Connecticut Mother Wins Lawsuit Against K-9 Police Officer for False Arrest in Custody Feud

K-9 Officer Brenden Danaher (left) -- found his bark was loud, but a woman put the bite on him when she won $1.5 million from the CT taxpayers after the K9 cop hot caught lying to a judge.

A Connecticut divorced mother, arrested in 2017 for custodial interference, won a federal lawsuit this month against the Bloomfield Connecticut Police Department for false arrest and malicious prosecution. The police officer who wrote the fraudulent application for the arrest of Lauren Haidon is reportedly the son of CT Judge John A. Danaher, III.

A federal jury in Connecticut awarded Haidon $160,000 in compensatory damages and $1.34 million in punitive damages – finding Bloomfield K-9 Officer Brendan Danaher liable for harmful and malicious actions, and his superiors for grossly negligent behavior in not reining in or firing this lawless and incompetent officer of the law.

Lauren Haidon, falsely arrested, got even with a $1.5m federal lawsuit victory.

Allegations of Conspiracy and False Arrest Unveiled in Civil Trial

The civil trial revealed that K-9 Officer Danaher conspired with Haidon’s former husband, a former Connecticut prosecutor, and Court TV analyst Matthew Couloute Jr.

Haidon and Couloute divorced in 2015 and had a “Separation Agreement” approved by Hartford District Superior Court Judge Jorge Simon, which granted Haidon primary custody of the couple’s three-year-old daughter. He also required Couloute to pay child support, along with granting him visitation rights.

Since they both lived in Connecticut, their separation agreement required Haidon to get Couloute’s permission to relocate her daughter outside the state.

About a year after their divorce, Couloute left Connecticut for Atlanta, Georgia, and chose to stop making child support payments.

Haidon went on public assistance to compensate for the loss of support and then decided to save money on rent. She chose to temporarily relocate to her parents’ home in West Seneca, New York.

Haidon obtained his consent to take Sophia to New York and filed notice with the Connecticut Superior Court that she was temporarily relocating to West Seneca with her daughter and had the written consent of her ex-spouse, as per the Separation Agreement.

Couloute, on the other hand, now living in Georgia, was in violation of the Separation Agreement since he declined to pay child support.

When Haidon suggested legal remedies, he threatened her with arrest, informing her that as a former Connecticut prosecutor who knew judges and police, he could take Sophia away, just like he had done with his son from a former relationship – and she would never see her daughter again.

Matthew Couloute, a former prosecutor knows that winning is everything.

He meant what he said. Though living in Georgia, Couloute filed a motion for sole custody of Sophia in Connecticut court and added a motion for contempt alleging Haidon violated the Separation Agreement by bringing Sophia to New York.

While these motions were pending approval by a judge, Haidon took action in New York State Family Court to suspend Couloute’s child custody. On January 9, 2017, Judge Mary Carney signed a temporary court order suspending Couloute’s access to Sophia on the basis that he stopped paying child support for the child.

Couloute drove from Georgia to Connecticut to see Judge Danaher’s son, his good friend, Bloomfield K-9 Officer Brendan Danaher.

K-9 Officer Danaher, working for Couloute, contacted Haidon, commanding her, as he would to one of the fine dogs on his excellent K9 team, to bring the child back to Couloute in Connecticut because she violated the Separation Agreement, for she took her daughter out of the state without the consent of Couloute.

Haidon, who identifies as a mother and not a dog, refused and provided evidence to K-9 Officer Danaher of emails from Couloute consenting to his daughter’s temporary move to New York.

K-9 Oficer Brenden Danaher trains dogs and tries to tame mothers.,,,

After receiving the proof that she was not in violation of the Separation Agreement, K-9 Officer Danaher reported to Couloute, and the two men conspired to lie, albeit for a good cause, to secure her arrest and place four-year-old Sophia into the hands of Couloutte, removing a second mother from the life of her child.

Risky Lie

The clever father chose to put K9 Officer Danaher at a bit of a risk. He would have to lie to a judge. The basis of the arrest warrant – for which they needed a judge to sign off – was to tell a “little white one” that falsely stated that Couloute’s contempt motion against Haidon had already been signed by a judge – which it had not been.

In other words, lie to the arrest warrant judge about another judge having signed the contempt and custody motions.

They figured the arrest warrant judge would take the good word of K9 Officer Danaher, son of a judge and former prosecutor.

