Nurses striking in Alameda County got the support from doctors and had the opportunity to spend several hours chatting about Silicon Valley divorce lawyers, which led them to Chris Dull, a family law attorney who is known for using online dating services, watching porn during office consultations  and sexually, verbally and emotionally abusing women clients, workers and colleagues. As the nurses shared stories of their own divorces, and those of their friends, a pattern  emerged and an unusual network appeared to  be formed. 

Joining the nurses were several area teachers who explained alarming mental health issues related to students whose parents put them in divorce court; One teacher described how a student had written in a journal with a note; "Please Read", where the teacher found vivid descriptions of horrific child abuse the student had suffered at the hands of  her own father. As a mandated reporter, the teacher reported the journal entry to the school psychologist. The teacher later learned the district attorney had been called, but had done nothing. The child was forced to return to her father, and court orders kept her entirely from her mother. 

As more nurses appeared joined  the discussion over local divorce and custody cases, horrific crimes of abuse, fraud and horrific stories revealed that these cases are being  fueled by a core group of family lawyers  who have avoided prosecution because of kickbacks to the local district attorney through Santa Clara University. Many described complaints to the State Bar and county politicians had simply been ignored. 

One nurse who neighbor is an  attorney at the State Bar said that the Bar has known lawyers are committing crimes and not being disbarred, or prosecuted based on secret deals with government lawyers in Santa Clara County, Contra Costa, Sacramento and Orange County. 

During the strike, buttons and stickers circulated and nurses, teachers and doctors appeared to be committed to getting these stories told, and bad lawyers recalled or removed from office by working across county lines and in Sacramento to bring attention to the state's law makers. 

Stanford University Law School was hoping this video would not be found. It was.

This video  connects Judge Zayner of the Santa Clara County Superior Court with the recent college cheating scandal and implicates him in a criminal medical fraud scam involving Stanford University hospitals. 

A criminal investigation is now underway to see if Zayner used his power and position as an elected judge to rig probate and divorce cases as well as civil cases involving Medicare Fraud and antitrust activity in the area's medical industry. 

Zayner's wife, Dawn Neisser,  was recently overheard talking about this 2012 video and how she and her husband used to skinny dip and do drugs with others on the campus in a manner that would be considered highly embarrassing to a sitting judge.  Zayner's involvement in the pharmaceutical industry and Stanford Healthcare is also drawing attention following the exposure of the College Cheating  Scandal, where Zayner reportedly violated the law and refused to recuse himself in cases where he was trying to rig outcomes to benefit is almamater. 

A review of Zayner's family law and probate cases show Zayner, through his associations with the Inns of Court,  Judge Zayner provided favors and favorable rulings to lawyers with a Stanford degree. In  the county's divorce, probate and conservatorships, Zayner allowed court fiduciaries and private judges to take over money management of the elderly and disabled in a manner that resulted in the conversion of estates to Zayner's closest Stanford University buddies. 

An investigative  report by the San Jose Mercury News, highlighted some of the worst cases, but what Zayner did in the county's divorce cases may have been worse. 

Known for his stoic bench conduct, Zayner may have not been the legal mind he wanted the public to believe. A core group of local judges, lawyers, Stanford professors  tapped Zayner years ago. His political rise in the courts appears to directly correlate to family and probate cases where "winners" became big donors to Stanford's hefty endowment., or Stanford Hospital. 

Former clerks and interns secretly kept  files of Zayner's contacts. Those contacts are now being cross-referenced with others  indicted in the college cheating scandal, as Zayner's family law and civil  cases are getting a new look.  

The investigation has also brought scrutiny to Judge Lori Pegg, the county's family court presiding judge and former County Counsel for Santa Clara County. Pegg and Zayner have reportedly been working in concert to cover up scandalous child support abuses, and protect Stanford University professors  who were charged with child abuse and domestic violence in their divorce cases. Worse Lori Pegg and Theodore Zayner appear to have been working to toss out civil cases involving police misconduct, in order to save the county billons in embarrassing lawsuits. 

Zayner was also the subject of a recall effort in the summer of 2016, but a secret deal with Stanford Professor Michele Dauber and Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen saw that recall foiled and Persky recalled instead. 

All those dots are now being connected and Judge Zayner, known for favorable rulings for  Stanford lawyers, and in cases where Stanford alum will benefit, as Zayner remained  silent on judges engaging in misconduct may get a new look. 

The innocent video produced by a sitting Judge's wife, may not be as innocent as Judge Zayner would like it to be as a core group of disgruntled parents and students set out to do the investigation the courts refuse to do.

Transgender: Abuses Mothers in Family Court 
For those who remember BJ Fadem as a woman, the notes and confidential papers left at Notre Dame high school in San Jose came as no surprise. Fadem,  who was never comfortable being a woman and reportedly hated his own mother  has unleashed years of torment on local children whose parents  are divorcing in Santa Clara family courts. Worse, confidential papers left at San Jose's elite Catholic High School show Fadem was also involved in the criminal trafficking of children and laundering money through the local courts in the form of court orders and appointments. The notes show Fadem working to protect Stanford professors, and high tech executives who sexually molested children and arranged sex favors including blow jobs to some of Santa Clara County's most prominent judges. Fadem is linked to Family Court Services MFT Jason Magers, also transgender, who is known for taking children from mothers as a form of grooming in the sex trafficking rings. 

Many believe the papers were left at the high school by controversial divorce attorney Elise Mitchell, who has recently experienced high staff turnover and is rumored to be frazzled purchasing a home with her husband using money laundered through the courts and payoffs from the 49ers. Payments reportedly arranged through attorney Eric Scott Geffon, now a Santa Clara County superior court judge. 

Selling the Homes of Families to Pay the Lawyers and Sex Traffickers

​James Towery, another lawyer turned bad judge, was known for  sexually harassing  the legal secretary in his own law firm. The problem for Towery was that the secretary kept notes, and his wife, Marilyn Morgan , a partner in the firm with her father, found the notes and took Towery to divorce court.

After he was appointed to the family court, Judge James Towery began using his elected office to sell the properties of families involved in local divorces in order to assure payments to court appointed lawyers, private judges and custody evaluators  who use rigged reports and junk science to separate children from their families and put them into the criminal justice or foster care systems where they are ripe for sex trafficking and abuse. 
 

Banks Funding Trafficking Through the Courts

 The papers show Judge James L. Stoelker has been using his contacts where he formerly represented big banks to assist the  money laundering scheme  using local real estate transactions and help from county assessor Larry Stone's confidential secretary.  Stone's office has coordinated the scheme through the district attorney's office where prosecutors including Deborah Medved, Terry Harman and Allison Filo have helped the trafficking ring after  Medved became a family law attorney regularly appointed to represent children in cases with judges she knew from the DAs office, including Amber Rosen, the wife of District Attorney Jeff Rosen. Medved was known for protecting Stanford professors and Silicon Valley tech executives who were part of sex trafficking rings and where many abused their own children, with impunity. 

Notes show Medved,  was arranging cash payments with the help of DDA John Chase to DA Mark Peterson in Contra Costa County. Other judges involved in the scam include: 
Santa Clara County; Patricia Lucas, Mary Arand, Julie Emede, Vincent Chiarello, Mark Pierce, Joshua Weinstein and Roberta Hayashi, all  assisted by government lawyers Lisa Herrick and Los Gatos Councilwoman Barbara Spector, formerly of Hoge Fenton. Private lawyers known for watching porn and trying to trade representation for sex include Nat Hales, Neville Spadafore, and Catherine Gallagher who are regularly appointed as private judges to keep the scam out of the public eye. 

Judges have been repaid for their rulings with mysterious payoffs on their homes and rental properties using Los Gatos based Orange Title company and connections to Intero real estate agents to do so.  

Judges Putting Kids on Drugs for Profit

Judge Manley has been rigging outcomes in drug court, while "investing" in drug companies through relatives and friends.  Court ordered drug rehab and probation monitoring  programs listed in Mitchell's notes show area lawyers and judges getting kickbacks from large drug companies and big players in local marijuana businesses. Mitchell was recently heard by a staffer bragging to clients she could get a former spouse criminally prosecuted due to her connections with John Chase and Michael Moreno in the DA's office.

Unity Care, the corporation charged with caring for foster kids in the San Jose area, is highly linked to Judge James Towery,  Judge Amber Rosen, Kayrn Sininu Towery and  Supervisor Cindy Chavez, all who profited from the drugging and abusing of children caught in Santa Clara County's juvenile system. 

