On Action Radio Talking Court Reform And More
I appeared with Greg Penglis to talk about reforming family court and other topics.
I appeared on Action Radio this week to talk about reforming family courts with several victims of family court.
We come on in the third hour.
The ladies who joined me talked about providing training for judges, particularly in learning to recognize domestic violence.
This is something I steadfastly oppose.
I said on the program, “if judges need to be trained, then the problem is how we train judges.”
There have been many laws popping up in the US- Greyson's Law, Kayden’s Law, Kyra’s Law, and others- which include some form of training for family court judges.
I noted in the broadcast that a new law, Piqui's Law, is moving through the state legislature in California right now which also includes training for judges.
The problem is that training for judges means more money put into the system. Most judicial training is useless like the junket I covered in North Carolina.
The problem has never been that judges lack training; instead, judges enjoy too much power.
There is also too much money floating through the system, and the system is too complicated.
To properly reform the system, any proposed law must tackle one of those three issues. Judicial training does none of that.
We went over the Elaine Pudlowski Act, which I’ve proposed. This would eliminate judge’s ability to make court appointments like a guardian ad litem, custody evaluator, and others.
We also discussed my anti-case fixing statute. This is a law I wrote which is modeled after RICO: the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.
It’s designed to tackle the issue of case fixing in courts. As you can see below, this law can be used in far more than family court.
Judicial RICO would be a law which would criminal punish court case fixing. While this law would primarily target family court, it could be applied to any court case.
For instance, there is a notorious NYPD cop named Louis Scarcella, responsible for at least eight wrongful convictions and counting.
Scarcella’s tactics included planting evidence and coercing confessions; this and many other things would be considered predicate acts under Judicial RICO.

The problem, that a lot of people have, that they don't know what goes on. This is what goes on, mother's and father,has to pay child support,and support to have visits with the child. Guess what,there has not been one. My is from Iowa, but I believe it is the whole USA.& child support is not just a small amount. I been going with out health care, and going with out lots of other things, like wearing the same broken glasses for more than 4yrs.just think that what u have to live without,of 300 a month when it is almost all u make. &If u make more,u have to pay more,& what if u can't come up with the money. They take whatever you have,car, license.
