Horde
Fails
to
Get
Schwarzenegger
Veto
on
Anti-Male
Domestic
Violence
Bill
In
recent
weeks
thousands
of
you
have
responded
to
my
call
to
write
California
Governor
Arnold
Schwarzenegger
in
opposition
to
AB
2051,
a
bill
which
will
perpetuate
the
state's
harmful
policy
of
excluding
men
and
their
children
from
receiving
state-funded
domestic
violence
services.
Under
AB
2051,
only
"battered
women"
are
eligible
for
the
shelters,
hotel
vouchers,
counseling
and
legal
services
that
state
provides
victims
for
domestic
violence.
Schwarzenegger
signed
the
bill
on
September
30,
the
last
day
possible.
Sacramento
lobbyist
Michael
Robinson
and
the
California
Alliance
for
Families
and
Children
did
heroic
work
on
the
bill
over
the
past
several
months
to
try
to
make
the
bill
gender
neutral.
Through
his
efforts
many
Republican
legislators
opposed
the
bill
because
of
its
exclusion
of
heterosexual
men.
Over
the
past
two
years
Robinson
has
helped
defeat
several
anti-father
bills
and
helped
pass
SB
1082,
a
bill
to
help
military
parents.
I
very
much
suggest
that
anybody
interested
in
furthering
our
movement's
efforts

Michael
and

and

California
in

Direction
on

(Daily

Robinson's
Statement
on
AB
2051
Robinson
and
the
CAFC
released
the
following
statement
today:
"CAFC
Executive
Director
and
Legislative
Advocate
Michael
Robinson
spoke
with
the
Governor's
office
regarding
the
signing
of
AB
2051
Cohn;
Domestic
Violence.
"The
Governor's
staff
informed
the
CAFC
that
the
Governor
signed
AB
2051
because
he
believed
it
moved
DV
policy
in a
direction
of
becoming
more
inclusive.
Despite
his
signature,
high
level
staff
in
the
Governor's
office
confirmed
that
the
Governor
firmly
believes
that
we
should
strive
to
address
the
needs
of
all
victims
of
domestic
violence,
regardless
of
gender
or
sexual
orientation.
More
significantly,
his
office
indicated
that
they
are
interested
in
working
with
the
Legislature,
CAFC
and
other
stakeholder
groups
to
develop
a
policy
that
will
better
serve
the
entire
population
during
the
next
legislative
session.
"While
some
may
feel
that
the
outcome
of
AB
2051
was
a
defeat,
we
do
not.
As a
result
of
the
legislative
fight
CAFC
waged
on
AB
2051,
legislators
and
the
Governor's
staff
told
CAFC
that
for
the
first
time
they
are
better
informed
about
the
realities
of
DV.
"As
a
result,
we
are
encouraged
that
there
is
now
wide
and
growing
support
for
introducing
legislation
in
the
next
session
to
address
the
needs
of
all
victims,
including
straight
males
and
their
children.
Equally
important,
many
if
not
all
of
the
DV
experts
CAFC
worked
with
over
the
last
year
on
AB
2051
will
to
continue
to
stand
with
us
as
we
move
forward.
In
the
next
legislative
session
we
plan
to
bring
about
DV
reforms
that
produce
sound
social
policy
that
works
for
all
victims
and
their
children."

Has Your Career Been Impacted by Custody Issues?
After empowering people's careers for over 20 years, I was duly initiated into family law just like you--through a 30 month, $520,000 custody suit. I learned that a solid home-based business could be the best option, allowing one to shake the financial shackles while still experiencing a "no limits" career. More than ever, our kids now need a free and available parent. Be there for them...and for yourself. Darrell W. Gurney, www.CEOinShorts.com. |