Drugging of children based on recommendations and orders of court appointed lawyers appear to be key to the scam. Hundreds of CP cases and court files that are kept confidential by the courts, and state law, show the most egregious  offenses according to notes and records found at the high school. 

Judge Roberta Hayashi, one of the judges documented in Mitchell's notes reportedly  used non-profit cancer organizations to launder money to her campaigns and kickback favors to Silicon Valley's top tech industry executives whose divorces come before her in family court. Hayashi, a former judge in criminal court, has reportedly received unreported campaign contributions, and repayments on real estate owned in the upscale Los Gatos community. Hayashi's connection to the Los Gatos Police indicate much of the sex trafficking has gone through law enforcement officers tied to the Los Gatos and San Jose police. 

Disappearing Families

Sex trafficking in Silicon Valley  has been  concealed by  local media that has secret deals to kill stories related to the local courts. Judges drag out divorces to isolate children in order to traffic them. Once a divorce drags out for five years, children become isolated from their extended families and neighbors, allowing them to disappear without raising eyebrows.  

Erasing children to traffic them begins with court orders that  appoint lawyers to make decisions for a judge. Decisions are rarely based on the BEST INTEREST OF THE CHILD  and more for the best interest of the pocketbooks of judges and lawyers. Soon after an appointment,  lawyers will claim  to need appointment of custody evaluators. Most nefarious include Phil Stahl, Leslie Packer, Michael Sullivan and Ken Perlmutter, whom BJ Fadem is known to coordinate with in order to rig report outcomes in favor of a parent in on the sex trafficking scam. 

Judge Steve Austin of Contra Costa, Judge Patricia Lucas of Santa Clara and Judge Mathew Gary of Sacramento  appeared to be ring leaders of the operation, where their positions in the state courts provided them assured immunity. 

Connection to Sacramento 
One diagram in the Mitchell notes indicate Sacramento judge Mathew Gary arranged  part of the  payment  scheme  through court clerks and court reporters who were able to launder money disguised as cash payments for transcripts that were   buried in fee awards made to lawyers throughout the state. The diagram additionally shows connections and protections through local governments including elected district attorney Mark Peterson, whose sex scandals and coverups are now being reported in the press following his indictment and disbarment. District Attorney Jeff Rosen is reportedly the target of the next indictment, and recall waive resulting in the failure of his office to prosecute the undocumented immigrant who killed Willow Glen mom Bambi Larson, and the homeless man who raped a San Martin woman early in 2019. 

Children Who Escape
Several children, now grown, have come forward to describe how they were groomed for sex trafficking. Therapists appointed by the court used gaslighting and torcher to get them to hate protective parents. Once the protective parent has been legally removed by the courts, the children report being offered drugs by their court appointed lawyers and abusive parents.  Therapists also recommend prescription drugs that are forcibly given to children by court order, over the objections of protective parents.  Kids describe losing friends who don't understand the court process, slipping grades, and dropping out because they felt invisible and lost their family support system. Some become incarcerated only to find their family gone when they are released. Once the children have been isolated from their  family and community, they are ripe for the trafficking rings being operated by a core group of judges and lawyers in our family courts. 

In addition to family courts, Mitchell's papers indicate area lawyers have been secretly settling sex abuse cases against judges, high profile prosecutors,  as well as teachers and administrators at Notre Dame, Presentation and Mitty high schools. Students from those schools were told to hire lawyers and then were gaged from talking about the abuse. Robert Allard, a close friend of the DA's office,  appeared to be negotiating many of these settlements in a manner that would prevent the DA's office from prosecuting the most heinous sex abuses of children that involved connections to local lawyers, judges and custody evaluators working in Silicon Valley's criminal and family courts. 

For decades parents and Whistleblowers have complained that Silicon Valley courts have ignored corruption  that allowed pedophiles, abusers and thieves to rob and harm families for profit. 

A recent investigation links Santa Clara County's newest woman Democrat to sex trafficking, and scandalous conduct imposed by the Hammon Legal Dynasty. 

County divorce files show Ken Perlmutter is renting a home in Palo Alto for $6100 a month, and claims in his personal divorce case has exposed Perlmutter to allegations related to RICO crimes including money laundering that seeks to reduce support obligations to his former wife. 

Secret recording devices planted near Perlmutter's rental home have captured conversations with divorce attorneys; Bradford Baugh, Catherine Bechtel, Rebekah Frye, Walter Hammon and Donelle Morgan, indicate divorce lawyers, custody evaluators and CPAs are using Santa Clara County divorce cases to launder money and fleece families for profit. 

Susan Ellenberg,  who ran for Santa Clara County Supervisor in 2018,  is connected to the scam, through her campaign manager Walter Hammon. Witnesses report Hammon accepted cash payments for Ellenberg's campaign  and laundered them through his attorney trust account. Such conduct has seen  Hammon in trouble before. The pair also appeared to have worked with Hammon's wife Maben, and Los Gatos City Councilwoman Barbara Spector who is now being kicked back private judging appointments in Hammon's cases, in her new assignment as a JAMS mediator. 

County Counsel Greta Hansen and James Williams have been in on the scam as well. These  government lawyers have been making criminal conduct disappear through the county's Personnel Board. 

At the core of the corruption is the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office where the Director of Victim Services, Kasey Halcon, is reportedly working on a " catch and kill" program designed to silence victims seeking help in the county's family courts. 

Halcon reportedly has accepted cash as well, in return for turning the other way when it come to investigating the county's non- profit organization, where individuals including Lisa Pott have cheated taxpayers seeking to support victims of teen depression and suicide. Halcon is reportedly working through private attorney Barbara Spector of Los Gatos. 

Barbara Spector, formerly of Hoge Fenton,  has been caught up in what appears to be a Racketeering Enterprise involving James Towery and Valerie Houghton,  formerly of Hoge Fenton. In a complex scheme that involved judges and lawyers laundering money through the county's real estate transactions, Spector has assisted dirty lawyers converting home equity into profits and untraceable trust account deposits where she is now being paid back with private judging, ADR and mediation assignments. 

Lawyers from the DA's office appear in on the scheme, accepting kickbacks and other bribes, has become a widely accepted practice. 

Lawyers and judges involved in divorce cases are being investigated. For now the top scumbag prize is a tie between Mary Ann Grilli. who was addicted to pain medications for the last five years she ruled in family law cases, and Judge James Towery, who cheated on his first wife Marilyn Morgan. That cheating was carefully documented by a staffer in the office where Towery was partner with his wife and her father. 

Towery, then joined the Santa Clara County family court where he continued his abuse of woman, and distain for men who were not cheats like him. 

Other judges implicated in the real estate scam with questionable mortgage payoffs include Judge Patricia Lucas, Judge Vincent Chiarello and recalled judge Aaron Persky. 

Contra Costa parents successfully gathered enough signatures to place three judges on a recall ballot, tripling the threat to the security of complicit judges who have been separating and bankrupting families in California's family courts for the past two decades.. 

Joined by children who are the product of divorce in Silicon Valley, activists are turning their attention back to Santa Clara County to focus on Judge James Towery, Judge Joshua Weinstein, Judge Stuart Scott, Judge Cynthia Lie, Judge Lori Pegg and Judge Roberta Hayashi who have pandered to corrupt lawyers and loyalties over families they are elected to serve. 
Weinstein , who has returned to the family court after corrupting criminal cases, is a new focus of social media hit pieces.  He is quickly getting a reputation for rigging divorce cases and favoring lawyers after he has been seen regularly with James Towery, the most corrupt judge in Santa Clara County. ​

San Jose, February 28, 2019- 
Honesty, fair play, search for truth, unbiased application of enacted law, are among the “must have” qualities of a American Judge when they make binding, life-altering decisions on U.S. citizen’s life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.

Complaints against the California judges, and in particularly the Santa Clara County judges, supervised by the California Judicial Council, have grown in recent past.. Lack of transparency, for example;  no recording of court proceedings, judicial immunity, tampering of records, judicial misconduct tactics, cover ups, et al., renders judicial misconduct almost invisible.

However, public has grown increasingly frustrated and began documenting and sharing with the world the crisis of judicial corruption. For example, recent Santa Clara County public filings reveal uncontroverted facts supporting Judge Joshua Weinstein’s misconduct, corrupt acts, fraud on the court, creation of false record, et al.
 
