Elizabeth Harding Weinstein, at Center of Contentious Divorce and Mental Health Dispute, Dies at 53

Someone sent this:

“Lizzie Harding Weinstein was just found dead in a hotel room. Now there’s an investigation. It’s suspicious. The courts took her kids, her freedom, her driving license. All her money. She was wealthy and they put her under guardianship….”

Elizabeth “Lizzie” Harding Weinstein, a former nurse, mother of three, and ex-wife of a prominent New York attorney, died at 53 in Danbury, CT, in a hotel room.

Her death ends a five-year battle with her husband.

They were raising three teenage children, ages 17, nearly 16, and 13, in Westchester County. She was a former nurse, and at the time the fight began, a stay-at-home mother.

Her husband, Brian Stryker Weinstein, was a senior litigation partner at Davis Polk & Wardwell. His clients included Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase, BT Group, and E*Trade. He sat on the board of the Kenan Institute for Ethics at Duke University.

On May 20, 2020, Lizzie said she made a “discovery.”

She told him to leave the house.  He did.

She texted him after he drove away.

“We have all acknowledged that you have been indoctrinated into the practice of pedophilia.”

He was a lawyer. He replied, “I want the indoctrination of pedophilia to stop.”

Was this an admission? Or a clumsy, placating reply to a woman coming undone?

In context, it’s clear: he was not agreeing with her. He was trying to deescalate.

At the time of the split, the couple’s three children were teenagers—old enough to have memories, perceptions, and opinions. There is no record that any of the children ever affirmed their mother’s story.

Brian was out of the house. The children were with her.

He did what he knew: he used the courts.

He filed an emergency custody petition, 150 pages long, claiming Lizzie was suffering from untreated mental disorder and submitted evidence of disturbing instability.

On June 5, 2020—Judge Arlene Katz issued an ex parte Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) against Harding. The order barred her from contacting her husband, her three children, or living at the family residence.

Police removed her from the home. Weinstein moved back in with full physical custody of his children and exclusive control of the home.

The TRO was issued without Harding’s presence or input.

The following day, June 6, Harding filed for divorce. She alleged the children had been subjected to sexual abuse and the reason why they did not remember being abused by her husband was repressed memory.

On December 4, 2020, Judge Nancy Quinn-Koba signed a second ex parte temporary restraining order against Elizabeth Harding, prohibiting contact with her children and access to the family home.

While shut out at court, Lizzie told her story online. She posted frequently on Facebook, accusing Weinstein of abuse, and coordinated legal and psychiatric sabotage. She claimed the reason the teenage children did not support her pedophilia accusations is that her husband had brainwashed them.

Liz HardingLiz Harding

Her public accusations had the potential to destroy her husband’s career, which would also financially impact her children. Lizzie did not work. Her posts named her husband, his parents, and a broad group of alleged enablers of molestation, gaslighting, and mind control.

The FOIL Incident and Arrest

On January 4, 2021, Elizabeth Harding entered the Clerk’s Office in Briarcliff Manor to submit a Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) request and deliver a written complaint concerning Village Justice Howard T. Code, alleging denial of due process in prior proceedings.

Staff refused to accept her documents because Harding was not wearing a face mask, in violation of the Village’s COVID-19 protocols. Harding declined to wear a mask, citing a medical exemption. Village Manager Philip Zegarelli and Clerk Donna Zirman summoned the Briarcliff Manor Police Department.

Responding officers directed Harding to leave the premises. Harding recorded the encounter and stated her intention to post the footage online. Chief Bueti permitted her to submit the paperwork. However, he then allegedly shut the door on her, knocked her phone from her hand, physically restrained her against the wall, and placed her under arrest.

She was initially charged with disorderly conduct. The charges were later amended to obstruction of governmental administration and resisting arrest. Following the arrest, Harding was held in custody for several hours, during which she alleges she was shackled, subjected to a strip search, denied access to legal counsel, placed in solitary confinement, and held under suicide watch.

On January 5, 2021, during a virtual arraignment, Village Justice Howard T. Code ordered a psychiatric evaluation. Harding refused to participate.

On January 8, a court-appointed psychologist, Dr. Jerome Norton, attempted to conduct the evaluation. Harding again declined to consent to the assessment.

Civil Lawsuit, Involuntary Hospitalization, and TROs

February 17, 2021

Elizabeth Harding filed a civil lawsuit in New York State Supreme Court naming multiple defendants, including her husband Brian Weinstein, municipal officials from the Village of Briarcliff Manor, local police officers, prosecutors, and members of the judiciary. The complaint alleged that Weinstein exploited his professional and judicial connections in Westchester County to discredit her, suppress her legal actions, and conceal alleged domestic violence and abuses of process.