A
Telling
Omission?
Can
you
tell
what's
missing
in
President
Bush's
new
National
Domestic
Violence
Awareness
Month,
2006:
A
Proclamation
by
the
President
of
the
United
States
of
America?
Here's
the
text:
"Domestic
violence
has
no
place
in
our
society,
and
we
have
a
moral
obligation
to
help
prevent
it.
The
terrible
tragedies
that
result
from
it
destroy
lives
and
insult
the
dignity
of
women,
men,
and
children.
National
Domestic
Violence
Awareness
Month
is
an
opportunity
to
underscore
our
commitment
to
bringing
an
end
to
violence
in
the
home.
"A
home
should
be a
place
of
stability,
comfort,
and
love.
Domestic
violence
shatters
this
important
foundation.
My
Administration
is
strongly
committed
to
addressing
domestic
violence
and
helping
those
who
have
been
victimized.
In
January,
I
was
proud
to
sign
legislation
reauthorizing
the
Violence
Against
Women
Act.
Since
I
announced
the
Family
Justice
Center
Initiative
in
2003,
we
have
opened
11
Family
Justice
Centers
across
the
country.
These
centers
offer
services
to
victims
and
their
families,
including
legal
advice,
counseling,
and
support.
In
addition,
we
are
continuing
to
work
with
faith-based
and
community
organizations
to
provide
training,
expertise,
and
funding
to
help
deliver
hope
and
healing
to
those
who
need
it
most.
"During
National
Domestic
Violence
Awareness
Month
and
throughout
the
year,
we
are
grateful
for
the
advocates,
counselors,
and
others
who
provide
care
to
those
affected
by
these
acts
of
cruelty
and
for
the
law
enforcement
personnel
and
others
who
work
to
bring
offenders
to
justice.
We
extend
our
compassion
to
the
victims
of
domestic
violence
and
urge
them
to
seek
assistance
through
local
Family
Justice
Centers,
faith-based
and
community
organizations,
and
the
National
Domestic
Violence
Hotline
at 1
800-799-SAFE.
By
working
together,
we
can
build
an
America
where
every
home
honors
the
value
and
dignity
of
its
loved
ones.
"NOW,
THEREFORE,
I,
GEORGE
W.
BUSH,
President
of
the
United
States
of
America,
by
virtue
of
the
authority
vested
in
me
by
the
Constitution
and
laws
of
the
United
States,
do
hereby
proclaim
October
2006
as
National
Domestic
Violence
Awareness
Month.
I
urge
all
Americans
to
reach
out
to
victims
and
help
end
domestic
violence.
"IN
WITNESS
WHEREOF,
I
have
hereunto
set
my
hand
this
twenty
ninth
day
of
September,
in
the
year
of
our
Lord
two
thousand
six,
and
of
the
Independence
of
the
United
States
of
America
the
two
hundred
and
thirty-first."
What's
missing?
References
specifically
to
women
and
only
women
as
domestic
violence
victims.
The
president
refers
to
"women,
men,
and
children"
and
then
only
uses
the
genderless
term
"victim"
afterwards.
By
contrast,
in
2003,
for
example,
Bush
placed
all
blame
for
domestic
violence
squarely
on
men,
explaining
that
"women
and
children
are
facing
dangers
in
this
country,
and
they
need
strong
allies."
Bush
praised
the
new
"Stop
Family
Violence"
stamp,
which
featured
a
portrait
of a
distraught
woman,
and
then-Attorney
General
John
Ashcroft
and
others
appeared
in
television
ads
warning
men
and
only
men
not
to
commit
domestic
violence.
Perhaps
we're
making
progress.

Finally What Child Support Payers Need
Child Support obligors face a stacked deck when squaring off against CS Enforcement's army of lawyers and agents, all pitted against some beleaguered father who's working 50 hours a week to pay his child support and support his family. The burden of proving compliance with court-ordered support falls on the obligor, not the custodial parent or the enforcement agencies. Very often fathers are forced to pay money they don't really owe, or are saddled with fake arrearages and the concomitant interest and penalties.
Since the state provides a ton of free assistance to custodial parents, fathers need quality, affordable representation for these battles. Child Support Liberation's Child Support Audits and Record Management Program helps obligors challenge arrears by producing professional, top-quality self-audits which include all the necessary records in the proper form. CSARMP then conducts quarterly audits that will alert obligors to overcharges. In addition, they will maintain ongoing records of obligations, payments and interest.
CSARMP costs only $13 a month ($38 for the first month only) and can be cancelled with only 30 days notice. To learn more or to sign up, click here and here. If you have any questions, write to Michael Kennedy of Child Support Liberation by clicking here. |

Sorry
Honey--I
Guess
It's
Over...
Usually
when
a
marriage
is
over
it's
your
spouse
who
tells
you,
but
my
wife
told
me
nothing
today
but
I
learned
my
marriage
is
over
anyway.
Why?
Because
gay
couples
in
my
home
state
of
California
will
now
file
taxes
as
if
they
were
married.
How
do I
know
this
spells
the
end
of
my
marriage?
Because
Randy
Thomasson
and
the
Campaign
for
Children
and
Families
inform
us
that
in
signing
SB
1827,
a
tax
bill,
Governor
Arnold
Schwarzenegger
has
"put
the
last
nail
in
the
coffin
for
marriage
between
a
man
and
a
woman
in
California."
Moreover,
Schwarzenegger
has
"Terminated
[the]
Last
Piece
of
Marriage."
I
don't
know
how
I'm
going
to
break
the
news
to
my
wife--I'm
sure
the
fact
that
gays
will
be
filing
their
taxes
differently
will
have
a
devastating
effect
on
our
family.
In
fact,
it
seems
quite
likely
that
these
tax
changes
will
also
lure
my
teenage
son
into
the
gay
lifestyle.
If
Randy
is
correct,
perhaps
the
only
thing
that's
kept
him
from
doing
it
so
far
was
the
tax
disadvantage
he
knew
he'd
face
one
day...
Readers
React
to
My
Column
on
Women
and
Shared
Parenting
The
Grand
Forks
Herald
printed
several
letters
in
response
to
my
recent
co-authored
column
Shared
Parenting
Initiative
Helps
Women,
Too
(Grand
Forks
Herald,
9/24/06).
The
column
explains
why
the
North
Dakota
Shared
Parenting
Initiative,
which
was
just
certified
for
the
November
ballot,
is
also
helpful
to
mothers.
I
co-authored
the
column
with
Mike
McCormick,
Executive
Director
of
the
American
Coalition
for
Fathers
and
Children.
The
Initiative
is
sponsored
by
the
ACFC's
North
Dakota
affiliate.
The
letters
can
be
seen
at
Parenting