It is such gross judicial misconduct that led to California State Auditor being asked to audit of the hollow California judicial oversight body, the state’s Commission on Judicial Performance

Ironically public had previously complained that Judge Joshua Weinstein routinely cozy up lawyers and “He is especially unfair to self-represented parties” see http://www.therobingroom.com/california/Judge.aspx?id=22514

Santa Clara County has been violating ADA laws and victims rights for decades. Judge Mary Ann Grilli was previously sued for her unconstitutional conduct, and Grilli's favorite divorce lawyers; Bradford Baugh, Hector Moreno and Valerie Houghton engaged in rampant tax fraud, as well as abuses of appointments for private judges, custody evaluators and minor's counsel. 

James Towery, former Chief Trial Counsel at the State Bar has been protecting lawyers like Houghton, Baugh and Moreno for decades. Jim Hoover, Donelle Morgan, Walter Hammon  and Bill Dok have been implicated as well, along with newcomers Heather Allan, Jessica Huey, Jennifer Mello, women lawyers willing to get appointments and discipline immunity the old fashioned way: On their backs. 

Judge Robert Hayashi  and Judge Lori Pegg have been drinking from the same water cooler with Towery and Jeff Rosen's wife, Amber Rosen, excepting that disregard of the law would be protected based on the good old boy network operating Silicon Valley Courts. In return, Jeff Rosen has given judges a free pass on public corruption and taxpayer waste investigations. Front and center in the cover up is Jeff Rosen's top prosecutors including David Angel, John Chase, Jay Boyarsky and even former reporter and public information officer Sean Webby.

One victim of attorney Nat Hales described who  Hales, along with other divorce lawyers including Michael Smith, Neville Spadafore, Robert Redding, James Cox , Ed Mills and Irwin Joseph have rigged divorce cases, bankrupted families and promised favorable outcomes for sex and cash payments in Santa Clara County divorce cases through private judging cases that gouged families and children for hundreds of millions of dollars. 

Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen has prosecuted parents for minor child support and custody violations, while he ignored systemic corruption in the county's family courts. 

Victims subjected to years of abuse by divorce lawyers overcharging, selling homes and raiding retirement accounts and who were ignored by mainstream media have turned to social media and memes to tell their stories and expose corruption. 

Social media has also  drawn the attention of Facebook, Netflix , and Google, who have faced legal and media attacks for their publishing of stories that many victims know to be true. 

Q is seeking stories and support from union employees in law enforcement and county agencies, as well as Oracle, Cisco, Netflix, Google, Yahoo and Paypal in order to expose corruption in Silicon Valley's family courts.

Susan Ellenberg was like many other women riding the #metoo movement into historic midterm elections. Promises of big changes made in 2018 fell short when Ellenberg cast her first votes in 2019 and demonstrated her loyalty to lawyers including divorce attorney Walter Hammon  who was front and center in Ellenberg's campaign. 

Walter Hammon is a "clean-up" divorce lawyer, retained by the most nefarious  spouses divorcing in Santa Clara County. Most recently Hammon represented an employee of the Santa Clara County District Attorney, Jeff Rosen, where Hammon's client  reportedly sexually harassed a subordinate, sending  two families into the local courts. Hammon reportedly took the case as a favor to Rosen, and to hide the settlement the county made with the employee in 2018, just before a 2019 law would require the case to be fully disclosed. 

Divorce lawyers Sharon Roper and Valerie Tarvin reportedly cleaned up the other divorce arising from the DA office scandal, where the husband, an employee for Uber, was suspected of abusing his immigrant wife after he learned of her infidelity. The divorce was quickly settled up and the settlement with the county kept secret. 

Santa Clara County employee Terry Harman has been covering up sexual abuse and harassment in the DA's office for years. Harman reportedly threatened  employees who tried to speak up and ignored complaints from the public brought directly to the DA, or through the county's Whistleblower program. Harman also reportedly helped cover up sexual abuse claims against Dominic Caserta who ran against Ellenberg andwas reportedly " outed" as a strategy designed to assure Ellenberg's win. 

Hammon, whose sons work for criminal law firms and hold leadership positions in the State Bar, is being investigated for RICO and Antitrust activity along with other lawyers from the county.  Hammon, who opposed Bradford Baugh and James Mc Manis for show, has  also been linked to Rebekah Frye and the Los Gatos police, where domestic violence is falsely charged,  or carefully covered up,  for the right price. 

Frye has also been linked to drug deals involving local youth, some of whom Frye knew faced financial problems because of their parent's divorce. 

Walter Hammon is being investigated for collecting campaign donations for Susan Ellenberg in a manner that violates the Political Reform Act and that included his Trust Account, Hammon reportedly  collected and donated cash that was not reported on Ellenberg's campaign forms. 

Parents in the county worried that Ellenberg's close relationship with Hammon would prevent her from helping families struggling with the county's family courts and complicit District Attorney, out of the gate Ellenberg may have demonstrated parents should have been worried. 

Photo: Left is what Mark Zuckerberg looked like when James Towery of Hoge Fenton, and Chief Trial Counsel at the State Bar heavily litigated the Facebook case and stole that business from Boston and from the Winkelvoss twins. 

Looks like Facebook and privacy issues can be blamed on the crooked lawyers who acted on behalf of Mark Zuckerberg and U Conn, mainly James Towery, who had moved on to California's State Bar, and locked up the Santa Clara County District Attorney's office which allowed Facebook to violate privacy and incite conflict in divorce cases.

A startling number of court orders show judges ordering one parent to not post on Facebook, or share photos of their own children when they are involved in a custody case.  More alarming are the number of subpoenas and search warrants that have been served on Facebook, a court process intended to criminal parents for using social media other parents use freely. 


Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen has a history of seizing online information to reserve engineer crimes that  benefit his political career.  This happened as Rosen's office prosecuted the Saratoga High students during the investigation of Audrie Pott's death. 

Leaked records show that Rosen used the Facebook pages of former 49er Ray McDonald to stalk victims of 49er football players in an effort to " clean up " claims of sexual assault and domestic violence that would tarnish the reputation of the 49er;s who moved to Santa Clara in 2015.

Lisa, Shelia and Larry Pott have also used an abuse of process to stalk Michael Larazin's  social media accounts, falsely claiming  that  Michael acted under various fake names on Facebook.  

Court orders show that family courts have been prosecuting parents for Facebook posts in a manner that is more than alarming. Those parents are now using Facebook, and other social media to investigate lawyers who incite such ridiculous conflicts in divorce and custody cases. 

For decades parents in family court complained about judges violating the law, separating families and acting in a manner that should have removed them from the bench. That time was a heyday for judge crimes and judicial misconduct. 

Parents had no idea where to complain , or who could help. 

Since 2010 the ubiquitous use of the internet has helped these parents to organize. To find others. They have started websites, and blogs. They have flooded social media groups, online chats and Instgram. They have even used anonymous names on popular video games to communicate with children judges kept them from. 

Now the children are growing up. They are speaking out, they are searching for parents they lost through legal abuse and where judges abused their power. 

California's State Auditor  is now monitoring complaints and Victoria Henley the WoMAN who blocked these complaints and protected bad judges will be called to a special place in hell. and jail, for what she has done to families and children.

​

Complain about a Judge in writing to: 

Parents ignored Judge Lucas' FAKE  Order as they blasted the San Jose Family Court with Megaphones , Picket Signs  and Christmas decorations in an effort to bring media attention to how California Courts are harming families. 

When the parents  left, on the last day of Hanukkah, they left a decorated  Christmas Tree filled with ornaments in memory of children who were killed, committed suicide or taken from their parents because of family court judges and corrupt divorce lawyers. 

These parents have been protesting the courts for months. Often led by Scott Largent and Michelle Chan with mighty megaphones, the parents are not backing down on getting their voices heard and media attention to the courts. 

Scott Largent was arrested last May for using a toy megaphone in the exact location of Monday's protest,  but Santa Clara County Sheriffs have reportedly backed off as Sherriff Laurie Smith refuses to enforce what many believe is an unconstitutional order issued by Judge Lucas to silence protesters during the Persky recall. 

Judge Persky was recalled in June 2018 and is now trying to get donations to pay legal fees that are a fraction of what many parents paid to get divorced in his court. 

Meanwhile, lawyers inside and out of the courthouse have become aware of criminal investigations that could get many divorce lawyers disbarred and judges removed from the bench after a link to Judge James Towery and DA Jeff Rosen reveals pressure on the San Jose Mercury to not cover family court issues date back to Rosen's 2010 election. 

Michael Lazarin was present at the protest, as he continues to fight to raise awareness related to issues involving domestic violence, which impacted his biological daughter, Audrie Pott, who committed suicide in 2012.

