Shackles in Arizona for Deportable Aliens? Connecticut AG Tong Silent on Shackles in Family Court in His Own State

April 9, 2025
Connecticut Attorney General William Tong is wroth over deportation. flights but quite ok with parents going to debtors prison in his state.

Avelo, a low-cost airline with taxpayer support from Connecticut, will begin flying deportation charters for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security out of Arizona on May 12. This has disturbed Connecticutt Attorney General William Tong.  He threatened Avelo that Connecticut might consider revoking its agreement to provide a $2 million revenue guarantee and a two-year freeze on aviation fuel tax for the low budget airline – if they profit from deporting illegal aliens in Arizona.

Constitutional and Civil Rights Activist Peter Szymonik saw a touch of hypocrisy there.

By Peter Szymonik

So this is rich.

From the CT Post:

“New Haven — Connecticut Attorney General William Tong sent a strongly worded letter to Avelo Airlines founder and CEO Andrew Levy Tuesday, seeking assurances that deportation charter flights Avelo plans to run from Arizona won’t violate the rights of immigrants. Tong’s letter seeks assurances that Avelo won’t shackle deportees — particularly children — and that the flights will not be used to separate children from their parents or to deport immigrants without a valid deportation order, among other issues.”

But when AG Tong is made aware that “family” court judges are placing parents in shackles in his state’s broken and corrupt “family” courts, for the “crime” of not paying millionaire attorneys fast enough or to their liking, or to shake them down and force them to liquidate their children’s college funds and retirement accounts under threat of imprisonment — in unlawful debtor’s prisons — that’s just fine to AG Tong.

AG Tong wrote These are flights separating parents from their children These are flights where peoplemen women and children are shackled in handcuffs waist chains and leg irons

But when AG Tong is made aware that sociopathic “family” court judges are routinely separating children from their parents and family members for no reason in his state other than for state and divorce industry profit and greed — that’s just fine to AG Tong.

Judge Adelman the dean of family court destroyers of families

But when our “family” court judges and state agencies, including his own office, flagrantly violate parents’ fundamental and federally recognized rights — that’s just fine to AG Tong.

AG Tong: Clean your own house first before you cast any stones.

Beyond hypocritical and disgusting.

Editor’s Note:

Connecticut Attorney Ed Nusbaum
Connecticut predatory attorney Ed Nusbaum has stripped families of their wealth for decades

In Connecticut, family court is not abusing deportable aliensThe family courts in Connecticut target citizens. They don’t protect families. They don’t safeguard children. They use them as leverage. Custody becomes currency. Visitation becomes punishment. The game isn’t justice. It’s money.

Family court throws parents in jail – not for hurting their children—but for failing to pay lawyers fast enough—million-dollar lawyers, billing $800 an hour. Judges order parents to empty their retirement accounts and their kids’ college savings, force the sale of their homes, or else.

No jury trial. Just jail – via contempt.

The point is: AG Tong wants to protect families from being torn apart by ICE flights. But he has nothing to say when judges essentially terminate parental rights in family court, without a finding of unfitness.

AG Tong says deporting people who came to the USA illegally is an outrage. But in Connecticut, parents lose their children without a trial. They’re gagged by court orders, threatened with contempt if they speak out. And when they can’t pay–when they’ve sold their house, drained their savings, taken out loans– they’re locked in jail cells a “debtor’s prison.” All on the watch of the state.

AG Tong tells Avelo to honor public safety and “the rule of law.”

He should try doing the same. There’s a broom waiting in his own house.

Supporters allege that Flynn’s disappearance is a result of political retaliation, orchestrated by state officials, including a Biden-appointed U.S. District Judge favored by Senators Blumenthal and Murphy, who has ignored pleas and habeas petitions challenging Flynn’s confinement.

Is the “radical left” in Connecticut too?

Is there a more accurate way to describe those who ignored what Kent Mawhinney did in the Dulos case?

“Radical Left Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser ignores Illegals committing Violent Crimes like Rape and Murder in his State and, instead, jailed Tina Peters, a 69-year-old Gold Star mother who worked to expose and document Democrat Election Fraud,”

For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence–on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day.

It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations.

Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed.

Tong terror. William Tong is abusing his power. He’s a threat not only to the residents in Connecticut but the entire United States. He doesn’t want Doge in Connecticut. Tong is not saving the American people, he’s covering his own ass. He wants to put an airline out of business for working with the federal government? Tong is waisting valuable tax payer dollars on his political crusade. Minewhile bodies are found through out the state and neighboring Rhode Island. 68 pound men are setting fire to escape the hell they are living in because DCF is incompetent. Children are trafficed out of group homes. Pushing chemical castration on children who’s brain is not fully developed.

It could be that over the course of the past few decades, a few judges lawyers and government employees arranged for judicial privilege, judicial discretion, judicial immunity and specifically orchestrated case law to let Connecticut family court judges, lawyers and accomplices Do What They Wilt.