Pros
and
cons
"Nonabusive
Men
Don't
Generate
Custody
Disputes"?
In
"Nonabusive
men
don't
generate
custody
disputes"
one
of
the
letter
writers,
Lainie
Guthrie,
wrote:
"Martha
Burk,
chair
of
the
National
Council
of
Women's
Organizations,
is
dead
wrong
when
she
says
that
the
current
child-custody
system
is a
'harmful
societal
norm'
('Shared
Parenting
Initiative
helps
women,
too,'
Page
3D,
Sept.
24).
"In
situations
where
abuse
is
not
and
has
never
been
an
issue,
good
mothers
are
fine
with
shared
parenting.
"But
shared
parenting
is a
major
problem
when
abusers
use
it
as a
tactic
to
further
punish
his
victim.
Common
sense
needs
to
prevail,
in
that
if a
man
is a
good
father
and
never
abused
his
children
or
their
mother,
why
would
the
mother
be
opposed
to
shared
parenting?
After
all,
the
arrangement
would
be
good
for
her
children
and
would
let
her
share
the
load
and
responsibility
of
parenting.
The
answer
is:
Such
a
mother
would
not
be
opposed.
"Normal,
nonabusive
men
would
not
have
to
petition
the
court
for
shared
parenting.
I
know
of
no
mother
who
would
see
shared
parenting
as a
tool
to
let
her
to
pursue
her
own
personal
interests
at
the
expense
of
her
children.
"One
has
to
question
Burk's
agenda
and
priorities."
Under
the
current
system
there
are
many
reasons
why
women
oppose
shared
parenting
with
decent
fathers,
including
post-divorce
anger
and
hurt,
child
support,
move-away
privileges,
power,
control,
and
the
misguided
belief
many
women
share
that
women
are
better
parents
than
men.
For
some
women
the
biggest
factor
is a
terminal
case
of
vindictiveness,
of
which
our
courts
so
often
act
as
enablers.
In
another
letter,
Parenting
initiative
can
benefit
all,
Jacqueline
Stellone
writes:
"I
appreciate
the
publishing
of
Mike
McCormick
and
Glenn
Sacks'
well-written
column
('Shared
Parenting
Initiative
helps
women,
too,'
Page
3D,
Sept.
24).
"I
believe
the
initiative
will
help
all
of
society.
"Under
the
current
system,
those
who
are
viewed
as
the
primary
caregiver
to
their
children
have
little
incentive
to
stay
in a
marriage
and
work
out
their
difficulties.
It
is
all
too
easy
to
walk
out
with
cries
of
abuse
and
get
substantial
child
support
awards
from
the
other
parent.
"In
contrast,
the
other
parent
rarely
gets
more
than
a
few
days
of
visitation
each
month,
and
sometimes
none
because
he
or
she
has
been
falsely
accused
of
abuse.
"The
cost
to
society
for
supporting
this
broken
system
is
generations
of
children
who
have
only
one
parent
-
children
who
repeat
the
pattern
of
behavior.
This
has
got
to
stop,
and
shared
parenting
is a
step
in
that
direction.
"By
leveling
the
playing
field
for
parents,
shared
parenting
will
encourage
them
to
take
responsibility
for
how
their
actions
affect
their
children
and
work
on
the
problems
in a
less
confrontational
manner.
"Take
children
out
of
the
middle
of
the
parent
wars.
I
hope
the
voters
of
North
Dakota
will
lead
the
way
for
the
nation
by
supporting
the
Shared
Parenting
Initiative
this
fall.
I
will
be
watching
with
hope
in
my
heart."
I
would
quibble
with
Stellone's
assertion
about
child
support
because
I
don't
believe
that
the
amount
of
child
support
most
custodial
mothers
get
after
a
divorce
is
high
enough
to
be a
big
motive
for
the
divorce.
But
she
is
absolutely
correct
that
the
system's
sharp
pro-mother/anti-father
bias
does
remove
incentives
for
women
to
stay
in
the
marriage
and
work
things
out.
Teacher
Sues
Ex-Wife

