Christopher Ambrose is suing me for $5 million, claiming I defamed him by reporting on his fraudulent conduct.
I also reported that he had his daughter’s Social Security card. That fact is now at the center of a multi-state government fraud that two state agencies have independently confirmed.
On March 19, 2026, the Connecticut Department of Children and Families sent a Contact Request Notice to his daughter, Mia Ambrose, aged 19.
The subject: “You or someone in your household received benefits from more than one state in the same month.”
Connecticut listed Mia as a “Duplicate Issuance Individual.”
Benefits had been issued in her name in Connecticut. She was simultaneously receiving — or applying for — benefits in Florida.
Connecticut Caught the Fraud
Connecticut gave her ten days to provide proof of Florida residency or lose her benefits.
The next day, March 20, 2026, the Florida Department of Children and Families sent its own letter to Mia Ambrose. Her application for food assistance, filed March 4, 2026, was approved. Florida approved $268 for March 2026 and $298 per month through August 2026.
Mia Ambrose lives in Florida. She applied for her own benefits in Florida. She did not apply for Connecticut benefits or authorize anyone to enroll her in a Connecticut household benefits program.
She said so in a sworn affidavit.
He Had Her Social Security Card
Christopher Ambrose had been withholding Mia’s Social Security card and identity documents. Mia states in her sworn declaration filed in federal proceedings that he had her documents.
Someone enrolled Mia as a member of Christopher Ambrose’s household in Connecticut. Someone used her Social Security number to do it. Someone collected government benefits in her name for more than a year without her knowledge or consent.
The person was her father.
Connecticut flagged a duplicate — benefits flowing to Mia Ambrose in Connecticut while Mia Ambrose was simultaneously applying for benefits in Florida under her own name, at her own address, on her own initiative.
Two states. One Social Security number.
The Sworn Affidavit
On March 16, 2025, Christopher Ambrose submitted a financial affidavit to the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. He was seeking in forma pauperis status — a poverty exemption allowing him to file his lawsuit against Dr. Bandy Lee without paying the $405 filing fee.
To obtain IFP status, you must swear, under penalty of perjury, that you cannot afford court costs.
In that affidavit, he listed Mia as a member of his household. More dependents meant a larger household. A larger household painted a picture of a man stretched thin, supporting children, unable to pay basic court fees.
Mia was not living with him. She was in Florida. She had not authorized him to list her as a dependent. She had not authorized him to use her Social Security number.
The Connecticut benefits and the federal poverty affidavit told the same false story: Mia lived with her father in Connecticut. She was his dependent. He supported her.
Mia filed a sworn declaration in the federal proceedings — signed under penalty of perjury. In it, she stated that she did not live with her father in Connecticut. She stated that he had not been supporting her financially. She stated that he had not been paying for her food or other expenses. She stated that what her father swore in his poverty affidavit was false.
At the time, that was one daughter’s sworn word against her father’s sworn word.
Now the Connecticut Department of Children and Families flagged Mia as a duplicate-issuance individual — benefits flowing to her in Connecticut while she lived in Florida. The Florida Department of Children and Families approved her independent application based on her Florida address.
Two government agencies have confirmed what Mia swore to: she was not a member of her father’s Connecticut household.
The state of Connecticut flagged the fraud.
The Crimes
The statutes implicated are serious. Identity theft under 18 U.S.C. § 1028 carries up to 15 years. Aggravated identity theft under 18 U.S.C. § 1028A adds a mandatory two-year consecutive sentence when identity theft occurs during a felony — the judge cannot waive it. Document servitude under 18 U.S.C. § 1592 — withholding identity documents to control another person — is a federal trafficking statute. SNAP fraud under 7 U.S.C. § 2024 carries up to 20 years and a $250,000 fine. Perjury under 18 U.S.C. § 1621 carries five years. Wire fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1343 carries twenty. Connecticut adds state welfare fraud charges under CGS § 53a-119.
Prosecutors decide whether to charge. The evidence comes from Mia’s sworn declaration, the Connecticut Department of Children and Families, and the Florida Department of Children and Families.
What This Is
Christopher Ambrose is suing me for $5 million for reporting on his conduct in the Connecticut family court.
The man demanding $5 million for alleged defamation used his daughter’s stolen identity to collect food stamps.
If he is arrested and goes to prison, he may still be able to continue his lawsuit, and as for food, he won’t need SNAP. The BOP will provide for every meal he needs without any affidavits or forms to fill out.

