What is the Actual Definition of a Bad Father?

Kelly Rutherford writes from her heart on why her ongoing child custody battle represents a greater legal issue. We asked Kelly’s ex-husband, Daniel Giersch, for a statement on the show and his attorney, Fahi Takesh Hallin, responded, “Daniel Giersch continues not to comment publicly about the parties’ custody case, in order to protect the children’s privacy.”
I am sharing my story with the world so that no other mother has to experience the pain and suffering that I am going through. We have a flawed legal system and there needs to be a change.
Although I did everything within my power to facilitate a positive relationship between my ex-husband and our children, and although I traveled far and wide to facilitate a shared custodial arrangement with my ex-husband, a judge effectively deported my two (2) minor children to accommodate a man who had his VISA revoked, for reasons unknown.
Without any inquiry as to why my ex-husband’s VISA was revoked, the Judge forced my young children, both of whom are US Citizens to reside in France, even though the children have no relationship to France, nor is their father a French citizen. Although, NY was the only home my children have ever known and the children’s own counsel recommended that the children be allowed to stay in the United States with me, the Judge made a decision in direct contravention of expert opinion.
Although my children are US citizens, the fact that they reside in France places them in legal peril. The longer they remain in France, the greater the chance becomes that they are afforded the status of French residents. This is particularly dangerous because France is in no way obligated to respect and/or enforce judicial determinations made in US Courts. In essence, French officials could modify a custody and visitation decision at any time, without any legal recourse for me or my children. Change needs to happen now.

joeyisalittlekid: William M Windsor: An American Terrorist
In domestic law on February 21, 2013 at 2:11 amhttp://joeyisalittlekid.blogspot.com/2013/02/william-m-windsor-american-terrorist.html
This is the ‘go to blog’ for updates about the twisted psychopath Bill Windsor and his fake “Lawless America – con game”. Daily updates sometimes twice daily – open comments each post gathering in excess of over 200 un moderated comments. If you want to know — this is the place to go.
Kudos to joeysalittlekid and many other blogs, video mixers and so much more. WE ARE the people and we invite free thinking. I am sure that some dictators could be good… but his Fuher Bill y Windsor is most definitely not good for anyone but him self.
This entry is just one of many – one that needs reposted and shared.
William M Windsor: An American Terrorist
So I have been doing some reading up. First, on the latest over at Quatloos about Billy:
http://www.quatloos.com/Q-Forum/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=7690&hilit=windsor&start=40
As you can see, these guys have been following him along with a hoard of other characters they all call a part of the Sovereign Citizen Movement. This got me to really thinking back to when Windsor devoted an hour of filming to his buddy Carl Swensson of the Birther Movement. Then I ran across this article:
http://www.salon.com/2009/04/01/birthers/
Did you catch that? He pulled this citizen grand jury on the very day, April 1st, that Billy has announced he will do his own version on. Obviously Carl is advising him on this. Windsor is trying to learn from the mistakes Carl did in limiting it to just the Birther movement. The Why isn’t important, its the end result that matters. This is why Windsor is allowing any and everything into his fake movie. We can go from a guy who wants his cybersquatting rights, to mothers trying to get their kids back, to a guy trying to make his own currency and then to a slum lord trying to put up big billboards wherever he wants. There is nothing that connects these people other than theyagree with Billy’s preamble that the court system is broken and needs to be fixed. As long as you agree to that tenant, you are on his team. Your particular issue matters not, just the end goal.
But lets get back to this Sovereign Citizen Movement that all these characters seem to fit under. The FBI considers the SCM a domestic terrorist group and a growing threat to law enforcement. http://www.fbi.gov/stats-services/publications/law-enforcement-bulletin/september-2011/sovereign-citizens
"They could be dismissed as a nuisance, a loose network of individuals living in the United States who call themselves “sovereign citizens” and believe that federal, state, and local governments operate illegally. Some of their actions, although quirky, are not crimes. The offenses they do commit seem minor"
"However, a closer look at sovereign citizens’ more severe crimes, from financial scams to impersonating or threatening law enforcement officials, gives reason for concern."
And they conclude with this:
"Although the sovereign-citizen movement does not always rise to violence, its members’ illegal activities and past violent—including fatal—incidents against law enforcement make it a group that should be approached with knowledge and caution"
Lets look at what the Anti-Defamation League has to say about this movement and the similarities we can see in Billy:
http://archive.adl.org/learn/ext_us/SCM.asp?xpicked=4
"The key distinguishing characteristic of the sovereign citizen movement is its extreme anti-government ideology, couched in conspiratorial, pseudohistorical, pseudolegal and sometimes racist language. Many extremist movements in the 20th century have been anti-government in the sense that they opposed governmental policies, but few have been so purely anti-government that they challenged its very legitimacy"
This sounds like our guy doesn’t it?
"Members of the Posse Comitatus believed that the county was the true seat of government in the United States. They did not deny the legal existence of federal or state governments, but rather claimed that the county level was the "highest authority of government in our Republic as it is closest to the people." The basic Posse manual stated that there had been "subtle subversion" of the Constitution by various arms and levels of government, especially the judiciary."
Uh huh, this is why he wants people in all 3,300 counties across the nation to bring the charges at the county level.
Paper Terrorism
"Yet despite a pattern of violent activity, the preferred weapon of members of the sovereign citizen movement is what has come to be called "paper terrorism." Paper terrorism involves the use of fraudulent legal documents and filings, as well as the misuse of legitimate documents and filings, in order to intimidate, harass and coerce public officials, law enforcement officers and private citizens"
There is our boy Billy to the T. And don’t forget his illegal use of a 501c3 non-profit.
"One of the first tactics of the resurgent sovereign citizen movement was the formation of vigilante "common law courts." Members of these courts used them as a forum for grievances against the "de facto" government or for assistance in attempts to harass their enemies"
Yep, this is exactly where we are headed with this next phase in the Lawless Terrorist Network.
"The filing of frivolous lawsuits and liens against public officials, law enforcement officers and private citizens, on the other hand, has remained a favorite harassing strategy. These paper "attacks" intimidate their targets and have the beneficial side effect of clogging up a court system that sovereign citizens believe is illegitimate."
OMG, just stop it, this is way to accurate and telling.
So, as you can see, this is who Bill Windsor is, and this is also where we are headed. When the lemmings file their made up charges against law enforcement officials, they will be engaging in domestic terrorism along with Bill. And it needs to be overstated that everyone involved with Lawless America is connecting themselves with terrorist activities specificity delineated by the FBI. Ignorance is no excuse. You either wake up now, or finally figure it out when you are behind bars. The Pied Piper is leading you down a patch of certain destruction.

