My heart goes out to this dear boy.  From News 8 Austin:

Child recounts the night his mother was murdered

Updated: 2/25/2010 6:53 AM
By: Harlan Schmidt

Demitirous Cotton and his mom Mel when Demitrious was just three years old.

It was a riveting day of testimony in the capital murder trial of Milton Gobert, who stands accused of stabbing 30-year-old Mel Cotton to death in 2003.

Cotton’s son, Demitrious Cotton, was five when he witnessed his mother’s murder. He was also stabbed during the attack, but survived.

Now 11 years old, Demitrious took the stand Wednesday to testify face-to-face against the man accused of the attack. A full courtroom watched as he passed just feet from the man he said he saw stab his mother to death.

The boy’s family and prosecutors diligently tried keeping the boy at ease, while he was forced to recount the events of that night.

The boy answered question after question, telling how the man bound his mother while demanding her purse and repeatedly stabbed her with a knife.

“What did the knife look like?” the prosecutor asked.

“Sharp, and it had a brown handle,” he answered.

“Was the man doing anything with the knife?” the prosecutor asked.

“Yes,” Demitrious answered.

“What did you see the man do?” Demitrious was asked.

“Stab my mom,” he said.

Gobert listened as Demitrious’ testimony continued.

“What did you do when you saw the man, and your mom, and what the man was doing?” he was asked.

“I ran over and tried to pull him down by his leg,” Demitrious answered.

“You tried to pull the man down by his leg?” the prosecutor asked.

“Yes,” he replied.

“And did you say anything to the man?”

“Yes.”

“What did you say?” the prosecutor asked.

“Stop.”

Demitrious told how the man came in to his room and choked him until he was unconscious. When he awoke, he had been stabbed.

Demitrious now lives with his aunt.

The prosecution showed Demitrius a picture of him and his mother when he was three and asked him why he was bravely reliving the memories he has talked about so little since.

“What is the reason you’re trying your best to remember?” the prosecutor asked.

“For my mom,” he answered.

Demitrious now lives with his aunt, and he told the court his favorite activities were reading and playing his PlayStation.

If convicted of capital murder, Gobert could face the death penalty. It will be up to the jury to determine the sentence.

Autopsy confirms deaths of man, woman on Kauai as murder-suicide

http://www.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/20100225/BREAKING01/100225010/Autopsy+confirms+deaths+of+man++woman+on+Kauai+as+murder-suicide

The woman whose body was found Tuesday morning in a Lawai home is Kapaa High School volunteer and former weekend radio personality Clara Kaneshiro, Kauai police said Thursday.

Police on Wednesday said the man whose body was found in the home was 38-year-old Duane Bukoski of Lawai. An autopsy confirmed the deaths as a murder-suicide.

The Garden Island newspaper says Kaneshiro, 43, of Kapaa, was appointed as a member of the Family Celebration Commission by Gov. Linda Lingle in 2008, and that she was active in the Kapaa High School Parent Teacher Student Association.

Kaneshiro had also worked as a secretary in the U.S. Small Business Administration's Small Business Development Center on the campus of Kauai Community College, when she was Clara Oligo, and was a weekend radio personality on KUAI AM 720 when the studio was in Eleele Shopping Center, with the radio moniker "Sista Clara."

"Clara was a gift from God," said Pastor Matt Higa of New Hope Christian Fellowship Kapaa, who said he spent most of yesterday counseling fellow church members coping with the apparent death of a beloved, active, involved parishioner.

"Special lady, that's all I know, a good-hearted person," said Higa.

Higa said Kaneshiro's truck was found at Bukoski's Lawai residence where both bodies were discovered.

Two children were home when their father shot their mother and then himself.

 

Husband, wife dead in apparent murder-suicide

The Associated Press

TAMPA, Fla. -- Two children were home at a Tampa apartment when their father shot their mother and then himself.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office reports that deputies responded to the home Thursday morning and found the man dead from a what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The wife was taken to a hospital, where she later died.

The girls, ages 10 and 14, reportedly hid in the bathroom during the shooting and ran for help when it was over. They have been placed in state custody.

A manager at the apartment complex said the family had lived there for more than three years. He said the couple were friendly and involved in the community.

The Use of Dr. Richard Gardner's

Parental Alienation Theory (PAS)

In The Hamilton County, Ohio Courtroom Of

Judges Ronnie Panioto and Judson Shattuck Jr.

Welcome to Cincinnatipas.com. On these pages you will read the incredible lengths that Cincinnati lawyers, psychologists and judges go to lie, steal and cheat in order to protect one-another and abusers, at the expense of children and their protective parents. In essence, the court system further abuses the children by failure to protect, undoubtedly makes possible more abuse, and victimizes the accusing parent (usually mothers) by denying them custody and visitation. Individually, many of the court personnel are nice people. As a group, they are sick and wrong. This has been going on for over two decades, ever since Judge Ron Panioto took over as of one of the most pro-abuser jurists in Ohio.

Panioto's Court is a proponent of Dr. Richard Gardner's debunked PAS theory. Gardner and PAS theory have been rejected by the scientific community. See this website's Dr. Richard Gardner's PAS Debunked page to read all the amazing pro-pedophile things Gardner said and wrote before he slashed himself to death. The misogynist Gardner trained Panioto's Court personnel, an infection lasting to this day as Gardner played the court for the fools they are.

This website does the work here that the local Cincinnati media should have done long ago. The local newspapers lack the type of journalistic hustle and integrity needed to expose the danger that our children face walking into Panioto's pro-pedophile courtroom. The slow witted Panioto is not alone as Gardner's theory is most expediant, a disincentive to litigants that seek to bring time consuming allegations of abuse, and goes a long way to glossing over messy cases. Cincinnati's family court judges have bought into PAS hook, line and sinker. Read now what happens when good parents bring allegations of child molestation to Cincinnati's family court.