On January 12, 2017, K-9 Officer Danaher submitted a false arrest warrant application to Superior Court Justice Omar Williams for the arrest of Lauren Haidon for Custodial Interference in the First Degree based on the “little white one” that a family court judge had signed Couloute’s motions for contempt and sole custody, and that Haidon absconded with the child whose custody was not hers.

None of K9 Danaher’s superiors chose to investigate the perjurious arrest warrant application submitted to Judge Williams.

Relying on the integrity of the police who, after all, conduct the investigations, Judge Williams signed a warrant for Haidon’s arrest on January 24, 2017.

Judge Williams set bail for $10,000 and added conditions of release that required Haidon to obey the Separation Agreement – the one he had been falsely told that another judge had determined she had violated.

On February 8, 2017, the Connecticut State’s Attorney’s Office granted an Extradition Request permitting CT law enforcement to arrest Haidon in New York.

On February 14, 2017, Couloute filed an emergency order of custody in CT family court, requesting authorities to take Sophia from her mother and bring her to him to Connecticut.

The mother responded by filing a Motion to Dismiss Couloute’s emergency order of custody, and the Hartford Connecticut Superior Court granted temporary jurisdiction over custody proceedings to New York State Family Court.

Couloute’s emergency custody motion was heard before Judge Carney of New York State Family Court, Erie County. Haidon, fearing her arrest and loss of custody of her child, did not appear in court.

The Erie County Department of Social Services filed a Neglect Petition against Haidon. Judge Carney granted the petition on March 1, 2017, but instead of giving Couloute custody, she gave temporary custody to Haidon’s parents, but restricted the mother’s access to Sophia to three times a week for a few hours, supervised by Haidon’s father.

Haidon’s Ordeal and Its Impact

Despite the fact that she had to leave the home of her parents, Haidon breathed a sigh of relief, for at least Sophia was safe. Now she had to face the false arrest.

She turned herself in to authorities in Western New York on March 2, 2017, and was booked at the Erie County Holding Center and held overnight. On March 3, Haidon appeared in court in an orange jumpsuit, shackled around her ankles, hands, and waist, in front of her peers and family. She waived her extradition rights in court and agreed to turn herself in to the Bloomfield Connecticut police, which she did three days later, on March 6, 2017.

In Connecticut, Haidon was held in custody and consulted with a Connecticut attorney, Rachel Baird.

Haidon’s criminal attorney Rachel Baird chose to play hard ball with Bloomfield PD and demanded a hearing on the arrest warrant itself…

After Haidon explained she was never in violation of the Separation Agreement, which was the basis of her arrest, Baird advised Haidon that she could challenge K9 Officer Danaher’s affidavit in support of the application for a warrant for her arrest.

Baird filed a Notice of Intent to file a Franks Hearing – to challenge the truthfulness of factual statements made in an affidavit supporting the warrant – in the District of Hartford Superior Court on Haidon’s behalf on March 6, 2017. That same day, police released Haidon from Bloomfield, Connecticut police custody.

After being released, Haidon was required to travel to Connecticut every month to follow up with the unlawful Custodial Interference charge levied against her. On August 17, 2017, the charges levied against Haidon were terminated in her favor.

Couloute’s Past and Legal Actions

Due to the arrest and damage to Haidon’s reputation, the Connecticut Superior Court granted Couloute’s motion for primary physical custody on September 14, 2017. Sophia was taken from her grandparents’ home in New York and handed to Couloute. She lived in Georgia from September 2017 until June 2018 – when Haidon finally regained custody.

Haidonthen wisely chose top civil litigation lawyers – Marco Cercone Rupp Baase Pfalzgraf Cunningham LLC of Buffalo, NY and Benjamin J. Lehberger of Dilworth IP LLC of Trumbell, CT – to file a federal lawsuit in the US District Court of Connecticut in 2019 alleging false arrest. A trial was held this month. A federal jury heard it all, and decided that K9 Officer Danaher was false to the core, and awarded Haidon $1.5 million.

Lauren Haidon fought hard but to keep her freedom and her child safe.

Couloute’s Controversial Past

Matthew Couloute, who conspired with his friend K9 Officer Danaher to lie to a judge to get custody of his child and have the mother arrested, seems to have come out of this unscathed.

No media has reported this story.

