegal and unethical maneuvers in Warren County Kentucky.  American Mothers Political Party has announced they will stand up for those in Warren County Kentucky that have been unconstitutionally gagged by the family courts.

Kimberly Harris is preparing to be sent to jail on October 19, 2010 as she is being accused of speaking out about her horrific nightmare with Warren County government officials. The Warren County Kentucky Judge, Catherine Rice-Holderfield, has threatened Mrs.Harris not to speaking publicly regarding her son being placed into the foster care system by the juge. The corruption, illegal maneuvers of this unconstitutional activity came to the attention of AMPP in early October.  Frightened supporters knew that they could not in good conscience submit to the intimidation as Rice-Holderfield threatened to also jail the supporters for speaking out.

Warren County officials have become hostile due to the highly publicized blogging and/or expressing the outrage about this severe case of judicial abuse and impropriety, basic fundamental rights are in peril.  Many supporters have been warned that Bowling Green PD and DHS workers are questioning and harassing individuals regarding blog posts made, including the 14 year old girlfriend of the child abuse victim.

The 15 year old son of Mrs. Harris was brutally beaten by his father and was subsequently placed in foster care by Rice-Holderfield.  The child victim asked that his story be made public before he was taken into foster care.  This young man has stated that he wants to be home in the safe loving arms of his mother, Kimberly, and that very wish is disappearing by the same officials sworn to protect and serve their community and its most vulnerable citizens.

CHAMBER OF SECRETS

Just when you think you have left an abusive relationship enter the family court judge. In Kentucky there is one such judge (court whore) that loves to hand out punishment to all but especially mothers and children.

As I researched the Honorable Judge Catherine Rice-Holderfield it gave me more insight to how this court whore ticks and how she got into the position she was appointed not voted into.

According to http://kyjudges2006.wikispaces.com/file/view/bgdailynews.oct31.pdf is where I found the interesting comments that Rice-Holderfield made in regards to her experience with family court matters.

Rice-Holderfield states, My parents divorced when I was a teenager. Being a child of divorce gives me a special perspective on how deeply this family tragedy affects children. I also could see how my parents struggled with custody, division of their property and debts, and with providing financial support. When my children were very young, their father and I divorced, very amicably, and I faced balancing management of my sole law practice with being a single parent, while always making sure my children were the focus of my attention. These are priorities I also keep now, and which I stress to persons in family court

First of all, just because your parents divorced and you divorced amicably does NOT mean you have all knowing experience in family court. Her special perspective is askew to the point that hypocrisy doesn't even apply to her method of madness. Especially now when Kimberly Harris is facing judicial retaliation on October 19th for absolutely nothing. In what can only be described as judicial abuse and retaliation Rice-Holderfield has threatened jail for Kimberly Harris and her supporters for speaking about her judicial abuse online.

So to make this all clear, Rice-Holderfield is upset because American citizens have exposed her dirty little secrets? With the information I have gleaned from the www there is much more to expose about this Kentucky court whore.

First thing I did was check with the Constitution and it still says:

Amendment 1 - Freedom of Religion, Press, Expression. Ratified 12/16/1791

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Redress

redress v. 1. To set right, remedy or rectify. 2. To make amends for. n. 1. Satisfaction for wrong done; reparation. 2. Correction. [redresser.]

This is a redress and you should duly note it.

The absurdity and contradictions continue at http://kyjudges2006.wikispaces.com/file/view/bgdailynews.oct31.pdf They pose the question to Rice-Holderfield,

What issues, if any, are important to improve family court?

I believe I’m serving the community very well in family court. I treat every participant equally, fairly, with dignity and respect. I’m always striving toward greater efficiency in managing my large caseload, and to save money and time for the people in my court. I put the focus on the children whose entire lives will be affected by the decisions we make and the agreements we reach in family court. I try to put myself in the shoes of every person that comes into my courtroom, while applying the law to the facts presented to me.