PAS Judge Judson Shattuck's Pro-Abuser Decision

To Protect Judge Panioto, Judge Shattuck Traumatized
The Thibodeaux Children

To Do That - He Had To Cheat

The great thing about Skyline Chili is that you can order and eat it in 15 minutes, which is about how long it takes PAS Judge Judson Shattuck to scribble allegedly pro-abuser decisions on a napkin. He roamed from county to county in southern Ohio handing out child custody decisions in favor of alleged abusers wherever he went. It's good work if you can get it. Required almost no writing skill and certainly no thought. If you know how to use copy and paste in word processing, as Judge Shattuck did, then just fill in the blanks where it says "Father's name" in front of "Awarded" and the "Mother's name" where it reads "Denied". It's good pay and your name appears on documents next to Chief Justice Thomas Moyer, who appoints the roaming PAS Judges.

Convicted abusers and alleged abusers had a mighty friend and protector in PAS Judson Shattuck. If Shattuck didn't exclude evidence of abuse allegations and testimony outright, then he simply ignored the allegations in his decisions. The reason he avoided mention of serious allegations was for the simple reason of beating any appeal of his decision. You see, if he didn't mention it at all ... then he can't be in error. No error means no reversal. That kind of thought process is evil.

Shattuck probably had but two regrets. First, that he was not always there when the mother finds out that she lost her children to an alleged abuser; and secondly, that he's not there to party with the alleged abuser when he gives him custody of the alleged victims. The shocking losses for the protective mother are an adrenaline rush for Shattuck. And the surprise wins given to the alleged abusers give him that warm, fuzzy feeling that only PAS judges can know and appreciate. He did this many times in his twisted career. Indeed, he was on a roll in November 2004, having done the exact same thing with the exact same custody and visitation schedule in the Lanfranc case the previous month.

Everybody knew that Judge Judson Shattuck Jr. had a major screw loose, that he was a knucklehead. Nobody knew why? In Greene County, Ohio, he had been called "the worst thing ever to happen to abused children". We do know that he lied on his state compensation reports regarding the Thibodeaux case. He bilked Ohio out of thousands of dollars in falsified expenses while also cheating the protective mother and her children. The knucklehead got caught and the mother's brother made him pay a heavy price with a bar complaint aimed at taking away his license, and the threat of felony charges to follow. Shattuck had deluded himself into thinking that he could cheat and get away with it, probably because he always had. But how could he not see the mother's brother coming? What a fool.

In October of 2004, PAS Judge Judson Shattuck pretended to preside over this Cincinnati child custody trial. Except that it wasn't a trial. Shattuck excluded the sexual abuse allegations from evidence. So there really was no trial. Only a sham of a trial. Shattuck ignored what evidence he did let in, Louis and Kelly Thibodeaux's reading of the "Understanding The Borderline Mother" book. Ignored as well PAS attorney Dominic Mastruserio's blatant deceit and skulduggery, and rendered a decision that demonstrated absolutely no thought or concern for the children. It could have been written between his three-way chili and cheese coney at Skyline and maybe was.

Becoming Dominic Mastruserio's willing fool, Judge Judson Shattuck humiliated himself by handing over what was left of his sorry reputation to quite possibly the most prolific liar in the Hamilton County courts. Mastruserio made a complete monkey of Judge Shattuck. At one point, when Mastruserio was caught in one of his many lies (insisting that the mother reported abuse to Children Services when it was actually the school principal), Shattuck ruled that Mastruserio didn't have to admit the deceit out loud because he's an "Italian". What a stupid thing to say. What an insult to the many fine and honest Italian lawyers in this country. Decent and hard-working Italian lawyers (that's most of 'em) find Mastruserio an embarrassment. Shattuck thinks it's funny.

After several years as the presiding judge, PAS Judge Ron Panioto quit the Thibodeaux case under pressure from the mother's brother, having botched the investigation into the original allegations that Dr. Louis Thibodeaux had sexually molested the Thibodeaux daughter, and before that, his son. The quivering Panioto ran from the case three hours into the first trial. The brother had spooked him with a steady dose of testimony linking the Panioto court evaluator, Dr. Michael Borack, who had ordered two children that he hadn't the ability to assess "deprogrammed" - as if they had been brainwashed into believing they were abused - with the 1960's Cultural Revolution in Communist China that had also sought to "re-educate" or brainwash their citizens. The point was that Hamilton County Ohio was recklessly engaging in mind control. Try doing that to an American citizen or his family and watch out! Minutes after that damning accusation and the day after this web site went public with the allegation that Panioto's top aide had perjured herself in deposition (he knew for a fact that she had), Panioto quit the case under false pretenses. Like most candy-ass bullies, he ran when he got punched.

Judge Penelope Cunningham was assigned the case. She was the only Cincinnati judge known to protect children. Her husband is right wing radio talk show host Bill "Not Hussein" Cunningham, the fellow John McCain "threw under the bus" in 2008 following tasteless remarks about Senator Barack Obama. Judge Cunningham didn't write any Profiles In Courage chapters herself, opting out of the hot Thibodeaux case for the same lame and false excuse Panioto used - that a friend was a witness. We hasten to add that Mr. Cunningham correctly has attacked on his radio show church officials who have covered up allegations of molestation. However, he has remained stone silent about the skeletons in his wife's worklife, that she rubs shoulders daily with people who award custody to child molesters and do it under the auspices of junk science, namely the pro-pedophile PAS theory. While decrying others who do the wrong thing, Mr. Cunningham stops short at pointing the finger at people of whom he is likely to see at his wife's Christmas party.

So the Thibodeaux case rolled to the third and last Cincinnati judge, Susan Tolbert, who had been the subject of an NBC Dateline report for having awarded custody in another case to ... an alleged child molester. See here Dateline NBC - Farmer that Judge Tolbert failed to protect the little girl and caused that mother and daughter to flee the country, making a felon of the mom. So Judge Tolbert was immediately attacked on this cincinnatipas.com website because her mind has been poisoned by PAS theory. Unlike Judges Panioto and Cunningham, Tolbert admitted to reading this website and recused herself as a result of it. So she's no liar. A stupid PAS jurist, but no liar.

In sports they say winning starts at the top. In law it can be said ethics, or the lack of it, does too. Ohio Chief Justice Thomas Moyer assigned the crookedest judge he could find, Judson L. Shattuck Jr. of nearby Greene County. Shattuck bent over backwards to cheat the children and their mother from their day in court. He served not to protect the allegedly abused children, but to protect the alleged child abuser, Louis Thibodeaux. In his decision, Judge Shattuck cited none of the trial testimony, witnesses or exhibit evidence, which strongly favored the mother. But that's what PAS judges do, ignore evidence that is damaging to alleged abusers. Shattuck's decision demonstrated almost no thought or effort. He was a hired gun, a hack, who was sent to protect Panioto, who had come under fire for his pro-abuser court rulings.