Topeka, KS: Domestic Violence Prosecutions Need to Be Funded Now!!!

This is WHY Topeka Kansas ‘Decriminalized Domestic Violence” within the City. LACK OF FUNDING! We Demand that Funding be restored so that Domestic Violence will be Prosecuted in Topeka, Kansas.
Domestic Violence Victims Need Justice Now!
The Shawnee County Commission needs to make the ‘Safety’ of Domestic Violence Victims a ‘priority’ and get adequate funding in place for the prosecution of Domestic Violence case’s and seek Justice for Victims.
The BOTTOM LINE:
The District Attorney’s Office is underfunded, under staffed (unlike the City of Topeka) and still only the most severe crimes will ever make it to trial with most pleading out to avoid cost of trial.
Domestic Violence Cases – will remain completely without consequence to batterers. At best they will be plead out to 1.) disorderly conduct or 2.) destruction of personal property. To get them out of the system quickly so that what remaining resources can be used for higher level crimes of felony.
The City of Topeka has ‘repealed’ the ban on Domestic Violence so victims no longer have the City of Topeka Court as an option to fall back on.
Currently, Domestic Violence Victims now have a better chance of winning the lottery, than having the crimes committed against them ever be prosecuted and Justice still remains denied.
We strongly urge the Shawnee County Commissioners: Shelly Buhler, Ted Ensley and Mary M. Thomas to make ‘Safety’ a priority and act swiftly to provide adequate funding for all crimes, especially the crime of Domestic Violence in Topeka, KS.

Topeka, Shawnee County, Kansas: Domestic Violence Victims Need Justice Now!
The Shawnee County Commission needs to make the ‘Safety’ of Domestic Violence Victims a ‘priority’ and get adequate funding in place for the prosecution of Domestic Violence case’s and seek Justice for Victims.
1. Shawnee County Commissioners Cut the District Attorney’s office funding by 10%. (After there was a request for an increase due to the high crime rate).
2. Shawnee County District Attorney as a result of the Budget Cuts was forced to place all Misdemeanors including Domestic Violence charges on the City of Topeka Court.
3. The City of Topeka, did not want to pay to do ‘Domestic Violence’ cases (Although quite capable)
4. The Topeka City Council, City Manager and Mayor then caused a national outrage by ‘Decriminalizing Domestic Violence’ and repealing the ban on Domestic Violence within the city limits so that they would not be jurisdiction. http://bit.ly/rgk8TL
5. Thereby forcing the Shawnee County District Attorney to ‘review’ the Domestic Violence Cases, as a State law.
6. Since the City of Topeka, ‘Decriminalized’ Domestic Violence, the Shawnee County District Attorney of course is now forced to review these cases. (Although the DA’s Office does not have sufficient funding and in fact suffered a 10% budget cut)
7. The Shawnee County Commissioner’s still have not provided adequate funding for District Attorney.
8. District Attorney is now forced to lay off 17% of his staff effective December 23, 2011. http://bit.ly/ogHoer
The District Attorney’s Office is underfunded, under staffed (unlike the City of Topeka) and still only the most severe crimes will ever make it to trial with most pleading out to avoid cost of trial.