Thankfully after I read this quote I didnt spew too hard onto my keyboard. After we heard about Kimberly Harris and her son we knew that this was insanity, we just didn't anticipate the extent of it. Rice-Holderfield by her own admission is a product of divorce, she has been through divorce, she is a mother...but yet she is hellbent on jailing a mother who did nothing more than any mother would do to protect their child from abuse, it is blatantly apparent Rice-Holderfield doesn't grasp that concept.

Sadly it doesn't end there..the rest of the article here: http://judgecatherinericeholderfield.blogspot.com/2010/10/chamber-of-secrets.html

Family Court -- Unconstitutional Judicial Gag Orders

Over the past decade, family court judges routinely have uttered broader and broader gag orders, forbidding parents in custody battles from talking or writing about their cases. The pretext for these orders is that they are needed for the protection of the child.  Nevertheless, it's suspected that more often they are prompted by embarrassed officials who dislike scrutiny and criticism by internet bloggers in the wake of burgeoning out-of-control shoot-from-the-hip "therapeutic jurisprudence" in the family courts. The stated child protection rationale is specious because defamation, obscenity, violations of privacy, harassment, and other unprotected speech appropriately are addressed by the law after the fact when actual or potentially harmful speech can be specifically identified.

These orders are illegal under the First Amendment as violations of the constitutional prohibition against prior restraint. Now one mother, Faith Torres, has contacted the American Civil Liberties Union because of a gag order entered in her case by Judge Debra DeSegna in Providence, Rhode Island, July 29, at the request of the Rhode Island Department of Children, Youth and Families. Steven Brown, executive director of the ACLU's Rhode Island affiliate, called the order a "blatant violation of the First Amendment." Let's see some federal lawsuits. http://newsblog.projo.com/2010/08/judge-bars-ri-mother-from-talk.html

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Corruption and Cover ups Exposed in Garvin County, Oklahoma

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Many speak for justice, but few have the courage to face down the devil in its name.

October 15, 2010 National USA……With the arrival in Oklahoma of nationally-known author, media personality and activist, Susan Murphy Milano, there begins the process of shedding more light on some of Oklahoma's darkest secrets.  For years, families have struggled in this State with a "good ole boy" system that delivered not justice, but cold justice.

The families affected by this system of justice in Garvin County, Oklahoma have called on Murphy Milano to help them bring national attention to the alleged corruption surrounding several cases of possible murder that have been covered up or improperly investigated by those sworn into positions of authority.

The climate is quite hostile and the safety of those speaking out has been threatened.

According to Attorney Jaye Mendros, “When a murder is covered up, or inadequately investigated, and an erroneous cause or manner of death determination is made by a good ole' boy who is NOT a physician, the Medical Examiner’s Office should NOT turn a blind eye and rubber stamp that determination.”

With the help of Oklahoma City attorney, Jaye Mendros, and Justice for the Dead, along with grass roots organization, The Eleventh Commandment, and the families of Chanda Turner, Sheila Deviney, Tom Horton, and others, they hope to illuminate the overwhelming evidence and bring justice to those who have gone without it for too long.

This corruption begs for national attention from major news networks. In an upcoming election is a Sheriff who was present at each of these death scenes.

Does Garvin County, Oklahoma want more of the same?

JOINT CHILD CUSTODY IS NOT ALWAYS THE BEST COURSE

There have been many cases of fathers injuring or killing their children lately, usually with the underlying case being traced back to custody or child support issues.  There are so many that I rarely cover them anymore.  There are other bloggers that do a good job of this, such as Dastardly Dads (I don’t know how she keeps up with all the incidents).  This is from the Houston Chronicle about one of those cases, and it ties it all together pretty well (the main cause behind a lot of these sad cases).  It is too bad judges and court-appointed personnel don’t understand this.

Children often the victims of cycle of domestic abuse

Granting joint custody not always the best course

By LAKSHMY PARAMESWARAN
DAYA INC.

Oct. 12, 2010, 8:25PM

The devastating effect of domestic violence on children shook us on Sept. 19, the day convicted batterer Mohammad Goher shot and killed his three children while they slept in his Houston home. A tortured victim of Goher for 15 years, Goher’s wife had left and filed for divorce. Despite having generous unsupervised custody privileges, Goher feared losing custody of his children. He took matters into his own hands.