This lack of media coverage is different from the media coverahe Couloute enjoyed during his marriage to Haidon.

His reputation was explored just months after their 2010 marriage when LiarsCheatersRUS.com published allegations made by his previous wife, Amanda Ryncarz, with whom Couloute broke up 12 days after their wedding, former girlfriend, professional roller-derby player ‘Malibu’ Stacey Blitsch, with whom he has a son and successfully won custody, depriving the mother of her parental rights, and other women he had known who felt abused and betrayed.

Among the postings criticizing Couloute were: “Cheated on ALL of ex-girlfriends. Lied and cheated his entire way through his 40 years of life,’ one post on LiarsCheatersRUs.com reads. ‘HE’S SCUM! RUN FAR AWAY!’

Another warned: ‘Our relationship didn’t last long, as I figured him out pretty quickly, but for others, BE FOREWARNED.’

Short and sweet – Couloute’s marriage to Amanda Ryncarz, lasted only 12 days.
Couloute’s tryst with Stacy Malibu Blitsch led to a son, whom the wily Cououlete won custody of – leaving Stacy disconsolate over the loss.

In response, Couloute filed a lawsuit against his exes and lost, which fueled media interest in the case. The Gothamist dubbed him the “Poster Boy for Cheating Men,” while the New York Post called him a Cyber-Slammed Cad.”

During the controversy, Haidon defended Couloute, choosing not to believe her new husband was anything less than he appeared – the soul of charm and consideration.

Shortly afterward, Couloute left Haidon and their child, leaving for the lush green landscapes of Atlanta, forgetting to pay around $100,000 in rent and bills. Then he stopped paying child support and sought custody, and the mother’s arrest.

Meanwhile, he goes unpunished for his complicity with K9 Officer Danaher, whose career, it is said, has gone to the dogs.

Matthew Couloute got what he wanted — not to pay child support. If he caused his wife a little inconvenience and torpedoed his police buddy’s career, they’ll get over it.

Couloute continues to work in Atlanta, and no doubt will seek out other women to bed and break, telling them how cruel Haidon, Ryncarz, ‘Malibu’ Blitsch and all the other women he ever knew were to him and how he was forced to fight back with his legal and extralegal skills.

He seems to have won most of his battles with women.

But Haidon, now a millionaire, wasn’t so easy to take down, and Sophia lives with her mom, which was all she wanted.

Still Coulette won after all — he got out of paying child support, which appears to have been his only goal from the start.

K-9 Officer Brenden Danaher (left) — found his bark was loud, but a woman put the bite on him when she won $1.5 million from the CT taxpayers after the K9 cop hot caught lying to a judge.

Hey Ned Lamont and Susan Bysiewicz you are supposed to be protecting the people of Connecticut. Why are you not investigating Connecticut family court? You have already been sued once. You are allowing the Connecticut residents to be harmed. Attorney general William Tong you have been contacted enough. You are causing irreparable harm by ignoring what is happening in your state.

  1. Growing number of single father households has become a growing health priority. 2022. Priority means more money. The continued focus on the perception of single mother household with questionable statistics. There is a lot of buying and purchasing of the custody of children for fathers. It doesn’t look like it is going to end anytime soon. There is much discriminatory information and funding biasing family court. The woman in the United States are completely unaware of it. It’s beyond family court and until we fix what is happening in the government and the war waged against women effecting family court. Women will continue to loose custody until Congress is charged and voted out many of these elected officials.

There is much misinformation in regards to single father vs single mother household. The problems children face in a single parent household are the same. The difference is the education and socioeconomic status of men vs women . The medical research has found that all the issues children face in a fatherless household are true for a motherless households. With the difference being the needs of the parents..With the financial resources being one of the biggest differences.. Pub med. Health and human services has increased resources and attention to fathers. The family court judges continue to be educated on information that is bias and focused on one gender and not on the children. Focused on a gender that appears to be less in need of financial assistance. Greatly effecting the family court system and legislation. White men of older age and higher economic status are the ones being granted custody at a higher rate. Who is the fatherhood initiative helping in family court? Not appearing to be children, the minority community, or the people in need of assistance. The white man with fatter wallets. Just look at the majority of cases in the Frank report.

Lamont fired the previous head of the department of public health. Settled a lawsuit with her and possed a gag order. Tong sealed the case. The health and human services funding goes through the department of public health. The FBI should have the gag order lifted and the case unsealed. Let’s get to the bottom of things.

