On 6/27/2023, my four beautiful baby boys were forcibly removed from my safe home when a warrant was fraudulently obtained by a documented child abuser with a history of violence toward them. In 2019, after seven years of physical, sexual, financial and psychological abuse, I made a predatory deal to gain my freedom and that of my five boys. I agreed to permanently waive child support and any obligation our abuser would ever have to provide for the four children we shared. I also signed my home over to him. This was done in exchange for him signing the divorce papers, full custody of the boys and the stipulated permission for my to leave our home state of Ohio to start over in Arizona. Two years later, our abuser sold the house and with a huge chunk of cash in hand, followed us across the country. Once in Arizona, corrupt lawyer on retainer, my ex was given joint custody of the children (week on/week off). This was done despite their being an active order of protection on file that he contested and was upheld after he admitted to threatening to come here to kill me. Within three months of gaining access to the boys, he began beating and choking them. DCS did nothing (not even came out). I was thereafter chased into a school and he was found with a loaded gun waiting for me in the parking lot. His lawyer made it go away and my OOP was dropped by the family court judge. The abuse intensified and finally a year later, DCS stepped in and stopped visits while they investigated, finding that he did commit the abuse but dropping it back into family court due to “their being a safe parent (me), so it not being a DCS matter”. The same judge who initially gave him custody ruled he should now have final decision-making as well to “punish” me for protecting my children who were now all diagnosed with PTSD and forbidden from seeking treatment due to their abuser stating “I don’t want them to talk to anyone!”. The children began refusing to go on visits and ultimately lost their freedom and me when a judge never met them went against the recommendation of DCS and the BIA (best interest attorney) both of whom did know the boys and the case, granting their abuser full custody and barring me from any unsupervised contact with them. In nearly a year, I saw my boys less than twenty-hours and was made to pay thousands to a knowingly corrupt court-appointed supervisor I had testified against in another case. Ultimately, the abuser admitted he lied in his warrant, claiming I had fled the state of Ohio without his knowledge or permission, writing in his petition that he had just found us and that I was a danger and in the process of fleeing again. He admitted to medical abuse of the children in his care, that he was neglecting them and that his ultimate goal was simply, “to ensure the boys never see their mother or order brother, again”. He even (in open court) admitted to beating my eldest son in the face with a metal belt buckle. None of this mattered as despite his testimony and a new, ethical and honest visitation supervisor coming on board who stated the children were actively being abused, the same judge granted this abuser permanent primary custody of the children, giving me visitation every other weekend and ordering me “never to report or cooperate in any investigation someone else reports if it relates to the abuse of my children”. I am a therapist and thus a mandated reporter. The abuse of my children has continued and intensified, resulting in one of my children having “trauma to the left testicle” caused by his father. It was also discovered that my children live in the home with another man who was arrested for felony assault with a deadly weapon while the children were there. The police won’t help. DCS won’t do anything because “these children wouldn’t ever be eligible for foster care” due to my being a safe and loving parent who can provide for them without assistance. My children aren’t protected because their is no money to be gained by DCS by getting involved. Worst of all, I am vilified and due to the ER staff reporting the incident involving the “trauma to the testicle” and another incident that warranted him receiving medical care, I may lose all access to my children permanently as my ex has filed a motion to terminate contact, citing the judge’s order to conceal his abuse. My boys are struggling every day because of the corruption of the system and the court’s need to make an example out of me as I “am a danger to the family court system” due to having historically exposed several judges, custody evaluators and even his lawyer who have since had to be removed due to my proving their direct involvement in the child trafficking and racketeering that is occurring resulting in the abuse and even death of innocent children. Please help us. I have proof of all I say and nothing to lose. They’ve already taken everything from me…

Lauren Hughes: False Child Abuse Accusations

We decided to share our story of being wrongly accused of child abuse to raise awareness and hopefully prevent the same from happening to more families. It is important to know your rights and to understand that anyone can be accused if just one doctor makes a wrong assumption. Then it becomes a game of telephone, with reality being twisted to fit their theories. In my case, I lost custody for almost a year and… Continue reading Lauren Hughes: False Child Abuse Accusations

Judges Who Break the Law and Legislate from the Bench

We all have the “guarantee” of due process of law under 5th and 14th constitutional amendments.  The 5th amendment protects the states from the federal government and the 14th amendment protects us from state officials. However, there is one little caveat that nobody seems to speak about a lot.  The immunities under the 11th amendment allow judges to break the law and rob us of our “guaranteed” rights. The 11th Amendment immunities protect judges. What… Continue reading Judges Who Break the Law and Legislate from the Bench