Power and control are at the core of the cycle of violence, and a child is a convenient pawn that the abuser often uses to control his spouse, even an estranged spouse. By killing his children, Goher made the final decision about their future and showed his wife he was still in control. In a batterer, the need to feel powerful is this overwhelming. In his desperate attempt to gain control, he actually loses control.

It is unfortunate that the presumption of our family law — joint custody to ensure that a child has two parents — often fails to exclude violent fathers like Goher from obtaining custody. By tormenting the mothers and exposing their children to violence, these fathers have demonstrated their inability to parent. Yet our family courts continue to trust them with children. It is time for our society to reconsider its stance on joint custody. The deaths of the Goher children should not be in vain.

Reports on the tragedy state that the lawyers involved in the Goher case raised no concern over the children’s safety. They saw Goher as a loving father because he had not specifically threatened or hurt the children and when asked if they wanted to visit their father, the children said yes. Their reasoning demonstrates a severe dearth of knowledge about family violence.

In my work with battered women since 1995, I have heard puffy-eyed mothers describe their abusive husbands in the same vein as the lawyers: “He is a great father” or “He has not laid a hand on his kids.” As long as the children are not directly hurt, the women find no reason to leave. Like the family law professionals, they too believe that their children need both parents. “I will leave after my child turns 18″ is a common statement I hear. To these mothers, I stress three simple facts: (1) What is detrimental to the mother cannot be good for her young children. (2) It is only a matter of time before the children are hurt. (3) By diminishing the perpetrator’s violent acts and highlighting his fatherly qualities, they fuel the cycle of violence.

Knowing the facts helps women weigh their options. Deciding a course of action takes time. As for leaving, it is an ordeal fraught with fear, doubt, guilt and many economic and social impediments. For mothers like Mrs. Goher who somehow muster the courage to leave, the prospect of shared custody with the batterer may be the ultimate blow. Almost every divorced mother I counseled has expressed anger and dismay at our legal system that allows a callous wife-beater free access to their child, weekends and more. Yet, this is the reality they must face.

The children’s inclination to please the perpetrating parent however possible only reinforces this reality. Caught in the abuse cycle, children suffer due to divided loyalties. Some children feel compelled to “protect” their mothers by defying the abusive parent; some mediate; and some participate in the violence just to survive. Regardless, children are torn. No wonder, the Goher children said yes to visiting their father.

A parent prone to violence is indeed a misfortune for any child, but having to pay for it with his life is the most horrible form of injustice. Those entrusted with making crucial decisions on behalf of our children – lawyers, judges, the police, social and mental health service providers and parents — must grasp the perpetuating nature of the cycle of violence by undergoing frequent family violence training provided by local women’s centers.

Additionally, the lawyers and judges in our family courts should carefully consider the complex dynamics of family violence and fight to deny normal custody privileges to hardened established batterers like Goher. Joint custody should not in any way endanger our children.

CHILDREN’S EXPOSURE TO VIOLENCE

Children’s exposure to violence…as protective parents, we understand the harm that comes from this.  As a childhood victim who watched my mother abused by my father, only to end up in his custody, it amplifies this understanding.  Until judges, co-parenting counselors, guardians ad litem, custody evaluators, and the other court personnel that continue to churn cases to make work for themselves ($$$) understand this, children’s lives will continue to be destroyed.

Those who wish to profit off of the misery these children endure continue to push for inclusion of so-called “parental alienation disorder” (PAD) into the DSM-V, the psychiatric and psychological diagnostic “bible” (also used for insurance codes), namely Dr. William Bernet of Vanderbilt University, don’t understand this and claim that if a child is afraid to be with an abuser, theycould have PAD because they are an “independent thinker.”

It is claimed that Bernet has a large contingent who are supporting this “mental condition” going into the DSM-V.  Fathers & Families is saying now there are “70 professionals” behind the proposal, up from the recent “50″ supporting it.  F&F are pushing for their supporters to continue to hound the committee for it’s inclusion.  This is just delusional to suggest that this is a large group of supports.  I looked into just how many psychologists there are.  I found one number…63,000 clinical psychologists in the United States alone (Bernet’s group is world wide), and this number is from the early 1990s.  This doesn’t include other psychologists such as in the forensic field, and doesn’t include the number of psychiatrists there are.  What is known of the “70 professionals” that Bernet has supporting PAD is that they make significant income from selling their books or “expert” services blaming parents for protecting their children from abuse.