In 2022 judge Alice Bruno was splashed all over the Hartford current. Yet they won’t give the names of the recently suspended judges. Retired judge Muck thinks judges should be protected by like minded individuals filing complaints. If a judge will engage in poor uneithical conduct in one case they will do it in another. Poor protection of the Connecticut residents. Double standards. They protect themselves.

Can someone explain why the lawyer isn’t disbarred and the cop isn’t fired? And why neither of them are facing criminal charges? I believe this falls into the category of “felony.” Everyone will know it’s the cops father protecting them or someone else higher up in the system if nothing happens to them. Sad thing is the lawyer hated his ex more than he loved his kid because he scarred her for life.

As of January 2021. $113.5 million dollars in arrears for children support was reported by the United States. Bad for economic growth and development. There is a reason child support enforcement is involved in the fatherhood initiative. There is a reason for gender bias legislation . There is a reason to push for joint custody even in abuse cases. There is a reason for the court system and the state to allow these things to happen. There is a good reason there are no safety precautions in fatherhood legislation. It is the overall plan for welfare reform. The economic growth and development. There are financial insensitive to place children in harms way.

85% of men are ordered to pay child support. For every dollar a man makes a woman is paid.78 cents, typically. The pay gap between men and women has barely changed in 2 decades. Child care cost have skyrocketed with less financial assistance. The continued insistence that women are not the main caretaker of children and is outdated is false in many these cases. Just look at the Ambrose case. . Equal pay has not really changed in two decades Neither has the maternal role in childrens lives despite entering the workforce. Women standing up for themselves and their children is not toxic feminity. Equality is all in the choosen perspective. Men unfortunately are the majority for the responsibility for these arrears. It appears the family court system through funding like access and visitation grants may be trying to reduce this significant cost. Forcing 50/50 custody even when it is not safe or appropriate.to reduce the arrears. . This dude being an attorney knows the system. Knows the dirty players to go to. Causalities along the way including his own children. Perhaps to get out of child support obligations and or using his daughter to hurt her mother.

So when Senitor Martin Looney stated in the Connecticut mirror was helping to close the wage gap between women and minorities. The statistics Don’t support that. I wonder what he knows about the welfare reform act and the economic development of the country? The arrears? The majority of Americans feel the government is failing people in poverty. That’s been demonstrated by the many Americans driven into poverty in the family courts. It’s seems the welfare reform act greatly effecting family court should be completely overhauled. Responsible fatherhood has lead to billions of dollars in debt. Appears to be taking children away from their mothers to fix the problem.

“The Democrats have put the rights of criminals ahead of police personnel when it comes to qualified immunity and other policy changes, they have enacted in the last few years and have exposed our sworn officers to unprecedented liability that has caused many to alter their procedures.” Candelora. Connecticut Mirror Sept. 26, 2022.

The state of Connecticut has a long tumultuous history of confirmed and allege corruption within its government and related agencies. Many evidenced based complaints have gone without appropriate investigation. There is reason to believe that crime statistics are false. False and failure to arrest are being reported and argued within your state. Your judicial systems both criminal and civil appear to be geared to the financial gain of the state. Based on funding. Failure to protect the rights and safety of the citizens in your state. All genders, religion and races. With all due respect the state has failed to provide safety and justice to it citizens which should be a number one priority. Good police officers committed to the public like the Newington police chief is forced out trying to clean up enteral problems. Such as the Bloomfield eternal problem highlighted in this story. The states continued ignore enteral systematic failures. It’s disheartening and frightening that the safety and welfare of the public is not discussed. From the police departments, DCF, family, criminal courts, Health and Human, The department of education, Department of labor, et cetera.