Ms. Katz of Shipman & Goodwin controlled DCF 2011 – 2019 and the victim in the following case is suing for damages:
https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25553850/oca-report-probate-court-final-2025-03-04.pdf
Maybe AG Tong’s office fired that honest director of the Public Defenders’ Office with help from Joette Katz’s Shipman & Goodwin staff in preparation for the many pending lawsuits against DCF and the state of Connecticut. The Hartford Courant didn’t properly investigate or covered all that up, too.
Can the public attend the judicial branch media committee meetings or are those meetings private?
Ambrose was taught how to Dougie

I love the artwork- Ambrose grabbing the money, Salvador Dahli-esque melting clocks like hot wax wax on a but. It’s all so Frankish in form and in color. No semblance to reality. So bold.
I’m back you know it’s me!!!!
My partner finally snapped, telling me to get a life and leave her alone, so I shot back, “Baby, you are my hobby.” I eventually took the hint and mastered the computer just to stay out of her hair, but now I’ve fallen into a total obsession with Frank Palato’s blogs—I’m hooked on his pillow talk and can’t get enough of every word he writes.I canhelp you get that text ready for Frank.
Ok

Love the artwork – captures the essence of who he is and the physique is spot on
Cuz lord knows there is never a lag in social services updating their systems.
You’re so transparent Chris Ambrose. “Cuz” fools no one. 🤣 No lag Willful Calculated Exploitative Signature move by a psycho with no conscience.
As always, you are wrong. keep splashing your paranoid stupidity out here for everyone to see. 🤣
Connecticut is not going to go after the Star of the show. Minor math errors. Credibility does not matter in Connecticut. Asset protection, weath management. Protecting the system at all costs. Frank is small fish compared to what is really going on in Connecticut. It’s tough to get the correct information today with family court. Big fish control the information.
It seem Ambrose is set up for a Raniere-Level prison sentence.
Also, does anyone, not including taxpayers, NOT receive TaxPayer-provided benefits?
Ambrose is behaving like one of those Somali fraudsters in Minnesota. Perhaps Nick Shirley can come to CT and confront him.
The fraud perpetrated by Somalis in Minnesota was clearly organized crime, facilitated by lax enforcement and a glaring lack of oversight and control measures. Furthermore, there was an attempted political cover-up by the governor and administration. They wanted to avoid a political scandal regarding the handling and use of the funds. They also wanted to avoid questioning the special consideration and support given to minority groups in subsidies. Ambrose, on the other hand, is a small fish, acting spontaneously without a coherent plan. He is driven by psychopathy and emotions, without considering or weighing all the potential consequences.
To whom it may concern,
Re: Tim Salius President’s Award
The Tim Salius President’s Award is presented annually to an AFCC member who has provided exemplary service to the association. In 2015, the award was named in honor of the late Anthony “Tim” Salius, the only two-term president in AFCC history. Under his leadership in the mid-1980s, AFCC expanded to a truly national and ultimately international organization. Mr. Salius served as Director of the Family Division of the Superior Court, Connecticut Judicial Branch, for 36 years during which time Connecticut became a leader in providing court-connected mediation services and in collaborating with the domestic violence advocacy community.
Are you trying to assert that Ambrose, who graduated from one of the top law schools in the country, is incapable of weighing and considering the potential consequences of welfare fraud because he is a psycho? If that is essentially what you are saying then you are a moron.
Thanks, ShadowState1958!!!!!
Undoubtedly, this individual is a miser and a psychopath. This combination is a fatal mix that will land him in court. America is the ideal location for any absurdity.
He’s a conman. Let’s see if Judge Nagala puts a stop to the abuse of our CT systems.
Exploiting one’s own teenagers is about the lowest one can go.
Ambrose indeed is the psychopathic liar as determined by Dr Lee
He cannot qualify for state SNAP when he pays $3750 per month in rent.
He cannot claim zero income while maintaining residence on his waterfront estate. That’s his first fraud of likely many
Claiming his daughter as the 4th member of his household when she’s never resided in the waterfront residence since he moved in in Sept 2024 is the second fraud
Withholding her social security card and government issued ID to prevent discovery of his fraud shows intent
His lack of integrity will result in his own demise
Very sorry for his teenagers.
This will not end well for Mr. Ambrose.
In 2025, a couple in Connecticut were charged with SNAP fraud for continuing to collect benefits for their 11-year-old daughter. What they didn’t tell the Department of Social Services is that they had intentionally starved the child to death back in 2024.

