CT chiropractor Luigi DiRubba filed an appeal against the Connecticut Judicial Council’s decision to dismiss his complaint against Judge Jane Kupson Grossman.
The appeal follows a contentious divorce and custody battle between Dr. DiRubba and his ex-wife, Anna Maria DiRubba, which has been ongoing since 2016.
DiRubba alleges an unethical system of judicial misconduct in the Connecticut Courts, claiming judges and other court officials have engaged in a scheme to deprive citizens of their Constitutional rights – particularly the right to be a parent.

DiRubba filed his complaint on January 19th, and the committee took less than a month to dismiss it – on February 16th.
DiRubba appealed the complaint against Judge Grossman And Judge Susan Connors.
Pending Case Since 2016
Dr. Luigi DiRubba is a well-respected chiropractor in Central Connecticut. He has been practicing for 30 years.
The trial court’s decision, ending the marriage and giving sole custody to the wife, rendered on October 6, 2018, by Judge Leo Diana, has been the subject of ongoing litigation.
Over the years, between the parties, there were 712 motions, including custody, visitation, and financial matters on the docket.
It was a CT Family Court dream come true. And it did not end with the divorce. The parties continued to engage in post-judgment litigation, as DiRubba fights to see his children, none of whom he has seen in years.
DiRubba Alleges Unethical CT Court
Dr. Luigi DiRubba claims to be a victim of an unethical system of judicial misconduct in the Connecticut Courts.

He claims judges, attorneys, guardians ad litem (GALs), and the Department of Children and Families (DCF), engage in a profit-driven scheme to deprive citizens of their right to parent.
On October 6, 2020, Judge Diana J. Leo granted Anna Maria DiRubba’s motion for modification, terminating DiRubba’s joint custody and visitation rights. He was prohibited from communicating with his children, though there was never any finding of abuse or neglect.
DiRubba alleges this decision was made despite overwhelming evidence that the mother fabricated multiple criminal allegations against him and engaged in false reporting to law enforcement.
She should have been arrested.
He offered evidence and testimony from both the Cheshire Police Department and DCF to support his claim that his wife is a consummate liar who repeatedly perjured herself to have him charged and kept from his children.
They know the truth because they investigated her charges against DiRubba and found Anna DiRubba a liar who makes up charges against her husband to destroy his life and keep him from seeing the children.
Multiple Arrests, Dismissed Charges; Judicial Bias
During the course of the case, Dr. DiRubba was arrested six times and had protective orders issued against him.
Every charge was a domestic violence or child endangerment accusation made by Anna Maria DiRubba.
It worked to advance the mother’s interests in the divorce proceedings.

All six criminal charges were dismissed and expunged, with no evidence brought forward by Anna or her counsel, Marianne Charles, Esq., of Cos Cob, Connecticut.
Yet every charge cost him time, grief, and money.
Though all the criminal charges against Dr. DiRubba were dropped and expunged, it stole years of his life. The CT Court permitted a lying mother to continuously file false allegations, and instead of punishing her with incarceration, which she deserved, the court merely entertained the new charges, disregarding the earlier false charges. Sometimes switching judges helped too.
Allegations against Guardian Ad Litem
The guardian ad litem (GAL) appointed by the court, Janis Laliberte, also helped the lying mother.
DiRubba claims the GAL withheld crucial information, including that his wife is a despicable liar prone to making false allegations, and did not act in the best interests of the children.
In fact, it seemed a settled CT doctrine that the mother keep falsely charging the husband and even though everyone knew it was false, he had a criminal domestic charge and could be kept from the children.
The GAL failed to hold Anna Maria DiRubba accountable for obstructing justice, and did not inform the Court and DCF in a timely and professional manner of the extraordinary degree of lying and perjurious statements Anna Maria made, possibly made with the advice of counsel, Marianne Charles, to repeatedly falsely arrest DiRubba.
Some divorce attorneys call this technique of perjury “the silver bullet” – meant to strike deep and destroy men with false charges – initiated right at the outset.
Funny DiRubba had never been charged with any crime before his wife, off on an adulterous escapade, and with hopes of removing the father and placing a new man in his stead – a man who later dumped her – wanted to ruin his life for her own selfish game, is what appears to be the true story here.
Later, we will discuss the reputed criminal she began an affair with and discuss the ugly way she handled the clandestine rendezvous, necessitating the first false charge.
Later we will look into the other false charges, showing a pattern of making false charges, and with the hope that the proper law enforcement agency – possibly the FBI – arrests her for obstruction of justice and other federal crimes.
It would be justice if her co-conspirators also got nabbed in what appears to be a conspiracy.
Attorneys like Marianne Charles know that once a man is charged with domestic abuse, plus endangering the welfare of the children – which often comes automatically with the charge – whether a false charge or not – the man is at an impossible disadvantage.
So why bother to fight it out on a level playing field when there is a false charge – that silver bullet – which can do wonders – as it did against DiRubba.
Anna Maria, represented by Attorney Charles, won a knockout on the first round. It will be worth investigating how many of Charles’ female clients charge their husbands as soon as they start their divorce case under her counsel.
In DiRubba’s case, six out of six charges were dropped and expunged because, frankly, Anna lied.
In CT, she got away with it.
As soon as one set of charges were dismissed, this old perjurer would – perhaps as instructed by her attorney – file another set of charges against DikRubba with a different law enforcement agency.

We will look at all six charges later.
In addition to the emotional toll of the custody battle, and six arrests, DiRubba faced a significant financial burden. Over the seven years of this case, he spent $3 million in legal fees and other costs, even having to pay for his wife’s notorious attorney, Marianne Charles.
In one telling vignette to show how the CT Court system is financially driven – Attorney Charles was heard screaming at old Judge Kenefick – at an ex parte meeting in his chambers that he had to order DiRubba to pay her legal fees, with Charles shouting, “I want my fucking bill paid now!”
