Leaked: Minor's Counsel, Judge Pro Tems and Paralegals Use Secret Recordings in NFT Scam

Hoover Krepelka partner Julia McDowell (right), reportedly using a non- profit she formed, Demonstrate Love, as part of a divorce case rigging scheme that reaches from Santa Clara to Sacramento. The scheme involves converting  real estate  to attorney fees and fees for custody evaluators and reunificaiton therapist scammers. McDowell and Jim Hoover are top players in the scheme due to their representation in the Robert Moles and Ted LaScola divorce cases where McDowell and Jim Hoover  reportedly used kickbacks to get favorable rulings from JAMS private judge Catherine Gallagher and Judge Carol Overton , a public court judge who  regularly hears Santa Clara County unlawful detainer cases and is known to rule  favorably  for the benefit of Intero and Coldwell Banker real estate  and San Jose real estate developers who back the political campaigns of judges and district attorney Jeff Rosen. 

BJ Fadem (above) is reportedly part of a scheme with  Nicole Myers (upper right)  and Tom Hogan (no photo) where the duelling lawyers reportedly exploring organ harvesting from children removed from parents during a divorce,  while capitalizing on exploiting the political protection provided by the LGBTQ community. 

 According to a whistleblower highly connected inside  the state bar, a flood of complaints have been buried that reported horrific abuses arising from lawyers appointed to act as attorneys for children during their a divorce or custody disputes.   Attorney notes, emails, and client files and what appear to be accounting records for attorneys keeping second sets of books intially released by Elise Mitchell, show how the scheme works. 
​
" It is all about immunity for the lawyers", the source noted, The judges allow attorneys to break the law, and without a judge referral or court order, the bar will take no action against an attorney.  Immunity is obtained by attorneys who are appointed by the court, or who act as pro tems in settlement conferences. " Parents who are told these attorneys are neutral have no idea of wha they are capable of doing to them and their children."

Family law attorneys acting in divorce and probate cases are a small and closely knit group. Some become judges, others know the dance of pro tem attorneys and minor's counsel appointments that keep money flowing not only from families, but from the courts and taxpayers through local government payments.   

The lawyers determine early on , which parent will win " full cusotdy" , and which parent will be bankrupted, emotionally and financially.  The scheme provides for lawyers appointed to represent children to bill $20,000/ yr.  and tack on costs to benefit others in their network. These appointments never resolve the conflict, they just keep the lawyer paid until the child turns 18.  Hearing after continued hearing means more payments to what clearly is a criminal enterprise openly operating in family courts. 

Divorce lawyers with close ties to police are able to whip out orders that if  " violated"  add in contempt , or criminal prosecution, making $10-20,000 for lawyers specialzing in criminal defense and family law that parents will have to pay just to defend. 

Unlicensed " supervision montiors" charge $50- 100 / hr. , depending on the area. So a lawyer representing children can recommed a parent be placed on supervision with their own children for 5 -10 hours a week and that brings as much as $1000/hr. to unlicensed and unregualted businesses where many lawyers, and judges have undislosed financial interests. 

Supervised vistation allows for one spouse to get more in child support based on cusotdy laws. Merely by alleging domestice violence , or child abuse, a complaining parent with the right connections, is able to use the court sytem to convert the share of a former spouse to the pocket's of minor's counsel , random" supervisors, cusotdy evaluators and other experts who outside of court are heavy drinkers, abusers and  immoral people themselves. " It is called the Silver Bullet" the first lawyer to get a client to claim domestic violence or abuse, wins.  

Most troubling has been the conduct of attorney BJ Fadem and Walter Hammon in Santa Clara County who are actively working to coach children to claim they wish to change gender while they are minors.  In one Hammon matter, a father was compelled to pay for hormone treatments and surgical operations when his daughter was 16 .  Fadem has reportedly been using appointments as a pro tem attorney, private judge and minor's counsel to coach children into claiming they want to change their gender  in a manner that results in court orders issuing payments to doctors, thereapists and others in the circle. Further, it seems that transgender kids bring in big bucks, including on NFT blackmarkets where images of a child's gender transition fetches big bucks paid in the form of cryptocurrency. 

Tom Hogan and Nicole Myers have been reportedly working in Sacramento, Stanislaus , Contra Costa and Santa Clara counties, to move money, illegal recordings, and secret bank accounts, and NFTs  out so the country.  away from a former spouse, where payment of  " investment" and crytocurrency are not disclosed in a family law case.  Donations to non- profits are part of the scheme as well, and attorney Julia McDowell, who reportedly resides in Sacramento, but practices in Santa Clara County,  has a side hustle operating a non- profit, Demonstrate Love,  where she operates in a world of NFTs and anonymous donations for a charity that moves money off shore. She is also reportedly exploring the possiblity of organ harvesting from children who are successfully separated from parents in a divorce case, whose young healthy kidneys are attracting as much as $100,000 where they can be sold as bogus art, as NFTs that are not yet regualated. 

McDowell is reportedly using a network that includes attorneys Tom Hogan, Paula Salinger, Sharon Roper and Tom Tuttle to act as judge pro tems in settlement conferences in order to identify cases ripe for the scheme.  After the pandemic forced hearings online, and out of the courthouses, McDowell and other licenced attorneys went to work using paralegals to illegally record court hearings and judges,  In several " settlement " hearings before Judge Carol Overton, the judge was heard threatening attorneys from Hoge Fenton to destory legal careers if the lawyers did not get clients to agree with what McDowell demanded. The recording of Overton's threats reportedly brought in $1 million in blackmarket NFT payments when the recording was pitched as " art". 

Accoding to a leaked recording that purports to be a conversation between attorneys Nicole Myers, Nicole Ford and Elise Mitchell, Stanislaus County diovrce attorney Tom Hogan is assisting the sceheme with dirty cops taking kickbacks to  to train lawyers how to bug children and homes of  parents involved in cusotdy disputes. Illegal recordings are first laundered and  auctioned off in black market NFTs,  as art. Lawyers working as part of the scheme instruct clients to buy the recordings in cryptocurrency so it can be they can be used  in court against the other parent. Then in addtion to payments disclosed in the court proceedings, these lawyers are also instructing clients to donate to Women SV and donate love, and to political campaings of district attorneys who will not prosecute their clients, as they are in on the scam. 

Divorce Lawyers Scheme and Record Clients and Paralegals

These days attorneys are recording their clients in order to fend off malpractice claims . The same lawyers are reportedly recording every move of the paralegals, secretaries and admininstrators in order to assure " loyalty" . According to one source Nicole Myers has cameras and recording devices everywhere in her office and has used them to record her own staff and her clients. 

While judges announce that recording of hearings broadcasted by Zoom , Blue Jeans and Microsoft Teams is prohibited, Myers and other family law attorneys have been recording proceedings reportedly to blackmail judges and troll high asset and middle class divorce cases for private judging business opportunities.
