Ambrose Motions CT Family Court to Stop Frank Report Writing About Him and Children

Chris Ambrose

Karen Riordan and Chris Ambrose met in court on January 30, February 1, and February 3, on a motion Ambrose made to get a protective order against Riordan.

They divorced a year ago.

Karen Riordan and Chris Ambrose

Ambrose wants to ensure Riordan does not see her children – not at home or school. And he wants to stop the Frank Report from publishing stories about him or their three children.

CT Superior Court Judge Eddie Rodriguez heard from both parties during two half-day and one full-day sessions.

The parties will meet again before Judge Rodriquez on March 1 for a final session on what has been almost a mini-trial.

Both parties appeared without attorneys, though Ambrose is an attorney. He has not practiced law in more than a decade.

Ambrose was also a TV screenwriter specializing in legal and crime-based drama for CBS and Fox. His first show in 2002 was, ironically, Family Law, a show about an upscale law firm specializing in clients with high-conflict divorce and custody cases, and whose theme song was Edwin Starr’s “War.” 

Ambrose’s last show was Instinct, which ended his career with an episode he was credited for writing, “Secrets and Lies.”

Instincts, Secrets and Lies had a lot of both, but they did not remain a secret. Chris Ambrose stole the story from another TV show.

The episode aired on April 1, 2018, and had the same storyline as “The Plain in the Prodigy” on the TV show Bones, which aired nine years earlier.

The story of Instinct plagiarizing from Bones was widely publicized, including in CBS-owned TV Guide, which had to out its TV show reporting The Video Evidence That Instinct Ripped Off Bones Is Damning.

Plagiarism, in and among Hollywood writers, is a cardinal sin. No producer can ever trust the man who plagiarized. 

This was not borrowing a line or two from Shakespeare or borrowing from an unformed nucleus of a story plot. This was wholesale theft of another’s work and business fraud. Ambrose deceived the producers who paid him to write an original episode. Instead, he stole the work of another writer.

Ambrose’s fate is the same as everyone who goes to Tinsel Town and tries to profit from the creative work of others and call it their own. His pariah status in Hollywood was immediate, bringing Ambrose back to CT, unemployed, to his wife and children, from whom he had spent most of their young lives away.

One day in 2018, Chris Ambrose came home after losing his career in Hollywood.

Riordan was a stay-at-home mother, formerly a teacher, before the high-earning Ambrose urged her to quit her $90,000 per year teaching job, the year after she was awarded Distinguished Teacher of the Year in the Greenwich School District – in 2003 – so that she could accompany him to Hollywood.

There is an irony in that Ambrose arranged for the end of both his and his wife’s careers; hers with the highest honors as a ground-breaking and dedicated special education teacher recognized as among the best in an affluent school district with 700 teachers, and his, in disgrace, a man who steals the words of others.

The Hearings

The protective order hearings before Judge Rodriguez were ostensibly about the children’s privacy, and much of it focused on how stories published in the Frank Report harmed them.

The children were not heard in these hearings, though two of them are 16. Their spokesperson was Ambrose.

Riordan asked the judge to allow the children to come to court so they could tell their story – at least the two 16-year-olds. Ambrose objected. The judge ruled against it.

Ambrose mentioned the Frank Report 22 times in his motion for a protective order. During three days of hearings, he referred to the Frank Report perhaps a hundred times. 

In addition to the harm Ambrose says his children experience from stories in the Frank Report, he admitted under oath that the Frank Report stories made him suicidal.

Rodriguez’s Earlier Role in the Case

Judge Eddie Rodriguez Jr.

Three and a half years earlier, in August 2019, Judge Rodriguez first heard the couple’s divorce and custody case. He awarded primary custody to the mother and ample visitation to the father.

He also ordered Ambrose to provide a complete financial statement to determine where the couples’ estimated $2 million plus in assets were.

Background 

On July 19, 2019, Ambrose first brought an action for the dissolution of marriage against Riordan, his wife of 16 years. The three children were then 13, 13, and nine.

Riordan raised them from infancy and was their “primary attachment figure.”

A switch in judges switched custody

For reasons unclear, and before Ambrose was required to provide a financial affidavit, a new judge was assigned to the case, Judge Jane Grossman.

The court assigned an attorney, Jocelyn Hurwitz, as guardian ad litem [GAL] to represent the children. GAL Hurwitz recommended a custody evaluation to determine the children’s best interests.

GAL Jocelyn Hurwitz billed about $200,000 for her time at $400 per hour.

A custody evaluation report prepared by Jessica Biren Caverly, a psychologist, concluded that the father should have sole custody of the children. In addition, for at least 90 days, they should have no contact by phone or in person with their mother.

Caverly concluded Riordan alienated the children from their recently returned home from Hollywood, now an unemployed father.

Caverly’s report, which she did not share with Riordan, was the basis of an emergency ex parte motion made by the GAL before Judge Grossman.

Both the GAL and Custody Evaluator Caverly recommended the children be removed from their home with their mother, and placed in their father’s home, with sole custody going to Ambrose.

On April 24, 2020, after an emergency hearing, where Riordan was not able to testify or bring witnesses, and based on the custody report of Caverly, her testimony, and the recommendation of the GAL Hurwitz, Judge Grossman decided Riordan alienated the children from their father and ordered them removed from her care.

The children were removed that day from the only home they had ever known and placed with their father. 

Frank Report Involvement 

On October 3, 2021, about a year and a half after Judge Grossman decided to change custody, Frank Report published the first of some 50 stories on the removal of three children from their mother.

The story came to my attention from a man who had experienced a custody flip based on a similar report by Caverly.

To develop my story, I spoke with friends of Riordan, with Riordan, and with her attorney. I tried to talk to Ambrose, but he declined to answer my calls or texts.

I read court filings. I found photographs and important information online, some published on social media by the children.

The children published information about their father including a series of screenshots from his computer or phone that suggested he was gay and might have an interest in Latino boys

As I searched for more information, I found online Caverly’s custody evaluation, the one Riordan had not been allowed to see before she lost custody and contact with her children.

If one took it at face value, it was not flattering to Riordan.

As I studied it, I saw that the evaluator, psychologist Jessica Biren Caverly, decided the mother and the children were lying about Ambrose and that he was credible.

Dr. Jessica Biren-Caverly wrote a custody report, and decided the father, Chris Ambrose, was telling the truth, and that the children and mother were lying.

Caverly documented that she met the children with each of the parents for a few hours, met with the children alone for a few minutes, and met with Ambrose and Riordan for an hour or so. She also administered written tests supposedly designed to identify so-called personality disorders.

I was surprised that, based on such limited contact, she could recommend that the children have no contact with their mother. It was clear from the report that the children did not like their father, were afraid of him, and wanted to live with their mother.

The Caverly report disregarded the children’s desires and ignored the pain children would feel by having their mother removed from their lives.