The timid judge quickly acquiesced and came out of chambers, and did as he was instructed by attorney Charles. He ordered DiRubba to pay the wife’s attorney – Charles.
DiRubba’s Frustration with Judicial System
DiRubba alleges the current Connecticut judicial system failed him and his children, and seeks [don’t laugh] justice in CT for what he claims are gross violations of various [don’t laugh] judicial codes.
Representing himself, DiRubba informed the court that he was not notified of a hearing in April 2022. He found out about it by looking at the judicial website. He claimed documents were falsified, as notice was sent to his previous address, not his current one, despite the opposing party knowing full well he did not live there anymore.
Delay in Reunification Process
Judge Susan Connors issued an order on May 2, 2022, following a full day of in-person hearings at the Connecticut courthouse that DiRubba could finally see his children.
He had successfully completed the DCF Intimate Partner Violence Program, [even though he was never convicted of any domestic violence, he took the course because he was told he could see his children.]
DiRubba filed a Motion for Modification of the Court order on May 10, 2022, so he could see his children – in compliance with Judge Connors’ order.
A hearing was set for July 2022. It was postponed at the request of the mother and Attorney Charles, further delaying the reunification process for DiRubba and his children.
A new hearing date was set for September 16, 2022. DiRubba was eager to finally win the right to see his kids.
Mother Relocates to Florida
Slick Anna Maria DiRubba. By the time the hearing day came, she had already moved with the children to Florida without notifying the Court.
The mother refused to return the children to Connecticut and the CT Court has no jurisdiction.
Revealing Testimony During Hearing
During a hearing held in front of Judge Grossman to rule on DiRubba’s motions to bring the children back to Connecticut, new revelations came to light: The mother had preplanned the illegal move to Florida to withhold the children from DiRubba and obstruct the reunification process.

Violations of Connecticut Law Alleged
Dr. DiRubba claims the mother’s actions violate Connecticut law, which requires specific analysis and approval from the court before a parent can relocate with a child.
But in CT, it is not what someone does, but who their attorney is. Anna Maria had Mariane Charles.
While on the books, interference with child custody, including reunification, is a criminal offense in Connecticut, punishable by imprisonment and fines. But if Marianne Charles represents you, the law becomes inapplicable. CT works that way.
DiRubba has vowed to fight for his rights and the well-being of his children. He claims Judge Grossman ignored the exigent circumstances in his case despite evidence presented.
He hopes that if he can show corruption in the Connecticut Family Courts, they will have no choice but to vacate all prior rulings and give him a fair shake in court with an unbiased judge.
He hopes to get [don’t laugh] a fair shake in CT family court? Ah, he who lives on such hope shall die fasting.
After $3 million to get nothing but injustice and corruption, how does DiRubba hope this cesspool of corruption will ever become honest?

You people are out of your fucking minds, should have built a connection with your kids before the divorce.
seems like Walky is very Talky …sorry troll late to the ballgame with that stupid comment.
Typical fowl smell from CT family court. Not sure who is wiping whoa ass…attorney to judge or vice versa. The GAL’s just keep score so they can figure out their percentage. F*cking disgusting swines.
Seems like “Simplify” knows a lot about this case. Where did you get your information from? Is this even true? What is the mother and 6 children doing now. How are the kids?
Gal should have no immunity. It’s part of the CT courthouse scam.
Of gals could be held accountable and sued for malpractice, the abuse to children and divorce for profit would end.
I am in this same nightmare in Pennsylvania and I don’t know how to carry on ..no counsel after several lawyers drained me and attempting to fight as pro se but learning is so complicated..is there any hope of seeing my little girl again ? Almost a year now since heard her voice even ..I beg someone help me find my way so much evidence and suicidal threats from her mother etc and so much more and worse and still 💔 no end in sight ..can’t even find way through maze of legalese to understand let alone file to go back to court
Going through the same but I can show you how to file paperwork against the clerk of court and the judge and thus should have went to the appealiates court but no worries we can also file a claim through maximum and also file the proper paperwork to IRS where they have to give you back all that money and they will nail her for that money as well as that judge will be fired as well as that attorney will have to pay you back all your money’s yeah I can go on and on and on get a chance message me
Love to hear it how this works and plays out
MR BERR I WOULD APPRECIATE IR If YOU COYLD TEXT ME 804 789 4957 OR E MAIL LIZELLE6711@AOL.COM THANK YOU
Do you know what’s really sad is that the local media doesn’t do anything about this doesn’t expose these white-collar criminals. They always say that family law attorneys are the bottom feeders in the legal world and Mary Charles is a prime example. And these judges ( all prior attorneys) don’t do anything about it because they’re selected by their peers.
The looks of it.. Charles saved this family.
OH MY GOSH THIS IS MY CASE almost identically to this one however mine hasn’t moved but he is trying to pull my little one out of school. THIS IS CRAZY!! Thank you for posting this!! I pray this goes in your favor! This is my life and its wrong! This happens to so many right now and it needs to stop! My girls and I have no protection from this
The father is telling the truth– now the truth is dirty laundry because it publicly exposes CT court corruption? None of the parents who have come forward have a desire to air ‘dirty laundry’ but the courts give them no choice. They are advocates. This man is destroyed by the family court system– What’s the dirty laundry? That his wife had an affair? Who cares? It pales in comparison to all that the court process did to him.
Innocent children are being abused when they have a parent removed from their lives– and then ‘erased’ from their memories by hired psychologists (Not psychiatrists/no medical degrees accountable to hospitals)– and this father is telling the world about it. He is WARNING everyone because the public will otherwise never learn the truth and RICO will continue. It’s thrived in family court for nearly two decades. Please don’t trash this man further because he was brave enough to bring his destruction to the public.