Do secret political networks have anything to do with the blatant crimes committed against families for decades in “family courts”?
How else could that same small group of the worst of the worst lawyers, judges and other usurpers get away with destroying Connecticut’s children and families on purpose since the 1980s?
Like “the Epstein class”, they take full advantage of children and families, dragging on cases, starting trouble in cases on purpose for billable hours … it’s gone on and on since the 1980.
Who let them get away with committing those crimes for so long?
Enough is enough.

If you care enough to research what’s happened, Anthony Sutton’s book is a good place to start. If you can help save children and families from purposeful destruction in “family courts”, please help any way you can.
Everyone noticing sociopaths orchestrating Connecticut’s real estate foreclosures and “family court” destruction might have missed Klaus Schwab bragging to the “World Economic Forum” audience about the joy of merging everyone’s brains with his.
The plan is not your plan, of course. You are to submit to the internet of things / “IOT” and the internet of bodies / “IOB”.
If you heard Klaus casually mention that, you might not be surprised to learn that occult practices in Nazi Germany have something to do with the Nazi-like crimes against children and families in Connecticut.
Nazi occult practices and crimes are certainly much more threatening and more lethal than Nicola Cunha, Paul Boyne, Lizzie Harding and Jennifer Dulos appropriately asking state government offices to address obvious crimes committed against children and families in “family courts”. Nazi occultists might respond to such valid complaints with Nicola’s law license cancelled, Paul eventually sent to jail (after upping his satirical hyperbole) and Lizzie and Jennifer both murdered and gone in mysterious circumstances, followed by more mysteries.
After Jennifer’s last motion to Connecticut “family court” formally asked the Court to investigate the psychologist and guardian ad litem in that case, Connecticut’s court system somehow decided to seal Jennifer’s last motion.
After Connecticut’s judicial branch jailed Kent Mawhinney together with his client Simon Hessler, Kent’s now free to do as he pleases. Will he facilitate whatever private enterprises he and Mr. Markowitz established decades ago — maybe with help from IBM, Yale, the New Haven DOJ office? Who knows when everything’s a big secret?
Around 2014, about a hundred victims organized to research and expose crimes committed against families in family courts. Delivering information to the DOJ’s New Haven office, I saw an ordinary-looking man sitting at the front desk. He wore a fat and tarnished silver ring with what looked like a Templar cross covering the entire surface of the top of the ring. Maybe it was a Templar cross or some kind of funny joke to see how the “profane” and “uninitiated” would respond to seeing it in an FBI office. Who knows when everything’s a secret and it’s now so dangerous to ask questions such as that.
Antony Sutton’s book, page 161:
In that hidden world running above and parallel to the world of the “profane” and “uninitiated”, asking questions could lead to jail and/or death for anyone expecting transparency in government.
Since most Jews, Christians, Muslims and other Connecticut residents aren’t Nazis practicing ancient mystery religions, why is Connecticut state government not transparent, honest, participatory or representative?
Are we all under some kind of spell — or many spells?
Do the “worshipful” “initiates” in Connecticut use demons differently than the “profane” and “uninitiated” who also so frequently welcome demons to infest Connecticut?
That’s why you need to create anonymous websites like James McGibney does and hide like a rat and write articles on people. Also yourself. It’s a good way to pretend that you’re your own fan.
When therapy starts sounding like a game of “warmer, colder,” maybe pause before sending someone to prison for life.