No matter whether Riordan contributed to the children’s dislike of their father or whether he did it through his behavior, as the children told the custody evaluator, Caverly’s yanking them from a happy and loving home, with their mother, determined the course of their entire future.

False Diagnosis

What was also disturbing was that Caverly wrote in her report, “Ms. Riordan appears to have a significant personality disorder… Ms. Riordan’s testing and interview indicated that she meets criteria for Other Specified Personality Disorder, Mixed Personality Features (F60.89).”

Caverly also wrote Riordan “did not meet full criteria for any specific diagnosis.”

As a matter of law and science, “appearance” is not conclusive. A psychologist doing a custody evaluation is unqualified by law, licensure or training to diagnose mental illness.

Riordan was not her patient.

As I investigated the case further, I obtained the reports of two psychiatrists who can legally diagnose mental illness. Riordan had seen them because of the trauma of this divorce and custody battle. Both physicians said Riordan had no mental illness.

Click to access Dr.-Coffey-Letter-to-Dept-of-Justice.pdf

Unlike Caverly, who spent a few hours with Riordan, not as her health provider, the psychiatrists entered into a doctor-patient relationship with Riordan and spent many hours with her.

Riordan tried to present the reports of her mental health, but Judge Jane Grossman accepted only the opinion of Dr. Caverly. 

It was Kafkaesque.

The most surreal part came when, while reading the transcripts, I learned that Judge Grossman, who is not a physician, psychiatrist, or psychologist, made her own “diagnosis” of Riordan’s mental health.

Judge Jane Grossman

Judge Grossman said:

On April 24 of 2020, the Court received into evidence the psychological report [Caverly] of the parties and the children and heard the testimony of the evaluator [Caverly] who prepared that report…. That evidence revealed that the defendant has a significant personality disorder that impacts her ability to cooperatively work with the plaintiff. … if the defendant went untreated, her response to stress and particularly the stress of this divorce might present itself as a bipolar manic episode; and that continues to remain of paramount concern to this Court.”

Grossman said the Caverly’s report “revealed” Riordan has a “significant personality disorder.” 

But Caverly wrote that Riordan “appears” to have a personality disorder. Changing the word “appears” to “revealed” made it conclusive. 

Judge Grossman took it further. She said, “if the defendant went untreated, her response to stress… might present itself as a bipolar manic episode; and that continues to remain of paramount concern to this Court.”

Judge Grossman decided Riordan had to be treated for mental illness, that there was risk of “a potential bipolar episode,” and that the paramount issue in determining custody was Riordan’s mental illness, which no competent psychiatrist diagnosed.

Judge Grossman’s improper, illegal, and patently wrong diagnosis took three children from their happy home and placed them with their father. 

In so doing, it changed their lives and put the mother at sea and oarless. As Ambrose had done to his writing career and his wife’s teaching career, he ended his wife’s career as a mother after 13 years.

Suddenly, the woman the father insisted be a stay-at-home mother was now a menace to her children – without a shred of competent evidence – based on the sole opinion of one custody evaluator.

I was flabbergasted. And when I found out that Ambrose paid the custody evaluator both for her fee for her report and her testimony in court before Judge Grossman, I decided to dig further.

 Stay tuned for the next in this coverage of Ambrose’s motion for a protective order.

Ambrose is so transparent.

He wants to keep his kids isolated from the mother so the truth of his perversions and abuse remains concealed.

His bs claim of protection is without merit. It’s self-serving and designed to use against Frank Parlato in his federal case.

He’s a weak, cowardly little old man.

Bottom line is the mother should have her custody restored. The court drags out litigation and creates false scenarios to “dirty up” the mother as father plays the prince.

My son is friends with the two older kids. They cannot stand that man. They are now 16 years of age and the court says what exactly? That they don’t have a say in where they live?

The deprivation of rights to these kids- even when 2/3 are now 16, is egregious.

Does Attorney General Tong enable fraud in family courts?
Does Attorney General Tong enable fraud in family courts?
9 months ago

Almost a year ago, on March 18, 2022, Connecticut Attorney General Tong offered his written testimony to the Judiciary Committee in Support of Senate Bill No. 426.

The noble title of SB 426 was, “An Act Concerning False Claims And Other Prohibited Acts”. Chairman Winfield, Ranking Member Kissel, Chairman Stafstrom, Ranking Member Fishbein and “distinguished members of the Judiciary Committee” witnessed what AG Tong stated about his hopes for SB 426.

At some point, Mitchell Newmark of Blank Rome LLP also heard about SB 426. Newmark shared his thoughts about SB 426 in a May 19, 2022 JD Supra article, “If S.B. 426 had passed, companies and high-net-worth individuals would have fled Connecticut. S.B. 426 died in the General Assembly, hopefully not to be resurrected in its current form.”

Newmark also explains what he thought happened, “What happened? The existing FCA in Connecticut is narrow. It is limited to actions with respect to state-administered health and human services programs. S.B. 426 was drafted to simply remove the limiting language, i.e., remove the references to ‘a state-administered health or human services program.’ Removing that limit would have made taxpayers vulnerable to claims under the FCA seeking treble damages plus the costs of investigation and prosecution, which can be brought by the Connecticut Attorney General or a person initiating the action.”

https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/tax-justice-prevails-as-connecticut-1075243/

Maybe Newmark doesn’t know that Health and Human Services has been one of the major founders and instigators of False Claims And Other Prohibited Acts in family courts throughout America.

Also maybe: AG Tong knows ‘the existing FCA is limited to state-administered health and human services programs’ and yet somehow feels the AG’s office should allow crimes, corruption, extortion, racketeering, fraud and all the other prohibited acts in all the HHS-connected family court networks.

More from Newmark: “Removing that limit would have made taxpayers vulnerable to claims under the FCA seeking treble damages plus the costs of investigation and prosecution, which can be brought by the Connecticut Attorney General or a person initiating the action”.

This can’t be.

Connecticut’s attorney general can’t:
1. allow open family court racketeering, fraud and extortion to destroy children and families with HHS funding; and,
2. try to make taxpayers pay “treble damages plus the costs of investigation and prosecution” for every bit of corruption in the state EXCEPT for the blatant and actionable crimes committed in HHS-connected family courts state AGs should have already prosecuted.

If AG Tong thought SB 426 could pass, if his testimony truly reflected his deepest and most sincere intentions, why didn’t he mention the HHS-linked corruption, fraud and racketeering in family courts?

AG Tong’s testimony: “To address these issues, it is clear that we need to expand the Connecticut False Claims Act. The Office of the Attorney General (“Office”) strongly supports this legislation, which seeks to expand the scope of Connecticut’s False Claims Act by removing provisions that limit application of these statutes to state-administered health or human services programs.”

Preparing to testify last year, did AG Tong ever stop to think about the billions, trillions (most likely quadrillions) of false claims and other prohibited acts committed in purposely adversarial, for-profit, taxpayer-funded family court cases in Connecticut for the past forty years?

It seems the AG’s office never investigated the court evaluator in the Dulos case. In one of Jennifer’s last motions to the court through her attorney, she asked the authorities to investigate.