False

Abuse
From
Teacher
sues
ex-wife
for
false
claims
of
sex
abuse:
Allegations
he
molested
sons
part
of
bitter
custody
dispute
(Macomb
Daily,
8/22/06):
"An
Eastpointe
school
teacher
has
sued
his
ex-wife
for
her
false
accusations
to
police
that
he
sexually
molested
their
son
and
her
son.
"Jeffrey
Edwards,
33,
filed
a
lawsuit
in
Macomb
Circuit
Court
on
Friday,
saying
his
former
wife,
Muingo
Muthui-Edwards,
slandered
him
and
deliberately
inflicted
emotional
distress
on
him
by
telling
police
and
social
service
agencies
here
and
in
Pennsylvania
that
he
molested
the
two
boys,
aged
3
and
6.
"Eastpointe
police
and
social
service
officials
in
the
two
states
have
determined
that
the
assaults
never
occurred
and
have
cleared
Edwards
of
any
wrongdoing.
"Edwards
told
The
Macomb
Daily
on
Monday
that
he
filed
the
lawsuit
because
of
the
toll
the
made-up
accusations
have
taken
on
him.
"'I've
spent
countless
hours
and
money
defending
my
reputation,'
Edwards
said.
'This
has
been
a
nightmare,
an
atrocity.'
"The
couple,
whose
divorce
was
finalized
in
April
after
13
months
of
marriage,
are
mired
in a
custody
battle
over
their
son.
Muthui-Edwards,
who
moved
to
northeast
Pennsylvania
to
live
near
her
parents
after
the
divorce,
also
has
another
son
from
a
prior
relationship.
"Because
of
the
false
allegations
and
Muthui-Edwards
being
held
in
contempt
of
court
twice
for
failing
to
appear,
Edwards
in
April
gained
physical
custody
of
the
boy.
Muthui-Edwards
now
has
the
same
visitation
that
Edwards
had,
in a
decision
by
Judge
Antonio
Viviano
two
weeks
after
the
divorce
was
granted.
"Edwards
believes
his
ex-wife
fabricated
the
allegations
to
gain
custody.
In
the
lawsuit,
he
calls
her
statements
'malicious
for
the
purpose
of
bringing
(Edwards)
into
disrepute
and
subjecting
him
to
criminal
prosecution.'
"The
allegations
first
arose
shortly
before
a
custody
trial
was
to
be
held
in
front
of
Viviano.
Muthui-Edwards
started
complaining
to
officials
in
both
states
and
to
Eastpointe
police
late
last
year
that
the
two
boys
said
they
were
abused.
She
claimed
the
boys
told
her
that
Edwards
touched
them
inappropriately.
The
older
child
also
was
having
nightmares,
and
the
younger
child
was
digressing
in
toilet
training,
she
told
authorities.
"But
investigations
that
included
interviews
of
the
boys
and
Edwards
turned
up
no
evidence
of
abuse.
An
Eastpointe
police
report
says:
'This
case
has
been

It's
nice
to
see
a
dad
fighting
back
against
a
false
accuser.
Let's
hope
she
ends
up
having
to
write
him
a
big
check.
Beyond
all
the
other
horrors
involved,
she
easily
could
have
destroyed
Edwards'
teaching
career.
Earlier
this
year
I
appeared
on
Geraldo
at
Large
to
discuss
this
issue
and
the
Florida
case
where
a
father
attacked
a
teacher's
aid
who
had
been
accused
of
inappropriately
touching
his
teenage
daughter.
It
turns
out
that
the
charges
were
fabricated.
During
the
interview
I
told
a
couple
of
stories
about
things
I
saw
when
I
was
a
teacher.
One
of
them
happened
early
in
my
career
when
a
male
administrator
took
a
few
of
the
new
male
high
school
teachers
aside
and
told
us
the
following
story.
(Note:
in
some
schools
administrators
often
teach
a
class
or
two):
"One
time
I
was
in
my
office
and
one
of
my
students,
an
11th
grade
girl,
came
to
see
me.
She
was
upset
about
the
bad
grade
she
was
getting
in
my
class,
and
wanted
me
to
change
it.
"She
grew
increasingly
demanding
and
ended
up
threatening
me
that
she
would
make
a
charge
against
me
if I
didn't
give
her
the
grade.
"When
I
still
refused,
she
stood
up,
tore
her
shirt,
started
screaming
'Help,
Help,
he's
attacking
me'
and
ran
towards
the
door
of
the
office.
As
she
made
for
the
door
I
saw
25
years
of
hard
work
and
devotion
to
my
students
go
down
the
drain.
"Miraculously,
there
happened
to
be a
female
teacher
right
outside
the
door
who
had
been
waiting
to
talk
to
me.
When
the
girl
opened
the
door
the
female
teacher
stood
in
her
way
and
told
her
that
she
had
heard
everything.
It
saved
my
career
and
my
livelihood."
I've
covered
the
issue
of
false
allegations
in
numerous
columns
and