The overturning of convictions is a slap in the face to the prosecutor’s office and sends a message to the public that crime is tolerated and excused in the state of Connecticut. Our government officials like Senator Richard Blumenthal, Professor Sarah Russel and others appear along with Connecticut courts family and criminal want to give safe harbors to pedophiles, and sexual abusers. Sexual assault victims and domestic violence victims are being criminalized in your state. Their children are being held ransom. The organizations designed to assist and protect the citizens Americans attempting to live a safe peaceful life believing they are living in a society devoted to freedom and a just legal system are realizing that your state is a nightmare. People are placed in categories and ignored by a number of political leaders. Laws are being passed to protect criminals including ones in your employment. For what appears to be funding. Your hearings with the public are rushed and people are brushed off. The Connecticut systems are not transparent to the public and the family court system is hiding its crimes behind immunity. Children are being used as an excuse to shield these people from harm and wrongdoing. Beyond immunity and more money what are you people planning to do about it? Your state is becoming dangerous by the day, and a disgrace to the people living in it. You tarnish the reputations of people complaining, toss innocent people in jail, let guilty people go unpunished. Innocents, justice and lives are being hijacked and taken. You are holding onto a surplus of money and don’t appear bothered to figure it out.

We would like you to clean up the state government and related agencies prior to discussing immunity for these people.

Sincerely, The Average Citizen

The billion-dollar Fatherhood project. Is federal funding being presented as a minority project being exploited? A project that is helping abusive fathers of all color’s religions and economic status. Are white women targeted by Health and Human services as they attempt to educate and empower minority women? Greatly affected by the welfare reform and fatherhood funding. Labeling of women in general as gatekeepers /alienators to assist with fathers who can’t or refuse to pay child support? Using access and visitation grants to provide money to the legal battle? Minority mothers facing custody flips without representation because legal aid is partnered with the fatherhood initiative. Are the white women of health and human services intentionally targeting white women like Betsy Keller who may own a designer handbag? So, Betsy and other white women will not be able to educate and assist minority mothers on the state legal system and advocate for change as a united front? Will white women in health and human services be affected by the change through funding? Unable to use funding to visit the expensive New Port shoreline? Will it affect the violent offender program if the gatekeeper/ alienation hypothesis running the courts is no longer used to flip custody in Connecticut family court? Will the overturning of the convictions help fathers in family court?

Perhaps Senitor Gary Winfield would like to discuss these issues? Judiciary committee. How the family court is effecting the economic development of minority women. How the fatherhood funding, prison programs , access and visitation grant and parental alienation are effecting the minority mothers in Connecticut. The reduction of public assistance to women. The reduction of voca and vowa to domestic violence victims in the minority community. The arrears and it’s effect on women in the minority community. Is he aware of the issue facing the minority women in the community including DCF? Is he aware that the wadge gap hasn’t changed in two years? I have never heard him address any of these important issues effecting women greatly.

Including harming some father’s with outrageous child support benefiting the system. Using hypothesis, the AFCC to lower the nations dept because the federal welfare reform act appears to be an overall failure. Leaving our nation to pay . Blaming women of all colors, religion and background. Placing children at risk to do so. Forcing 50/50 in all situations cause collecting child support for both mothers and fathers has become a financial burden. Many Attorneys greatly rewarded for helping out.

Could officers like this idiot be misusing this? Could it have been used to hand out bogus tickets? Community relations. We would all love to trust the police departments. The swat team chasing Karen Riorden. Many court litigants report the misuse of the police department. Are federal funds being misused in situations like this. Rape victims are forced to recant and charged with false reporting. Yet these people do not. Did Lamont do something about the conviction of the young woman from Sacred heart University? One of the young men held another woman by gun point. Was the young woman a victim of malicious prosecution to cover up the violent crimes accusing in Connecticut? Was the money used to go after Paul Boyne? Was he a target because he was reporting on cases like this? Was Paul Boyne a threat to funding to the state of Connecticut more than the judges? Uncovering possible misuse of government funding to falsely go after inecent people targeted by the currupt players in Connecticut? Is Connecticut protecting criminals to pocket money to balance budgets, benefits and retirement funds? A surplus to be used to go to Newport Rhode Island? Is safety and well-being and welfare funds being used to help the politicians and wealthy people in Connecticut while the less fortunate are used and abused by preditory Attorneys? Preditory AFCC members? Hopefully the Frank Report will unravel. Thanks Frank for providing information and a platform to bring information to the public who appears at great risk as selective few are rewarded.