Did any Connecticut AG ever investigate any crimes committed in any family court cases?

AG Tong stated, “Just a few deletions from the text of Conn. Gen. Stat. §§ 4-274 and 4-275 that currently limit this law to health and human services programs would allow my Office to pursue fraud and abuse of tax dollars anywhere in State government. Equally important, these amendments will protect and encourage insiders to blow the whistle when fraud and abuse occurs in any State spending.”

He was supposed to address False Claims and Other Prohibited Acts in health and human services programs. In which specific ways has AG Tong accomplished that goal in state “family courts”?

No, but at least he said, “More than one hundred different agencies, offices, and quasi-public agencies spend tax dollars on behalf of the government of the State of Connecticut. The current Connecticut False Claims Act covers programs at just nine agencies. This leaves billions of tax dollars vulnerable to fraud and abuse in programs administered at all the other State agencies …”

AG Tong went on to mention “items such as moth-eaten blankets, injured cavalry horses, and boxes of sawdust instead of guns.” He noted the significance of Civil War-era contractors and suppliers defrauding the Union Army.

How did AG Tong not draw the parallels to connect the dots between HHS … family court contractors … and crimes committed against Connecticut children, families and all taxpayers for the past forty years?

Without mentioning family courts, he testified about “transportation … jobs … Connecticut’s construction industry … and … not just health and human services contractors.”

“The vast majority of government contractors are responsible, honest and trustworthy. Still, False Claims Act enforcement activity in other states demonstrates there are outliers across every type of industry and business who will try to defraud the government” he said.

“No government program is immune from fraud and abuse … public works projects …” he said.
Maybe AG Tong was saying:

Since each little lie lawyers and vendors tell state family courts, by itself isn’t actionable, all falsehoods and false statements are allowed in state family courts. Taxpayers should first pay for falsehood and fraud in family court cases and then also pay “treble damages plus the costs of investigation and prosecution, which can be brought by the Connecticut Attorney General or a person initiating the action”.

AG Tong should have been honest in his testimony. He should have included in his testimony for each and every distinguished member of the Judiciary Committee to also consider, “All the falsehood and fraud in state family courts for the past forty years isn’t significant. Racketeering, extortion and fraud in family courts are minor technicalities, innocent mistakes, or acts of mere negligence. They are not False Claims Act violations”.

The AG ’s testimony that day could have been an epic speech about how he was working to finally address all the blatant and destructive corruption in Connecticut family courts. Had he done that, he would have been a hero.

Unfortunately, AG Tong might not be a hero in the same way the former AG also wasn’t a hero.

It looks like Connecticut’s AG openly allows False Claims And Other Prohibited Acts in HHS-funded family courts.

What’s going on?

Do all state attorney generals ignore blatant corruption in family courts?
Which state attorney generals do appropriately address false claims and other prohibited acts in family courts?

It would only take about fifty free phone calls to state AG offices to get a general idea of which states are dong what. 🤔

This is a RICO case. They traffic children through family courts for money. They deliver children to their abuser and cut off contact with the healthy parent.

The custody evaluators singular report is used as a weapon by the GAL and abuser – who take it to the police and dcf to undermine the credibility of children and influence the outcome of any investigation.

Are ad hominem attacks all you have to offer? Why not put your ad hominem attacks to good use?

What would you call the public private partnerships in family court contracts that steal from families and children via massive fraud and set-ups which provoke extended conflict, hundreds of billable hours and tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars per simple divorce case?

Ambrose explains to Instinct’s fellow writers:

‘His anonymous posts on line indicate that he’s a malignant narcissist who wants credit for his crimes.
Humiliation— his loss of a job (fired from an instinct April 2018) and loss of his a partner (wife ended marriage counseling and demanded divorce April 2018)- has unleashed his fury.’

Chris is suing the aunt for dropping off Easter baskets. He suing Frank but is unable to identify a single falsehood in any of the articles published.

He’s trying to get an order against his wife for articles that Ambrose created. He wrote a 20+ page lawsuit where for purposes of future damages, he claims he’s depressed and suicidal bc of franks investigation.

If he’s depressed or suicidal it’s because he was exposed by Frank. After paying over a million to court actors to steal the kids and destroy his wife, his Hollywood storyline was thwarted by Frank Parlato.

Ambrose did not manage to be the hero snd the victim as he’d intended. And because he’s a malignant narcissist and pathological liar, there’s no amount of money that will be able to change who he is.

His legal career ended. His writing career ended. He’s only got himself to blame but instead he’ll attempt to get income by suing those who expose the truth.

He won’t win. He never “won” anything honestly in his life. His interview with Harvard dunk that ship- its all he wanted and he was rejected bc of the interview. They saw through him then, as the bones fans saw through him immediately.

There’s plenty more to come. Ambrose is a criminal.

Hope that the lawsuit will be documented and become a template to the public, exposing this legal abuse.
I just wonder though, instead of spending funds and time on this lawsuit, why wouldn’t Chris be reasonable and do what is truly in the best interest of the children and draw up a stipulation that at least agrees to allow their children to have visitation? Even monitored visitation, and a court order that states neither parent should speak badly about one another or the case? Drop all the weapons, let the legacy of this family be one of forgiveness and cooperation for the sake of the children. It really takes a hero to do that. Litigation should be the very last option, especially when children s lives are at stake. Who in their right mind, hands over the fate of their own precious children to strangers in a business called family law? It’s not too late to flip the script and leave the money hungry lawyers and “ experts” in the dust. The children need peace from all the strife. ( probably everyone does) Ambrose should have understood how important it is for children to have a relationship with both parents. He didn’t. Maybe Chris thinks Karen did x, y and z…But it’s not too late. Build a bridge, get over it. Take back all the power that was given to the system. Be rock stars! Think outside the box. Work it out like mature adults and move on with good will and grace.

Without knowing anyone involved, one thing is sure, the Frank Report has stood up for the silenced voice of children, just as he has countless others who are/ were abused and oppressed. These children will know one day that their lives mattered to adults enough to make sacrifices for them. Most children going through these types of ordeals will not have that advantage. Yes, this seems like a lot to go through, but they are going to know that they are worth defending. I truly hope that Chris and Karen will be able to transform this story into a different direction for all parties. THAT would be the most inspiring, cinematic ending…

Chris, take your real power back from the legal parasites. Do some deep soul searching bro, think outside the box, focus on family healing, rather than war. Even if you don’t like each other, you will always be the childrens father, and like it or not, Karen will always be their mother. Let the children be impressed by real leadership. Impress your own soul. Shine out of this. Get out of the swamp. TURN THE PAGE. Create a legacy of real strength. Cooperation, dignity, decency, a good sense of humor and forgiveness. You don’t have to give your power away by insisting you are a victim, if you become a real hero.