Lazarin has been legally abused by Lisa and Larry Pott. the greedy evil step parents of Audrie, who made a fortune off the young girl's death. Many  in  the upscale Los Gatos community believe Lisa and Larry  used Audrie's  death for greed and profit. 

Sheila Pott , Audrie's mother,  is reportedly being investigated for tax fraud and criminal charges related to claims she  assisted in an unreported campaign donation to Jeff Rosen through here real estate lending career. The Potts reportedly used private lawyer Robert Allard to arrange illegal  payments to Rosen that were not properly reported during Rosen's 2014 campaign for re-election as Santa Clara County District Attorney. 

Also present at the protest were family members of Alycia Mesiti,  the young girl whose mother and aunts could not afford to protect her in family court, where Judge Persky and Judge Chiarello   refused to follow the law and gave custody of Mesiti. and her brother. to their father, despite his criminal history of abuse and refusal to pay the most basic child support. 

Several protestors had been victimized by divorce attorneys Heather Allan, Hector Moreno, BJ Faden, Jessica Huey, Valerie Houghton, Walter Hammon, Leah Amini, Elise Mitchell, Sharon Roper  and Bradford Baugh, lawyers who are currently being investigated  RICO activity where they obtain court orders to send kids to supervised visitation centers or reunification camps where many local judges and lawyers have a financial interest.  

The protest included both mothers and fathers who are united  in exposing family court corruption where  greedy divorce lawyers are appointed to represent children, and fail. And where corrupt judges use  Kids for Cash to the lawyer with the most cash and favors. 

California's Judicial Council has tried to silence these protestors for decades. Rumor has it they are frustrated the parents in Santa Clara County, the county that just recalled Judge Arron Persky,  simply will not go away. 

Silicon Valley artists target Santa Clara County divorce lawyers: Nicole Ford, Elise Mitchell, Hector Moreno, Leah Amini, Walter Hammon Valerie Houghton,  and Bradford Baugh  for failing to protect victims of domestic violence and falsely prosecuting innocent parents in divorce cases to earn more money. Complaints  allege these lawyers have also been threatening the press to keep the 49er brand, and themselves, from becoming "tainted" in the local legal community.  

Domestic Violence in Silicon Valley is at an all time high. Not because parents are more violent, but because divorce lawyers have colluded to grab more money in a divorce case cases using DV as a litigation tactic and local district attorneys have let them. 

Divorce Attorneys Nicole Ford and Elise Mitchell were recently overheard talking about " arm  reduction surgeons"  and laughing about the fees they took in the Domestic Violence case involving former 49er Ray McDonald. A case that is getting a new look after the 49ers fired Ruben Foster following a Florida arrest for domestic violence. 

 District Attorney  Covered Up Domestic Violence to Protect 49er Image

Recently released Santa Clara police body cams show that 49er Ruben Foster got favorable treatment after the Santa Clara County DA refused to prosecute Foster for interfering with the police during a recent DV call.  Jeff Rosen when soft on similar claims that were pending against former 49er Ray McDonald, claims Rosen dragged out for three years and then let slip off into the golden plea deal Rosen is famous for offering high profile abusers. 

Josh Bentley, the lawyer for 49ers,  has reportedly been giving Jeff Rosen kickbacks to keep 49er DV issues out of Rosen's office,  and out of the  media , including by " fixing" stories that appear in the San Jose Mercury. 

Elise Mitchell, Ray McDonald's family law attorney, is a divorce lawyer (who sits on fee arbitration panels for the Santa Clara County Bar Association) was  reportedly using secret deals in fee arbitrations to kickback favors to area lawyers. Mitchell  is also charged with  giving information and kickbacks to keep former 49er  Ray McDonald, out of jail. after he  beat the mother of his child in 2014 and in 2015.

Elise Mitchell reportedly crafted the legal culture of slut shaming victims by threatening the  media to not cover Kendra's story in 2016, after it hit on ABC, NBC, TMZ, and CBS as McDonald was getting favorable treatment before Judge James Towery, a close friend of Elise Mitchell. Kendra Scott is one more high profile victim failed by Jeff Rosen, as Rosen took over the county's Victim Services and panders to his political allies in lieu of serving victims. 

DA Jeff Rosen, and his former assistant,  Kayrn Sininu- Towery have a long history of letting 49ers out of serious charges of physical violence against others,  especially  intimate partner violence. That history led to Sinunu -Towery resigning in July 2013  before she was disbarred. It is no surprise her husband, James Towery, gave favorable treatment to these players in divorce and custody cases. 

Even now Jeff Rosen is reluctant to arrest a 49er who was already arrested in another state, as the San Jose Mercury reports. 

Another link to Rosen, is criminal lawyer Dan Jensen, a lawyer who gets regular referrals from the DA's office and is reportedly is on the referral list for Silicon Valley's high tech companies like Apple, Facebook and Google. 

                                        

                                     ACTIVELY KILLING MEDIA COVERAGE 

Independent news agencies and reporters have been reporting that 49ers, private divorce lawyers  and DA have been using the media to cover up the potential harm NFL players impose in a local community. ( See Tweet of Tim Kawakami back when he tried to cover McDonald back in 2014) .

Retired  49er players report that the 49er management  took  an active role in threatening the victim of 49er Ray McDonald, and regularly trains their players to get consent on their phones so that lawyer Josh Bentley, or Dan Jensen,  can get them out of charges of domestic violence or sexual assault.

Court papers charge that Jeff Rosen, and the Santa Clara County Independent Defense Office (IDO), have been working to secret domestic violence and false claims of domestic violence back to 2010, when Rosen was running for office. More recently antitrust documents charge that Jeff Rosen has been using domestic violence victims to build his career and cover up real harm.  


                             Violence that Makes Divorce Lawyers Rich

Divorce Attorneys Sharon Roper and Bradford Baugh have been reportedly colluding to use domestic violence to earn more attorney fees, claiming they can earn over $100,000 in a single divorce case simply by adding in a false DV claim. 

DDA Allison Filo (who was charged with trying to send an innocent man to jail for rape), knew of this collusion back to 2013, but was told to cover it up as the Santa Clara County DA's office as the office was under pressure in a high profile DV case, and as the Audrie Pott suicide was being used to make money for some of Jeff Rosen's divorce lawyer friends.

Sharon Roper, a highly controversial court appointed lawyer for children, was recently hired by the Santa Clara County Courts and is charged in court documents as using false claims of domestic violence to profit herself. 

These same court  files charge that lawyers are acting in criminal conspiracies using  domestic violence as a profit opportunity. Recordings and emails that document  this conduct have been being presented to the State Bar for over 20 years, and the Bar has done little  discipline divorce lawyers who are getting rich by claiming DV in divorce cases.

While many people seek to use the legal system and fairly execute their divorce, a small number of people appear to be hiring divorce lawyers to draw out litigation and weave a false domestic violence claim, or pressure real victims to remain silent.  Sadly, good parents who may have had atypical emotional responses during a separation, are facing life time sentences that can impact their ability to work and pay support, none of which is good for children.  

                                        Can Your Divorce Lawyer Go To Jail? 

Most district attorneys refuse to prosecute perjury and criminal conspiracies in divorce cases, which has given divorce lawyers an invitation to violate the law and steal more than just outrageous fees.

An indictment of controversial divorce lawyer, Valerie Houghton, is one of the few criminal indictments charging a lawyer with felony white collar crimes, which include enhancement for stealing from a senior. Houghton was charged in 2016 and has still not gone to trial. Rumors abound that Jeff Rosen has directed the charges against Valerie Houghton to be dropped as a favor to James Towery, a sitting family court judge and close personal friend. Towery reportedly worked on Jeff Rosen's political campaigns , including when Towery was Chief Trial Council at the California State Bar.  

The Houghton indictment is a cancer on the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office. It shows how Jeff Rosen has consistently failed to prosecute lawyers and 49ers as a form of protection and collusion with private divorce lawyers. An illegal protection  that fails victims over and over again. 

​Yep that is the sound of injustice as Judge Pegg openly flits with  Jim Hoover while tossing him more money in fee awards, or as Rebekah Frye sucks up to LaDoris Cordell,  while having affairs with clients and telling them " can't go to the cops because WE own the Los Gatos PD",

Judge Hayashi is from Los Gatos and was secretly recorded at the home of a high tech exec  on Daves Avenue, agreeing to kickback rulings in domestic violence cases that are favorable to the powerful in Silicon Valley.