Yes, there are cases where parents behave badly and lie to children, but research has shown that children are far more likely to resist being with a parent because of the behavior of that parent.  The use of parental alienation “disorders and syndromes” have been the choice of abusers to get child custody successfully taken from their victims.    Bernet and his buddies need to spend more time understanding how children are being destroyed by their actions and the actions of family courts handing these children to abusers.  Here is a report from last year, completed for the U.S. Department of Justice, on this very topic.  Our meetings with DOJ personnel continue to expand their knowledge in this area which is encouraging, but much more needs to be done.

The following post appears courtesy of Jeff Slowikowski, the Acting Administrator for the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention

Yesterday, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) released The National Survey on Children’s Exposure to Violence. The report is a precedent-setting survey because it gives us the first real estimates—as the most comprehensive survey to date– on the nature and extent of violence in children’s lives.

It is the first time data has been collected across all age ranges, and all types of violence, to define the full scope of violence-related experiences in a child’s life –whether it be as victims or witnesses, and whether it be in the home, the school or the community. This is also the first time data has been collected on the cumulative exposure to violence over a child’s lifetime.

With this comprehensive survey, we now have learned that more than 60 percent of the children surveyed were exposed to violence within the past year, either directly or indirectly. Nearly one-half of the children and adolescents surveyed were assaulted at least once in the past year, and more than 1 in 10 were injured as a result.

Respondents also reported they were the victim of a robbery, vandalism, or theft. Some said they were victims of child maltreatment, including physical and emotional abuse, neglect, or a family abduction. 1 in 16 were victimized sexually.

As Attorney General Holder said yesterday in Chicago, these figures are staggering.

The violence that millions of children and youth are exposed to in their homes, schools and communities, whether as direct victims or as a witness, can disrupt their development in many ways. This disruption in development comes from the impact of the stress or trauma on the child. It can be exhibited in how they think, interact, learn and develop relationships.

Each child responds to exposure to violence differently and many children are resilient. Others need support to address trauma reactions to prevent further adverse reactions. That’s why we in the Department of Justice’s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention support initiatives like Safe Start to prevent and reduce the impacts of children’s exposure to violence. It is our mission to protect our youth and reduce children’s exposure to violence.

At OJJDP we will continue to support the training necessary to reach across disciplines to identify children who are at risk of exposure to violence, such as witnessing domestic violence, and to coordinate the delivery of services to these children. Accurate information is a key ingredient to helping us accomplish our mission. Because the survey tracked children’s lifetime exposure to violence, researchers can develop more accurate estimates on the total number of children in a certain age group who have been exposed to a particular form of violence. It illustrates more clearly the full extent of exposure and the cumulative effects of multiple exposures to violence and how exposure to one form of violence may make a child more vulnerable to other forms of violence.

Armed with these facts we will also work with those who come into daily contact with youth and children to assess and identify those who are suffering emotionally, socially, physically and developmentally from exposure to violence. We can better coordinate our outreach to those children and families who need our help, and provide them with the support they need. This study gives us the tools to better protect juveniles and youth from the effects of violence and guide them into healthy and productive lives.

Dutchess County, NY: Domestic violence report presented to Dutchess legislature

We know that there is a connection between the rise in domestic violence homicide in Dutchess County and their broken custody court system that has only served to encourage abusers and make mothers afraid to leave their abusers.  We need to put out this message as it could be an opportunity to have them focus on this problem.

http://www.midhudsonnews.com/News/2010/October/14/DCL_DomVio-14Oct10.html

Domestic violence report presented to Dutchess legislature

POUGHKEEPSIE – Two recent murders, tied to domestic violence, came as a sobering reminder to Dutchess County lawmakers about the seriousness of a problem that threatens the entire community.