Unfortunately for Dr. Louis Thibodeaux, because his PAS attorney Dominic Mastruserio also struggled so mightily to keep out the allegations of child sexual abuse, lying often in the process, there is absolutely no vindication for Mr. Thibodeaux.

The question still remains, did Mr. Thibodeaux abuse his children as a number of therapists suggest? And if he didn't, why would his attorney lie for him in court? And why would he not want a trial on the abuse allegations? Didn't he want his name cleared? Why run if you're innocent? What happened, or better still, what didn't happen in Shattuck's court, leaves nothing answered, nothing settled.

Of course, everyone also wonders and it's so very worth asking ...

... why won't Mr. Thibodeaux take his children to a therapist, a mandatory reporter of abuse?

Or does the question also serve as the answer?

Shattuck, well known in Greene County, Ohio for supporting suspected child abusers, denied the mother the opportunity to have a highly qualified and nationally prominent therapist interview the children. The shocking decision protected Louis Thibodeaux from possible new allegations of abuse and trapped the children into Dr. Michael Borack's incompetent PAS reports of four years prior.

The children had not been evaluated since 2001 - though they subsequently disclosed abuse to school counselors - because the mother was precluded from doing so. She would have lost visitation if she had taken her children to a therapist. Mr. Thibodeaux admitted in court that his children needed therapy, but that he couldn't find anyone to see them. He blames this website. As of 2008, he still has denied them therapy.

We hasten to call attention, however, to the fact that all therapists are mandatory reporters of abuse, and if the children disclose yet again, Mr. Thibodeaux would be in even more trouble. Isn't that really why he has never taken them to a therapist? After all, if the children have been coached, a good therapist would likely uncover it and vindication results. But Mr. Thibodeaux would not take them to a therapist. Why not?

But one thing was for certain, Judge Shattuck was also not in search of the truth when he denied the mother the right to have the children evaluated by a nationally prominent therapist. Did that decision serve the children's best interest? Of course not. Whomever Shattuck was protecting, it wasn't the children.

Shattuck did not allow the mother to present evidence or testimony regarding the sexual abuse allegations leveled against Louis Thibodeaux by three separate therapists (Kowalski, Boat & Olafson). Again ruling to protect the alleged abuser, Louis Thibodeaux, Shattuck denied the mother her day in court, and denied the children justice as well. For that this site will hound him to the grave.

Understanding The Borderline Mother

In his tersely worded Skyline Chili decision, Judge Shattuck completely ignored the trial's remaining number one issue, the only one he would leave on the table, that Mr. Thibodeaux had intentionally denigrated the mother by having his wife Kelly Reichert Thibodeaux read to the children"Understanding The Borderline Mother". Judge Shattuck devoted zero words to the book. So it must be okay for alleged abusers and step-mothers to read psychological books to children to convince them that their mother is crazy. Judge Shattuck considers that sort of thing unworthy of the slightest comment.

So is it now okay for the mother to read to the children "Understanding The Borderline Child Molester"? I think we all know what a PAS court would do in that situation.

Clouding the real legal issue of child abuse and who really is the better parent, Judge Shattuck used the excuse that the mother is a flight attendant and AWARDED custody to the alleged abuser, a doctor, who is also very busy or should be. Shattuck strained to find any morsel to deny the mother. It read lame because it was lame.

Which REWARDED Louis Thibodeaux and his deceitful attorney, Dominic Mastruserio, for using "Parental Alienation" theory against the protective mother.

The Mother appealed and lost.

If a PAS court is sick and twisted (see Hamilton County, Ohio), there is no control mechanism in place to reign them in. The Appeals Court lacks spine, common sense, intellect and legal ethics as they reward blatant deceit which serves to further trap allegedly abused children. On the one hand they boast about serving on the board of "Pro-Kids" while on the other they validate judges who are "Pro-Abuser". The geniuses who looked the other way in the Thibodeaux case are Hildebrandt, Painter & Sundermann.

After Shattuck's pro-abuser decision, the delighted PAS Court Administrator Ray Shannon and Mr. Panioto supplanted the usual visiting judge, Charles Lowman of Montgomery County, by specifically requesting henceforth of Ohio Chief Justice Thomas Moyer, the more pleasing crook of a judge, Judson L. Shattuck Jr. of Greene County Ohio.

So Lowman is out and Shattuck is in. Mr. Lowman should feel honored to be rejected by misters Panioto and Shannon.

Judge Lowman had been assigned to every Hamilton County case requiring a visiting judge from 2001 until the Thibodeaux case in 2004. Judge Shattuck now gets all of Hamilton County's business. Give a PAS Court a PAS decision, and more business will follow.

How did the Hamilton County Domestic Relations Court take away the children from an "excellent mother"? In short, the PAS court used pro-abuser PAS theory against her and then cheated her again by hiding the court evaluator's PAS reports from the Appeals Court.

Because of those actions, the mother never received a full trial on the sexual abuse issues.

The trial judge (Shattuck) ignored every transgression of the alleged abuser, all the trial testimony and evidence - and then took away the mother's children. His Skyline Chili decision does not explain his reasoning. He can't explain it.

Here's a brief case history:

1. In 2000, child abuse expert Dr. Jacqueline Kowalski determined with "psychological certainty" that Louis Thibodeaux had abused his three year old daughter and brought the allegations to Judge Ron Panioto’Äôs court.

2. Judge Panioto turned to Dr. Richard Gardner's debunked, pro-abuser PAS theory and appointed Dr. Michael Borack, a "parental alienation" expert, to investigate the abuse allegations and report his findings to the court. His old buddy, Dominic Mastruserio, who is Louis Thibodeaux's deceitful attorney, had requested a "parental alienation" expert. Good buddy Panioto replied, "I have no problem with that." The PAS fix was in. This is what they do to protective parents.