I agree. Children need their mother. I’m not trying to cast blame either. No one knows exactly what happened in the past. You only know now. It’s hard to let go of any narrative that we hold on to. We all are guilty of clinging to our pain when we believe we have been wronged. We feel corned by our egos, childhood trauma etc . And everyone is capable of reacting and overreacting to triggers. Everyone.
But thé thing is this :
NOT EVERYONE HAS THE ABILITY and DETERMINATION to transcend into a new story in their life ..because it involves letting go of fear. We all mistakenly cling to our fear like it will protect us from what we believe compromises our desires. When in fact, fear distorts clear thinking and we self sabotage.
The question is, are you everyone, or the exception to the norm? Who do you want to be? This story, like all child alienation stories is loaded with war stories, but only you can decide to turn it into a victory. The thing is, with family? It involves the whole family, not just one person. As an outsider, it seems like the father is burning the whole house down and is surprised that he is in flames. That doesn’t make him evil. It makes him human. Because we mere mortals really do have a hard time looking at ourselves.

But now, why not consider stopping the fire? They say that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results. Calm the noise.

These kids need both parents to be of sound mind. Stop fighting.
Don’t make the mistake of the old “do as I say, not as I do”
If you compromise and find a way to mediate and truly focus on coparenting, both parents with flaws and all, if the goal truly is for children, most people will always agree that children need as much love as possible from as many people as possible.
So maybe stop hating. It’s contagious. It’s like a boomerang too. Try benevolence and tolerance instead. Just try it. If it doesn’t work, you can always get all of your misery refunded.

Let the children have a real chance of a relationship with their mom, and you will only gain the children’s respect.

Kids need fair guidance from their role models. If they only see strife, what do you think they are going to expect from life?

Another thing , I don’t know of any adults who went through this kinda strife that ended up as a long term cheerleader for one parent over the other. Kids need to think about themselves.

You are a family. Even if you are a broken family, you’ll always be connected by your beautiful children. Think long term. Be kind on each other and yourselves.

You okay fellow flawed human being?

What do you think about turning the page and focusing on healing your family?

Everyone was hurt, maybe bad choices were made, okay, now what ?

Instead of being victimized by the system, CHANGE the system by walking out of it, lick your wounds and just hit reset.

Get another reunification visiting situation going ..

What if you and your ex just
rolled up those sleeves and get on with it?

Who cares who is right or wrong in the end ?

We are all here only for a bleep of time. All these lawyers and experts are only going to perpetuate the war. Do you really want it to be this Vietnam thing ?

There’s no need for reunification because the kids want to be with their mother.

The only reason for reunification is when kids have been “alienated”. This whole system is to create problems and titles for court ordered actors to fix the problem and drain the family bank.

Chris knows the kids want to be with their mother. It’s been three years Ambrose and they don’t like you. They want to be away from you.

You had every opportunity to be kind and jovial. It escapes you. You just don’t get it Ambrose.

Such innate talent and you use it to destroy and cause distress in those who’ve been good to you.

“There’s no need for reunification because the kids want to be with their mother.”

But the adults need to know the “reunification” will happen in a safe manner. Karen has behaved extremely destructively and it appears the children have been shielded from this by dad as much as possible. they do not know what their mother has been up to over these years. Reunification needs to be done through former channels so that all the adults concerned will know the kids are safe. I don’t understand why the mother won’t just do what is recommended and show them. “Hey look I’m no threat.” if that is what the truth is. Otherwise, it seems like she has something to hide.

But Chris is the parasite. That’s why he stole $180,000 of his wife’s inheritance.

He’s known her parents since he was born, and they have always been kind and generous to him- even after he deceived Karen into marrying him.

And to show he has zero integrity and no morals, he pockets her mom’s final gift to Karen, and feels no shame.

Chris is a malignant narcissist. He had stolen Karen’s life because he has no soul and no life of his own.

Go find yourself Chris- whoever or whatever that might be, but give your children their life back. Let them live in the world of love and fun and laughter.

They are going to hate you for all you’ve done if they don’t already. Let them live free and happy with the mother and the family they long for.

This was already done, but Karen refused it. She was supposed to have supervised visitation with the kids immediately after the 90-day separation was over. She refused to participate. I believe that now there is something in place where she can get back to visitation etc by attending court-ordered therapy, etc, but it’s my understanding she is also refusing that.

Under the circumstances, if the mother can’t chose the “supervisor” … if only those who took so much money from her and did so much harm to her and her children chose “the supervisor”, “the arbitrators” etc. (see the pattern?) … the mother has the right to record everything from now on.

Why does family court- when you just want a divorce and no interest by dcf/the state, have the right to make you see any therapist at all?

This is legal abuse. It’s a game to drag out litigation regardless of who the therapist is.

Connecticut Attorney General William Tong: “… More than one hundred different agencies, offices, and quasi-public agencies spend tax dollars on behalf of the government of the State of Connecticut. The current Connecticut False Claims Act covers programs at just nine agencies. This leaves billions of tax dollars vulnerable to fraud and abuse …”

Never undergo therapy by a judge-selected therapist in a high profile case like this – it’s too dangerous.

I’m glad Karen has refused the offers of ‘therapy.’

Worst case scenario- if the judge has a friend in the probate division – Karen could wind up with a bogus diagnosis – and could be put into guardianship – just to shut her up and put an end to the bad press relating to this case in family court.

Fraudulent guardianship in America is a moneymaker for lawyers but sometimes it’s used as a kind of legal hit job. Beware.

It’s easy for parents and lawyers to silence good teachers because most school principals and administrators avoid lawsuits. In these cases, really good teachers risk losing their jobs if they speak up about what they know.

I hope the children aren’t discouraged. They probably sometimes feel like the adults who were supposed to protect them let them down. 😔

No matter how many times children speak up and are ignored, they should keep speaking up anyway. When children in these cases keep speaking up, someone always eventually listens. They just need to keep speaking up about what they’ve seen, heard and experienced — and how they feel about what’s happening. That can be exhausting when it seems like no one’s listening.

In most of these kinds of cases, it’s up to the children to stay strong and speak up for themselves when the adults can’t or won’t speak for them. Sometimes it takes years, or months or just a few weeks.

There’s something called “broken record technique” that can be helpful. It takes practice. It’s repeated short sentences used when children simply want to be heard, understood and respected.

They say what the other person wants. Then, when the children are reasonable and right, they simply repeat their own expectations using the same words or almost the same words politely and firmly.

For example:
“I know you want me to __________________, but I need to ________________ so I can ____________________.”

“I understand you are feeling ________________ and that’s a difficult thing, but try to not _____________________ because I need to ________________________________.”

“It seems you want me to _____________________________. I need to ___________________________ because ______________________________.“

Bogus courts in these kinds of cases set the stage for a total mind warp of all involved.

If a bogus judge In a bogus court writes a court opinion that says “A, B and C”, the parents, all the lawyers and all the teachers at the school are supposed to act like “A, B and C” is real life, when it isn’t.

It’s crazy making. Meanwhile the children need to know they’re totally normal, really great kids who will get through this.

