I know there are checks and balances on everything judges, lawyers and 3rd party appointees do. We know the 1st Amendment is the heart of this nation, so there is always a SCOTUS case to address the typical outraged 3rd party letter below. I was glad to see the caution used by the Utah judge as she upheld her oath on the issue of a free press. Judges can control their courtrooms but, decades of being on watch in the courts, I have witnessed the most heinous things happen to "wards" of Guardians Ad Litem doing what they do in secrecy in the Family Law, Dependency and Probate Courts. I don't know this case but, If the father in this case is a criminal, because he's a rapist .... it stands to reason that a rational judge and GAL, would err on the side of caution concerning placement of the child. If there is a real rape victim in this case, I hope she and the father receive due process and that all the evidence is proffered to a "criminal" court and is heard by a fair judge. My observations of Family Law judges is a knee jerk reaction to disclosures of crimes by victims of battery and rape. The maxim in family court is: Report abuse lose custody...for failure to protect or; report abuse lose custody for parental alienation.<Which is not a real thing, and judges don't know or don't want to know that parental alienation, is anything an abuser wants it to be. The risk GALs and Judges take with these beliefs and attitudes... is the life of the child. We have a death list of children whose fate was sealed by the horrendous rulings of judges who listen solely to the ridciulous, outrage, lies and fabricated evidence of third parties.

By using the child as an excuse to his lifetime shame of being identified in this case, they try to cover their barbaric actions of taking a child away from his mother. The same tactic was used in my case