3. But Dr. Borack did not investigate the sexual abuse allegations against Mr. Thibodeaux. PAS evaluators almost always attack the protective parent and Borack did exactly that, following Gardner's methods right down to deprogramming the children and recommending full custody to Mr. Thibodeaux. Borack ignored his two court appointed deprogrammers, Drs. Boat & Olafson, who called the mother "excellent" and "honest" and like Dr. Kowalski, reported non-coached disclosures of "possible sexual touching".

4. When the mother protested to Mr. Thibodeaux in July 2000 that their 8 year old son did not like his father physically bathing him, Dr. Borack did not investigate the new allegation of abuse, but instead wrote another report attacking the mother and writing that he was of a mind to award full custody to Mr. Thibodeaux. The deceitful and opportunistic Dominic Mastruserio threatened to go to trial where he was confident that with his PAS evaluator Borack, and his old buddy Panioto, he would win custody for his client.

5. Between a rock and a hard place, the mother's then attorney, William Abernethy, told her to sign a "temporary" six month agreement giving the alleged abuser, Louis Thibodeaux, sole custody of the children and allowing for the deprogramming of the children (as if they had been brainwashed into believing they were abused) and an intervention to change or stop the mother's allegations (which they failed to investigate). Once the mother signed the coerced agreement (she was crying), Judges Panioto and Shattuck used it against her to rule again and again that she had basically turned her back on all the previous abuse allegations leveled against Louis Thibodeaux. Temporary became permanent. It was the worst thing that she could have done. William Abernethy, her attorney, failed her and the children. He capitulated to Panioto's pro-abuser court and eventually quit as her attorney with the parting words, "I need to make a living in this town."

6. When the mother attempted to appeal Judge Panioto's decision not to reverse the Borack coerced agreement, Judge Panioto then also refused to supplement the official record with Dr. Michael Borack's PAS reports for the Appeals Court to read and consider. This shocking and blatant attempt to hide material so germane and central to the case served to cheat the mother from justice as the Appeals Court decided that Panioto had given them "no choice" but to affirm him. Panioto protected himself at the expense of the children.

7. Judge Panioto squandered several months fighting off the mother's motion that he recuse himself from the case for reasons of bias. Three hours into the mistrial in February 2004, however, Judge Panioto did step aside but not for the reasons he stated. It had come to light only days earlier that his top aide, Jayne Zuberbuhler, had perjured herself in deposition testimony, and the Judge removed himself before the issue, and his personal knowledge of it, embroiled him. Zuberbuhler's office is down the hall from Panioto's. They're tight. She lied about Borack in deposition, got caught, and Judge Panioto is a witness.

8. Judge Susan Tolbert recused herself because of her familiarity with this website, a public criticism of the Hamilton County Domestic Relations PAS Court. This website is a double edged sword. By exposing the Court's secret PAS world and failure to protect abused children, this website is intimidating and causes unethical people who cannot explain themselves to run. It also creates even more animosity from a morally bankrupt court system that lost its bearings the day Dr. Richard Gardner stepped into Cincinnati to train them.

9. Giving some credit where some credit is due, Judge Ron Panioto did make one attempt to correct his errors. He signed a pretrial court order allowing testimony and evidence that would include all the sexual abuse allegations going back to 1997. Never mind the coerced agreement, bring it all in. Of course that's the right thing.

10. Second trial Judge Judson Shattuck did exactly the opposite. He ignored Judge Panioto's Pretrial Order and refused to bring it all in. Erring on the side of the alleged abuser, Louis Thibodeaux, PAS Judge Shattuck used the Dr. Borack coerced 2nd agreement signed in 2000, which Judge Panioto had refused to reverse, to preclude all testimony and evidence regarding the alleged abuser's sexual molestation of the children. Judge Panioto's decision in 2002, therefore, not to reverse Dr. Borack's incompetent recommendations, ultimately led to a full pardon in 2004 of every sexual abuse allegation leveled against Louis Thibodeaux.

11. Mr. Thibodeaux was let off the hook, was never held accountable for his actions, and to the mother's horror received full custody of his alleged victims. Judge Shattuck had conducted a Sham Trial and rendered a Skyline Chili decision in favor of the alleged abuser without citing any evidence, exhibits, witnesses or trial testimony. That's because his decision cannot be supported by the evidence, exhibits, witnesses or trial testimony.

12. After the trial Mr. Thibodeaux's attorney Dominic Mastruserio was investigated by the state for lying and frauds upon the court. Judge Judson Shattuck was caught stealing money from the state in his billing on the case. Judge Ronald Panioto's real reason for recusal came to light as Ray Shannon goofed by not keeping to the story - the lie, that Panioto had a friend as witness. It was really this website that made him cut and run. Mr. Thibodeaux's second wife Kelly Thibodeaux gave up the facade that they had an All-American family and left him almost immediately after the trial, feigning a marriage until the appeals were exhausted. She left Louis Thibodeaux for two years from October 2005 until the fall of 2007. She told the Thibodeaux children that she would have been fine with the children's real mother gaining custody, and seemingly wasn't too happy that it turned out the way that it did. Adding insult to injury, most likely her name would have been redacted from this website long ago with a simple 50/50 split of visitation.

13. Teresa's children are now left alone 83% of the time with Louis Thibodeaux. Nobody knows how safe they are because he won't take them to a therapist, and the court has stopped the mother from doing so. The court has no idea whether Mr. Thibodeaux is a child molester or not? We do know that the children are desperately lonely and ache for their mother and her extended family. By incompetence, fraud and deceit, Misters Mastruserio, Borack, Panioto & Shattuck have collectively ruined their childhoods.

Before he died, Shattuck was caught profiting from the Thibodeaux case -

grossly over-billing the State of Ohio and Hamilton County.

Never take crap from a pro-pedophile anybody. Judge Judson Shattuck Jr. spent the final year of his life in one helluva pickle.

Before his surprise death during back surgery on December 4, 2007, the mother's brother had filed a licensing board complaint against Judge Shattuck and pummeled him for his gross misconduct. He was unable to answer the most serious allegations, thus lending credence to the charges that he was nothing more than a common thief dressed in judicial robes. He died under suspicion, no doubt anticipating that felony charges would be filed against him. Indeed, private investigators were halfway through their investigation of him when he suddenly passed away.

Shattuck's Monthly Compensation Reports, since 2003, were littered with fabrications costing the state of Ohio untold thousands of dollars. Here's a sampling ...