Claudine Dombrowski could very well be considered a “Wounded Warrior” in the fight against intimate partner violence. Fighting her personal battle against her abuser for over 16 years, she’s also taken her fight across the nation helping several other battered mothers who have lost custody of their beloved children to the very person who abused them.
In a recent development in her own backyard in Shawnee County, KS, District Attorney Chad Taylor decided to hand over misdemeanor cases, like Claudine Dombrowski’s, to the city, due to funding issues. Dombrowski knew the ones to pay the price for this decision would be those caught in the crosshairs of the abuser’s rage when released, and has taken her outrage to the media.http://imaginepublicity.com/2011/09/15/the-lights-went-out-in-topeka-for-victims-of-domestic-violence-claudine-dombrowski-speaks-out/

Please comment on the original article here,
Topeka domestic abuse survivor trembling over DA’s decision to pass down misdemeanors
We need outrage to stop this political game playing at the expense of women.
Right now in Topeka Kansas—Domestic violence is LEGAL.
Since last week’s decision of the County DA to stop prosecuting Domestic Violence in the city limits, there have been 35 Domestic Violence arrests that have walked with no charges. The City manager Dan Stanley is considering a repeal in the City Ordinances that Domestic Violence is not a crime within the city, so that the City Judges and Prosecutors do not have to charge, prosecute and try any Domestic Violence. The District Attorney’s Office is refusing to accept ant City Domestic Violence Crimes.
Why it would be worse for victims.
It is very dangerous for victims of DV to report the crime as the consequences from the ‘perp’ are even worse than the actual ‘incident’ being charged. BATTERER RETALIATION. So when a DV case is pursued, it’s got to be with heavy consequences to the perp, as she (the victim) is in even more danger than she was when the charge was filed.
How a victim is treated usually has little to do with the actual system, but has everything to do with the people who work in the system.The issue is making sure the judges understand what they should be looking at for evidence in domestic violence cases. How the judge or victims’ rights advocates, police offices or city prosecutors or district attorneys or assistant district attorneys and their staff are educated, and implement those tools to aid victims and insure justice is much more important than which court should have jurisdiction.
Domestic Violence is defined as a “pattern of control’’1. DV tag law2. DA has a DV task team that do all the DV cases.3. It is extremely rare that a dv charge is ever held at dv usual they are reduced to ‘damage to personal property and disorderly conduct.’ Then it is still a misdemeanor, only after three such convictions does the 4th time warrant even felony status.Perhaps with the DV tag law, which will document all the ‘disorderly conducts, damage to personal property with a tag at the bottom showing was in relation to domestic violence—will show that pattern and perhaps then they can change the ‘misdemeanor dv conviction to felony sooner than with the NON attainable 3 DV misdemeanor convictions to the 4th as a felony.
The County DA’s office needs to maintain the Domestic Violence cases—or person injury crimes. They need the money to maintain at minim mum what they have and been doing in the area DV. In fact they need more than even that . Its is the DA’s office—the people that bring the crimes to paper, to the system, of Charges, and begin the long process of getting it through the system and getting ‘justice’ and consequences for the crime.
The DA works closely with the Secretary of State’s e.g. address confidentiality program for victims of domestic violence, the Attorney general’s office who also has a DV task team, and the Governor’s Office that gives grant funding, specific to ensure and to continue the legal prosecution of offenders, the KCSDV that provides up to date education, and best practices of understanding, prosecuting, supporting the victims of Domestic Violence and Coercive Control. The DA’s office has made huge advancements in the past 30 years with this heinous crime.
To toss it to the city will be to throw all that to the wind, the dark ages of Domestic Violence if you will—is even darker now.
I have no problem with other misdemeanors-NON person Injury offences such as hot checks, small claims courts, Code enforcement and violations.The Commissioners want to cut the budget, money, there are many County expenditures that are wasted. There are Court programs that can be cut without threat to public safety, Like parenting classes, Drug Classes, several of the so called CSO that do noting but ‘busy work’ that cannot be done by the City/municipal court. But of all the county cuts—the last one would be to cut the DA’s office—the only avenue to even begin to seek justice. For any crime, violent crimes, even violent crimes labeled as ‘just dv”.
Where city ordinance- codes are the main cases – to high grass, code compliance, housing buildings, traffic, parking meters.
However, of the two Judges (and only Judges at Municipal/city Court)
Lloyd C Swartz – A history to include usual district court ‘Case manager’ who blocks access to justice has a history of harming battered mothers. (I myself included)
Vic Miller – 3 supreme court Admonishments for Violations of the Attorney Code of ethics. 1. Incompetence, injury, Mental.At one point they were going to ‘disbar’ him, until he hired lawyer john ambrosia as defense. This hardly ever happens, I have seen attorneys make death threats, physically attack patrons in the court house, accepting bribes and shown evident biased and lack of neutrality—those actions have failed to be admonished by the Disciplinary board let alone make it to actual supreme court public admonishment.
Even Stanley the acting City manager- KNOWS how dangerous this is.