Do you think any parent wants to publicly admit they were played by a corrupt system? That he is destitute and reliant upon his mother after being dragged through the evil of the family court. Please consider the complexity and duration of suffering this man has endured. He’s tried every other avenue possible–
Public exposure is the only way– public scrutiny and pressure. The truth matters.

👍
You are allowing the abuser to continue abusing his ex wife and children..
Criminals have access to their children in prison.
Why is the public not outraged that parents get those same rights?
Children are experiencing the death of a parent— this is what family court is doing.
People can’t protest what they don’t know.
Does anyone know how the 6 dirubba children are doing? I do hope they are ok with all this conflict.
From the frying pan to the fire
5:59 witness. It would be helpful if you put your name out.
LoL because there is no witness. This teenager was not involved in sports. She was involved in playing an instrument and chorus. Mom was the only one who attended the concerts. Unfortunately there are supports who don’t want people to know what is happening in family court.
lol you must be talking about a different case because the DiRubba children were all involved in sports AND the father was involved in programs either coaching, managing the team or as assistant coach. “Anonymous” again is having a a false narrative moment.. go get your meds.
I see someone is aggressive.
I am because the comments were about a different case. I don’t know what happened in the Dubric case. Just following along with the whole alienation battle accuring in Connecticut. Check into anger management it might resolve your case.
I think maybe Dr.DiRubba needs his medication
Hey Anonymous 350pm… we can see you’re a member of “Suppositories R Us” lifetime member. Be proud my dear
Looks like dirubba, needs anger management support.
I believe you’re talking about the wrong case
To clarify all the Dirubba children who are involved in sports that their dad was highly involved in assisting him. Full witness because my two children were good friends with his kids on the same team at the dad was managing/assisting
Who knows what the home life was like. Someone should ask the ex-wife
Did you ever see the ex-wife
Was the mother at the games. Does anyone know anything about the ex wife?

CHESHIRE — A local man charged with risk of injury to a minor was released on $7,500 bond and is scheduled to appear at court next week.
Luigi DiRubba, 49, of 33 Chamberlain Court, was arrested on March 3 and also charged with disorderly conduct.
On Feb. 5, police were called to DiRubba’s home for a 911 hangup. When the dispatcher called back, a man answered saying “everything is alright” but yelling was heard in the background, according to a police report. Officers spoke with DiRubba and a woman in the home and charged him with disorderly conduct. There were also six children present in the home.
As DiRubba was preparing to leave, the woman gave police a computer flash drive with images and a video. The video showed one of the children holding an injured eye and indicating DiRubba caused the injury, the report said.
DiRubba is scheduled to appear at Meriden Superior Court on March
And this charge was later dropped and expunged, because it seems the wife lied.
Ya ok. Do your research you loser. Go get a real job
Ya ok..
Does anyone know how the dirubba children are doing? Are they emotionally doing well? Any updates.
Did you bother to read the article? The charges were without merit. Fully investigated– every one of them and he is innocent.
Ya ok
Seems like this “anonymous” continues to try to promote the setup false narrative created. The gentleman was cleared of all charges due to no no evidence. The false accuser created the scenario that transpired, is that you or is this your attorney portraying themselves as anonymous? you both need some self reflecting continuing medication. I interacted with this false accuser for quite a while, and fell for her stories but slowly her stories never made sense, and I started seeing the lies exposed themselves. That’s why I’m no longer friends with her. I’m ashamed of myself, or even exposing my children to her. I truly feel sorry for the DiRubba children who have been brainwashed and suffering under her and her parents psychotic dynamics. Luigi, keep telling the truth and exposing the lies, the vile will be lifted and kids will come around. Prayers to you.
Lol. Loser.
Prayers to you also, and to your parents psychotic dynamics.
How are the dirubba 6 children. Does anyone know?
This should give you a good glimpse on how they are doing…. Encapsulated Delusional Disorder and Alienation of children in divorce and separation
APA Definition of Delusional Disorder
delusional disorder in DSM–IV–TR, any one of a group of psychotic disorders with the essential feature of one or more nonbizarre delusions that persist for at least 1 month but are not due to schizophrenia. The delusions are nonbizarre in that they feature situations that could conceivably occur in real life (e.g., being followed, poisoned, infected, deceived by one’s government). Diagnosis also requires that the effects of substances (e.g., cocaine) or a medical condition be ruled out as causes of the delusions. Seven types of delusional disorder are specified, according to the theme of the delusion: erotomanic, grandiose, jealous, persecutory, somatic, mixed, and unspecified. Criteria changes for delusional disorder in DSM–5 include the following: The delusions may be either nonbizarre or bizarre (i.e., implausible), and their potential presence as a result of an ingested substance, a medical condition, or another mental disorder sometimes associated with firmly held delusional beliefs (e.g., obsessive-compulsive disorder, body dysmorphic disorder) must be ruled out. Formerly called paranoid disorder.
An encapsulated delusion is a belief in one area of life which is fixed and unshakeable even in the face of evidence to the contrary. Encapsulated delusional disorder, is seen in cases of alienation of children, when a child is showing the signs of psychological splitting and is aligned with a parent who has an unshakeable belief that the other is harmful to the child’s wellbeing. Encapsulated delusions are extremely powerful and in their strongest display, will cause the holder to bend all evidence to shape their beliefs. Children in the care of a parent who is suffering from encapsulated delusions, become fearful, anxious and bound into the belief of the parent that the parent who is being rejected, is harmful. When a child suffers a fixed and unshakeable belief that a parent is harmful, where there is clear evidence that the parent is not, the child is considered to be suffering from significant emotional and psychological harm. In such circumstances, removal from the care of the parent who is suffering the delusion is often necessary.