Visiting Judge Judson Shattuck Jr.
Stuffed The Turkey & His Pockets
On Thanksgiving Day 2004

On Thanksgiving Day, November 25, 2004, while most people watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and NFL Football or otherwise enjoyed their families, Judge Judson L. Shattuck Jr claimed on his Ohio Monthly Compensation Report that he had worked a full day (eight hours) on the Thibodeaux case. He stated that he was "writing".

But that was impossible and a lie.

There was absolutely nothing to write about. Zip. Zero. Zilch.

That's because Judge Judson Shattuck had entered his final Decision in the Thibodeaux case three days prior on November 22, 2004. There was simply nothing left for him to write about. The knucklehead made it up. Judge Judson Shattuck Jr. fabricated his compensation report which he signed. Shattuck stole $440.16 from Ohio taxpayers and has been reported to the state to be disciplined - hopefully disbarred.

Almost every individual, from PAS attorneys to PAS psychologists to PAS judges, who have stuck their necks out for Mr. Thibodeaux have eventually paid a heavy price for doing so. Mr. Shattuck joins a long list of unethical court officials who are stunned when they are caught - and as cousin Gail says "sin always reveals itself" - so they always get caught. This is the form (his handwriting) that the unethical Judson Shattuck Jr. used to fabricate his compensation:

See the highlighted line? You're watching a judge lie on his expenses.

And there's plenty more where that came from. Go to Judge Judson Shattuck Jr. Stuffs His Pockets & Gets Caught

Get a load of this though ...

Court Administrator Ray Shannon Reveals That Judge Ron Panioto Lied In Court Regarding His Reason For Recusal

The Appointment Request letter from Hamilton County Court Administrator Ray Shannon to Justice Moyer is very revealing. It should have come from Judge Panioto himself and not Mr. Shannon, though Mr. Shannon was careful to say Judge Panioto had authorized it. If Judge Panioto is to be believed that he recused himself because a friend was a witness in the Thibodeaux case, all Mr. Shannon needed to write was simply that.

But Mr. Shannon doesn't mention anything at all about a Panioto friend. He blames the mother and her website (this one) for Panioto's recusal. So Shannon-Panioto's Appointment Request letter to Chief Justice Thomas Moyer is false on it's face. Either the letter is false or Judge Panioto's stated reason in court is false. Which was it? The website or the friend witness?

The answer of course, is that the letter is correct, it was the website. Therefore Judge Panioto lied in court. Is anybody surprised?

Footnote: Ohio State Board investigator Carol Costa fabricated her report, ignoring entirely the main allegations, falsely pretending that they were never written and clearing the unethical Shattuck. That was a foolish thing for her to do. Shortly after, Shattuck died. Soon Carol Costa will need to explain how Shattuck explained his thievery, and why that explanation didn't make its way into her false report? The lies, dear folks, stretch all the way to Columbus, who are supposed to be the ones catching them. That kind of ethical standard starts at the top.

Dr. Richard Gardner

Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS)

Debunked

Dr. Richard Gardner, M.D.
Born On April 28, 1931
Committed Suicide May 25, 2003

"CAUSE OF DEATH: Incised wounds of chest and neck."

Allow us to disabuse the pro-abusers. Dr. Richard Gardner's son told the New York Times that his father committed suicide. Contrary to assertions made by the father's rights movement, Richard Gardner most certainly did not die "peacefully in his sleep". It was far uglier than that.

Read now about this twistedly pathetic man, his ridiculous PAS theory, and the untold damage that he has done.

In Gardner's Own Words

Dr. Richard Gardner:
"Sex Abuse Hysteria:
Salem Witch Trials Revisited''

''What I am against is the excessively moralistic and punitive reaction that many members of our society have toward pedophiles ... (going) far beyond what I consider to be the gravity of the crime.''

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:
In his 1992 book, ''True and False Accusations of Child Sex Abuse,'' Gardner writes that pedophilia -- adults having sexual relations with children -- ''is a widespread and accepted practice among literally billions of people.''

Richard Gardner says,
''all of us have some pedophilia within us.''

Insight Magazine, April 1999
"Has Psychiatry Gone Psycho?"

By Kelly Patricia O'Meara

According to the developer of the theory, Richard A. Gardner, a clinical professor of child psychiatry, PAS is "a disorder of children, arising almost exclusively in child-custody disputes, in which one parent (usually the mother) programs the child to hate the other parent (usually the father)."

. . . . If a child demonstrates negative feelings toward the father, Gardner's PAS puts the blame on the mother and explains that the confusion is best remedied by increasing the child's time with the father.

When a child has been sexually abused and feels guilt about it, Gardner suggests, the child may be helped to appreciate that "sexual encounters between an adult and a child are not universally considered to be reprehensible acts.

The child might be told about other societies in which such behavior was and is considered normal."

If sexual urges continue after the abuse ends, Gardner suggests such children be encouraged to masturbate.

Gardner suggests that the molesting-father's behavior should be understood. The father "has to be helped to appreciate that, even today, [pedophilia] is a widespread and accepted practice among literally billions of people" and "he [the father] has had a certain amount of bad luck with regard to the place and time he was born with regard to social attitudes toward pedophilia."

 

Gardner, Richard A.,

Child Custody Litigation (1986) p.93

"At the present time, the sexually abused child is generally considered to be the victim," though the child may initiate sexual encounters by 'seducing' the adult."

Gardner, Richard A.,

True and False Accusations of Child Sex Abuse (1992)

"It is of interest that of all the ancient peoples it may very well be that the Jews were the only ones who were punitive toward pedophiles."
Ibid. pp.46-47

Many child advocates are "charlatans, and/or psychopaths, and/or incompetents."
Ibid. p.526

"It is _extremely_ important for therapists to appreciate that the child who has been genuinely abused may _not_ need psychotherapeutic intervention."
Ibid. p.535

"If the mother has reacted to the abuse in a hysterical fashion, or used it as an excuse for a campaign of denigration of the father, then the therapist does well to try and 'sober her up'... Her hysterics... will contribute to the child's feeling that a heinous crime has been committed and will thereby lessen the likelihood of any kind of rapproachment with the father.