Santa Clara County has been rigging divorce  and domestic violence cases for over 20 years, and the District Attorney is in on it. 

Victims have been ignored when they can't hire the " right" lawyer, while abusers who hire lawyers like Hector Moreno, Marilyn Moreno , Bradford  Baugh, Frye and Lynne Yates Cater can get away with anything in Santa Clara Family Courts. 

Parents who have been arrested and jailed for not paying child support, for not turning their child over at a certain time in a created custody war are often shocked to find that what should be a simple divorce can turn into a financially crippling court proceeding that can drag out for 10 years, and that can land them in jail. 

Judges who regularly violate due process rights to take money from children do so with the blessing of Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen, whose wife is a judge in the family local court. These judges socialize at a local fraternity called the Inns of Court with lawyers like Hector Moreno, whose son is employed in the DA;s office. 

FAMILY COURT CORRUPTION:
ALWAYS INVOLVES THE LOCAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY & CORRUPT COPS

Orange County voters finally recalled their corrupt DA. His replacement, Tony Spitzer,  is the sponsor  of Megan's  Law , and  he is reportedly focusing initial efforts on CPS as well as  the lawyers and judges who have been harming children in the local family courts. 

In Santa Clara County the corruption runs so deep it can be seen through the misconduct of Allison Filo, a prosecutor who failed in a DV prosecution where she colluded with divorce attorney Bradford Baugh to prosecute for political reasons. Or John Chase, the Public Integrity DDA who regularly gives lawyers and judges a free pass. 

Moreno and Rosen are two government lawyers who have been letting lawyers and judges off the hook for criminal activity. while working to silence parents who are flagged as " troublemakers". 

When complaints to the Commission on Judicial Performance , or the State Bar are filed, the Santa Clara County DA  begins pressing criminal charges to wear out the complaining party.

Protesters who appeared at the front of the family courthouse last June, were targeted by judges and the court's lawyer, Lisa Herrick, as the recall campaign of Judge Persky ramped up during the primary elections. 

Rosen, whose own campaign saw $1 million dollar donation disappear is known to be throwing out complaints against local judges and lawyers to help his own political aspirations. A mole from the Santa Clara County Sheriffs Department has reported that Rosen tried to intervene with the election of Sherriff Laurie Smith, who has called out bad judges and bailiffs acting in family law cases, which Rosen has refused to investigated. 

Parents are being encouraged to take photos  and recordings of judges and lawyers misbehaving on Facebook, in public and at local bars. Judges may not be worried about getting in trouble from state watchdogs, or the local DA, but they have  been very bothered about information appearing on social media sites like this one. 

Keep sending photos and recordings to : CalJohnQPublic@Gmail.com

Update: One day after this post, Ehrlich removed the video from YouTube, destroying evidence of his crime. Five victims  had captured the video before it was destroyed, one version is reposted here. 

Silicon Valley divorce lawyers have become so confident that they will be ignored by the State Bar that they are now taking to social media in demonstrations that violate every aspect of lawyer ethics and duties. Shame on Ehrlich.  This video only had 203 views when Q posted it, demonstrating the Mitchell Ehrlich  isn't even very good at illegal advertising.  There are other pornographic videos Ehrlich has produced as well, leading to demands that he be immediately disbarred. 

Two years ago a group of photographers captured divorce lawyers associated with the Santa Clara County Bar Association mocking people emotionally embroiled in Silicon Valley divorce cases. Lawyers and judges openly sang about all the money they steal as they separate and destroy families across the county. 

The culture these lawyers have created, has  allowed them to emotionally abuse, sexually harass and outright steal from clients in one of the most corrupt family courts in the state. 

Judge James Towery, former Chief Trial Counsel, of the State Bar,  is responsible for much of this culture. Known for having three divorces himself, Towery was caught at a law firm cheating on his wife, when her father owned that firm. That divorce was silently and quickly settled. Towery has been retaliating against women ever since. 

Female lawyers are consistently awarded less in legal fees before Towery, and if they refuse his sexual advances, they earn even less. 

Judge Stuart Scott, a close friend of Towery's, was seen taking cash payments from Deputy Jack Solario, payments concealed as court reporter fees, but designed for special protection, and sexual favor payouts. 

Fed up with these harassing Judges, a group of court staffers have secretly recorded James Towery calling women lawyers, and litigants " sluts" , " gold-diggers "  and other disparaging names. These recordings are being secretly slipped to trusted family court reform advocates. 

Towery's gender bias is so flagrant that women litigants and lawyers report dressing provocatively to get favorable rulings,  and attorney fees awards,  in his court.  

Towery has also been caught taking bribes of 49er tickets, loan refinancing on his homes through money laundering schemes and  kickbacks  through Hoge Fenton, criminal activity that has been protected by the district attorney, who used Towery in his reelection campaigns. 

Attorney Mitchell Ehrlich, of Lonich & Patton, has been receiving "protection" from Towery and the State Bar, after Ehrlich was known to draft private settlement agreements that concealed Towery's , and other judicial officer's  misdeeds. 

Ehrlich has been seen in local bars owned by lawyer John Conway, where lawyers reportedly arrange  " dates " for James Towery, Stuart Scott, Mark Pierce, and other male lawyers, with women Ehrlich knows are being used in sex trafficking rings.

Q has learned that a group of female clerks, paralegals and lawyers are joining forces  to bring a sexual harassment law suit that may snare  hundreds of law firms, and  lawyers, in litigation that could not only get these lawyers disbarred, but stands to permanently damage their careers. 

​

 

A so- called public meeting  where Judge Lucas was scheduled to speak was canceled last month  and has yet to be rescheduled as judges and local lawyers dig in to try to influence local elections and stop the embarrassment they faced following the recall of Judge Aaron Persky last June.

As the Santa Clara County Courts prepare to announce new judicial assignments in family court, members of the local Bar association are abuzz with the usual gossip and brown- nosing that will earn them more in fee awards. 

Controversial Judge Pegg is flagged to take over from Judge Emede when it comes to presiding over the county's family court.  Judge Emede began withdrawing from county political committees as members of the pubic began to protest the court and blast judges during public comments. 

Judge James Towery is not scheduled to be rotated out of family court, despite an active  investigation into judicial misconduct underway with the Commission on Judicial Performance. Towery is also named in connection with an Antirust complaint with the California Supreme Court, where documentary evidence suggests Towery has been using the bench to help lawyers launder money through their trust accounts. 

Divorce attorneys Lynne Yates Carter, and Bradford Baugh have reportedly been working backroom deals with Silicon Valley tech executives to scrub the internet in order to help improve Towery's image, and income from the law firm Hoge Fenton. 

Towery is also being sued by a father who claims Towery helped felony indicted attorney Valerie Houghton with an underground scheme designed to steal money from parents involved in custody cases. 

Judge Mary Ann Grilli is reportedly continuing to haunt the hallways of the Santa Clara County family courthouse, [osing  as a settlement conference officer, whom Judge Cynthia Lie reported has been " ineffective in managing the lawyers". 

Judge Weinstein is returning to family court, and is reportedly taking notes from James Towery on how to make money by rigging divorce cases that Weinstein could not do in his prior criminal court assignment. 

Judge Patricia Lucas is reportedly cracking after her two years as the county's presiding judge. She told fellow judicial officers, and local lawyers,  that  public pressure and the mounting criticism she got following Scott Largent's comments as she sat on the Judicial Council, has ruined her career and ability to continue to allow the rigging of divorce cases that benefited so many local lawyers. 

Divorce lawyer Walter Hammon, who was disbarred for stealing client money,  and who reportedly has a drug addiction problem, is banking on the election of Susan Ellenberg, a close friend of Hammon's who is running for Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors, and who would likely block efforts to prosecute Hammon if he were caught up in the current antitrust activity that is being reported to the California Supreme Court.

Ellenberg reportedly had a hand in canceling the public meeting where Walter's son, Patrick Hammon,  was slated to speak after rumors indicated protestors planned to heckle the meeting and the judges who appeared. 

Judge Hayashi was reportedly ranting in court after she learned she would not get the assignment she requested.

At a recent cancer fundraising  drive at the residence of a prominent tech exec on Daves Avenue in Los Gatos, Hayashi was overheard complaining how protestors had tarnished  her political image, based on her connection to Judge Drew Takaichi through  the Korean community. 