Wendy
McElroy on
Man Jailed
11 Years for
Contempt of
Court
Wendy
McElroy of
IFeminists.com
has an
interesting
new article
on the
outrageous
Chadwick
case,
wherein a
man has been
in jail for
11 years on
a civil
contempt
charge. In
her new
column
Are Civil
Courts In
Contempt of
Justice?
McElroy
writes:
"Corporate
lawyer H.
Beatty
Chadwick has
passed 11
years in a
Pennsylvania
county jail
on a
contempt of
civil court
charge
relating to
his divorce.
"He
'refuses' to
produce $2.5
million that
may not
exist. If he
were in the
federal
system, the
maximum
penalty for
contempt
would be 18
months. As
it is,
Chadwick --
who has
never been
convicted of
a crime or
faced a jury
-- is
indefinitely
imprisoned
without
possibility
of parole.
"Has
Chadwick
fallen
through a
crack in the
legal system
or is he
proof that
family
courts are
out-of-control,
especially
regarding
'contempt of
court'
power?
"The
'legal
crack'
theory
immediately
confronts a
problem.
According to
the
Chicago
Tribune,
the case has
produced a
'dozen pleas
to the
county
courts, nine
to state
appeals
courts, nine
to the
Pennsylvania
Supreme
Court, six
to the
nearby
federal
court, four
to the Third
Circuit
Court of
Appeals and
two to the
U.S. Supreme
Court.'
"That's
one massive
and
meticulously
sustained
'crack.'
"The
'out-of-control'
theory
immediately
confronts a
question:
what act of
contempt
could
possibly
elicit such
draconian
punishment?
"The
answer
begins in
1977 when
Chadwick
(then 39
years old)
married the
former
Barbara Jean
Crowther.
She filed
for divorce
in late
1992.
Depending on
which
account is
credited,
Chadwick is
either the
victim of a
vindictive
wife or he
is
domineering
husband who
vowed that
his wife
would never
see a penny.
"In 1994,
Barbara
Chadwick
informed the
court that
her husband
had wired
$2.5 million
out of the
country. The
judge
ordered
Chadwick to
retrieve the
funds and
place them
in a
court-controlled
account
until the
divorce was
settled.
Chadwick
claimed that
most of the
money had
been lost in
a foreign
business
deal gone
bad;
however, a
small
fraction of
the money
showed up in
a U.S. bank
under
Chadwick's
name. The
judge
ordered his
imprisonment
on civil
contempt
until the
funds were
produced.
"In civil
proceedings,
such as
divorce, a
charge of
contempt
usually
occurs in
two
circumstances.
First, a
failure to
attend court
proceedings
despite a
subpoena.
Second, the
failure to
comply with
a court
order. If
imprisonment
is ordered,
the
'sentence'
can last as
long as the
disobedience
continues or
until the
'contempt
limitation'
of the
particular
court system
is reached;
some courts
have no
limit. Since
the prisoner
is
considered
to 'hold the
key' to his
own freedom,
his
constitutional
right to due
process is
not seen to
apply.
"Chadwick
was
imprisoned
in April
1995...
"A. Leo
Sereni, a
former
president
judge in
Pennsylvania,
was
appointed to
track
Chadwick's
money.
Eighteen
months and
two
accounting
firms later,
Sereni
reported no
trace beyond
what had
been
discovered a
decade
before.
Money had
been
transferred
to Europe
and a small
fraction had
reappeared
in U.S.
accounts.
Sereni
concluded,
'most of
it...nowhere.'
"He
recommended
Chadwick's
release,
stating, 'My
God -- if he
had stolen
$2 million,
he would
have been
out a couple
of years
ago.'"

Ex-Wife
Who
Made
False
Rape
Claims
Faces
Prison
According
to
the
U.K.
Telegraph
article
Ex-Wife
Who
Made
False
Rape
Claims
Faces
Prison
(9/30/06):
"A
woman
who
falsely
cried
rape
against
her
former
husband
was
facing
jail
yesterday
after
being
convicted
of
perverting
the
course
of
justice.
"Sally
Henderson,
40,
a
mother
of
two,
described
by
the
prosecution
as a
'wicked
liar',
claimed
Richard
Cooke,
39,
had
repeatedly
raped
her
during
their
year-long
marriage.
"But
police
discovered
her
claims
were
almost
identical
to
false
allegations
she
had
made
five
years
earlier
against
a
previous
boyfriend,
Mark
Rowe,
42,
Gloucester
Crown
Court
heard.
"Lifting
an
order
preventing
her
identification,
Recorder
David
Lane,
QC,
said:
'The
public
has
a
right
to
know
the
identity
of a
person
who
makes
such
allegations
and
who
seeks
to
use
the
system
of
justice
for
her
own,
unscrupulous
ends.
"'These
two
men
were
put
through
the
extreme
anxiety
of
facing
the
most
serious
and
most
grave
offences
that
can
be
brought
against
a
man.'
"...Henderson
reported
the
false
rapes
only
after
both
men
left
her.
Mr
Cooke
was
held
in a
police
cell
for
36
hours
following
his
arrest.
"Mr
Cooke
told
the
court:
'It
was
quite
shocking
to
have
three
or
four
police
officers
arrest
you,
manhandle
you
and
take
you
away
for
something
you've
never
done...
"Lynne
Matthews,
prosecuting,
said:
'Sally
Henderson
is a
wicked
liar.
There
is
nothing
more
wicked
that
a
woman
can
do
against
her
husband
or
partner
than
to
claim
rape.
But
there
is
very
little
for
a
man
to
do
other
than
say
he
didn't
do
it.
Hell
hath
no
fury
like
a
woman
scorned
and
her
claims
were
a
tissue
of
lies.'"

I've
discussed
the
problem
of
false
marital
rape
claims
previously,
including
in
my
co-authored
column
Kuehl's
Spousal
Rape
Bill
Will
Harm
Innocent
Men
(Sacramento
News
&
Review,
6/15/06).
I
was
blasted
severely
in
the
feminist
blogosphere
for
the
column,
but
this
UK
case--two
really,
since
Henderson
had
done
the
false
accuser
number
on
her
previous
boyfriend
also--is
an
example
of
what
can
happen.
In
these
cases
the
motive
was
apparently
vindictive,
but
in
the
column
I
point
out
the
tangible,
post-divorce
benefits
false
accusers
can
sometimes
gain.