One has to do everything possible to help her put the 'crime' in proper perspective. She has to be helped to appreciate that in most societies in the history of the world, such behavior was ubiquitous, and this is still the case."
Ibid. p.584-585

"Of relevance here is the belief by many of these therapists that a sexual encounter between an adult and a child -- no matter how short, no matter how tender, loving, and non-painful -- automatically and predictably _must_ be psychologically traumatic to the child... The determinant as to whether the experience will be traumatic is the social attitude toward these encounters."
Ibid. pp.670-71

"I believe it is reasonable to say that at this time there are millions of people in the United States who are either directly accusing or supporting false sex-abuse accusations and/or are reacting in an extremely exaggerated fashion to situations in which _bona fide_ sex abuse has occurred."
Ibid. p.688

Richard Gardner in

''Sex Abuse Hysteria''

Judges ''may have repressed pedophilic impulses over which there is suppression, repression, and guilt. Inquiry into the details of the case provides voyeuristic and vicarious gratifications."

¬Ý

Unscientific Garbage¬Ý

University of Washington Professor
John Conte has described Gardner's "Sex Abuse Legitimacy Scale" as

"probably the most unscientific piece of garbage I've seen in the field in all my time. To base social policy on something as flimsy as this is exceedingly dangerous."

According to "Violence In The Family," a 1996 report of the American Psychological Association Presidential Task Force on Violence And the Family:

The task force found that court decisions awarding an allegedly abusive father custody of his children "... may improperly rely on inaccurate and unsupported theories such as The Parental Alienation Syndrome."

Margaret Hagen, a Boston University professor of psychology and author of Whores of the Court, says

"parental alienation is just another bogus psychological theory infecting the nation's legal system."

Carol S. Bruch, Professor of Law and Chair,
Doctoral Programme in Human Developement,
University of California, Davis
Parental Alienation Syndrome:
Junk Science in Child Custody Determinations

"Possibly as a consequence of these errors and his 'tail-of-the-elephant' view, Gardner vastly overstates the frequency of cases in which children and custodial parents manufacture false allegations or collude to destroy the parent-child relationship.

Taken together, these assertions have the practical effect of impugning all abuse allegations, allegations that Gardner asserts are usually false in the divorce context.

Here, too, Gardner cites no evidence in support of his personal view, and the relevant literature reports the contrary, that such allegations are usually well-founded."

According to John E. B. Myers in his article,
"What Is Parental Alienation Syndrome
And Why Is It So Often Used Against Mothers?"

"Dr. Gardner's Parental Alienation Syndrome has not, to my knowledge, been subjected to empirical study, research, or testing. Nor to my knowledge has the syndrome been published in peer reviewed medical or scientific journals."

The American Prosecutors Research Institute in Virginia

"that Gardner's research, including PAS, has not been peer-reviewed or officially recognized by the AMA and the APA. Gardner has been able to get around the peer review process by publishing his own works. Creative Therapeutics, which published "Parental Alienation Syndrome", is Gardner's own publishing company."

¬Ý

Moneymaker

"When a fellow says it hain't the money but the principle o' the thing, it's th' money."
Oscar Wilde, 1854-1900

from New Times LA Edition
Thursday March 4, 1999
The Scarlet Letter

Since coming up with his theory, Gardner has begun self-publishing his work in a series of books, training family court evaluators and judges around the country, and testifying as an expert witness in custody cases for $500 an hour, almost exclusively for fathers.

The color of Parental Alienation Syndrome is green.

PAS is a huge moneymaker for the unethical psychologists and evaluators who diagnose it. Word travels fast among lawyers. If you are the local PASguy, every jackass attorney will know it. You will be invited into every abuse case within 100 miles. Do not wreck your reputation - never disappoint - keep those PAS reports coming and the money will follow.

cha-ching

Remember - all that a psychologist need do, is make recommendations that ensure his continued involvement.

A $5,000 case can easily become a $10,000 case - or more!

Diagnose a case of PAS just once a month and presto! - that's annually an extra $60,000 - or more!

The Oscar for the best moneymaker theory in child custody evaluations goes to ...

 

Parental Alienation
Syndrome

Attack The Mother

¬Ý

According to John E. B. Myers in his article,
"What Is Parental Alienation Syndrome And Why Is It So Often Used Against Mothers?"

"If you are a woman and you allege child sexual abuse, expect to be attacked with Richard Gardner's Parental Alienation Syndrome. Gardner's writing is popular among attorney's who represent men accused of abuse, and among some mental health professionals."

Trish Wilson
How "Parental Alienation Syndrome" is Used Against Mothers And Children Who Allege Child Sexual Abuse

PAS is very popular amongst members of the father's rights movement as well as men who have been charged with both child abuse and domestic violence.

Fathers' rights groups equate "lack of substantiation" with "lying."

If she alleged abuse, she could be slapped with "Parental Alienation Syndrome" and lose custody of her children -- which ultimately was the final outcome. If she ignored the abuse, she was told by a crisis intervention counselor that she could be prosecuted for failure to protect.
Damned if you do. Damned if you don't.

Judith Reisman, president of the Institute for Media Education and author of Kinsey, Crimes and Consequences, has another view.

"Anyone who thinks and says that incest can be avoided if the mother has better sex with the father may clinically be defined as a psychopath and needs help." She adds that "buying a vibrator is not going to make a happy home. Obviously he has his own demons to deal with."

Robin Yeamans, California attorney

"Once a mother is called an alienator, police are informed, social workers are informed, and everything she says from then on counts for nothing."Yeamans, who knows dozens of women who have lost their children in alienation cases, adds, "This is the new scarlet letter."

 

PAS Made Him Do It

¬Ýfrom New Times LA Edition
Thursday March 4, 1999
The Scarlet Letter
In a 1988 custody case in Maryland, Gardner testified that physicist Marc Friedlander should receive temporary custody of his two sons because his wife, Zitta, also a physicist, was aparental alienator who had interfered with her husband's visitation rights. While the custody battle was unfolding, Friedlander shot his wife 13 times as she walked to her car after work. During Friedlander's murder trial, Gardner testified that Zitta Friedlander's alienating behavior had made her husband psychotic. The jury didn't buy Gardner's temporary insanity argument, though, and Friedlander was found guilty of first-degree murder.