March 9, 2021

Harding was involuntarily admitted to St. Vincent’s Hospital in Westchester County for psychiatric evaluation and treatment. She declined medication and requested a judicial hearing pursuant to New York Mental Hygiene Law §9.31. The hearing was postponed for approximately two weeks. Subsequently, Judge Anne E. Minihan ordered that Harding comply with a prescribed psychiatric medication regimen as a condition of release.

St. Vincent’s Hospital in Harrison, NY

March 17, 2021

While Harding remained hospitalized, her state court civil action was dismissed on the grounds that it was “frivolous.” The court further initiated a mental health inquiry and raised the possibility of appointing a guardian ad litem to represent her legal interests in future proceedings.

April 2, 2021
Harding was released from involuntary hospitalization at St. Vincent’s.

April 16, 2021

Judge Nancy Quinn-Koba issued an ex parte Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) against Harding. Within minutes, Harding was stopped by Briarcliff Manor police and taken into custody. Officers claimed she had violated a prior TRO between April 5 and April 7, despite Harding’s contention that no such order had been entered or served during that period.

She was charged with misdemeanor violations, allegedly for posting a photograph of her minor children online. Later that day, Village Justice Halper issued a new ex parte TRO prohibiting Harding from coming within 1,500 feet of her home or her children.

Lizzie Is Relentless

June 1, 2021
Harding doubled down. She continued to publish allegations against her husband on Facebook , alleging he had committed acts of sexual abuse, domestic violence, and coercive control. She accused him of alienating their children through psychological manipulation and drugging.

She claimed to have suffered false arrests, poisoning, and the deletion of her social media accounts. Harding alleged that courts at the state, appellate, and federal levels refused to hear her claims. She concluded by stating, “I WILL NOT STOP SPEAKING THE TRUTH.”

June 11, 2021
Harding posted again on Facebook, stating she had been barred from attending her son Max’s graduation. She reiterated her accusations against Weinstein and stated, “SHAME FALLS SQUARELY ON PEDOPHILE BRIAN STRYKER WEINSTEIN.”

June 12, 2021
Harding posted a photograph of Weinstein alongside his parents, Richard and Alice Weinstein, and accused the family of condoning and enabling child sexual abuse. She alleged that family members dismissed reports of abuse as “unfortunate” and stated her children were afraid of their grandfather. She referred to Weinstein as “100x worse than the slimiest parasite” and claimed he engaged in a campaign of psychological indoctrination targeting their son Max.

Guardian Hearings

June 24 and June 30, 2021
Following Harding’s public social media posts, Weinstein petitioned the Westchester County Supreme Court for the appointment of a guardian. According to reports, Weinstein submitted affidavits alleging that Harding suffered from schizophrenia and narcissistic and bipolar personality disorders. These allegations referenced her public accusations of pedophilia, all without evidence and cited online behavior he characterized as erratic, defamatory and harmful to the children. All three children rejected their mother’s claims about their father.

Judge Janet C. Malone conducted two ex parte hearings to evaluate Harding’s competency, pursuant to Article 81 of the New York Mental Hygiene Law.

August 2, 2021
Judge Malone issued an order adjudicating Elizabeth Harding mentally incapacitated under MHL §81.02. She appointed attorney Kenneth L. Bunting as Guardian of the Property, with legal authority over Harding’s civil litigation, financial affairs, and access to the courts.

Immediately following his appointment, Bunting moved to terminate Harding’s pending lawsuits. He informed relevant courts that no future filings were authorized unless issued directly from his office.

Harding later alleged that Bunting exceeded his mandate by liquidating or freezing personal assets, closing financial accounts, withholding spousal support, and discontinuing critical services, such as automobile insurance. She contends these actions deprived her of resources necessary for food, shelter, and legal representation.

August 11, 2021
Harding posted on Twitter: “I will never stop fighting for my children… These pedophiles desecrate our societies—NOT ON MY WATCH.” At the time of the post, she had not seen her children for approximately 19 months.

With the guardianship order in effect, the court dismissed Harding’s pending divorce case for failure to prosecute. Weinstein refiled for divorce in his own name and was granted dissolution of the marriage by default, and consequently kept the entirety of the marital assets, as well as full legal and physical custody of the children.

The guardian prevented Harding from contesting or participating in her own divorce.

