Daily Docket News names names and more
The mercurial emailed newsletter is back, and it goes for jugular.
Daily Docket News (DDN) names the corrupt guardian ad litem in the St. Louis area in the latest edition of the emailed newsletter.
It is the fifth edition of DDN; as such, it appears the mercurial newsletter is back.
Here are my sunmaries of the previous four: edition one, edition two, edition three and edition four.
DDN first appeared in late 2020, and it was probably the first place to highlight the misdeeds of Elaine Pudlowski. Now that Elaine is a household name, DDN continues to scrutinize her cases.
Daily Docket News legal team continues to expose and report on corrupt Missouri judges even though it is common knowledge, as confirmed by our readership, most are. Judge Robert M. Heggie, an honorary member of the MCM, who sells his decisions to the highest bidder. We first reported on this case in our 11-16-2020 edition. This tragic nightmare has now come to a heartbreaking end after seven horrific years of court induced trauma. Van Den Bergh vs. Van Den Bergh, Case 15SL-DR05021 filed 08/29/2015 in the Saint Louis County Family Court was centered around a minor child disclosing to a therapist that they were molested by their father. Elaine Pudlowski, Esq., with the MCM law firm of Frankel, Rubin, Klein, Siegel, Payne & Pudlowski, P.C., who was appointed as the child’s guardian ad litem, withheld the child’s disclosure from the family court and influenced the Department of Family Services to not investigate the child’s disclosure. Elaine Pudlowski had numerous ex parte communications with Judge Sandra Farragut-Hemphill and Judge Robert M. Heggie in this case, who both blessed Elaine Pudlowski’s MCM tactics. Since 2013 until present time, this minor child repeatedly disclosed to everyone that father sexually abused her while she was in his custody. The DFS substantiated father’s sexual abuse of this minor child. But we all know by now how this story goes and the plot of fabricating untruths by court involved professionals takes center stage. The abuse of this minor child was completely concealed by Elaine Pudlowski from both Judge Sandra Farragut-Hemphill’s and Judge Robert M. Heggie’s delicate judicial ears. All court appointed therapists agreed that father should have no contact with the minor child. But the script for this case was written long before this poor minor child’s parents ever stepped foot into the courtroom. The MCM granted father legal custody so he could purchase a therapist to do his bidding, Tonia Crews, who would play father’s fiddle by closing her all seeing therapist eyes and covering her all-hearing delicate therapist ears when this minor child discloses sexual abuse. But there is a small but annoying problem for the MCM. That pesky mother, who is still bothering father and his purchased therapist, with her questions and safety concerns. Following Elaine Pudlowski’s established script and to teach mother a lesson she will never forget, father is instructed to seek permanent injunction against mother and contempt to incarcerate mother. Judge Robert M. Heggie hears father’s fabricated motion, as choreographed by Elaine Pudlowski, for permanent injunction and contempt to incarcerate mother. Father filed a Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order, Preliminary Injunction and Permanent Injunction, and a Motion for Contempt seeking mother’s incarceration. Mother asked For Judicial Review, Motion for Declaratory Judgment, and a Motion to Dismiss father’s request for restraining orders and injunction. Judge Robert M. Heggie lets father’s hearsay into evidence against mother. Judge Robert M. Heggie refused to hear mother’s evidence of child abuse or let his delicate judicial ears hear the gruesome details of child abuse. On June 30, 2022, Judge Robert M. Heggie issues his final judgment sending a very strong message to mother that if she ever raises any child safety concerns with the therapist’s that father hand selected, mother would be swiftly incarcerated. To justify his decision, Judge Robert M. Heggie had to change the narrative of his judgment. Judge Robert M. Heggie altered the truth by accusing mother of what father did in “derailing and ignoring medical needs and therapy needs, that the child has had in the past.” Judge Robert M. Heggie untruthfully said, “Due solely to Mother, this case proceeded for months.
It’s not the only time DDN mentioned Elaine in the latest edition.