 

Dr. Richard Gardner in New Jersey

Dr. Richard Gardner, seen here in February 1999 at age 67, authored the money making PAS theory that made him a very rich man. Gardner committed suicide on May 25, 2003, plunging a seven inch butcher knife into his neck and heart. Gardner testified mostly for men, charging $500 per hour, routinely recommending custody to abusers, deprogramming children and threat therapy for mothers. Gardner was against "the excessively moralistic and punitive reaction that many members of our society have toward pedophiles".

 

"Parental Alienation Syndrome
and Parental Alienation:

Getting it Wrong
in Child Custody Cases"

by Carol S. Bruch
Professor of Law and Chair,
Doctoral Programme in Human Developement,
University of California, Davis

¬Ý

"Although Dr. Gardner sometimes states that his analysis does not apply to cases of actual abuse, the focus of his attention is directed at discerning whether the beloved parent and child are lying, not whether the target parent is untruthful or has behaved in a way that might explain the child's aversion."
Bruch (p. 528-529)

"Two examples are his efforts to distinguish true from false allegations and his blanket advice to judges that they should refrain from taking abuse allegations seriously, even when supported by a therapist who has seen the child."
Bruch (p. 529, footnote 6)

"First, Gardner confounds a child's developmentally related reaction to divorce and high parental conflict (including violence) with psychosis."
Bruch (page 530)

"Worse yet, if therapists agree that danger exists, Gardner asserts that they are almost always man-hating women who have entered into a folie-ˆÝ-trois with the complaining child and concerned parent."
Bruch (p. 532)

"In sum, children's reluctance or refusal to visit noncustodial parents can probably be better explained without resorting to Gardner's theory. Studies that followed families over several years, for example, report that visits may cease or be resisted when a variety of reasons cause custodial parents and children to be angry or uncomfortable with the other parent."
Bruch (p. 534)

"First, Gardner is broadly (but mistakenly) believed to be a full professor at a prestigious university."
Bruch (p. 534-535)

"Because this aura of expertise accompanies his work, few suspect that it is mostly self-published."
Bruch (page 535)

". . . receives referrals from the websites of fathers' organizations, and provides packaged continuing education courses for professionals."
Bruch (p. 535-536)

"Finally, he often inaccurately represents or suggests that PAS is consistent with or endorsed by the accepted work of others."
Bruch (p. 536)

"...whenever child sexual abuse allegations or disrupted visitation patterns arise in the United States, one must now be prepared to confront a claim asserting that PAS is at work, not abuse or other difficulties."
Bruch (page 537)

"Following considerable scientific criticism, Gardner withdrew the test he had constructed to determine whether sexual abuse had taken place."
Bruch (p. 539)

Richard Gardner's Favorite

JUDGES

Richard Gardner penned a response to Carol S. Bruch's study of him and his ridiculous, debunked PAS theory. Gardner claimed that there are 66 PAS judges in the United States. This is hard to verify because Gardner does not name the moron 66.

 

Here are the final 2 paragraphs of
Gardner's response to Bruch from:

Family Law Quarterly 35(3):527-552, 2001

Comments on Carol S. Bruch's Article
"Parental Alienation Syndrome and Parental Alienation:
Getting it Wrong in Child Custody Cases"

Richard A. Gardner, M.D.:

¬Ý"There are many other criticisms I have of the Bruch article, which is not the disinterested, comprehensive survey of the material available onPAS that it represents itself to be. My final conclusion is that it is not I who am biased and misrepresenting the material; it is clearly Bruck herself.

Last, I believe that all of Bruck's attempts to discredit and deny PAS will prove futile, her obvious great labors toward that goal notwithstanding.PAS exists, and corroboration of that is the 66 judges who have cited it, and the over 150 authors who have written about it."

Geographic PAS Warning

If you are a protective parent or abused child living in any of the following American states, Canadian provinces or five other countries, you may have to contend with a twisted legal system infected with the debunked PAS theory. Over the past two decades, Parental Alienation Syndrome has had legal success to varying degrees in the following regions:

Lawyers everywhere know of the debunked PAS theory and many attempt to use it in defense of accused clients. Some lawyers shamelessly operate under a "whatever it takes" motto. And of course all it takes is one whacked judge for your region to make the list.

If you are one of the judges who has accepted PAS into your courtroom, then you have allowed a theory concocted by a man so mentally unbalanced that he would later commit suicide by thrusting a butcher's knife into his heart and who once also wrote,

''What I am against is the excessively moralistic and punitive reaction that many members of our society have toward pedophiles ... (going) far beyond what I consider to be the gravity of the crime.''

A PAS Game

Sweet Letters & Sour Motives

Imagine that someone steals your car?

And then the thief writes you a very nice letter offering to give you a lift in your stolen car?

The thief just wants to be friends. That would be incredible, right?

When you decline and say you just want your goddamn car back, the thief criticizes you for not being very nice and calls you rude.

Indeed, the thief shows others copies of his letters to prove how nice he has been to you. And perhaps your impolite responses.

This is like a PAS game.

Abusers play this game very well.

Instead of a car, the Abuser steals a child's innocence and scars him for life. And then expects the accusing parent to be a nice, civil and cooperative co-parent.

Any accusing parent stung by PAS theory can tell you all about "the abuser's letters".

So many Abusers do this, that it is hard to imagine that they have not been advised to do so. The purpose of the letters are to make the accusing parent appear uncooperative - and in Dr. Richard Gardner's PAS world, the uncooperative parent is to be punished.

The Abuser is not really writing to the accusing parent, but rather, for the benefit of a PAS Judge or evaluator.

The Abuser has almost no expectation that the accusing parent will receive the letters well. The Abuser knows that the accusing parent regards him as sick and wrong.

The Abuser hopes to create a mistake in the accusing parent's response, or non-response, or to simply show the letters one day to a PAS Judge or evaluator. The Abuser hopes with the letters to box in the accusing parent.

If the accusing parent accidentally extends to the Abuser a courtesy that is too generous, then it undermines the allegations of abuse. If the accusing parent isn't cooperative at all, then according to Gardner, that parent cannot be a reliable co-parent and custody therefore should go to the Abuser.