The Battle Is Over

Nothing changed during the last four years of her life.

In her videos, she’s the last honest woman in a world of liars. To the court, she was a mother declared unfit.

The kids, now all over the age of 18, remain close to their father. The funeral was Monday. Her ex-husband and three children attended.

This is a cautionary tale for the age of accusation.

She had lost her children. Her legal standing. Her money, her freedom. And in the end, her life.

She also nearly cost her family everything. Their reputation. Their father. Their peace.

The obituary reads:

Elizabeth “Lizzie” Harding Weinstein, a registered nurse, mother of three, and former Westchester resident, studied early childhood education at Boston University before earning her nursing degree from Columbia University. She is survived by her three children, Max, Ella, and Jack; her parents; and extended family.

She was 53.

What it did not say was that she was homeless for five years, starting about two weeks after she began accusing her lawyer husband of pedophilia.

Harding lost custody of her children, access to her home, control over her finances, and ultimately her legal standing—without ever having a full evidentiary hearing on the truth of her claims.

However, Harding’s allegations were unsupported by their three teenagers,  third-party witnesses, forensic evidence, or law enforcement corroboration.

The legal system never said Harding was lying. It ruled that she was not credible enough to be heard.

Her husband used TROs, psychiatric evaluations, and guardianship law to sideline an inconvenient, volatile and possibly delusional voice.

She never provided forensic evidence, eyewitness corroboration, or proof of a criminal inquiry in all her videos and posts.

Had Harding’s allegations been believed and acted upon, Weinstein would have faced professional ruin, disbarment, and criminal charges.

The damage would not stop with him. The children would become known as the offspring of a molester. Their schooling, relationships, and mental health could suffer. If the allegations were untrue, or driven by illness, the harm would be irreversible.

Mental Illness Cannot Be Ignored

Harding’s conduct was not helpful to her credibility. She live-streamed videos, made accusations on social media, and described coordinated conspiracies. She refused psychiatric evaluation, refused medication when committed, and rejected the authority of multiple courts. Over time, while some of the public may have believed her, judges reached a shared conclusion: she was mentally unstable.

Elizabeth Harding WeinsteinElizabeth Harding Weinstein

Whether or not that diagnosis was correct, her behavior gave the court justification to take precautionary steps. From their perspective, this was not silencing. It was containment.

“What if she was right?” is a question weighed against “What if she was severely ill?”

And when one party appears unstable—especially if they are publicly attacking judges, guardians, and therapists—the courts will protect the calmer, more institutionally compliant party.

If Elizabeth Harding was wrong, her accusations were reckless, damaging, and cruel. If she was mentally ill, she was treated as a legal liability rather than a health emergency. And if she was right—if there was any truth to what she alleged—then the law turned its back on a woman who tried to speak out.

Still, Harding accused Weinstein of serious crimes but offered no evidence.  Where were the children’s statements? The school reports? The disclosures? She posted online, named therapists as “handlers,” and accused his entire family of “grooming.” She tried to crash graduation ceremonies, filmed her own arrest, defied court orders, and posted daily videos on Facebook.

So her husband, a lawyer, retaliated with filings. He asked judges to protect his children, to secure their futures, to limit what Elizabeth kept igniting.

The law was used not just to silence her—but to survive her.

She gambled the family’s future on a theory she couldn’t prove. He gambled too. Because if she wasn’t stopped, her narrative could destroy his children, his career, and everything he had built.

If she wasn’t mentally ill, she was reckless. And while her case shows the built-in injustices in family court, it also illustrates the harm that can be done by false allegations and how the court for all its imperfections may have delivered justice.

Where this case is distinguished from many other cases where the court is used as a weapon by the wealthier parent is that the pivotal, deciding factor was the children. If they said it had happened, it would not have ended this way.

But they said it did not happen and, in the end, in this case – and in perhaps most cases – we ought to believe the children – then and now as young adults. They knew their mother was delusional and wished, as they had said, she could have been treated. She wasn’t. It can’t be helped now.

May Lizzie Harding rest in peace.

    Excellent article. This was a rare case where I believe mental illness was the catalyst for the demise of this marriage. This was NOT like many cases where once in court racketeering begins and usually the mother is targeted as being personality disordered by a court appointed psychologist who does not even hold the required license to make a medical diagnoses! These are custody evaluations of fraud.

    In this case medical doctors were relied upon – and medical doctors are the only ones who can make a medical diagnoses of a personality disorder.