Encapsulated delusions occur in people who in many other areas of life appear to be normal. The fixation of the delusion, which is not accompanied by hallucination, is the key symptom. The person suffering from such delusions, is unusually obsessed by the focus of the delusion, believing that they have discovered something or know something that others do not know. This belief is often accompanied by a grandiosity which is narcissistic in nature and which causes the sufferer to believe that they are better than others, because they know a truth that others don’t. Efforts to dissaude the sufferer are futile and in fact can escalate the fixed nature of the belief. Unfortunately, for children in the care of someone who suffers encapsulated delusion, there is no choice but to enter into the shared persecutory belief that the other parent is harmful.
Children who grow up believing that a healthy parent is dangerous to them when they are not, suffer significant harm. In some cases of encapsulated delusion, the beliefs are so fixed and so harmful, that a parent will demand that a child is medically examined, for example, for signs of sexual abuse. In the absence of evidence that the child has suffered sexual abuse, to make such a demand is, by any measure of responsible and healthy parenting, itself, abuse. Sadly, in too many cases of encapsulated delusional disorder, this is one of the outcomes and this is often the point at which the threshold for significant harm is considered to be crossed and the state in the form of local authority child protection services step in.
Encapsulated or shared persecutory delusions, are uncommon in alienation cases, but they are one of the range of reasons why, children are removed from the care of a parent. Such a persecutory belief arises from behaviours which are defensive in nature and which are usually fear and anxiety based. The belief that the other parent is seeking to do harm, simply by wanting to have a relationship with the child, appears to stem in many cases, from unresolved childhood abuse in the parent suffering the delusion. The projection of the unresolved issues onto the child, especially during the period post divorce or separation, when anxiety is already high, is often the beginning of an episodic reaction in the parent who is suffering the delusion. Over time, the child becomes bound into a process by which, the rejected parent’s love begins to be experienced as persecutory and something to be afraid of. This causes serious emotional and psychological harm.
In my experience of working with families where encapsulated delusional disorder has been present, the suffering parent will bend all incoming evidence which contradicts the delusion they are suffering, to ensure their belief is upheld. So, for example, anyone who presents evidence that the rejected parent is not persecutory, but is healthy and well, becomes aligned in the mind of the sufferer to the rejected parent and becomes persecutory simply by their existence. In such circumstances, where the Court itself is also often experienced as persecutory, the parent binds the child tighter into the sharing of this encapsulated delusion, making it impossible to protect the child without removal from the parent. It must be recognised, that even where a child is removed in such circumstances, every effort is made by the Court to maintain a relationship between the child and the parent they have been removed from, in a way that is safe.
A good example of a shared persecutory delusion is where a parent believes that a child has been abused, during a period of time when the person being accused of abuse, could not have been responsible. A belief that abuse is taking place when a parent is not in the country, for example, which leads to the construction of an explanation of how the supposed abuser returned to the country without others knowing, to abuse the child and then left, again without anyone being aware of it, other than the parent suffering the delusion. When a child echoes the beliefs of the parent, in a situation where there is clear evidence to the contrary, especially when this leads to the parent wanting to have the child medically examined, action has to be taken to protect the child.,
The current climate in the UK, in which there is an almost mantra like repetition, that all allegations of parental alienation are used by abusive men to control protective mothers, is ignorant of the reality of the serious underlying psychological and mental health conditions which cause alienation reactions in children. The idea that a parent can go into Court and claim that a child is being alienated and that this automatically overrides existing evidence of domestic abuse, is simply not upheld by the reality of how cases of alienation in children are managed.
Cases of alienation of children are serious and taken very seriously. A finding of fact of domestic abuse would preclude a case being considered as alienation at the Clinic, as this is considered to be a contributory factor to the child’s rejection. In the absence of any such finding, psychological and psychiatric assessments are sought, in order to determine the presence or absence of mental health problems, ruling in or out serious conditions such as shared encapsulated persecutory delusions, is part of the differentiation process. Only when there has been a long process of observation, clinical assessment and differentiation, where a parent is demonstrating an incapacity to recognise harmful behaviours, does removal of the child on the basis of safeguarding occur and when it does, it is always the Court which makes that decision. The current popular narrative about alienation, which is promulgated by ideological researchers and a group of parents supporters, who are themselves, likely to be on the spectrum of fixed and unshakeable thinking, is a huge distortion of what really happens in Court.
Which is why it is so important to pull apart what we mean by alienation of children in divorce and separation and to recognise and acknowledge that, however unpalatable it may seem, removal of children to protect them from harm, is sometimes necessary. As in all child protection work, careful differentiation takes place before intervention. Believing that someone can simply say a child is being alienated and that overrides everything else, including proven domestic abuse, is, so far from the truth as to represent a shared delusion in itself.
Alienated children are in need of protection because they are being abused. Protecting them is our primary responsibility because of the seriousness of the harm that they are suffering. The Court is the place in which those matters are recognised and addressed. Of course, some will claim alienation when it is nothing of the sort, however, the stringent court processes, ensure that those cases are identified. Alienation is not something which is taken lightly and what lies beneath genuine cases, should be of serious concern to anyone who cares about the wellbeing of children
How are the children. Any updates?

The Court is the place in which those matters are recognised and addressed. Of course, some will claim alienation when it is nothing of the sort, however, the stringent court processes, ensure that those cases are identified. Alienation is not something which is taken lightly and what lies beneath genuine cases, should be of serious concern to anyone who cares about the wellbeing of children
Someone should ask Mr. DiRubba for the videos he took while he beat his children.
Wonder if they exist or are the product of the wife’s silver bullet fraud?
We love ya Frank, but the court of public opinion weighs in all sides. Unlike the court system we must hear and consider all the facts.
Frank should be charged for slander.