As the number of single father households has increased by 76%. The suicide rates of children and young adults has increased by 64%. But this information will never be spoken about by the politicians attempting to lower the arrears. Connecticut is hidding the number of children hospitalized in custody dispute suffering from suicidal ideation forced to live with or forced access with a parent they don’t feel safe with. The MOU is solely focused on the fathers. Ignoring the suicide rates of children. So is the legislation attached to funding. The health and human services funding keeps rolling. The hypothesis of parental alienation and reunification therapy continues to forced in the Family law courts. There is more lives at stake then in the domestic violence statistics. The country keeps pushing the fatherhood initiative. The effects of the loss of a mother are being ignored and we continue to blame women for the financial problems of the country. For what appears to the forcing of fatherhood to to lower the national cost. Valuing men over women for the economic development of the country.

July 2023. 22 %of Connecticut high School students have seriously considered suicide. Where is the statics and reporting on children hospitalized for suicide thoughts during forced custody and visitation? It’s not just the number of domestic violence incidents. These numbers should be available to the public. How many were involved in reunification therapy?

This dude is a pillar of fatherhood. It’s all about the child support. Prime example of the Connecticut legal system and related agencies in Connecticut. So glad she found an Attorney dedicated to the case. They are hard to find.

The attorneys for the Plaintiff did an amazing job. They are hard to find and fought for justice. Where is the media for this federal verdict? Let’s keep covering up the corruption.

Couloute and Danaher go way back to when Couloute was a prosecutor with Danaher’s father. Unfortunately the jury couldn’t hear just how corrupt this case actually was. Couloute has gotten away with too much for too long. He has two kids with two different women, and in each case it’s all about punishing the mothers via the kids. In each case he used his connections to continue to abuse the mothers. Anyone that knows Couloute or the mothers know that Couloute is a danger to society. He should not be around humans, let alone kids. But his internal relationships with Reuben Bradford, Dan Malloy, Ryan mcguigan, the Danaher’s, Anne dranginis, colangelo, etc have allowed a predator to carry out vile acts via the “justice system.” Just read the grievances on the judicial site, and all of the disciplinary history. Anyone he comes in contact with he uses, abuses, then destroys. He was run out of CT because so many clients were after him- he was posing as a criminal defense attorney. CT has buried many crimes for this guy who is nothing but a danger and liability. He should be in jail. He filed a false police report as an attorney! Where are the consequences for that? Where are the consequences for Officer Danaher? Daddy will protect them both. Sad that the innocent children are never protected. It’s always the predators in Corrupticut that get protection.

Enough is enough. Start prosecuting people. Oh that’s right, Connecticut doesn’t want to spend the money to prosicute and inconsiderate. It would increase the crime statistics . It’s claims to have done something incredible with the reduction of crime in the last decade. Russell wants everyone let out of jail. Connecticut is errasing criminal records. Connecticut has gone to the criminals.

This case needs big media coverage. Sophia and all the other children who were snatched up by Connecticut deserve to have a voice. The media needs to give them that voice because Connecticut will silence everyone involved.

Finally justice served. Of course Colette gets off but at least he’ll not bother this mother or child again.

Family court scam exposed. A law intended to protect parents is weaponized against them. Mothers have been hunted down and threatened with custodial interference when the motion cops have no idea of the criteria for custodial interference. Because no law actually applies in CT.

Miraculous ending. Praying this costly verdict will prevent other police thugs (Madison and shoreline cops- are you listening?) from harassing innocent parents.

He has the mother back in court in NYS for sole custody w/supervised visitation. He’s pro se because no attorney is as smart as Coulette. BACK IN FRONT OF THE SAME JUDGE THAT PUT THE MOTHER IN JAIL. Can we say CONFLICT??? Files every year against her. Doesn’t pay child support. Owes her parents over $5k in child support arrears from 2017 when he had her sent to jail. Where’s the warrant for that? Why does no one stop this dude? He doesn’t work- I misspoke- his job is preying on women who can pay his way through life and assist in the persecution of the mothers of his children. Again, where’s the warrant for back child support? Why no restraining order after this verdict? Where are the criminal charges against Coulette for filing a false police report? Perjury? Why is he immune? Hmmmm……there’s more to his story and why he has such immunity. Bloomfield is covering up far more than this for him. Someone needs to look deeper into his immunity.

Finally! Justice for CT parents!!!
thank you FR for taking on what no one else will! Amazing!

mainstream media won’t publicize in it. You are incredible! The tide has turned.

CT courts and abusers like Colette and Ambrose have used custodial interference to abuse their ex’s and dominate their children.

they are scoundrels!! You are a warrior Frank Parlato and we are eternally grateful!