It's so very easy to prove that the accusing parent, angry about the abuse of their child, isn't particularly fond of the parent they believe to have committed that abuse. While right thinking people (and right thinking judges) can easily understand that and believe it to be only natural, PAS Judges and evaluators welcome the abuser's letters. In their PAS eyes, it is proof of recalcitrance.

Welcome to the PAS letters game.Can I give you a lift?

Richard Overdoses

While The Evil Dr. Gardner ...

Uses A Butcher's Knife

CincinnatiPAS.com was the first website to report the suicide of the pro-pedophillic Dr. Richard Gardner, reporting the event seven days before the NY Times.

The father's rights movement, true to their disinformation habit, comicly ignore the facts regarding their hero's gory death for the simple reason that it makes Richard Gardner appear mentally unbalanced, which of course he was.

Gardner's misguided supporters are also loathe to explain his many pro-pedophillic opinions (see above), glossing over them. The parental alienationists pretend Gardner simply died in his sleep just as they pretend he was not pro-pedophillic.

Like Gardner's debunked PAS theory, these people are out to lunch. Their sappy tributes to a fallen pro-pedophillic comrade would be funny were it not that some folks actually take these people seriously.

What a scene that must have been?

Three stabs to the neck.
- That's gotta hurt!

Four stabs to the heart & chest.
- Ouch!

Can you imagine Richard Gardner stabbing himself in such a horrific way? Blood all over the place? It would be like Norman Bates slashing himself. You can hear the Psycho music too.

Internally conflicted and mentally unstable to the last, this web site wonders whether Richard took the overdose - while the evil Dr. Gardner preferred a butcher's knife?

Richard had the right idea, a painless forever snooze.

But what drove the evil Dr. Gardner to choose for himself such a gory, bloody and violent death?

Isn't that kind of ... crazy?

Richard Gardner, 72, Dies;
Cast Doubt on Abuse Claims

By STUART LAVIETES

"Dr. Richard A. Gardner, a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who developed a theory about parental alienation syndrome, which he said could lead children in high-conflict custody cases to falsely accuse a parent of abuse, died on May 25 at his home in Tenafly, N.J. He was 72.

The cause was suicide, said Dr. Gardner's son, Andrew, who said his father had been distraught over the advancing symptoms of reflex sympathetic dystrophy, a painful neurological syndrome.

Dr. Gardner, who testified in more than 400 child custody cases, maintained that children who suffered from parental alienation syndrome had been indoctrinated by a vindictive parent and obsessively denigrated the other parent without cause.

In severe cases, he recommended that courts remove children from the homes of the alienating parents and place them in the custody of the parents accused of abuse.

His theory has provoked vehement opposition from some mental health professionals, child abuse experts and lawyers. Critics argue that it lacks a scientific basis, noting that the American Psychiatric Association and the American Medical Association have not recognized it as a syndrome.

They also say that the theory is biased against women, as allegations of abuse are usually directed at fathers, and that it is used as a weapon by lawyers seeking to undermine a mother's credibility in court." ...

... "His marriage to Lee Gardner ended in divorce. In addition to his son, of Cherry Hill, N.J., he is survived by two daughters, Nancy Gardner Rubin of Potomac, Md., and Julie Gardner Mandelcorn, of Newton, Mass.; his mother, Amelia Gardner of Manhattan; eight grandchildren; and his partner, Natalie Weiss.

Correction: June 14, 2003, Saturday An obituary on Monday about Dr. Richard A. Gardner, a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, misstated his position at Columbia University. He was a clinical professor of psychiatry in the division of child and adolescent psychiatry -- an unpaid volunteer -- not a professor of child psychiatry."

A comment about Dr. Richard Gardner's suicide released by the last man to cross examine him, attorney Richard Ducote:

¬Ý¬ÝJune 1, 2003

"Parental Alienation Syndrome is a bogus, pro-pedophillic fraud concocted by Richard Gardner. I was the last attorney to cross examine Gardner. In Paterson, NJ, he admitted that he has not spoken to the Dean of Columbia's medical school for over 15 years, and has not had hospital admitting privileges for over 25 years.

He has not been court appointed to do anything for decades.

The only two appellate courts in the country who have considered the question of whether PAS meets the Frye test, i.e., whether it is generally accepted in the scientific community, said it does not. As Dr. Paul Fink, former president of the American Psychiatric Association has stated, Dr. Gardner and PAS should be only a "pathetic footnote" in psychiatric history. Gardner and his bogus theory have done untold damage to sexually and physically abused children and their protective parents. PAS has been rejected by every reputable organization considering it.

In a Florida case in which I was recently involved, when the judge insisted on a Frye hearing, Gardner simply did not show up. Perhaps because he finally realized that the entire nation was on to his scam, he committed suicide on May 25. Let's pray that his ridiculous, dangerous PAS foolishness died with him."

Internally conflicted and mentally unstable to the last, this website wonders whether Richard took the overdose -

while the evil Dr. Gardner preferred a butcher's knife?

Did Richard Gardner Also Cause 16 year old Nathan Grieco's Suicide?

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, in performing their civic duty to inform and enlighten, ran a two part investigative story on a tragic custody war in their city in which Dr. Richard Gardner became personally involved as an expert witness.

Dr. Gardner interviewed the allegedly abusive father but did not interview the mother nor the three boys at the center of the custody dispute. Nevertheless, Gardner diagnosed "a classical case of PAS" based upon his conversations with his paying client. He called the mother and her three sons "sadistic" and recommended that they be "coerced" (he actually used that word) into making the boys visit their father.

Gardner recommended to the Pittsburgh judge something he called "Threat Therapy", in which the mother should be jailed if the boys did not visit their physically and mentally abusive father. In regard to accusing mothers, Gardner believed that therapists do well to "sober" them up. Otherwise, the children might think that a "heinous crime" has been committed.

Despite its' questionable constitutionality, the Pittsburgh judge went along with Gardner's forced visit "threat therapy" recommendation and what's more, the mother was ordered to deliver the boys in a positive frame of mind or be held for sanctions. The oldest boy, 16 year old Nathan Grieco soon after suffered a nervous breakdown, was hospitalized and eventually committed suicide.

Nathan's mother went public 2 weeks after his death, blaming Dr. Richard Gardner and Pittsburgh Judge John J. Driscoll. Her story created a national outcry.