The alleged videos are NON EXISTENT. If they did exist, the lying spouse would have produced them, and she did not.
Why is this stupid question even being entertained, if this guy truly did what she claimed to her and the kids he would been locked up for quite awhile and would not of had supervised visits, TRO on ex only not including the kids… she is a BS artist. She hired a ambulance chasing vulture, she ran with it and the attorney knew she was going to make a big payday with this type of mentally off client . Only a mentally unstable person would do that to their children. Try to destroy her ex to make herself look good… read some of the other articles- what a demented psychopath.
We need to shut down family court by warning all who enter. If I only knew then what no one can possibly imagine.
Sounds like a Silver Bullet Divorce to me.
What is a Silver Bullet Divorce? If you search hard enough (actually, one of the first groups of links when you search), you’ll find several blogs and instruction sites on how to kick your spouse out and gain leverage in a divorce case. One common thread is if all else fails, it is to file a PFA (Protection From Abuse) or child abuse claim. While domestic violence cases can be legitimate, the standard of evidence is entirely too low. The elected officials and attorneys who created this low standard then abuse it to the point of teaching other attorneys how to profit from this low bar. It has gotten so out of control that in Williamson County, Texas, Assistant District Attorney Leslie Levy held a seminar to teach other family law attorneys how to employ PFAs to gain an advantage for their clients in a divorce case. We won’t quote the whole video, but here are some memorable quotes:
Asst. DA: We got this guy kicked out from his house because it was too close to her house. The constable called and said: “You realize the result of this is that he has to leave his house?”
Asst. DA: Yes, we do. It’s up to him if he wants to violate that protective order or not.
This is a video in which Attorney Leslie Levy instructs other attorneys on how to use PFAs in their divorce so her office doesn’t have to deal with them.
The purpose of this seminar was to shift the caseload from her office directly to the attorneys since doing the PFA as a part of their case does not put the burden on the DA’s office, which then does not have to be the ones to prosecute. As so many of these attorneys utilize it as a negotiating tool and not as actual protection from abuse, the office is overloaded with prosecuting the cases, which are often rubber-stamped by judges. She spends 38 minutes selling the group of attorneys on why doing the PFA is advantageous in divorce and how to file them in a way that requires the least evidence, as well as the technicalities in some of the easier-to-stick charges. As in one of our other articles, we acknowledge that domestic violence is real, and something does need to exist for it. But putting in place laws that can be applied with no evidence destroys families and children. That is not how to do it.
Asst. DA: Who here has filed a divorce and filed a protective order as a part of it? [mostly all hands go up] I love that! …so I would encourage you very strongly if you have one of those cases to do the protective order as part of your case. It gives you more leverage in negotiating a settlement.
Asst DA: My point is that it often will help your case to do it. You’ll get evidence that will be just as applicable in the divorce, it’ll leverage onto your divorce, and you can file it into the divorce.
At minute 32, Attorney Levy comments on how judges hate to rule on cases involving children when there is no evidence of harm to the child or against the parent. Her solution? File it with the divorce. And why is that? Minute 38, because they feel they are using criminal courts to get a divorce. And in divorce cases, you do not need evidence–just a reasonable fear.
Asst. DA: If you file it into your divorce and do it as a part of a temporary order, that concern goes away…and its not in the code but a preference…so if you file it into yours, you can get a better outcome, a better settlement…it will help your case in the long run…I am happy to send you all the forms we use.
• Assess whether a child or parent is at risk for physical, emotional, or mental abuse.
• Review the evidence so that the safety of the child is the primary factor in determining his or her best interest.
• Evaluate safety risks at various stages of a case, from initial filing through post-disposition.
• Make findings that explain and prioritize safety concerns.
• Draft custody and visitation orders that maximize family safety.
This tool will also assist you in conducting a thoughtful exploration of the child’s safety risks when abusive behavior has been part of the family fabric …

Grossman has been involved in too many of these cases for it to be mere coincidence. Why are the rights of parents being summarily destroyed without due process? Why has the Connecticut and national media not been all over this and other eerily similar cases, e.g., Riordan-Ambrose? I’m grateful for Frank Parlato and others for continuing to shine a light, but more and broader attention must be paid, or these injustices will continue. More families will be ripped apart, and more children will be ignored.
“these injustices will continue. More families will be ripped apart, and more children will be ignored.”
Some political parties in the world want to destroy the family.
An internet search for “Connecticut“ “Communists” will tell you more.
“… It might seem like the abolition of the private household is not a priority, politically, when black gestators are dying in maternity wards, but it’s actually the opposite when you consider (as Hartman shows us) that it was the invention of the “natural” private family household that entrenched the disposability of black life in America …”

Kenefick should have been put out to pasture decades ago. Why is that old crook still parking his crusty ass on the bench and thieving people’s money? The kickbacks are just like a drug. Old bat can’t get enough hits of Other People’s Money and the power to steal it without consequence.
This article misses the point. DiRubba’s lawyers were playing him, all attorneys conspired to plunder the family bank. He was the mark. Racketeering disguised as family law.
I think it makes that point but thanks for clearly connecting the dots. Agree 100 percent.
But judges like Grossman are complicit. They are all violating ct statutes and federal laws.
It’s like the world accepts whatever a judge says even when their orders violate the law!
Judge Grossman is stupid, dumb, ignorant of the law, on the bench because of ‘connections’ not intellect, a danger to children.
You have no respect
Huurrr Durrrr… rEsPeCt ThE dEmOnS wHo TrAfFiC cHiLdReN! 🤪🤪🤪
It’s not respect we’re missing. What we’re short of is rope, the constitutional remedy for treason.
Take a good look at her law firms Facebook page. She doesn’t appear eithical. Her post encourage abusive men. Hatred towards women. she promotes nasty high conflict divorce and custody battles.