Judge Drew Takaichi is being investigated for case rigging in cases involving certain lawyers, including Richard Falcone, whom Takaichi acted with on the Santa Clara University Law Review. Takaichi also has issued rulings in cases that involved public corruption connected to Los Gatos real estate, as a kickback to area lawyers, and Judge Hayashi, a Los Gatos resident. 

Lawyers Bradford Baugh and Liz Goodley are also reportedly connected to real estate scams through Red Carpet Realty , where Valerie Houghton had connections as she acted as custody expert under the radar for Bradford Baugh's partners. 

Judge Amber Rosen, who has decorated her juvenile court with stuffed animals,  has reportedly settled into the new courthouse with a warm welcome from fellow family court judges, as her prior contacts at the Department of Justice, and her marriage to District Attorney Jeff Rosen continues to assure  family court judges that they will be free from criminal prosecution. 

Litigants  outside Rosen's  court have begun complaining of further appearance of judicial corruption and many report  Rosen appears to be wiling to protect Judge Tondreau, who  has destroyed so many local children in his court, using relationships with divorce attorney Rebekah Frye to do so. 

Commissioner Irwin Joseph has been heard spying on litigants in private judging cases he obtained through Donelle Morgan's firm. Morgan has been known to tell clients she could get Joseph to do anything she wants.  Irwin Joseph has been part of the family court corruption since he reportedly became related by marriage to former Santa Clara County prosecutor Alan Nudelman.  

Judge Rudy and Judge Huber are reportedly being shuffled out based on their connection to case culture that is being viewed as intolerable in the #metoo movement. 

Judge Franco, who made some fair rulings, has reportedly bucked to pressure from the gang led by Judge James Towery, and is out of family court next year. 

Judge Stuart Scott is reportedly lying low under the protection of Jeff Rosen. Judge Scott  will remain in family court where he is reportedly continuing to rig divorce cases initially heard by Judge Mary Ann Grilli. 

Cindy Hendrickson, who was elevated to the bench after Judge Persky was recalled, is reportedly stuck in family court, as a punishment for not supporting the NO RECALL efforts of her fellow judges. Many claim she will be hard-pressed to shed her prosecutor culture as she presides over family court issues. 

The court's top management will boast Judge Ryan, a judge who told Patricia Lucas she didn't even know how to use the court's computer system just last year. Ryan will be supported by Judge Zayner, a judge who has been known to be assigned to cases involving local protestors, and those critical of the courts. 

Earlier this week, Zayner failed to comply with the Code of Judicial Ethics, after county Counsel Michael Rossi failed to make an appearance in a case where a self-represented father appeared in a civil matter . In that matter taxpayers have paid for  Supervisor Cindy Chavez, and Supervisor  Dave Cortese,  to obtain  restraining orders against a father,  to prevent him from speaking out about how his family was destroyed by the rulings of Judge Aaron Persky and the misdeeds of DA Jeff Rosen. 

Sadly, Judge Zayner appears to already be onboard with letting lawyers break the law, while parents seeking a simple divorce are punished  for violating the smallest rule. 

The corruption in Santa Clara County divorce courts is being exposed as divorce lawyers with lose lips, secret relationships with judges, and a history secreted from the public gradually begins to become known. 

Thank you Valerie Houghton, Donelle Morgan, Elise Mitchell, Nicole Ford, Heather Smith, Walter Hammon, Bradford Baugh, Sharon Roper, BJ Fadem, Nat Hales, Lynne Yates- Carter, James McManis and Heather Allan, for helping to contribute information used in  this post. 

 For decades the leadership in California's  court system has labeled people critical of the courts as " disgruntled", or unhappy with their legal outcomes. Turns out those disgruntled parents were right, the system was corrupt. 

After years of focusing on the He Said. She Said aspect of divorce cases, public attention is now turning to what individual judges, CPS workers and private divorce lawyers are doing to families in the name of the law. 


                              Supervised Visitation Scam  & Scandal 

Most disturbing is a finding that several judges appear to be investing in Supervised Visitation Centers, and Reunification Camps, and then funding those business with referrals from  court orders by judges and lawyers who have a financial interest in those businesses. 

Whistleblowers employed with private divorce lawyers have been leaking information for months. This information includes attorney letters, secret recordings, and  fraudulent billings that reveal trust account violations and investments in these centers. 

In a divorce case it is becoming more common that parents, with no criminal history, are bring ordered to see their children only under supervision. This supervision can cost $50-150 per hour, making it cost prohibitive for most parents and putting a price tag on a fundamental right. 


                                 Parents are not Backing Down 

From protesting in Silicon Valley in the 1990s to recalling judges in multiple counties, these parents are mad and using social media, recalls and complaints to the CJP that is now being audited by the State Auditor based on parent reform groups. 

Reform groups that used to be divided , are now joining forces . Protective Moms, father's Rights and concerned grandparents are turning their attention to state bar and judge complaints. Newsletters and social media continues to provide for the main source of communication, as mainstream media remains reluctant to take on the courts. 

For 30 years family courts have operated more like playgrounds, where the popular kids prevail and the bullies get their way. But with domestic violence claims soaring, and an unprecedented number of parents being put on supervised visitation, the injustice in the state's family courts may have reached a tipping point. 

In Contra Costa  County taxpayers are about to foot the bill for the next round of judge recalls. The recall effort has already established an underground social media news network to stay informed and connected. Judges Fannin, 

After successfully recalling Judge Persky in June of this year. Santa Clara County divorce lawyers are the subject of a new antitrust complaint. That complaint reveals how Jeff Rosen, the District Attorney, has prosecuted mothers for taking $1 from a frozen bank account, as Rosen drove the get away car for   favored divorce lawyers who stole millions of dollars from families through fraudulent  transactions connected with attorney trust accounts. 

In Solano County the DA continues to prosecute perjury in family court cases and in San Diego County, court reformers continue to rallying to remove judges for public corruption. 

                                          Dr. Ford v. Judge Kavanaugh 

The recent hearings in Judge Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings brought the media to understand that it is not if women are believed, or if Judge's should have immunity from their personal conduct, it is more about what are we going to do about it when these same issues reach our family court judges. 

Political upheaval that reached the Supreme Court in recent months, just may be the best thing going for court reform advocates. 


                   Judge Lawsuits Continue to Cost Taxpayers Millions

Santa Clara County continues to lead the way in lawsuits filed against judges and divorce lawyers. Judge Patricia Lucas, and Judge James Towery rank top in costs to taxpayers. Many of these taxpayers have tired of paying the costs for bad judges. 

While many of these lawsuits will eventually be tossed out of court, the impact on social media  and in the public domain will likely haunt judges long after they leave public life. 

James Towery is also the subject of a criminal complaint, along with private divorce lawyers Lynne  Yates Carter, Margret Patrick, James Mc Manis, Donelle Morgan, Hector Moreno, Bradford Baugh, Valerie Houghton and Leah Amini. Towery and his cronies could face indictment by a federal grand jury for violating the civil rights of litigants, and  for acting with a corrupt motive to misuse his power as a judge for personal gain and profit.  James Towery's wife, Kayrn Sinunu Towery, is also reportedly being eyed for her alleged criminal activity. Ironic given her connections to Santa Clara University's Innocence Project. 

 
In just two years, a group of fake Facebook names became California's family court's worst nightmare. 

After Joe Sweeney was jailed in August of 2016,  for posting online about his divorce, social media went nuts and the CJP audit passed and the State Auditor took on California's Judicial Watchdog to see why they are not doing their job.

Joe's Jailer, Judge Bruce Mills, took the Chicken Shit way  off the bench and retired just moments before state tax payers ripped his pension, 

Now, Judges who once sought to silence and mock  the self represented and "disgruntled litigants  groups, suddenly saw the possibility of recall, removal and replacement!

Solano moms swiftly removed two judges.

Then the groups  march straight down Main Street in Walnut Creek and Martinez, only to turn their summer months to remove Contra Costa's Judge Fannin, Judge Haight and Judge Hardie, Parents are determined to gather signatures and see these judges go just as Santa Clara County's Judge Persky was recalled on June 5, 2018, 

Add in that Judge Fannin, who has ruined more moms and self- represented moms and dads than other Contra Costa judges, is also being sued for not following the law. 


                               Enter Writer- Mom and Megaphone Wonder Michelle Chan

Now what all judges fear most is the little mom with a megaphone, and her CPS groups that are regularly stocked by judges on Facebook. 

That megaphone mom, Michelle Chan, is marching south, having started in San Francisco , swept through Contra Costa and has taken direct aim at Santa Clara County's  Judge James Towery, Judge Stuart Scott, Judge Drew Takaichi , Judge Vincent Chiarello and Judge Patricia Lucas, all who will be on the recall ballot by early 2019. 