    Regardless, Lizzie was treated as a villain. Rather than being treated with care and empathy, the guardian appointed did not act on her behalf. And she was starved for money, which only compounded her heartache and hardship.

    Mental illness or not the sudden loss of all contact with her three teenagers would make anyone lose their mind.

      Let’s not make this about gender. In CT, at least, I know many men who have been the targeted parent. It is not about gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, etc., it is about money. Targeting a parent, whether male or female, creates conflict where so called court professionals (GALs, custody evaluators, etc) descend on the family to drain them of all assets by charging exhorabant hourly rates and fraudulent billing as in the Riordan case. All of this, is in the best interests of the children, of course.

      The reason why reforms such as jury trials and using the criminal standard for issuing TROs, have not been instituted is because victims can’t seem to unite, due in large part, to segregating themselves into gender tribes, pointing the finger at each other rather than the corrupt system.

      Dave Weigel is trying to unite everyone to change the system through his Facebook page..Family Court Fraud Warrior Project. I think everyone victimized by the corrupt system should join that movement, And no, I am NOT Dave Weigel.
      • White daddy wonderlandJuly 19, 2025
        The family court warrior project. The warrior are parental alienation warriors. The group is lead by MOSTLY MEN. In the group are equal and shared parenting. With a major focus on getting rid of child support. It's unclear what exactly is going on in the Weigel case. The children don't appear scared of the man. The parents relationship is a toxic one. Among the group is equal and shared parenting and court reform leaders from Connecticut. Equal and shared parenting including the Alienation industry have been battling the domestic violence community for years. ” 99 percent of DV alligations are false in my opinion”. How convenient to cash in on coaching parents to run to family court system and claim Alienation. In 2014 the ” Alienation” industry Grand standed in front of Connecticut judicial branch and politicians. A letter was presented to the task force for the three strikes costodial interference. The letter also went out to proclaiming only specially trained in Alienation should be allowed on family court cases. Only psychologist should be garduim ad lithium. Mentioning Linda Gotlibe from the brain washing camps. Court ordered with out evaluation. Just like the coaching services a one sided narrative. The CT Alienation industry expert sight case of a mother who took her children to Disney world with a boyfriend paying for the trip. Some how the Connecticut family court system found it to be parental alienation. Also discussed by Mark Ludwig. Claiming that if a mother takes the children to Disney world before the father does it's Alienation. Now all trips to Disney are dangerous to a family court case. The term maternal gatekeeper was coined by the fatherhood initiative. A barrier to engaging problematic fathers. The Alienation industry ” expert” from Connecticut herself referring to parental alienation as extreme gatekeeping. ” This is not a woman or a man issue” . Yet all of the Alienation industry surrounding the negative image of women entering the family court system seeking custody. The request for child support. Equal and shared parenting grandstanding to the legislators that men are the victim and are being driven to suicide. Fatherless America. The statistics gathered for the fatherhood claim they are mistreated in the legal system. Single parent households are made up of widows widowers incarcerated parents deployed parents and other. Single father households have increased 75 percent. CO habitation and remarried with custody are not factured in. Men remarry 64 percent within the first few years after divorce. Where women stay single. So the number of fathers actually getting custody are unknown INTENTIONALLY. $113 billion dollars in child support arranges at last count. The majority are white fathers well above poverty and not incarcerated. White women make up 64 percent of single households. 53 percent of children are born out of wedlock. 70 percent of the paternity test that the child are not the father's baby. The number of men who decline paternity test is unknown. These are fathers who are surtine the child is theirs and want to claim their children on birth certificate. The number of men commiting suicide. 80 percent of suicide are committed by men. The average age of suicide for both genders is the highest at the same age as the most divorces are filed. Women filing for divorce has declined over all. No one wants to get married when the entire country is paying to have them labeled at the family court house. Women are no longer interested in having children because they will be forced to live under the conditions that Angry white men have decided. The majority of pedophiles are white men. Some how all this has driven women in every color crazy. A majority of the United States and their labor force. Under earnings, under appreciated for anything other than child birth. Not given equal rights so angry white man can run the court system on biological rights and entitlements. Best interest is rearly consider. So I am calling BS on this is not a gender or race issue. Blaming the minority community for economic problems and exploration of them.
        • AnonymousJuly 20, 2025
          Most of the admins in Dave Weigel’s Family Court Fraud Warrior Project group are women.

          Again, at least I’m CT, the corruption and fraud is driven by money and not by gender, race, etc.