Who doesn’t appear to be ethical
She is a nasty personality (lack of or just a pure narc). nasty aura, nasty persona and filthy ethics. Sadly none of her colleagues call her out on it due to the frat/sorority environment of family court…judges, attorneys, therapists and social/family affair workers. They are all afraid to speak up …look what happened to Attorney Cunha
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/sAG-1OPHp30
System is working perfectly, just as designed to promote familial conflict, generate lawyer feed, sever parent-child bonds, not gonna change.
Thank you for keeping a spotlight on CT family court corruption. DiRubba’s case demonstrates this has everything to do with connections and money—
The attorneys size things up from the start. No doubt the move to Florida was pre-planned. The decisions are made before you step foot in the court.
Jane Grossman is pure evil.
She’s taken a total of TEN children from healthy parents and that’s just from three cases within a two year period. And never had any intention of “reunification”.
The numbers are far higher on Grossman alone.
It would appear to be difficult to convince 10 children that another parent is bad. What have the children reported to the court?
Children are not allowed to report to the court
That’s factually untrue. They are allowed to speak to the court in CT.
No, they’re not. That’s exactly why the courts appoint a GAL to ensure that the child’s point of view is never even heard or considered.
Perhaps by law they are but in case after case that right is denied.
Family court does NOT allow kids to speak.

CHESHIRE — A local man charged with risk of injury to a minor was released on $7,500 bond and is scheduled to appear at court next week.
Luigi DiRubba, 49, of 33 Chamberlain Court, was arrested on March 3 and also charged with disorderly conduct.
On Feb. 5, police were called to DiRubba’s home for a 911 hangup. When the dispatcher called back, a man answered saying “everything is alright” but yelling was heard in the background, according to a police report. Officers spoke with DiRubba and a woman in the home and charged him with disorderly conduct. There were also six children present in the home.
As DiRubba was preparing to leave, the woman gave police a computer flash drive with images and a video. The video showed one of the children holding an injured eye and indicating DiRubba caused the injury, the report said.
DiRubba is scheduled to appear at Meriden Superior Court on March
The “children” in every case have been silenced by the gal and not represented in court.
In two of the cases the “children” are in their teens, and still the court will not allow them to be heard.
Once the gal makes a recommendation, if it is against their wishes (which it has been) the children are to get their own counsel. But in every case the judge denies it.
It’s solely about the money. Kids are collateral.
I can attest to this. The child was 16 and 17. The GaL withheld text message from the father bad mouthing the mother. There are absolutely no records from the psychologist office. Other health professionals weighing in were not considered. The GaL was obstructing information. Directing the narrative. The almost adult sent her messages being unhappy with her conduct and dishonesty. So the GaL stopped speaking with the minor she was representing.
I was one of the parents that spoke to the GAL when the mother stated that the father was abusing the kids in front of my kids which was untrue my kids told me everything and the GAL did not disclose my information
The father was always good to his kids. He was involved with the children’s school activities, and he was also involved coaching them for many years including my children and many other children not once. Did we ever see any bad conduct by the father over many years prior to her claims, they were married for 1516 years and now all of a sudden he was bad all of these 15 or 16 years to her and the children bullshit she lied about everything And as you can see her attorney probably help there in the lying process
Absolutely on point. Thank you for validating.
At no point did the GaL contact anyone on the list. Including dads family members. The school guidence councilor’s records were ignored. Numerous text messages from other adults. Her own attorney didn’t present. The GaL was a Long time attorney for the fathers girlfriend family. It was a set up from the beginning. From the father and his attorney.
Not if the alienating parent is borderline/narcissistic watch and don’t be surprised
Frank , it would be helpful if you printed the psychologist evaluation to see if all 6 of the childrens stories were the same. Cause in Connecticut if the wind blows sideways someone is yelling parental alienation.
Father Spends Over $1.3 Million Battling False Allegations, Hasn’t Seen Children in Three Years
Tom Lemons, Legal Correspondent October 30, 2021
CONNECTICUT – States have different laws regarding divorce, child custody, visitation, and financial support, but how cases play out in court often depends on the depth of a litigant’s pockets, rather than the best interest of a child.
Dr. Luigi DiRubba is a chiropractor in Cheshire Connecticut and has been fighting to see three of his six children for over three years. DiRubba says his wife filed for divorce in 2016 and has made numerous domestic violence and child endangerment allegations, in an attempt to alienate him from his children and advance herself in the divorce by utilizing the justice system. As a result of the false allegations, DiRubba has been arrested six times and had several ex parte protective orders issued against him. Eventually, each charge was dismissed and expunged, after his ex-wife and her attorney were unable to provide a shred of evidence that he was abusive or committed any criminal acts against her or the children. DiRubba tried to file criminal complaints against his wife for making false reports to law enforcement, but the statute of limitations would run out before each case was resolved. The statute is only one year from the time of an arrest, and he says the courts would intentionally postpone proceedings
until the statute expired, leaving him with no legal recourse against his ex-wife. DiRubba says his ex-wife was so emboldened by the ability to get away with lying that immediately after one charge was dropped, she would literally walk to the civil court division and petition for another false protective order. She also used different law enforcement jurisdictions to file her criminal complaints – essentially “cop shopping.”
The financial burden falls solely on DiRubba and has cost him over $1.3 million dollars, so far. From the onset of the divorce filing, DiRubba was ordered to pay $210,000 in annual child and spousal support. After three years, a judge reduced that amount to $110,000 per year but he was also ordered to pay his ex-wife’s legal expenses and a court ordered Guardian Ad Litem, which combined cost him another $300,000. And that doesn’t include his own legal expenses.