All they need to do is: to stay strong and believe in themselves.

If he can lie to his coworkers, his boss Michael Rauch, the actors on instinct, the producers, the set designers and the fans of the show —
It’s easy to see he can and will lie to anyone. And he is bold and convincing about it. Until the public recognized the show he promoted as his original episode for Instinct, was in fact plagiarized, no one suspected a thing.

He’s a conman.

But Ambrose continues to lie and deny any wrongdoing. This is a malignant narcissist.

What’s telling is he blame shifts to the one person who gave him the greatest opportunity when he had a tanked career— Michael Rauch.

Ambrose’s lies:
1 the show was canceled – as the reason he wasn’t in it for the second season. It was not canceled. Ambrose was fired.

2. Michael Rauch was fired for going over budget repeatedly and since he got fired they got all new people in. Totally fabrication. Rauch didn’t go over budget and was never fired. In face he returned as showrunner with all the other writers for the second season. Ambrose was the only one who could not return.

3. Ambrose said his agents stood by him. He was dropped by his agents within two months of his plagiarism and theft of intellectual properties.

If a coward lies about all of this— and takes such risks as to promote a lie about a script— and make a fool of everyone whose job it is to screen and prevent such outcomes, is it any wonder he’s tricked the police, the therapists, the judges and the schools in the exact same way?

“The only ones who should be suing anyone should be the children against these heartless jackals who made knee jerk evaluations that destroyed their lives.“

Which law firms are willing and able to represent child victims in family courts?

Law firms as large and accomplished as Pullman and Comley should petition the Courts. Those kinds of large law firms should ask for compensation for all the abuse children endured in family court cases for the past forty years. Those lawsuits against family court offices should mirror the lawsuits against Catholic Church offices.

When will those lawsuits be filed? The abuse is the same abuse. The gross lack of oversight and accountability is also the same.

For the past forty years, several heartless jackals in family courts have knee-jerked, carefully planned and purposely propagated malicious evaluations and family court decisions. They’ve destroyed tens of thousands of childhoods, both directly and indirectly. They have done so with judicial authority, near-total immunity and no effective oversight. So far.

Many state legislators have known what’s happening now and what has been happening for decades. Only a few legislators have spoken up so far. In 2014, a few legislators connected to a few large law firms shot down most of the efforts made to protect children and families from the blatant fraud, blatant extortion and state-involved racketeering. That last problem was probably the sticking point.

DOJ employees can easily investigate and prosecute blatant fraud and extortion. State offices led the racketeering through CT AFCC, Inc. Gerard Adelman was the “Director”. One of his favored evaluators was Bruce Freedman, CT AFCC, Inc. “Treasurer”. Evaluator and court supervisor Robert Horwitz is the contact on CT AFCC, Inc. 990 forms. Officers of Connecticut AFCC, Inc. told the IRS they were a tax-exempt organization.

According to the IRS:

“Form 990 is the IRS’ primary tool for gathering information about tax-exempt organizations, educating organizations about tax law requirements and promoting compliance. Organizations also use the Form 990 to share information with the public about their programs. Additionally, most states rely on the Form 990 to perform charitable and other regulatory oversight and to satisfy state income tax filing requirements for organizations claiming exemption from state income tax.”

This legislative session, citizens of the state must demand transparency and legislators must investigate Connecticut AFCC, Inc.’s long history and current influences.

State representatives who have not yet spoken up should at least be willing to endorse amendments to bills requiring formal investigations into long-standing problems in family courts.

State, federal or private offices somewhere must find the data to figure out about how much physical, emotional and financial harm family court employees, officers and private vendors caused in the state for the past forty years. With no objective records of harm done to children and families in family courts, family courts will continue to be an arena and a haven for criminals lying in wait to exploit every parent and child officially added to their case loads.

Hundreds of legislators across America have already spoken up to expose and address corruption in family courts. Good legislators don’t need nudges from lobbyists to do and say what’s right.

In this upcoming legislative session in Connecticut:

Support the legislators who truly represent children and families of the state.
Notice which legislators remain silent.

Watch the legislators from the largest law firms — and those formerly affiliated with CT AFCC, Inc. — speak up against proposed amendments to bills. Witness the disparaging remarks made to silence all who dare to advance ideas such as these:

✅ None of the evaluators should be privately paid for.
✅ There should be a health care system that provides care for children based on the children’s needs, not based on price.
✅ It should be completely equal for all children.

Will Representative Steve Stafstrom from Pullman and Comley and Steve from St. Ann’s parish endorse a bill in which victimized children in family court cases can be compensated in the same way victimized children in Catholic Churches received compensation?

What would Robert Holzberg and his colleagues at Pullman and Comley do when this effort for justice for all must be honored?

“Maybe these children will become the catalyst for this much needed change.”

There will be many opportunities for much needed change in this legislative session.

Madison is tired of Chris Ambrose
9 months ago

Ambrose is not depressed because of Frank Report. He may not be depressed at all. He is a tactical strategist. He has no real emotions. He is a con artist who can cry on the spot. A master manipulator. He sets his target and then creates a storyline to achieve what he wants– to take for himself and destroy others.

He reads what he needs to prove parental alienation, and then spends a year collecting his allies, checking the boxes, and creating a false narrative to bring to court.

Currently, he’s creating a narrative to prove damages as a result of Frank Parlato’s accurate reporting of fact. Nothing posted is untrue. Chris Ambrose knows this. He is manipulating the state of CT. He is using legal services intended for those without legal skills who have no money to obtain an attorney. Chris has 1.4million in retirement and much more. Chris has his JD from NYU. Chris uses the CT legal aid– taking help from those in need– to manipulate the state. To get the state on his side to bring his bogus lawsuit against Frank back into CT, because he knows it has no merit in federal court.

Chris blamed his wife for telling the world he was suicidal and depressed. This is also wrong. Chris documented this in his lawsuit against Frank to demonstrate damages. No doubt he sought help with his tears to secure this diagnosis. He spends all day and night on the computer– reading and writing– to harm others who expose who he is and what he does to those he professes to love. He does not. He is incapable of love.

And here’s the kicker– Chris Ambrose has been diagnosed with depression before– more than once. He was diagnosed in 2019-2020 and medicated for it.

He has shared this information with so many of us to portray himself as the victim. He is always the victim.

He cries about his own fabricated depression while his children suffer unimaginable pain and heartache as a result of his actions and lies.

Chris is also suing Michelle Pawlina. It’s on the public docket as well. He makes the same claims he’s making about his ex-wife. He claims this woman too published stories about him on FR and Familycircus. The lies are outrageous. I bet the GAL did believe him. He’s convincing. But his time is running out. The Madison Police Department is tired of being used. Nancy Aldrich now knows who his is. The public schools, the therapists grow tired of his acting. It’s his drama that has dragged his children through torturous situations. He’s turned on each of them. He threatens and silences.

Keep writing Frank. I will contact you with credible information to support everything that is written here.