          The current system must be reformed nationwide through jury trials in family cases, use of the criminal constitutional standard for TRO’s, and instituting protections for pro se litigants. This will benefit both genders, all races, and will ameliorate the injustices experienced by so many.

            David Weigel went after women on social media platforms. Including mothers fighting CPS. He apparently referred to one of his employees as sweet tits. Doesn't seem to respect women complaining about the court system. Women like Lizzy let into the group. Now she is on the frank report as a cautionary tail. Another crazy woman in the court system. A Connecticut Facebook group for women was over taken by the family court warrior project. Some how Peter was let in began putting father's rights statistics. When one of the group members broke down the statics. Peter became enraged. He got kicked out. Shortly after the owner of the group was kicked out and the moderator brought in the employees like Amy to solicited the group to join. When a woman confront any of the men really running the group about false statistics they are degraded. These are the experiences women are having in discussing anything that doesn't support 50/50 legislation. The are taught title 4D is the problem. 71 billion is what is spent from what I am told . However there is $113 billion in arrarges. This is the biggest complaint and the reason the teach is the problem. While the woman have had their children taken away for Alienation claims. Some are unfit mothers. If their is not money to collect child support more Tanf grant funding will be needed. A majority of mothers will have their children away because they are living in poverty. They are also very angry men who were left. This will trap more DV victims into staying married to live under the abuser control. The fatherhood initiative is a front for the fathers rights groups. Just like the family court warrior project. The Alienation industry is also going after coursive control expert. Stopping them from providing education. These people are are highly manipulative and absolutely want complete control.

              The focus on gender and tribalism rather than on the systemic RICO corruption these family court domestic terrorists engage in is the reason why they are getting away with child trafficking.

              The victims from all genders, races, religions, etc need to unite, demand accountability, and reforms such as jury trials, ending silver bullet tactics, and ending state financial incentives for parental alienation.

          Exploiting the minority community.. I believe the likes of Lizzy and Theadora were embarrassed by the warrior project. Then exploited as a cautionary tail by the paid family court journalist. Silver bullet tactics. The cookie jar case. The prime example of the report of failure in the DV system in reports. A wealthy white man who garduim ad lithium was reported to call the prosecutor office. Now angry because he entered a deal to leverage marital property to continue his crusade in the state of Connecticut legal system. ” Go to criminal court” perhaps knowing about the failures. Pushing 50/50 legislation, perhaps knowing dv is not being taken seriously in Connecticut. Having women arrested for custodial interference. MB. Working with the garduim ad lithium in the public defenders office in Alienation cases. ” All children rejecting parents” are brainwashed. There is just no question ” . Referring them and providing coaching services. Connecticut is home to some of the wealthiest men in the United States of America. Connecticut is the leader of criminal justice reform and legislation for responsible fatherhood. Generating billions of dollars to the state, yet the leader of reform claims there is no funding. The United States family court system will never be fixed as long as the twice divorced and failed engagement angry white man is leading the charge which is really to control the conditions in which all women and children live. The court system is currupt and it would appear the leaders in the reform movement are part of it.

      • K.C.July 20, 2025
        This “White Daddy Wonderland” writers powerful critique identifies a worrying trend: certain fathers’ rights groups assert that men are the primary victims of systemic bias in courts, child-support systems, and social services. Their observations about parental alienation and skewed gender narratives are well-founded—and backed by substantial evidence.

        1. Parental Alienation: Pseudoscience & a Tool for Abuse

        PAS Refuted by Major Authorities: The APA, WHO, AMA, and National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges have formally rejected Parental Alienation Syndrome as scientifically invalid and inadmissible in court .

        Empirical Gender Bias: Studies (e.g., by Columbia Law and University of Minnesota) confirm that parental alienation claims disproportionately discredit mothers and silencing abuse survivors .

        Legal Precedents: Canadian and UK courts have curtailed alienation claims, identifying them as harmful legal maneuvers rather than psychiatric diagnoses .

        2. Distorting Abuse Allegations in Custody Disputes

        Weaponizing PAS to Dismiss Abuse: Fathers’ groups often misuse parental alienation to undermine credible abuse claims—European and North American courts have documented this trend .

        Child Welfare at Risk: Research from Georgetown University and DOJ-funded studies show custody courts frequently overlook child or debtor safety when parental alienation tactics are invoked .

        3. Men’s Mental Health & High Suicide Rates

        Gendered Suicide Stats: CDC and WHO data—peer-reviewed and collected via WISQARS—show men are 3–4× more likely to die by suicide, with middle-aged men particularly vulnerable post-divorce .