DiRubba says, “They (judges and attorneys) don’t care about the issues of the children. The children were rarely brought up in court, but the topic of money was always discussed during hearings.” DiRubba believes the courts are “fixed” and that judges and attorneys scratch each other’s backs to benefit their careers. “In Connecticut, we are finding more and more incestuous behavior between judges and attorneys because judges are appointed by their peers. And who are their peers? The attorneys.” That is true in many jurisdictions around the country. Even elected judges are often subjected to political pressure from special interest groups, state bar associations, or other elected officials.
Throughout the divorce process, Judges have denied and dismissed the admission of mental health evaluations, Department of Children and Families (DCF) recommendation and reversal of findings, and even the testimony of the $135,000 court ordered Guardian Ad Litem opinion. Without that evidence, DiRubba says his ex-wife has free reign to continue alienating him from the children’s lives.
In 2017, Licensed Psychologist Dr. James Connolly submitted a 42-page evaluation of the DiRubba family and concludes that significant harm is being inflicted on the children. Connolly writes:
If Anna Maria (DiRubba’s estranged wife) continues to obstruct Luigi’s visitation with the three youngest children to such an extent that the visits are substantially disrupted, it will be necessary to revisit the issue of their physical custody. Anna Maria needs to demonstrate from this time forward that she can become an emotionally temperate caregiver for her children who will no longer obstruct Luigi’s access to the children and will cease to infect them with emotional contagion which the effect of increasing their fear of their father and inducing a desire in them to avoid contact and relationship building with him.
At the same time that Anna Maria filed for divorce in 2016, she contacted the Department of Children and Families and made several allegations of abuse and neglect against her husband. DCF initially believed the allegations and submitted their findings to the courts. DiRubba was forced to participate in a domestic violence diversion program, have only supervised visitation
with the children, and be added to the department’s Child Abuse Central Registry. It wasn’t until last year that DCF reversed its decision, due to false allegations, falsified evidence, and coercion of the children by Anna Maria. State Hearing Officer, Attorney Robin D. O’Shea writes:
The credible evidence in the record reveals that the Appellant and his former wife were in the initial stages of a contentious separation and divorce when the Department first became involved with the family in February 2016. Prior to that, there had been no reported concerns to the Department, even though all six children were school age at the time, played a variety of sports and participated in many activities, and were clearly visible in the community. The reliable evidence also demonstrates that the Appellant’s ex-wife has fabricated or embellished the Appellant’s behaviors to suit her own agenda.
The report goes on to reveal that DCF never interviewed the children or the father and depended solely on testimony by the ex-wife that DiRubba had been abusive throughout their 17-year marriage. DCF reversed its findings in December of 2020.
According to DiRubba, the Guardian Ad Litem told both attorneys and the prosecutor in his criminal charges that Anna Maria stated she would do anything, including lying to get an edge on the divorce, even if it resulted in DiRubba going to jail. “My ex-wife told the reunification therapist, Dr. Bob Horowitz, that if he doesn’t stop wanting to see the kids, she was going to file sexual abuse charges,” says DiRubba. The Judge has denied every motion filed by DiRubba to have this evidence heard in open court, which would have shifted the pendulum for custody and financial orders in DiRubba’s favor. DiRubba doesn’t understand why Dr. Connelly’s psychiatric evaluation and all other supporting evidence has been barred from consideration by the judge. DiRubba says, “I never wanted to take the children away from their mother, I just want to have equal time-sharing and to be a part of their lives.”
DiRubba continues to be proactive in his struggle to regain some regular contact with his children. Earlier this year, DiRubba began individual counseling sessions with Dr. Carla S. Stover, a licensed clinical psychologist and associate professor at Yale University Child Study Center. Stover established the guidelines and programs used by DCF and submitted a letter regarding DiRubba’s participation in the Fathers for Change program, which she developed to help fathers become better parents. In DiRubba’s case, Stover is working to prepare him for the reunification process and wanted to facilitate counseling with the children, but Anna Maria refused to allow the children to participate in the program. Stover recommends that reunification begin immediately but nothing can move forward without Anna Maria’s approval. The courts have already denied three motions by DiRubba for reunifications, and he doesn’t have much hope in the judge’s stance changing anytime soon. DiRubba is concerned that without his involvement in the children’s upbringing, they will experience further behavioral and developmental harm. “The court is allowing enmeshment and delusional pathologies in the children with her continued brainwashing alienating behavior,” says DiRubba.
Parental Alienation is a tactic used by one parent to disaffect children from having a desire to be involved in the targeted parent’s life. It usually occurs during a divorce or separation to give
the alienator an advantage in custody and time-sharing proceedings. The DiRubba case is a classic example of the abhorrent practice and how false allegations, and brainwashing are used to make children fearful of the targeted parent. The belief that Parental Alienation Syndrome is a form of child abuse or that it exists at all is still up for debate among some judges and that’s what many say needs to change.
Psychotherapist Karen Woodall recently published an article on a condition she calls Encapsulated Delusional Disorder, which is a psychiatric disorder that alienators often suffer from. Woodall Explains:
An encapsulated delusion is a belief in one area of life which is fixed and unshakeable even in the face of evidence to the contrary. Encapsulated delusional disorder, is seen in cases of alienation of children, when a child is showing the signs of psychological splitting and is aligned with a parent who has an unshakeable belief that the other is harmful to the child’s wellbeing. Encapsulated delusions are extremely powerful and in their strongest display, will cause the holder to bend all evidence to shape their beliefs. Children in the care of a parent who is suffering from encapsulated delusions, become fearful, anxious and bound into the belief of the parent that the parent who is being rejected, is harmful. When a child suffers a fixed and unshakeable belief that a parent is harmful, where there is clear evidence that the parent is not, the child is considered to be suffering from significant emotional and psychological harm. In such circumstances, removal from the care of the parent who is suffering the delusion is often necessary.