With Bruce Mills retired, Judge Persky recalled, and six California Judges in two counties on recall lists, seems Joe Sweeney's report on the failures of the CJP,  the little groups on Facebook,  and the little mom with a megaphone,  have a better track record of taking care of dirty, incompetent and corrupt  judges than the CJP. 

 

Santa Clara County Bar Association is scrambling to address violating public trust in local family courts. Association is hosting a September event at San Jose's City Hall. Patricia Lucas is being ordered to attend on the eve of the State Auditor getting access to Santa Clara County Judge complaints. Sharon Roper ( left) is reportedly to be the subject of a new criminal complaint to the FBI and IRS. 

After a complaint that Judge Pichon was on the take by issuing orders to businesses that provides grants to her husband. Members of Q secretly recorded Judge Pichon while she dined a few blocks from the courthouse last week.  Judge Pichon has repeatedly refused to comment to this blog, so she was not asked after the recordings and court documents were leaked by a court Whistleblower. 

Part of the female leadership in Santa Clara County Courts, Judge Pichon has settled into the cronyism that plagued her male counterparts of decades. Court files show that a pro se litigant used his investigative skills to get Pichon thrown off a case where she had been issuing rulings that paid money indirectly to her own husband in the form of grant awards.  
Pichon is also believed to have buried judge complaints from Santa Clara County while she first held a seat on the CJP, the agency that disciplines judges. Pichon is also reportedly on the take with kickbacks from fee awards  Santa Clara County judges give to Hoge Fenton, and Fenwick West, local law firms that continue to pay Judge Patricia Lucas and Judge James Towery as court orders award their former firms fees. 

The FBI is currently taking complaints and investigating lawyers, judges, and Santa Clara  county's district attorney, Jeff Rosen, whose wife, Amber Rosen,  has joined Stuart Scott, Lori Pegg and James Towery and where complaints indicate attorney Catherine Gallagher appears to have made millions on kickback fees through court appointments in cases involving Hoover Krepelka, Dok, Baugh, Tarvin,and Amini, Mc. Manis Faulkner and Hoge Fenton. 

Honest Service Fraud, which involves the taking of bribes and kickbacks,  is a federal crime. Judge Pichon may have flown too close to the sun and gotten too greedy, her conduct may expose the entire Santa Clara County legal community. The most horrendous crimes are that these judges took children from parents, for money. 

New leaks show that former presiding judge and JAMs mediator, Catherine Gallagher, the former wife of disgraced Judge Danser, has received over $2 million dollars in cash fees from divorce case rigging. Much of this money appears to have been used putting her sons through private schools and college., Gallagher reportedly made secret deals with Santa Clara County judges and lawyers following her husband's removal from the bench and being stripped of his pension

Gallagher appears to have been involved in rigging over 50 Silicon Valley divorce cases, more  cases than her husband was caught rigging in the county's traffic courts. 

​In 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. 

As parents ready their children for the new school year, bulletproof backpacks have hit the market following the escalation of school shootings. Teachers are considering packing heat in the classroom and  parents divorcing in Silicon Valley are finding judges issuing orders to keep them away from their own children's school. 

A recent audit of Silicon Valley family court records show Domestic Violence Restraining Orders  (DVRO) are being issued at an epidemic rate. These court orders carry the ability to put parents with no criminal history in jail if they merely speak to, or text,  their own child.  These court orders, issued during divorce or custody disputes often require parents to pay to see their own children, under the supervision of unlicensed  court approved facilities. 

If a parent breaks these orders, the result can be criminal.

Social media groups are reporting Placer County DA Ronald "Scott" Owens recently prosecuted a mother  after her own  17- year-old daughter sent her a text message that violated such order.  The mother could  face up to a year in jail. 

Are Divorcing Parents More Dangerous Than School Shootings? 

An alarming upswing in judges issuing DVROs in family court would suggest divorcing parents are a danger to their children, and others. Upon closer look the upswing appears directly connected to the transfer of cases involving rape, violence and fraud between loved ones from the District Attorney's Office to family courts, where a single judge, not a jury, has the power to ito prosecute parents on nothing more than the allegations of the other parent. 

These orders can keep a parent from a school, can terminate he right to own guns and can limit ones employment opportunities. 

Worse, the orders are issued, not based on the request of a prosecutor, but based on a former spouse using money to continue to abusing a former spouse during a divorce. 

 False Domestic Violence Claims Make Divorce Lawyers Millions in Fees 

A finding of Domestic Violence, or Family Code Section 3044,  means big bucks for lawyers and a well funded client.  Lawyers in Silicon Valley report that adding domestic violence issues to a case can increase their attorney fees up to $100,000. 

Court files also show that district attorney offices never prosecute lawyers , or their clients, who clog local courts with false claims of domestic violence.  In fact the files show , several litigants use DV as weapons, where they are able to pay to be prosecutors and misuse the courts to tournament a former spouse. 

Many are looking to the culture local DA offices create in a community as the reason these issues are escalating. An audit of family and criminal cases show that all too often parties in  a divorce are being  charged based on politics and cronyism, or the lawyer they have  or don't have. This means big bucks for lawyers who suppress real violence at home, and manufacture false violence, for profit. 

The investigation has also revealed that lawyers who are appointed by the court; to represent children, to act as as referees/Special Masters/private judges, are assisting clients violate orders, hide money in child support cases, or openly engage in tax and payroll fraud to get out of paying spousal support. The audit shows that most DA offices tolerate this conduct for political purposes, profit , or personal gain.

Santa Clara University revealed back in 2011 that prosecutors regularly engaged in "harmful error " where criminal cases were concerned.

In 2018, Santa Clara's  Innocent Spouse Project is showing that private family law attorneys routinely file false documents, or commit other white collar crimes that include: fraud, perjury, conversion, subordination of perjury,  mail fraud and tax evasion to improve their "win" record.

As they do, District Attorneys like Jeff Rosen, have done nothing to manage and supervise the hundreds of prosecutors  in their offices, many of  whom made the 2011 list, all of whom are on the public payroll.

Looks like people angry over family courts are turing well- deserved attention to their local elected district attorney offices, where recalls and impeachment campaigns are more likely to be effective. 

They are rock stars, lawyers, judges, politicians, CEOs, nurses and touch every imaginable industry in our country, but above all they are mothers, and they are committed to protecting children more than that could do as mere women. And they are joined by good men who are willing to speak out against harm to children. 

Protective Mother's Revolution is a group that has formed a non-profit status with the mission of educating the public  and protecting children. 

The group has targeted and researched several judges in California that have been called out by Q for years, and a few more. 

After public shame the group intends to recall, impeach and make sure the crimes these judges committed against children , all in the name of the law, are exposed and these judges are held accountable. 

As a political groups target the removal of the entire Supreme Court in West Virginia, the moms are setting their sights higher and just may be able to do more than a few politicians. 
 
So how are these judges able to do what they do? 

1. They do not follow the law. 
2. They appoint their buddies as minor's counsel for children, for money, 
3. They cheat on their payroll affidavits , leaving cases pending for years, with impunity. 
4. They bring with them personal bias and hatred for their own mother's , or women. 
5. They get away with it because nobody is holding them accountable. 

WARNING: Did your Judge Make the List? 

Here are the judges that match Q's list of most corrupt  judges. These are judges willing to separate families and harm children simply to advance their own careers and sail into tax payer funded pensions: 
Judge Beverly Wood
Judge Verna Adams
Judge Mathew Gary
Judge Peter McBrien
Judge Roberta Hyashi (Investigated:  Japanese  Los  Gatos real estate corruption ring) 
Judge Drew Takaichi  (Investigated: Japanese Los Gatos real estate corruption ring) 
Judge  Cynthia Lie 
Judge Mary Ann Grilli ( retired) 
Judge James Towery (Investigated for Divorce Case Fixing and Facebook Rigging)
Judge Vincent Chiarello 
Judge Aaron Persky ( recalled)

Judge Christine Carringer ( recall / impeachment pending) 
Commissioner Elizabeth Henrickson
Judge Raymond Swope ( his own children reportedly drug addicts and criminals) 
Judge Naughton
Judge John H. Sugiyama
Judge George Galindo 

NOTICE: If any of these judges have been assigned to your divorce or custody case, run, do not walk, to the nearest group for support. Your children are about to be harmed. Your children are in danger, this is a national crisis. 