Expose False Allegations with Technology
Don't let the anti-male bias in criminal law victimize you. If you could be falsely accused by an angry woman, be prepared! Use technology to expose the real aggressor. DontMakeHerMad.com
New Jersey Divorce and Family Law
New Jersey family law attorney David Perry Davis, Esq. can help you through your divorce. In Pasqua v. Council (2006) Davis successfully challenged New Jersey's unconstitutional practice of failing to appoint attorneys for indigent child support obligors at enforcement hearings where they face incarceration. As a result of this suit, trial courts must apply the same standard used when a defendant requests a public defender in a criminal matter. www.dpdlaw.com |

Another
Example of
the 'Fake'
Parental
Alienation
Syndrome
Our
opponents
often claim
that
Parental
Alienation
Syndrome--wherein
one parent
has turned
his or her
children
against the
other
parent,
destroying
the loving
bonds the
children and
the target
parent once
enjoyed--is
a fake or
"discredited"
syndrome.
For
example,
when the
National
Organization
for Women
passed a
resolution
against PAS
at its
national
conference
in July,
they labeled
PAS a
"defense
strategy for
batterers
and sexual
predators
that
purports to
explain a
child's
estrangement
from one
parent, or
explains
away
allegations
against the
estranged
parent of
abuse/sex
abuse of
child, by
blaming the
protective
parent." I'm
often
criticized
by feminists
for my
defense of
PAS, such as
the reaction
to my
co-authored
column
Protect
Children
from
Alienation
(Providence
Journal,
7/7/06).
I found
Amy
Dickinson's
"Ask Amy"
advice
column
Daughter in
law vicious
in divorce
interesting,
particularly
the second
paragraph.
"Sad
Grandmother"
wrote:
"Dear
Amy:
"My son
and
daughter-in-law
are on the
verge of a
divorce. I
believe that
when a
marriage
ends, both
parties are
at fault. A
few weeks
ago, my
daughter-in-law
came to my
home to tell
me about the
situation,
and
reiterated
all my son's
faults.
"She's
very
self-righteous
and has a
vicious
temper. The
concern I
have is that
she is
turning her
children
(one boy and
two girls)
against
their
father. They
are more
than a
little
afraid of
her. The
oldest girl
has told me
things about
her mother,
and I know
that she
must follow
the rules or
else! She
lines them
up in front
of their
father and
tells them
what's wrong
with him.
She tells
them that
their father
doesn't love
them.
"This is
sad because
he loves
them and
works long
hours in his
law practice
to support
them
handsomely.
His practice
takes a lot
of his time,
but he is
always home
for dinner
to give them
his
attention.
However,
there is
never dinner
for him and
only a
meager
dinner for
the kids,
followed by
more sweets
than
necessary.
How should I
get involved
with this,
if at all?"
I guess
"Sad
Grandmother"
is also an
apologist
for
"batterers
and sexual
predators."
This Is
Useful
I
recently
received a
"WoodGas
Camp Stove"
from one of
my
advertisers,
and since my
son is a Boy
Scout who
frequently
goes on
camping
trips, I
thought we'd
try the
stove out.
The
manufacturers
claim that
the stove
"burns
almost any
fuel nature
provides--including
twigs, pine
cones or any
plant-based
fuel--and
provides the
cleanest
heat in even
the remotest
area." We
discovered
that the
stove works
exactly as
they say it
does--you
get as much
heat or more
than from
the
traditional
propane
camping
stoves, and
it runs on
anything you
happen to
find in the
forest. We
fried a
bunch of
bacon and
eggs using
only dried
weeds,
leaves and
sticks.

Give Us a
Break, Huh?
The media
often
carries
stories
which
greatly
exaggerate
the findings
of studies
when those
studies go
against men
and fathers.
The article
Joint
custody
fails to
reduce
violence by
ex-spouses,
researcher
says (Ottawa
Citizen,
9/25/06) is
an example.
We're told:
"Shared
child
custody
after
marriage
breakdown
can
perpetuate
spousal
violence
instead of
promoting an
amicable
divorce
settlement,
according to
a study by a
University
of Quebec
sociologist.
"Denyse
Cote, who
has
completed a
study of
residents of
women's
shelters in
the
Outaouais
and
Montreal,
says most of
the women
she
interviewed
told her
that their
former
partners
continued to
abuse them
after courts
decided on
joint
custody for
their
children...
"The
Gatineau,
Que.,
sociologist
said the
problem with
joint
custody
arrangements
is that they
can lead to
frequent
contact
between
female
victims of
violence and
males who
feel they
must remain
in control
and cannot
manage their
anger.
"Cote said
the judicial
system
should
reconsider
the idea
that joint
custody is
the best
solution in
most cases
of marriage
breakdown.
'''Joint
custody is
popular
nowadays and
corresponds
to our idea
of parental
roles being
changed,'
Cote said.
'But the
problem is
that joint
custody puts
a victim of
spousal
violence in
constant
contact with
her
aggressor.
'''One of
the
misconceptions
about joint
custody is
that it can
help couples
solve their
conflicts.
Sometimes it
is best if
the woman or
the man has
sole custody
because it
means there
will be less
contact and
less risk of
violence.'
"Cote said
joint
custody is
possible
only when
both parents
are able to
manage their
differences.
She said
high-conflict
separations
should not
lead to
joint
custody of
children."
Sounds
impressive,
right?
Except that
Cote's pool
of interview
subjects
consisted
entirely
of battered
women's
shelter
workers and
women living
at the
shelters.
She wants to
know if
women in
joint
custody
situations
are abused
by their
exes, so she
goes to
shelters--where
the only
attendees
are women
who
(supposedly)
have been
battered--to
look for
interview
subjects.
This would
be similar
to declaring
a new cancer
drug a
failure
after
conducting
studies only
of those
currently in
the
hospital,
ignoring
others--perhaps
the vast
majority--who
are not in
the hospital
because the
drug worked.
To their
credit, Cote
and reporter
Dave Rogers
do
acknowledge
that the
study is not
an attempt
to find out
how common
this problem
is. But
that's not
the way the
article is
spun, and
that's
certainly
not how the
study will
be reported
by opponents
of joint
custody and
fatherhood.
Also, we
have no
independent
substantiation
that the
women Cote
studied have
been
battered.
Certainly
some of
the women at
battered
women's
shelters
have been
victimized,
sometimes
quite
horribly.
Others are
there
because they
were injured
in mutual
combat, or
in combat
which they
themselves
initiated.
Others
haven't been
abused at
all but are
there
because they
are using
the
shelters'
facilities
as
transitional
housing.
Some contact
battered
women's
services as
custody
maneuvers.
I'm deeply
suspicious
of any study
which
declares
women to be
victims
simply
because they
and the
shelter
workers--many
of whom are
anti-male--declare
they are.
Conclusion?
The study
may (or may
not) have
turned up a
small
handful of
women who
were
genuinely
abused and
should not
be in joint
custody
situations,
but it says
nothing
about joint
custody in
general. To