Woodall was asked by a reader why the courts often hesitate in removing children from alienating parents. Woodall replied:
Because removing a child has been considered to be draconian in situations where emotional and psychological abuse has not been recognized for the harm that it does over the child’s lifetime. Over the past ten years it has been increasingly recognized, however. When the wider world understands the harm that alienation does to the child, it will join the other categories of abuse such as sexual and physical and will be recognized for the serious harm it causes. For a child who is alienated, which itself is about the child being forced to develop a false self in order to survive, the emotional and psychological impact is overwhelming. A child cannot identify that abuse, they can only suffer its consequences, there are no marks upon the child which identify the abuse, only the signs of alienation, which are demonstrated by a well-recognized defense of psychological splitting. When psychological splitting is seen, further investigation becomes necessary to identify the cause of that. Until now none of this has been widely recognized, but it is being recognized and over the coming months and years, will be increasingly known and acted upon.
DiRubba believes judges often have a more nefarious motive in dismissing the effects of Parental Alienation Syndrome, and it has everything to do with money and politics. He now refers to the family court system as the “cash for kids program.”
“Having your children taken away because of false allegations, falsified evidence, and brainwashing has become a living nightmare,” says DiRubba. The fight continues for DiRubba to see his children again, just like thousands of other distraught and brokenhearted parents around the country.
Read below excerpts from psychiatrist report
“Alienation” is an industry …
“… Have you (or your children) been sent to a reunification camp to reestablish a bond or a relationship with an abusive parent? …”
https://www.alienationindustry.com/class-action-lawsuit
Reunification does not work only for the parent who continues in brainwashing the child especially when the child has been withheld for a very long period from the other parent that’s like asking to save your child from the sharks in the water, but they tied you to the post in the sand. Good luck with that, you can only break a bond of a child and parent when one parent is poisoning the child and has full control of the child. It’s called brainwashing tactics very well known process when you have a corrupt attorney
“State Lawmakers Consider Bill Banning Controversial Reunification Therapy and Camps
Scientifically unproven, reunification therapy is a controversial method in which children are removed from their preferred parent or safe parent, often used as a tactic to deflect allegations of abuse or mistreatment directed towards the other parent and cost tens of thousands of dollars.“
https://centerforjudicialexcellence.org/2023/04/11/state-lawmakers-consider-bill-banning-controversial-reunification-therapy-and-camps/
The whole concept of reunification is contrived! There is no need for reunification– it only occurs after the courts sever bonds, make draconian orders, and then want the money train to continue so they introduce reunification when they were the ones to break the bonds in the first place.
Childress is a psychopath himself. Stop giving him oxygen. Self-published fool can’t pass the most basic peer review, has no expertise, and blows nonsense out of his ass all the time. He would found a cult if there were enough dumb people to follow him. There are people doing good work to help, this is definitely not one of them.
It’s amazing how spouses of the financier become borderline and narcissistic in family court. Zero history of it, maintains friendships and jobs for decades, never an issue until they enter family court. And the diagnosis is never made by a medical doctor- only a court appointed quack who seals the fraudulent evaluation.
Jessica Biren Caverly’s cases and Linda Smith’s cases are identical. They’re used to malign one parent and Rob the family bank.
The financier would prefer to pay the attorneys and court appointed experts the costs of full custody and all assets than to pay child support, alimony to the deserving spouse.
Remember, these types of cases already decided before they walk into the court room the attorneys have had their meetings and how they’re going to divvy up the assets, and how much of a percentage they’re going to extract they look at the two individuals and see how they can steer the case to maximize their pockets. It’s got nothing to do with gender they saw that the ex-wife was a little off and he was firm. Let’s maximize her craziness and throw the father under the bus and force him to pay, that’s all that happened here very simple. They couldn’t care 2 shits about the children. If they did, they would’ve exposed the P.I., the witnesses, the conflict of interest of the attorney with exs boyfriend possibly both attorneys, psychological evaluation which clearly states that the mother was coerced in the children and change of custody should be considered if she continued, she was utilizing the criminal system to advance her self in the divorce documented. I wouldn’t be surprised if her attorney was unethically aiding her through out no one is that deceptive knowing the loopholes. This firm has also been accused of stealing evidence from the evidence room to bolster their cases. They also made claims that he forced her to get pregnant with all the children, the father beat the grandfather? Wtf where’s all this evidence?. That he didn’t provide healthcare didn’t provide dental care. He neglected his children? Beat them if front of others? neglected everything in their life? NONE of these claims had any substance in fact the father presented evidence to the contrary and judges ignored…why you say CAUSE the pie was already decided who was getting their slice. Any person with two peas in their skull can decipher through this Are you kidding me with these claims? From the records all it looks like is that she chose to step out of the marriage had an affair( lack of
mental stability stability), and through guilt, and shame maybe ? and with the help of her attorney, create this monstrosity of a sci-fi fiction novel of this bad bad man. Truly feel sorry for the children she should’ve kept in her lane owned up to her own faults and not psychologically strangle her own children which will come to haunt them and her in the future
Hope he’s a very strong man to be there when the ceiling falls the kids need a lot of healing from the coercion I do say that the father should’ve changed attorneys earlier but probably couldn’t because they were knee-deep in the shit storm they created, and no one will take the case on
What role did Robert Horowitz play?
last article stated he was the initial therapist
They only bring him out when the children are marks.
“They only bring him out when the children are marks.“
He’s sinister along with cronies Adelman and Freedman. Adelman endorses his criminal conspirators- on record- how respected Robert Horwitz and Sue Coussineau are… he’s known them for years.
That says it all. Total bias by the judge.
How sad DiRubba has had to waste years and so much money thanks to this lousy corrupt CT court system. He and his children would have been so much better had matters been handled honestly and competently by the judge and others.
So much for the best interests of the children – not in CT family court, obviously.