Liz Shivell, was considered a "C" rate lawyer, and after stealing her client's money, and losing in divorce court, she was disbarred. But then in violation of the law, judges and lawyers in Santa Clara County looked the other way and let Shivell work as a paralegal for shady lawyers like BJ Fadem. 

Barbara Parrish billed her clients but colluded with Bradford Baugh and Nat Hales to get free rent on her office in San Jose. She also wangled getting free rent for now disgraced attorney Liz Shivell . 
​
Leah Amini,  a snake who has been crawling around on her belly with Bradford Baugh, is reportedly getting nervous about her own bar card, based on a pending Bar investigation into Bradford Baugh, the gun slinging divorce lawyer who has robbed thousands of women and children in Silicon Valley Divorce cases. 

Leah Amini has been laundering money with criminally indicted Valerie Houghton , which doesn't appear to bother Jeff Rosen, who hasn't prosecuted a family law attorney for stealing  money, ever. 

Amini should perhaps be worried, because Liz Goodley, Baugh's last partner ended up sued when Baugh threw a woman under the bus and his malpractice insurance had to kick in $600,000 to shut her up. 

Michele Hales, the daughter of the sexual abuser and probate thief, has also been sued., as has her daddy, who stole $100,000 and couldn't; fill out a basic fee agreement. 

Maybe BJ Fadem shouldn't used disbarred lawyers to do his legal office work, he just got sued too.  Or maybe people are just tiring of Fadem using the transgender card as a GET-OUT-OF-JAIL Free card. 
 
A new federal lawsuit  about to be filed names many of these lawyers, and others who have been using Silicon Valley divorce cases to rob people blind, and harm kids by separating them from their families, for money. 

​An articulate hippie father, who lost custody of his 11 month old child , while he had no prior criminal history, ended his quote about the realities of civil rights violations in family courts to California's Judicial Council like this: 
" I was afforded no presumption of innocence, no jury and no due process", a complaint echoed by people in family courts daily. Judges are so numb to hearing complaining about their failure to apply the law, they no longer listen, and they are never disciplined. 

The father ended his speech with the following quote: 

“The State must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people. As long as the government is perceived as working for the benefit of the children, the people will happily endure almost any curtailment of liberty and any deprivation.”

While the quote has been widely used, it has been slightly modified, but it essentially describes exactly what is going on in family courts as judges fail to properly apply child support for the best interest of children and act more in the best interest of themselves and their favored lawyers. 


This is one of the best public comments available, The father articulately  explains what is happening in family courts and it is not only happening to fathers , it is happening to mothers too. Our children are in crisis with court involvement. 


The father then called out the judges sitting on the Judicial Council, including Patricia Lucas, the " legal advisor" and described violations of laws and separations of powers. He noted, violations done under the Child Support:

"In what way shape or form can you sit here with a straight face and maintain that the judiciary is   independent, or impartial when you have crawled into bed with the executive branch  for money? ". 

"Worst of all this  corruption is done under the guise that it is in the best interest of our children. Well I got a Newsflash for you...…...

90%  of all homeless and runaway kids come from fatherless homes, 32 times the average 
85% of children who show behavior problems come from fatherless homes, 20 times the average 
80% of rapists with anger problems , 14 times the average 
71% high school drop outs , 9 times the average" 

" So when the family courts take our children and drive ( parents) into poverty through the racketeering and corruption that is in labeled as being in the best interest of our children, , excuse me when I say …...I  DON"T KNOW WHAT THE HELL YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT". 

This is another brave parent who is speaking up and ringing the bell about the millions of families being separated in our family courts for money, and by corrupt judges. We need more people speaking up and not just at the border, This is happening everywhere in America. The judges who are letting it happen need to be held accountable. 

This post is dedicated to Santa Clara County general counsel Lisa Herrick, who has taken it upon herself to contact the media " in the best interest of children",  while protecting the corrupt family court judges,  court appointed lawyers,  and experts. It is also dedicated to Judge Patricia Lucas,  who was present at this public comment where,  she was personally  blasted by father Scott Largent who has had his child taken from him in Santa Clara County courts, for no reason. This is how Judge Lucas managed the court that took the child, and kept that child from Largent for two years with the help from corrupt private lawyers like Heather Allan, and corrupt public lawyers like Lisa Herrick and  Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen.

​Whoops ! Divorce lawyers couldn't use their legal might to keep Judge Persky on the bench. Now it seems they can't even score a decent ranking on Amazon's Alexa Website Rankings. 

Since investigative reporters crashed the Santa Clara County Bar Association meetings, lawyers in Silicon Valley have had somewhat of a PR problem. They also appear to have ranking problems on the internet. 

Divorce lawyers who have dominated the courts, separated families for profit and worked to destroy women as a matter of routine, aren't doing so well in the court of public opinion. 

Lawyers mentioned on this site now have a social media footprint that will report their misdeeds for generations. Their grandchildren will not need family mapping apps to tell them what crooks they were. Judges will not be revered, they will be recalled, indicted and stripped of their pensions. 

Government lawyers who engaged in misdeeds will be stricken from future jobs as employers and clients will find them too controversial to hire. 

Businesses that profited by assisting these lawyers will pay a price too,  Tim Harper, the vocational examiner who ruined families for lawyers like Catherine Bechtel and Bradford Baugh is rumored to be shuttering his business, his own son disgraced by his father's  conduct. 

Custody evaluators including Leslie Packer, John Orlando, Phil Stahl and Michael Kerner, will rue the day they helped lawyers separate families for profit,

Judges who were complicit  indifferent and who elevated their careers will be shamed for generations to come. Recalls and impeachments will drain the legal swamp. Judge James Towery, Judge Stuart Scott, Judge Jill Fannin, Judge Patricia Lucas, Judge Julie Emede, Judge Mary Arand, Judge Hyashi,  Judge Drew Takaichi, Judge Lori Pegg, Judge Carrianger, you are an  endangered species, your management of the law is Fake Justice and you will be removed from the bench, and your pension. 

Court Clerks Carla Jackson, Susan Walker, Jaretta Reser, and Julie Lara, you have violated the law to protect crooked judges, you will be prosecuted and removed from the  public payroll, 

Richard Roggia, James Cox, Nat Hales, and Michael Reedy, you have cheated more people in private judging divorce cases than any others and you deserve to be prosecuted for your crimes. 

Michele Hales, your parents are liars and cheats and you have cheated clients and lied to your own family in Hollister. 

Elise Mitchell and Heather Allan, you  tried to reverse protest and record, sorry, day late and a dollar short. Q  got there  first.

Rebekah Frye, you killed Gloria for fees and greed,  while you had sex with a client, cheated on your husband and lied to your own kid. 

Valerie Houghton,  you ruined more families than any other lawyer or MFT in Silicon Valley, then you stole money from an elderly man to pay for a rich lifestyle for you and your children could not afford. No, you won't  just lose your house as you told your friends. And the lawyers who called you out are not your stalkers, the law and Q will expose you for the criminal you are. 

Walter Hammon, stole kids while promoting his  kids in the  legal community and letting his  brother steal  client's money held in his trust account. 

Hector Moreno,  used religion and people in their most desperate hour to engage in corruption with the DA's office and steal food money from kids. There will be no forgiveness, you are a hypocrite and a crook, may you rot in hell.  God sees you, and so does Q. 

Donelle Morgan, fueled  her private jet with money she  took in violation of the law. 

Jeff Rosen, you used your own children and wife, to build your political career, while you cheated on campaign finance, put innocent people in jail,  hid evidence to get plea deals from innocent parents and children,  while you looked the other way on public corruption.  Rosen  used the local courts playing, the  Jewish "victim card"  and the jig is up.

Rosen  stole the election from Carr, when he was  the most corrupt of all. Rosen covered up and protected Rabbis who raped and  took hush money from Shir Hadash to win his DA  office. Rosen paid back emoluments by way of promotion  to Allison Filo, Stacey Capps, Jim Demetriz and Carlos Vega, when they should have been fired.  Rosen  used his  political clout to hitch his wagon to the victims of the Holocaust, as many believe he acted like a Silicon Valley version of  Hitler. 

Brad Baugh covered up for men who sexually abused kids and used his bar card and corrupt connections with Alan Nudelman and the DA's office to  put people in jail and rob them of their homes. Baugh  will rot in hell, jail and on the internet for eternity. 

Thanks to all who helped Q rank higher in the court of public opinion, and on the internet. Just goes to show dirty lawyers can't control everything,