County Legislature Chairman Robert Rolison asked a Citizens’ Advisory Committee on Domestic Violence to spend 45 days working on recommendations.  The committee presented its report at last night’s monthly legislative session.

It’s about saving human lives, said Committee Chairperson Leah Feldman.

“As you read through this report and consider our recommendations, please remember that we are asking for your support for services that human lives,” she said. “If the past few months in our county have taught us anything, it is the fatal, devastating and far-reaching effects that domestic violence is having on our community.”

Marjorie Smith, chief of the special victims’ bureau in the District Attorney’s office, presented three recommendations:

• Restore lost services, including those cut as part of the 2010 budget
• Consider the feasibility of GPS monitoring of convicted abusers
• Utilize ‘lethality assessment instruments’, to make sure that resources are directed at the proper cases.

Smith said economic challenges should not stand in the way of doing what must be done to deal with domestic violence.

“We fully recognize that this is a dire economic situation.  These recommendations that are contained in this report are not merely ‘feel good’ recommendations.”

Smith added, “The cost of the status quo is not acceptable.”

Rolison urged the legislature to listen to, then read, the report, and not rush into coming up with quick solutions. 

“As a matter of fact, this probably is going to take quite some time to do in a very comprehensive way, as this report has been put together in a very comprehensive way.  So I would again ask my colleagues to hold off on trying to maybe move things forward quicker than would probably be prudent.”

Rolison has asked legislator Ken Roman, a Town of Poughkeepsie police officer, and chair of the Public Safety Committee, to hold a series of workshops, to “go through the report comprehensively”.

Child Custody PSA - End Court Ordered Child Abuse

 

AMPP is a social movement seeking justice and accountability within the family court system which includes DHHS/CPS, psychologists and other so called experts.

We as mothers demand CITIZENSHIP and our Rights to our Children.

We demand that our children not be used as pawns by our abuser in a custody dispute.

We demand that Mothers and Children be equally protected against court ordered visitation with an abuser.

We demand that Mothers and Children be given the same rights, privileges and voice that the abuser gets in family courts!

We demand that our President take action now as can no longer afford to be silent and we won’t.

We demand the same "rights and freedoms" to which all humans are entitled.

Behind the closed doors of the dirty little secret of the family court system, thousands of women each year lose child custody to violent men who beat and abuse Mothers and Children.

Family courts are not family-friendly and betray the best interests of the child.

Until Mothers and Children's voices are heard we will never shut up, give up or go away!

This episode airs at 10/14/10 3:00PM PDT - 10/14/10 5:00PM CDT - 10/14/10 6:00PM EDT.

Judicial Abuse

theanonymums.

Introduction

 

Judicial abuse occurs when the effects of law itself are damaging to the person access to justice. In the most severe forms, Judicial abuse often occurs involving the most vulnerable members of our world: Children.

For some time, judicial abuse has occurred across systems and mostly against mothers and children. Considering that it was not that long ago that both women and children were seen and not heard, just as things were improving it seemed as though humanity was finally valuing each and every prescious human life.

Out in the public, such things would and do cause enough outrage for a sense of "natural justice". Away from the public eye, these human rights atrocities occur almost unseen and unheard like a thief in the night.

Secrecy

 

There are laws that prevent survivors from speaking out about their experiences. Whilst it is "for the children", children are not allowed to speak about the proceedings either. The media have written too few articles on the family court. To bring the case to the media, participants must seek permission from the court itself or face imprisonment.

Controversially, fathers rights groups were allowed to heavily voice their stories of "no contact", "falsely accused of child abuse and domestic violence" and few were allowed to challenge that except in utilizing generalist terms and evidence based research. We are aware that most of these stories are not the case at all but are withheld by law to bring the public the truth.

Family Court

 

In the process of seeking more time with children and promoting what appears to be the most noble cause, has entrenched the rights of mothers and children in their ability to seek safety from violence.

Heads have been quoted in the media for stating that "family violence is our core business". The propaganda that is spread about the voices of children and their access to justice promotes the profitability in manufacturing child abuse and domestic violence. They can do something about it, but it is not within their best economical advantage to do so.

This will continue until something is done. ShareThis