Everyone should note that $800 per hour was the great Gary Cohen’s hourly rate prior to the pandemic. His current rate is $950 per hour; a small price to pay and well worth it if you are serious about getting justice for yourself in CT family court.

This is exactly how the United States will eventually break apart. Liberal judges and AG’s hypocritically interfere in national affairs they have no right to interfere with. It would be one thing if the CT attorney general is acting on behalf of illegal aliens in Connecticut, but he is trying to act on behalf of illegal aliens situated in a different state across the county. This is ridiculous.

As far as the corrupt CT family court goes, the citizens of that state and victims of that court need to demand that Kash Patel and Pam Bondi investigate that RICO racket, and bring federal oversight to CT state courts since they are irredeemably corrupt and violate basic constitutional rights.

Gerald Adelman, Robert Horwitz and others were found to be on the Board of the AFCC which was run as a business through CT Courts!!! And what was done at the end of the investigation into GAL and Family Court Racketeering was proven? Nothing. AG Tong asked these two criminals to step down from their position on the Board of the AFCC. The AFCC could no longer be run through the judiciary!!

The judges should have been cleaned out then!! Instead it was buried. Laws that are not followed were implemented– only to be “superseded” but family law attorney contracts. It’s a joke. It’s an embarrassment and when the public finds out who and what kind of people actually run CT, they’ll be hell to pay. That time is coming.

Violations of the first amendment and gag orders to conceal judicial misconduct and attorney misconduct will cease. The democratic leaders have failed the people and most importantly, abuse and victimize our innocent children. They are criminals.

Can anyone provide documents and sources to prove:

  1. Which state and/or federal office asked those two (?) criminals to step down from their position(s) on the Board of the AFCC.
  2. The AFCC could no longer be run through the judiciary!! (Gerard Adelman, CT AFCC, Inc. Director and Robert Horwitz, CT AFCC, Inc. IRS Respondant still pass lucrative cases to and from former CT AFCC, Inc. collaborators.)
  3. The judges should have been cleaned out then!! Instead it was buried. (Besides The Hartford Courant spiking that news, which individuals in state and/or federal offices purposely hid that news from the public?)

Judge Jane Grossman perhaps holds the record for trafficking of children through family court. Countless numbers of children have been forced from their loving parents by a “no contact” order often disguised in court orders but implemented by GAL’s who conspire with family court attorneys to isolate children from one parent and deliver full legal and physical custody to the other parent. Often based on sealed custody reports by a psychologist–with no medical license. Jessica Biren Caverly is has been the preferred cash cow used to get this done. SHe’s made millions– often untaxed revenue delivered to her– No insurance ever accepted by her office. This is true of her family court practice as well as her thiving business within DCF where parental rights are terminated and kids put up for adoption.
Either way, there is no finding of a medical doctor of unfitness.
Parents are brutalized.
Children are traumatized and abused.
Judges like Adelman support these tactics referring to the isolation of CT parents and children as a form of “Shock therapy”–
Justifying court ordered trauma and abuse upon Connecticut’s children.

AG Tong– be a man of your word– You said no one is above the law. In CT the judges and family court attorneys operate above the law everyday, and parents and children are the victims and have been for decades.

You know this. Susan Skipp and thousands of CT parents came forward in 2013. Nothing has changed. Child trafficking too lucrative in our small state of complete corruption.

This excerpt from 51 pages of testimony submitted for the January 9, 2014 Connecticut Family Court Task Force Public Hearing on Child Custody 
seems to indicate that Mr. Tong might not be “a man of his word”:

… When Paul Boyne began to raise concerns about vendor payments showing that AFCC affiliated Judicial Branch vendors appointed to his case had fraudulently billed the State for services they didn’t provide properly (if at all), the court issued orders effectively severing his parental rights. …

How many taxpayer dollars were spent prosecuting Mr. Boyne so far?

Mr. Tong co-chaired the Connecticut House Judiciary Committee from 2015 to 2019.

Did Mr. Tong share testimony from the 2014 “family court task force” with the New Haven DOJ’s “public corruption investigation” task force in 2015?

If not, why not?

Mr. Tong is now Connecticut’s Attorney General. If Mr. Tong hasn’t shared the above excerpt with those 51 pages of information with Mr. Doyle yet, someone should ask Mr. Doyle to read that testimony ASAP:

https://www.cga.ct.gov/jud/tfs/20131001_Task%20Force%20to%20Study%20Legal%20Disputes%20Involving%20the%20Care%20and%20Custody%20of%20Minor%20Children/20140109/Testimony%20-%20Stevenson,%20Anne.pdf

Some of Mr. Doyle’s recent statements to the Court in his case against Paul Boyne are about his office accessing all of Mr. Boyce’s communications while in Connecticut prisons.