Couloute and Danaher sound like real winners. Scum.

“Mainstream news” is probably most at fault.
“Mainstream news” is probably most at fault.

For the past 40 years, mainstream news outlets haven’t reported the state and federal crimes committed in family courts. The crimes continue, the corruption continues and victims of the family court system — including police officers who get sucked into “family court” cases — continue to be harmed.

We simply can’t keep hoping and expecting mainstream news to protect the public.

We need to work together to gather the evidence of crimes and corruption in family courts and give that evidence to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of the Inspector General (HHS-OIG), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

I hope victims of family court psychologists are organized and working with law enforcement already. If anyone is addressing the family court crimes of Robert Horowitz, Sidney Horowitz and/or Bruce Freedman, please let us know.

The most-used Connecticut “family court evaluators” organized the racketeering in that state in the 1970s. In one case, Sidney Horowitz told a judge he couldn’t know whether or not substantiated sexual abuse occurred. Even though many professionals substantiated the abuse, Gerard Adelman and Robert Horwitz tried to groom the child to be with the perpetrator. Bruce Freedman told the judge even though the victim and the mother believed the sexual abuse occurred; the disclosures were substantiated; and, the mother was “above average” in intelligence with no mental or emotional disorders… Freedman diagnosed the victim as “brainwashed” — without ever meeting the victim.

Did Freedman believe Christianity brainwashed the mother and the child?

Why do Bruce Freedman, Sidney Horowitz, Gerard Adelman and Robert Horwitz think sexual abuse of children is acceptable?

Someone told the mother to file a complaint with the American Psychological Association. She filed the complaint and the APA rejected the complaint. Someone else told the mother filing the APA complaint was a waste of time because the APA is a private organization in which all APA members do whatever they want to do — with no oversight and no accountability.

Most Americans think “psychologists” must be good, smart people who always help. Most people who never experienced the hell of family courts might have a better understanding of what the organizers of “family courts” did to children and families since the 1960s if they simply look at what the organizers of “public schools” did since the 1960s. Frogs in boiling water from the 1960s to this year … in public schools, children are forced to learn how to be more sexually aware and active. In family court cases, children are forced to live it.

Maybe someone at The APA knows the answers to these questions:

With virtually no oversight and no accountability, how many “family court” “therapists” use Neurolinguistic Programming as Nancy Salzman did in “NXIVM”?

Why is there a statue of Pan on the main road in Greenwich, CT?

Why were there statues of naked children in various poses in the courtyard next to Heibel and Roeder’s office?

Why was there a statue of a phallic symbol on the main road in Middletown?

Which laws, philosophies and religions inform and guide “family court” practices?

Here’s the APA policy:

Complaints Regarding APA Members

APA has made changes to its adjudication program to better serve individuals who believe they have been harmed by a psychologist. Our focus now will be on providing information on other potential avenues for resolution that have a greater ability to take a desired action against an unethical psychologist. We only accept complaints against an APA member psychologist if there is no alternative forum to hear the complaint. If another forum takes an action against the member, the APA can review the matter at that time.

It’s been rumored that East Haven is not the place to go. Red taping the complaints. Instead they investigate the people complaining. File complaints and get put on a list. Disgruntled litigant.

The people of every state have a right to that data — names redacted would be fine.

For example:

  1. How many victims gave FBI offices information about actionable crimes in family courts?
  2. How many of those actionable crimes involved the same judges, lawyers and evaluators?
  3. What did FBI offices do with that information?

That creep had other more nefarious things on his mind that were substantiated. He also wanted to further abuse her. His miscreant pals in Ct judicial and thin blue line of police who are as unethical and predatory as him, had bigger plans for the kid.

About the Author

Frank Parlato is an investigative journalist.

His work has been cited in hundreds of news outlets, like The New York Times, The Daily Mail, VICE News, CBS News, Fox News, New York Post, New York Daily News, Oxygen, Rolling Stone, People Magazine, The Sun, The Times of London, CBS Inside Edition, among many others in all five continents.

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. This was ironic, as many credit Parlato as one of the primary architects of his arrest and the cratering of the cult he founded.

Parlato is a consulting producer and appears in TNT's The Heiress and the Sex Cult, which premiered on May 22, 2022. Most recently, he consulted and appeared on Tubi's "Branded and Brainwashed: Inside NXIVM," which aired January, 2023.