Madman of Madison, Chris Ambrose. Previously diagnosed with depression. Let him deny it. He left that out of his pleas to the court.

How is a journalist publishing case documents once online worse than the state judicial branch publishing thousands of bogus court opinions online for decades?

Even more now with the e-file documents available online.

Was it Adelman or Moukawsher who wrote in his “official” court opinion about his holier-than-thou decision to publish the FULL NAMES of ALL three children in his public court opinion? Was that to prove some point?

That should tell you what kind of %*%*$ control the family courts right now. Children and families are up against a criminal enterprise and the feds haven’t come to the rescue yet.

Is your argument: Any judge can slander any mother and any children journalists should have no way to quickly, effectively and completely dispute the lies the judicial branch publishes? What if exposing the bogus documents in the fraudulent proceedings involving public officials engaged in blatant corruption could prevent further harm and save lives?

Look online for all the family court judge opinions published online as “fact”. How many of those court opinions are filled with half-truths based on fraud upon the court?

All rulings based on fraud upon the court should be overturned. There’s no statute of limitations on proving fraud upon the court. All fraudulent court documents and all articles promoting the fraud should be removed from online outlets.

How many lives have been harmed and destroyed by fraudulent court opinions and untrue mainstream news outlet articles published online?

Only some may communicate and others may not?

Freedom of speech and freedom of the press are all we have standing between us and the perverted dystopian tyranny of those in control of some family courts.

Welcome a lawsuit against your friend. Have the worst criminals in the state start their law fare and see how you and your friend like it. Tell the worst criminals waging law fare against you: They can publish anything online for the public to see and you and your friend won’t publish a thing.

After what would probably happen next, maybe you would understand.

Chris is a very unhappy man. He always has been. His self hate is evident. It has nothing to do with his children or his ex-wife, or Frank, or Bones fans who outed him for plagiarism.
His anger and hostility are hidden behind closed doors. Those who discover who he is, are eliminated from his life and the lives of the children he now uses as objects to control and dominate–as leverage to inflict pain and destroy his wife who found him out–

Hollywood found him out. His career was failing long ago. He was let go from Bones. He knows this. He was dumped by Dick Wolf. He is not and never was hard working.

He sues and lashes out at anyone who calls him out on his conduct.
He lives in a world of fiction and lies. He always has. At 60, he always will.

He is a malignant narcissist who uses and abuses his children and his former wife and then destroys them at will, while publicly playing the victim. He used and criticized his attorney Aldrich, who got him everything– then he stiffed her 67,000 even though he got every penny from his marriage.

He is not suicidal. He will kill others before he would ever hurt himself.

“I think I might go crazy if someone stole my kids from me when they needed me.”

They weren’t stolen. There was a 90 day separation. A fit parent would stay strong and then be there to see the kids on day 91. Karen was a no-show. In effect, she abandoned the kids. Her thinking was so screwed up that She seriously thought a judge would say “well the mom never showed up to see the kids and has gone completely MIA, I am awarding her full custody today.” ??? How could that ever have happened??

Someone who has gone crazy and is homeless is not in a situation to be the custodial parent, esp when there is another parent who has a stable home. If Karen wants to blame being homeless on Chris after three years, she is totally delusional. Scores of people have gone from having zero in their bank account to having a home within 30 days or less. It is a sign of unfitness.

Luthmann was targeted. Did you not read the articles here on FR?

Cunha was a threat and then she made it easy when she lost her mind and babbled aimlessly. Her mental health crisis was unfolding before Adelman for a year. They indulged her and she sealed her own fate.

Anyone who obsessively picks their skin like she does to the point where she’s got cuts all over her face and body has a mental defect or drug addiction or both.

Adelman should have asked her to take leave instead of granting her continuances. Clearly she was overwhelmed.

They also got rid of her just when Riordan was going to put on her case. They didn’t want the evidence to come out. Disbarring cunha was there out. Shut down the injunction and the entire case.

Your headline is misleading and dishonest. I read the motion Ambrose filed. He doesn’t ask the court to stop his ex wife from saying anything about him, his motion is entirely about stopping her from telling you anything about the 3 kids because they are being teased by what you are writing. The title of his motion even says this. If you are a journalist as you say, you will correct this immediately.

You are playing with fire making light of the suicide talk. YOu have hounded Ambrose for many months. Anyone would be ruined by what you say about him and repeat ad naseam. Repeating the same stories over and over to destroy someone
s reputation isn’t “news” it’s psychological torment. If he does anything to himself, the police will be at your door.

You say you care about his kids. Ambrose didn’t tell the world he felt suicidal. You did. You think that’s good for them to see that their father is suicidal?

Please find anything reported that is not true and supported with evidence. If Ambrose is having issues it’s about exposing his bad conduct and character to the public.

He’s supposed to be looking at the articles post April 26, 2022. All of the articles have nothing to do with the children.

And the reports are not coming from the mother. Take the time to read. Kids found to be unsafe in the care of their father. That should be the concern.

The Worst Interests of the Child: The Trafficking of Children and Parents Through U.S. Family Courts
Book by Keith Harmon Snow

Jocelyn Hurwitz – the GAL in this case and in the case where Sandra MacVicar v Bugsy had both daughters taken –

Sandra was a teacher and raised her girls. The husband, like Ambrose, was an attorney but worked in a different field.

Keith Harmon Snow investigated and Jocelyn Hurwitz concealed evidence of child abuse from the court, silenced the girls – when old enough to advocate for themselves-

And released the report to the public schools. She got a court order that no one could call the police or dcf!

Jocelyn was to be called and she would determine if any steps were necessary.

They took legal and physical custody from the mother and dragged her through RFTD just like this case.

Hurwitz was also the GAL on the case in Westport where the mom killed her child and then took her own life.

I guess Jocelyn didn’t notice her client was unstable? But she’s the Gal on these cases?

“Caverly’s yanking them from a happy and loving home, with their mother, determined the course of their entire future.”

No, Karen’s crazy, borderline criminal behavior in reaction to the 90-day separation is what determined the course of their future. That 90 days could have been a blip on the radar, but Karen went crazy and destroyed any chance she had of getting custody of the kids. Did she really believe that posting all this hateful stuff about their father online was going to help her case?

“Riordan asked the judge to allow the children to come to court so they could tell their story”

The fact that she wants to drag those kids into the middle of this tells me she still does not understand the harm she is doing. You don’t put kids in the middle of this shit and force them to testify against their mother or father in court. It boggles my mind that Riordan can’t see how harmful she is to these kids.