If Mr. Doyle hasn’t yet read the following testimony from a mother who lost her child to predators in Connecticut family courts over a decade ago

… My case began as what I thought would be an amicable divorce, even though my husband had chosen to commit violence against me and members of my family throughout the marriage. When my son disclosed that his father was touching his genitals, [1] and anal tearing appeared after a visit with his father, I sought medical attention and reported to the authorities. I expected that a competent investigation would follow, and I would get some answers about what had happened or didn’t, and that if my son had been the victim of a crime, he would have, as all American crime victims are entitled to, protection from contact with the perpetrator. What I didn’t know was that this would enter us into a black system where state agencies contract with each other [2] to maximize HHS funding by increasing violent offenders’ access to their victims when the relationship is male parent and child. …

who decided to not share that information with Mr. Doyle’s office? The Hartford Courant? Mr. Tong’s office? Patrick Carroll III’s office?

Mr. Doyle can read that testimony.

He should read that testimony — and he must read that testimony. If We the People were governing ourselves, someone would officially announce, “Mr. Doyle shall read that testimony.” which would make him read it:

https://www.cga.ct.gov/jud/tfs/20131001_Task%20Force%20to%20Study%20Legal%20Disputes%20Involving%20the%20Care%20and%20Custody%20of%20Minor%20Children/20140109/Testimony%20-%20Kelley,%20Sunny.pdf

The Hartford Courant’s total lack of meaningful investigation and effective reporting of the crimes committed by Connecticut’s family court system for the past 40 years makes it very difficult for We the People to govern ourselves.

Fortunately, Andrew Kreig’s book, Spiked: How Chain Management Corrupted America’s Oldest Newspaper offers a few clues about the local and international fascism (fascism = government + private corporations) that’s harmed and misled so many for so long.

What do today’s Hartford Courant reporters, state AG office employees and state public defender employees know about the HHS/Jessica Pearson/AFCC profitable human experiments in the corrupted Connecticut family courts?

Is “Dr.” Sidney Horowitz tracking outcomes of his state and federally-funded family court experiments? Which office stores the data to track the outcomes?

To govern ourselves without the help of individuals such as Elon Musk, we’ll need mainstream news outlets such as The Hartford Courant to report facts about the executive, legislative and judicial branch offices. We’ll also need more wisdom and more courage.

It looks like someone shut down ShalomGirl’s YouTube Channel after she posted this conversation with Wayne McRoy:

The hypocrisy of William Tong.

The hypocrisy of Tong is an insult to the thousands of families impacted by corrupt CT family courts.
AG Tong is fully aware of the “no-contact” orders put in place by family court judges based on the whim of a gal or the recommendation of a “sealed” fraudulent evaluation by a single psychologist- NOT a medical doctor as required by law for the court to rely upon.

Our children have their mother or father ripped out of their lives never to be seen or heard from for years of ever. This is the calculated, sadistic pattern of cruelty inflicted upon innocent citizens merely seeking a divorce. Our children are a commodity. Our constitutional rights and due process are violated daily. No cameras or recordings permitted in family court- and no jury. For if there were a jury, these violations of Justice and inhumane treatment would cease immediately.

AG Tong knows all about this as does the judiciary committee that is comprised of attorneys. The wolves guard the henhouse. Tong is acting like a man of the people when he is turning a blind eye to kidnapping, child trafficking, larceny, and abuse and harassment of innocent parents.

Thank you to Peter and to frankreport for exposing the truth.

“GODDAMMIT, FRANK! You and your goddamn articles about immigrants! It’s always the same damn condescending crap, isn’t it?! You write about people coming here, their hands probably waving a little as they try to explain themselves in a new language, and you turn it into some kind of goddamn spectacle! ‘Oh, look at the funny ways they talk with their hands!’ You probably make it sound like some kind of goddamn circus act! And then you get to the goddamn judges, FRANK! You probably write about them with this same goddamn detached, superior tone, like they’re some kind of unimpeachable goddamn authority! ‘Oh, the honorable Judge So-and-So, just trying to uphold the law!’

BULLSHIT, FRANK! I’ve seen these goddamn judges! They’re just as flawed, just as dirty, just as prone to their own goddamn biases as anyone else! They probably sit there, watching these immigrants, maybe making their own goddamn judgments based on nothing but stereotypes and prejudice! You probably sanitize all that in your goddamn articles, FRANK, painting them as some kind of blindfolded justice-wielding saints! Well, guess what, FRANK? I’ve seen the way the goddamn system works! It’s rigged, it’s unfair, and these goddamn judges are often right in the thick of it, making goddamn life-altering decisions based on goddamn prejudice! So put down your goddamn pen, FRANK, and maybe for once, write about the goddamn TRUTH about these goddamn dirty judges instead of your usual patronizing crap!”