Erring on
the Side of
Hidden Harm:
The Granting
of Domestic
Violence
Restraining
Orders
In
commenting
on the
ACFC's
National
Family Law
Reform
Conference
last week I
discussed
what I
believe is
excessive
judge-bashing
in the
fathers'
movement.
You can read
my comments
at
Criticism of
Judges.
David N.
Heleniak,
Esq., author
of "The New
Star
Chamber: The
New Jersey
Family Court
And The
Prevention
Of Domestic
Violence
Act" (Rutgers
Law Review,
Spring 2005)
spoke at the
conference
as part of a
panel
discussion
called "VAWA
and DV
Issues in
Shared
Parenting."
Apparently
he agrees
with some of
my
sentiments
about
judge-bashing--he
sent me his
recent
article
Erring on
the Side of
Hidden Harm:
The Granting
of Domestic
Violence
Restraining
Orders.
In the
section
quoted below
he discusses
an
interesting
case which
says volumes
about the
problems
fathers face
in family
court.
"On
September
19, 2005,
Yvette Cade
went before
Judge
Richard A.
Palumbo
seeking an
extension of
a domestic
violence
restraining
order
against her
husband,
Roger
Hargrave.
Palumbo,
whether from
confusion,
clerical
error, or a
genuine
belief that
the
extension
was
unwarranted,
dismissed
the
restraining
order. One
month later,
Hargrave
walked into
the cell
phone store
where Cade
worked,
doused her
with
gasoline,
and set her
on fire.
"Two weeks
after the
attack,
Palumbo was
removed from
all domestic
violence
cases and
placed on
administrative
duty. On
July 20,
2006, Cade
was
interviewed
by Nancy
Grace on
CNN's
Headline
Prime.
Grace,
emblematic
of the media
reaction,
introduced
the
interview
with:
"'Tonight, a
primetime
exclusive.
She went
before a
trial judge
and begged
for help,
begged for
protection.
He refused
to hear her
pleas for
help. And
then her
nightmare
came true.
Her
estranged
husband came
to her
office and
set her on
fire. But
against all
odds, she
lived, and
tonight she
wants
justice. And
PS, to the
judge that
sentenced
her to being
burned
alive,
Maryland
judge
Richard
Palumbo, you
are in
contempt!'
"Adding to
this, one of
Grace's
other
guests,
Congressman
Ted Poe,
commented:
'Well,
Nancy, you
know I
believe that
judges need
to be
accountable
for their
actions just
like we make
criminals
accountable.
And this
judge,
whether it's
a mistake or
incompetence
on his part,
he needs to
leave the
bench.' A
judicial
misconduct
hearing
scheduled
for the end
of August
was
cancelled
when Palumbo
announced he
planned to
retire on
August 4th
because of
health
problems.
"Whether or
not the
horrific
criminal act
committed by
Hargrave
would have
been
prevented
had Palumbo
extended the
restraining
order, the
Yvette Cade
tragedy and
the ensuing
backlash
against
Palumbo is
likely to
have just
one result.
As if things
weren't bad
enough
already in
the family
courts,
judges are
going to be
even more
likely to
grant
restraining
orders,
regardless
of the
facts,
rather than
risk being
held
responsible
for a
similar
tragedy."

