Public Comment Platform Shames Judge and DAIn what is becoming known as "microdocumentaries" , a group of Silicon Valley parents are using public comments to explain the harm local courts are inflicting in divorce cases that deal with complicated topics including suicide, domestic violence and sexual assault. Activists, parents and investigative reporters have joined to personally "seed and shame" judges and lawyers on social media, in Patch articles and on Facebook and to shock the public by revealing what is bring done in local communities in the name of the law. A recent escalation of ambush interviews on family law lawyers who have harmed women and interviews with elected judges and DAs leaving political meetings, are also being used to address the financial problems family courts have unleashed in Silicon Valley. Thousands of victims lurking in the shadows of fear are helping to spread the word on social media. Many claim the movement gives them a sense of public justice where they were denied justice during a divorce or custody case because of a broken and corrupt legal system.

I have not seen my children in 4 years because Judge James Towery has a conflict of interest. I am trying to have Judge Towery recuse himself from my case.

James Towery is my Judge, I need to let you know this judge will never recuse himself. You need to find a different approach.

Who cares about the CJP when we have the District Courts?

Judge Hyashi gave custody of my 5 year old son to my abusive ex-husband, whom I have a DVRO against and has a documented history of violence after he wrote a one page declaration claiming I am a drug addict. No evidence was presented, nothing but his declaratiion. Now I have to pay $400 a week to see my son, supervised , for 2 hours 3x a week which I don't actually get because my ex just doesn't show up and I still have to pay for the time. I have taken 5 drug tests, all negative, but Hyashi has found some reason or another that the drug test is not good enough for her - the frist one was a rapid test that she said was not valid because it wasn't sent to a lab, had to wait 2 more weeks for a review all while I was denied even supervised visits by ex and that test hadn't come back in time after the Christmas holiday so I was ordered to take it again, 3 weeks for next hearing my tests weren't faxed by the lab but hand delivered by my lawyer (who is amazing and clean as a whistle, he wants to nail this woman to a cross) at which I proceed to call the judge out on the record for all the violations she has made in my case- violation of due process, violation of rule 3044 not allowing DV perpetrators to get custody, violation of rule for forcing drug testing without evidence of continued and habitual illegal substance abuse- at which time Hyashi lost her shit and threw a lieteral temper tantrum and stormed out of the courtroom. Yep a JUDGE screamed and claimed that "If you can't let me speak then I don't even know why I'm here" to which I replied "You can always recuse yourself, Your Honor". Yup. That really happend. She returned 15 min later with orders for a second emergency screening- the first was a joke. Shalini Venktash made findings of suspected drug use based on absolutely no investigation. She did nothing except interview me, my ex and our son. Oh and my fiance's ex wife who has launched her own crusade getting me banned from being around my fiance's 3 boys based on my ex husband ranting to BJ Fadem about, if it were true, would be protected by HIIPA. Fadem testified about a phone conversation with my ex in which he talks about a Dr I never saw telling him I was a serious cocaine addict. All false,all hearsay and all allowed by the honorable Judge Pegg and used a cause to bar me from being around my future stepsons. This has been said to be detrimental to their well being as I have a very close relationship with the kids, by their therapists Marcia Clark and Rafael Padilla and even Fadem acknowledges the kids are unhappy with the situation. Yet Pegg made the order and upheld it at review. It's been over 2 months. Guess who the ex-wife's lawyer is- the upstanding citizen of the year (more like voted Most Likely to lie numerous times during the same hearing, ignoring sustained objections and then testifying on behalf of "witnesses" she won't produce contact info for with statements that cannot be cooroberated (which sound very much like the ex's rhetoric, claiming I'm a drug addict gold digger who is emotionally unstable and unsafe for her kids to be around) Mizz Goodley is, overall, a pretencious whore of the family court system and deserving of jail time and public shaming for her abuses of my stepsons. Yes it is abuse to place children with an emotionally and physically abusive woman who has used her kids as weapons in over 53 requests for order, claiming my fiance is abusive, unfit, irresponsible and a plethora of other absolutely bullshit accusations. This woman has colluded with a man who tried to kill me twice, whom I had to run from TN with my 2 year old and suitcase before he succeeded in his next attempt.This "abuse victim" and self proclaimed mom of the year, has fed my ex-husband info my whereabouts, told him things that have angered him to the point of choking me in front of my son during an exchange and attacking her children's father at my son's 4th bday party subsequently getting him arrested of which she brought her sons specifically going against us telling her to not bring them becuase my ex was making threats, just so they could see their father assaulted and my ex arrested in front of all my son's classmates and parents. No abuse victim would do that to another victim. I wouldn't even do that to her and she is the spawn of satan. If you are lucky enough to escape your abuser you never deliver another victim back to hers. No way. This insult to DV victims like me and the obvious rape of the judicial system. Wow this is a novel and I haven't even gotten to part where Hyashi tries to rebutt 3044 all by herself, by getting CPS and Ms Fleming over at Family Court Services to participate in an entire day of legal theater to get Fleming on the stand to testify on behalf of some social worker I spoke with for 10 min who never asked about DV in my marriage or since, where Fleming testifies that he did not think DV was a current issue in our case. My lawyer objected forcing Hyashit to begrud