This exact same scenario has happened to me and millions of other good mothers…when we report abuse, the courts then give our children to the abuser….the children suffer great saddnes, fear, and loss from being ripped away from their only source of love and safety…this pain cause the children to trauma bond to their abuser…when the children speak badly about the targeted mother, the abuser praises the child and gives them gifts as incentive to continue learning to hate their own mother…this evil and wicked plague against good mothers has been going on for some time so that the children will grow up to become suicidal and forever lost to themselves and society…..fathers complain that they don’t get custody….the truth is, fathers don’t really want custody…they just dont want to pay child support ..and secondly, they want to inflict the most pain on their ex wife as much as possible by using the family courts as a weapon….i have seen fathers get custody and then stick the kids with his own mother or relatives to raise the child….its a mothers nature to raise, love and nurture the young…..the damage that the children suffer from being ripped away from the loving and safe parent is phenomenal…..the courts pull this scam and sham legal process in order to extract the most money out of the litigants….first the court gives custody to mom….the narcissist will then pay everything he has just for the “win” and to be able to inflict pain and suffering upon the loving mother…..the court switches custody a few years later to the abuser so he gets what he pays for….now watch the suffering mother beg, borrow, and steal to get her babies back…it is high ctimes and racketeering to the max and be sure it includes judges, magistrates, lawyers, attorneys, guardian ad litems, counselors, custody evaluators, and even the appellate courts and the state supreme courts are in on the 55 billion dollar yearly game….the wicked and evil players in the game get off on the pain it causes to the children as they traffick them through the fake family kangaroo courts….there surely are some very good fathers who have been the targeted parent…but only when they refuse to denegrate the mother or try to destroy her while using the court as a weapon….good fathers are then punished for going against the grain of family court corruption….the family courts are a circus and they want all of us good parents to entertain their sick and twisted show….i habe no criminal history, i have never done any drugs or alcohol…i have never harmed or abused anyone..ever…i have never been found to be unfit…i lost custody to my abuser when my county gave me a 5 year protection order…2 weeks later…his county hauled me in and gave my children to my abuser because i refused to dismiss my protection order under duress….

They’re 16. They’ve been silenced in this process. Ct law allows kids 12 and older to have a say. Anyone that advocated for them was fired. They’ve been forced against their will to be with their father and kept in total isolation from their mother.

This is a Caverly case. It’s a case of fraud. This doesn’t happen. The kids are victims of Caverly and the father is sick enough to promote it. He used hundreds of thousands to secure this outcome.

What Karen has been doing is a classic case of cutting off one’s nose to spite their face.

It is her actions that have forced the court to give custody to the dad. she has also acted so incredibly vicious and threatening, I don’t see how that father could ever in good conscience hand over those kids to her in for a visit in light of how incredibly unstable and dangerous she has been behaving.

By the way, did she ever manage to obtain housing over these two or three years? Or is she still homeless?

It’s not that I support Chris. I’ve just looked at all of the evidence that’s publicly available and it looks like Karen has behaved self-destructively throughout as far as getting custody of the kids.

I have not seen any evidence that Chris is an unfit parent; to the contrary. If evidence comes out that proves me wrong, I will have no problem with saying I was wrong. But so far, I have not seen it.

It appears to me that the whole “kidnapping”/ emergency custody transfer episode was an orchestration of hired gun Jill Soderman Jones, self-proclaimed custody kidnapping expert, and not based in any reality of danger. She were trying to push the right buttons to manipulate the court and was coaching and coercing the children to that end.

What is really tragic is I saw in the custody evaluation that Chris did not even want full custody. Karen could easily have had primary custody if she didn’t go bananas and force the court’s hand. No court could give custody to her in good conscience based on her behavior. She’s done this to herself. And the sad reality is that even if the children “ like her better” that doesn’t mean she is a the right person to have custody. Is that really so hard for people to understand?

All reporting is editorializing except for reports of things like math, science and law.

Here’s the math: Many family courts destroy children and families for profit.

Here’s the science: Many family court judges destroy children and families on purpose.

Here’s the law: Many well-known family court players engaged in racketeering.

One kind of racketeering in family courts is, “an organized criminal act in which the perpetrators offer a service that will not be put into effect, offer a service to solve a nonexistent problem, or offer a service that solves a problem that would not exist without the racket.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racketeering

More law: Many well-known family court players also engaged in extortion.

Extortion can be described (without editorializing) in many different ways.

For example:
“1. Illegal use of one’s official position or powers to obtain property, funds, or patronage.
2. The act or an instance of extorting something, as by psychological pressure.
3. An excessive or exorbitant charge.
4. The act of extorting; the act or practice of wresting anything from a person by force, duress, menace, authority, or any undue exercise of power; oppressive or illegal exaction, as of excessive price, rent, or interest.
5. In law, strictly, the crime of obtaining money or other property, or service, from another under color of public office, when none is due, or not so much is due, or before it is due. In some of the United States, however, a wider meaning is given to the word by statute.
6. That which is extorted; a gross overcharge: as, the price you paid was an extortion.
7. The act of extorting; the act or practice of wresting anything from a person by force, by threats, or by any undue exercise of power; undue exaction; overcharge.
8. The offense committed by an officer who corruptly claims and takes, as his fee, money, or other thing of value, that is not due, or more than is due, or before it is due.
9. That which is extorted or exacted by force.” — More at Wordnik and at Connecticut family courts.

No one is really sure what he does for a living either, right? At least I can’t tell. Was he selling sex toys or something similarly weird on a website? The whole thing stinks. But he’ll continue to do it because he knows his way around the CT state courts where there are no rules, only envelopes apparently. That’s my opinion, anyway.

“Judge Grossman decided Riordan had to be treated for mental illness, that there was risk of “a potential bipolar episode,”

With all due respect, I recall reading the evaluator’s report that said it appeared Riordan may have been in the midst of a stress-induced bipolar mania, so the judge did not pull that one out of thin air.

Really? Can you provide the evidence of this Chris?

And “appears” is not cause for children to be taken.

Btw- since you “appear” to be reading closely, can you tell us why Caverly never called DCF? If there was such concern about the welfare of the children when in their mothers care, why didn’t Caverly make a report to DCF?

Why? Because there was nothing to find and dcf would have concluded that.

Quote from the evaluation:

“Dr. Amiri expressed that Ms. Riordan’s presentation had changed and that “I’m worried about Bipolar, manic defense against stress.”

It was her psychiatrist who noted a manic presentation.

I don’t get it. Frank seems to have made a decision to support the Mom over the Dad in this case, and even through this reporting has led to the dad feeling suicidal Frank wont stop. Is this for clicks or does Frank want the father to die? And if mom is not crazy then why not let the court sort it out without interfering like this? I have read that Frank wasn’t sure if Alex Jones or his lawyer were idiots without more proof but doesn’t seem to hold the same standard for this guy. Why?

Chris and the courts had no choice other than to “deprive them of their mother.” Like seriously. Let’s imagine that Chris decided OK I’m gonna let them go spend time with their mother today. Do you really think Karen is just going to pick them up and spend some family time with them and then bring them back? No, she is going to make it out like it’s some kind of Mission impossible assignment with invisible ink, burner phones, contacting criminals to assist in terrorizing the children against dad etc. The kids wouldn’t have a good time. It would all be about poor Karen and her delusions of grandeur.

The only thing that deprived these children of their mother was her own horrific behavior.

