Media Repeatedly Fails to Identify Judge in Cole Frazier Murder.

In spite of a flurry of stories in both print and television reports, not a single editor or producer identified the judge who signed the order which resulted in the police taking Cole Frazier from his mother, Candice Dempsey and handing the toddler over to his father, Timothy Frazier, who promptly killed Cole and himself.

Journalism anyone?

The signing judge was Judge John David, "Jack" Seay. Judge Seay can be found on KillerJudges.com and case info at FamilyLawCourts.com

The question of Why the fourth estate is depriving voters of critical information has not yet been answered.

AB 612 pulled. No Vote means victims of parental alienation win. Sort of.

Jim Beall's ill-conceived AB 612 wasn't voted on by the Senate Judicial Committe yesterday, meaning therapists mercifully, now have less of a chance to muddy the waters around parental alienation.

The best example of parental alienation remains:

1. Patty Hearst: kidnapped; then brainwashed to rob banks
2. Elizabeth Smart: kidnapped; when rescued, denied who she was.
3. Sean Hornbeck: kidnapped; when rescued, not keen to see his parents, initially.

Parental alienation remains a physical act of one parent first isolating a child from the other parent or family, and then brainwashing them against the family. This occurs often in family court. The problem is the dogged attachment to the long dead Richard Gardner who testified for the defense in pedophile cases.

This clearly explains why mother-victims of parental alienation syndrome, although victimized - continue to claim it doesn't exist and not recognized by diagnosticians in mental health.

The response to that is: Neither do mental health officials weigh-in on gun shot wounds, another physical act; although it's highly likely just as in parental alienation, the person committing the act has emotional problems.

California's chief judge, Ronald George created the Elkins Task Force to address the state's problematic Family Court, including in this area. Supposedly.

Problem is those in charge of the Elkins Task Force, after inviting the public to be a part of it, refused to allow any public members. Expect more of the same.

See Elkinstaskforce.org -

In particular, San Diego, which operates much like a third world country. When San Diego judges go to prison for bribery...it's in p-a-i-r-s.

Deborah Rowe - the ultimate alienated parent?

Seems to us the ultimate alienated parent in the United States is Deborah Rowe, former wife of Michael Jackson.

Also seems to us, that although people have worked to educate the legislature and media about parental alienation, including Parental Alienation Awareness Day, there's a long way to go.

This includes members of the California State Legislature. We remember the day Amber Alerts were instituted, a California State Senator appeared on NBC Nightly News and said parents should be excluded from Amber Alerts.

We are unsure why California legislators don't quite get it, but currently the Senate Judiciary Committee a Bill 612, sponsored by Jim Beall, which would eliminate the civil rights of a parent who were alienated from their chidren, to sue.

We do not understand this as the Supreme Court in other states, have been making custody rulings which include recognizing parental alienation, for years.

Our feeling is legislators were influenced by lobbyists who are unclear that parental alienation is an action, not a mental problem. Lobbyists have deliberately mis-characterized parental alienation, with cozy names as "protective parents" or the New York based, Stop Family Violence. This worries us tremendously as we do not understand why any member of the legislator would deprive parents who were deliberately alienated from their children, the civil right to sue.

We encourage all to write to Judiciary committee and ask they kill this bill. We also encourage media to investigate parental alienation both as a litigation producing opportunity for various therapists, and judges who do not readily address the matter.

The Senate Judiciary Committee includes:

Chairman
Ellen Corbett or call her at: (916) 651-4010


Co-Chair:
Tom Harmon or call him at: (916) 651-4035. Ask for Tiffany Conklin

You may call the others:

Mark Leno: 916-651-4003 ask for Barry
Dean Florez: 916-651-4016 ask for Che Salinas
Mimi Walters: 916-651-4033 Garth is on vacation, ask for for Gina Zari