Dave's
speech
regarding
restraining
orders at
the ACFC
conference
was very
interesting--I'm
told that
the ACFC is
planning to
make the
video of it
available. I
was
moderating
his panel,
and as he
was speaking
right next
to me I
tried to
figure out
whether he
was
extremely
nervous or
suffering
from some
kind of
illness. It
turned out
it was the
former. I
tried to
calm him
down with
these words
of
wisdom--"What
are you so
worried
about? Here
you can only
look foolish
in front of
100 people.
I've made a
fool of
myself in
front of
millions of
people..."
Ann Richards
and Men
Former
Texas
Governor Ann
Richards
died
recently and
is being
given high
praise in
eulogies
from many of
America's
political
leaders. I
can't say I
share their
high
opinions.
During
the 1988
Democratic
Party
convention
Richards was
unmerciful
towards
then-president
George Bush,
deriding him
as a
spoiled,
wimpy little
boy who'd
never done
anything for
himself.
Among many
other
things, she
described
him as a man
"who was
born with a
silver foot
in his
mouth" and
as "being
born on
third base
and thinking
he hit a
triple."
I
remember
thinking at
the time how
strange it
was that
Richards
would deride
Bush as
"spoiled"
and "wimpy"
when he had
served in
World War II
with such
distinction.
After all,
what on
earth had
Richards
ever done
that gave
her the
moral
authority to
portray Bush
as never
having to
had suffer
or
sacrifice?
Richards'
life was a
hell of a
lot safer
and easier
than Bush's.
After
Pearl Harbor
Bush
enlisted in
the Navy on
his 18th
birthday and
became the
youngest
naval
aviator in
the US
military at
that time.
According to
the
Department
of the
Navy's
George Bush
in World War
II: A Short
Bibliography:
"[Bush's]
squadron was
based on USS
San
Jacinto...San
Jacinto
commenced
operations
against the
Japanese in
the Bonin
Islands...Bush
piloted one
of four
aircraft
from VT-51
that
attacked the
Japanese
installations
on Chi Chi
Jima...During
their
attack, four
TBM Avengers
from VT-51
encountered
intense
antiaircraft
fire. While
starting the
attack,
Bush's
aircraft was
hit and his
engine
caught on
fire. He
completed
his attack
and released
the bombs
over his
target
scoring
several
damaging
hits. With
his engine
on fire,
Bush flew
several
miles from
the island,
where he and
one other
crew member
on the TBM
Avenger
bailed out
of the
aircraft."
None of
Bush's other
crewmen
survived.
Bush flew 58
combat
missions in
1944 and was
later
awarded the
Distinguished
Flying Cross
and three
Air Medals.
Amazing how
he could do
all of that
with a
silver spoon
in his
mouth...
Richards
also annoyed
me during
the
California
Gubernatorial
recall
election in
2003.
Richards
campaigned
for
Democratic
Governor
Gray Davis.
At one rally
she made the
following
domestic
violence
"joke":
"I know
you all are
worried
about the
economy in
California
but I want
to assure
you that
it's a
problem all
over the
country. In
fact in
Texas the
price of gas
has gone up
so high that
women who
want to run
over their
husbands are
car-pooling."
Richards'
"joke"
referred to
the
Clara Harris
'Murder by
Mercedes'
Case.
Harris
murdered her
husband by
running him
down
repeatedly
as the man's
teenage
daughter
begged
Harris not
to kill her
father.
I have
covered the
Harris case
extensively--so
extensively
that one of
Clara's
friends once
wrote me an
angry
letter.
Apparently
Harris
didn't like
one of my
columns
about her
case. When I
think of
poor Clara
sitting in a
jail cell
fuming over
a Glenn
Sacks column
my heart
just
breaks...
I don't
know a lot
about
Richards'
career as a
whole--if
anyone has
more
positive
memories of
her than I
have, feel
free to let
me know. To
learn more
about the
Clara Harris
case, see my
columns "In

David Harris"
(LewRockwell.com,

When
Women Do
It, It's Not
Domestic
Violence
When a
man destroys
or attempts
to destroy
the property
of his wife,
girlfriend,
or ex, we
call it
"domestic
violence." I
have mixed
emotions
about
this--on one
hand such
acts are
abusive, on
the other, I
don't like
to apply the
label
"violence"
to anything
but
violence.
Regardless,
our society
takes a very
different
approach to
such acts
when a woman
commits
them.
Witness the
lighthearted
story "When
trying to
get revenge,
details are
important" (Chicago
Sun-Times,
9/20/06):
"Two Aurora
residents
might have
learned that
lesson the
hard way
when one
woman
apparently
tried to get
back at her
allegedly
unfaithful
husband this
past
weekend.
"According
to the Kane
County
state's
attorney's
office,
Tamieka
Ayanech, 31,
called
co-worker
Johnnie
Logan, 45,
to ask for
help in
punishing
Ayanech's
husband for
supposedly
cheating on
her.
"Ayanech
wanted to
damage her
husband's
silver
truck, so
both women
went looking
for the
vehicle on
River
Street,
according to
charging
documents.
"About 8
p.m.
Saturday,
Ayanech was
seen
slashing the
tires of a
silver truck
parked in
front of the
Aurora
police
station in
the 300
block of
North River
Street,
prosecutors
said.
Ayanech had
stuffed a
candy bar
into the gas
tank, and,
with Logan,
was
attempting
to remove
the truck's
spare tire
when an
officer
approached,
prosecutors
said.
"One
problem: the
women
apparently
didn't check
the license
plate. The
truck
Ayanech and
Logan are
charged with
vandalizing
was the
personal
vehicle of
an Aurora
police
officer --
not
Ayanech's
husband.
"The
truck
sustained
$569 damage,
and both
women were
charged with
felony
criminal
damage to
property,
prosecutors
said."
Notice
that no
domestic
violence-related
charges will
be made.
I've
discussed
this double
standard on
numerous
occasions.

Sacks

Violence?