What a sub-par imagination.

Ambrose has done better than this irl – what with removing
locks, putting cameras round the house to spy on the children, using his advanced skill in plagiarism to develop a scenario that is super creepy and disfunctional- like a tv psycho drama where a disgraced father-thing with an appetite for Latino Boyz – kidnaps, with the help of a bent judicial system, his adopted latino boys and girl cruelly isolating them from their mother – whose pain and disorientation is mocked and reinvented as a litany of personality disorders-

Only original thing Ambose ever created – and it’s pure banality of evil stuff.
Horrific behaviour indeed. I see he still has a fan or two?

“It is factually untrue that she kidnapped the kids. She was not charged.”

Then I would argue everything she has been saying about the husband is factually untrue since he was not charged. Boom! Case closed.

Frank – thank you very very much for the way you have highlighted this injustice, and spoken up for the children especially, but also for Karen.

Having someone fight your corner really does alleviate a significant aspect of the burden of child abuse – self-blame- they’ll never have to wonder if they brought this on themselves or grow in a fog of secrets and lies, thanks to you – they’ll know how much
the village cares.

Family Court is supposed to be about the best interests of the children. How is it so hard for a Judge to get a GAL to represent the kids, walk them into chambers, and have a 20-30 minute conversation with them about their lives and what they want.

That would make too much sense and be way too effective. Instead, the Judge has to listen to Ambrose spew bullshit for a week straight about why you shouldn’t talk to his kids.

My money says the kids will probably narc on Big Pasty, and he can’t have that. Maybe he’s bribed too many people to let it fall apart now?

When did the kids speak in court? They spoke at length to the evaluators and what they said was included in the report that the judge reviewed before making the custody decision.

The sixteen year old kids might be able to talk, having reached the age of consent, but it’s quite possible they might still say whatever Ambrose wants them to, if only for the welfare of the 12 year old who can’t. Given the past history of this case and their own experiences, they could easily see the 12 year old as a hostage whose health and happiness depend on maintaining what Ambrose would view as good behavior. How can they trust any adults to do anything to help them, especially when the most responsible and respected members of our society don’t seem to care what happens to them at all?

“So what’s wrong with Ambrose letting the kids see their mother?”

It would be great if the kids could see their mother, but I do not see how in good conscience he (or anyone with two brain cells) could let her see the kids unless it was supervised by a third party, possibly in a police station. There is no way in hell he can trust her to spend time with them alone. She has behaved so unethically, illogically, destructively, and viciously. She needs to prove she is not a danger to the kids. But it seems like she is (again, illogically) hell-bent on never doing supervised visitation, so I guess she won’t see the kids till they are 18.

10:08,

Which phrase do you find so objectionable?

1. “This is about them, not Chris Ambrose”
2. “and if he wants to live again, restore the children to the mother – not to his exclusion but for them to have both parents.”

If you’re Chris (or someone who supports what he did) “do you realize how strange it sounds, that you, a complete stranger” bash those who protect children who are obviously victims of obviously corrupt family courts?

If What you wrote means you think we’re not supposed to care about anyone other than ourselves, do you realize how strange that sounds?

Have you heard of Connecticut House Bill 5342?

Would you say Connecticut legislators are “strange” for caring about children who are victims of corruption in family courts?

House Bill 5342 is called, “AN ACT CONCERNING THE PRESUMPTION OF JOINT CUSTODY IN MATTERS INVOLVING THE CARE AND CUSTODY OF A MINOR CHILD.”

It’s going to destroy family court corruption if it becomes law.

That won’t be strange. That would be a very good thing.

Guess how many family court judges, lawyers and various vendors mentioned in Frank Report articles about family court corruption will work to vigorously oppose the bill?

Here’s House Bill 5342 so far. It sounds a lot like what Frank wrote:

“Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Assembly convened:

1 That subsection (b) of section 46b-56 of the general statutes be
2 amended to provide that: (1) There shall be a rebuttal presumption that
3 joint custody and equal shared parenting time is in the best interest of
4 the child, (2) such presumption may be rebutted by clear and convincing
5 evidence, and (3) if a deviation from equal parenting time is warranted,
6 the court shall order a parenting time schedule that maximizes the time
7 each parent or de facto custodian has with the child and that is
8 consistent with ensuring the child’s welfare.

Statement of Purpose:

To create a rebuttable presumption of joint custody and shared parenting time in matters involving the care and custody of a minor child.”

@Proposed Connecticut House Bill 5342 😊

I’m a stranger giving my opinion based on what I’ve read on a blog. I’m not a stranger who is enacting a campaign apropos of nothing to make your life hell with the intended result that you will do what I tell you to do in regard to your children, with complete disregard to what a court decided after a years long case. Big difference.

I believe Caverly did what was right for the children. Karen cares more about destroying Chris than she cares for the well-being of her children. It’s plainly obvious. She can’t control herself and behave like a grownup when something as important as custody of kids is at stake. That tells you she has major mental health issues.

He may not be a psychiatrist, but your not a journalist and yet here you are. Seems fair and square to me.

Karen and Chris are disgusting parents and they will pay the price soon enough when their children escape both of them. Not too far in the future.

Ms. Easter Basket should send them some shivs, burner phones and knit masks for their escape this year, in their baskets.

Ok Yeh Karen’s mental anguish is a direct result a closet homo husband. Their marriage was like the Clintons on paper. Chris needs to be destroyed he has a trail going back to 90’s. He married Karen to cover his tracks. He also had boys in apartments in LA. Chris is out of the industry for more then scripts

DARVO: deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender

“a reaction that perpetrators of wrongdoing, particularly sexual offenders, may display in response to being held accountable for their behavior”

“a common manipulation strategy of psychological abusers”

“An abuser denies the abuse ever took place, attacks the person that was abused (often the victim) for attempting to hold the abuser accountable for their actions, and claims that they are actually the victim in the situation, thus reversing what may be a reality of victim and offender”

“It often involves not just “playing the victim” but also victim blaming”

His work to expose and take down NXIVM is featured in books like “Captive” by Catherine Oxenberg, “Scarred” by Sarah Edmonson, “The Program” by Toni Natalie, and “NXIVM. La Secta Que Sedujo al Poder en México” by Juan Alberto Vasquez.

Parlato has been prominently featured on HBO’s docuseries “The Vow” and was the lead investigator and coordinating producer for Investigation Discovery’s “The Lost Women of NXIVM.” Parlato was also credited in the Starz docuseries "Seduced" for saving 'slave' women from being branded and escaping the sex-slave cult known as DOS.

Additionally, Parlato’s coverage of the group OneTaste, starting in 2018, helped spark an FBI investigation, which led to indictments of two of its leaders in 2023.

Parlato appeared on the Nancy Grace Show, Beyond the Headlines with Gretchen Carlson, Dr. Oz, American Greed, Dateline NBC, and NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, where Parlato conducted the first-ever interview with Keith Raniere after his arrest.