        Family Separation Impact: British studies indicate up to 20% of middle-aged male suicides are driven by family breakdown and denied child contact .

        4. Court Disparities & Misleading Narratives

        Bias in Custody & Sentencing: Fathers’ rights claims ignore sentencing inequities—but these exist in criminal justice, not family law .

        Fathers’ Movement vs Evidence: Scholarship (e.g., Rachel)—fathers’ rights campaigns often employ anecdote, not peer-reviewed evidence—and can lead to policies that endanger women and children .

        Policies, Laws & Expert Consensus

        1. APA & DOJ Policy

        The APA's 1996 Task Force on Violence and the Family warned courts against using PAS, as it risks disregarding domestic violence .

        DOJ-funded research highlights how custody courts that accept alienation-based claims often fail to protect vulnerable parents and children .

        2. State Reforms Restricting PAS Tools

        States like California and New York have passed laws limiting parental alienation claims unless validated by behavioral evidence, not psychiatric labels .

        Reports like “Gender Bias in Cross-Allegation” propose reforms to prevent PAS misapplication .

        3. Suicide and Public Health Reports

        WHO/CDC/WISQARS data document historic male suicide rates and relationship stress as a major factor .

        UK government and mental-health bodies (e.g., Dads Unlimited) acknowledge links between family separation, paternal alienation, and suicide risk .

        Conclusion & Call to Action

        Parental alienation claims are not science—they're legal gamesmanship. This pseudo-psychology is weaponized to silence abuse survivors and justify removing custody.

        Fathers are not systemically victimized; children and women often bear the brunt of these narratives. Empirical data does not support the claim that men are the primary victims in courts or social services.

        Reform is happening—but more is needed. APA, DOJ, mental-health authorities, and several U.S. states are increasingly limiting PAS-based arguments and prioritizing child safety and abuse prevention.

        We must reject this false equality rhetoric and enforce policies that protect battered women and children from being overshadowed by pseudo-scientific claims of paternal victimhood.

          Parental alienation most definitely exists. In a high conflict case I am aware of, the court order states that the father shall have parenting time AT LEAST twice per week; two hours each time. This is a floor not a ceiling. The father has repeatedly asked for more parenting time and has been refused by opposing counsel and the GAL in this case. He is even not allowed to attend ABA therapy for his autistic son unless it’s on his parenting time, which is dangerously because the younger son would be left ignored and unattended, yet the GAL feels that’s okay.

          This same GAL failed to inform the court when the older son, who is non verbal and autistic eloped from his mothers residence, while she and her au pair were home and crossed the busy post road alone in the middle of the day. All of this was caught on video.

          Don’t tell me parental alienation does not exist.

            If the judge ordered twice a week for two hours that tells me something is wrong. It is satisfying access and no more. There were two adults in the house and the kid got out. It an isolated incident. There arresting 20 years old WOMEN who bring children to church and are found at the front entrance. I listen to a podcast from 2 months ago. Love fraud where the Alienation ” expert” spent more time advertising false claims than answering questions about a case of REAL sexual abuse. Reduced parenting time is not a smoking gun that someone is alienated.

              Level of incompetence.when you can not identify one sign or symptom of child sexual abuse. Even the person asking the ” expert” become confused 🤔. Every time a question is asked it is flipped back to defending claims are false. The difficulty reporting abuse to CPS. Abuse in all forms is a complex issue. When the the people allowed to control the psychology of family court can't identify it. Anyone pointing out that they appear to be incompetent, not following the eithical guidelines of their profession is a deatractor. Perhaps the co parenting and best interest of children would be better achieved when the court system kicks these people out of the court house. Asking for freedom and protection from a person who is engaging in unhealthy behavior is not Alienation. Boundaries and healthy co parenting is impossible when problems are not identified. No one is perfect but what is fitness?: when the industry controlling it can not determine the difference between a real problem and fake one? The best interest of children is being determined to people who can not determine facts from fiction.

                    There is no evidence that Brian was “Jessie” or that “Jessie” was sexually soliciting minors. Have you ever seen any evidence aside from Lizzie’s repeated claims? Ask yourself this, if Brian was going to sexually solicit minors do you think he’d be dumb enough to do it on moviestarplanet, a site Lizzie had been obsessing over for years? If there was a Jessie profile it most likely was made to monitor their children’s activity on the site. Lizzie then twisted this into evidence of pedophilia. She had a real talent for taking innocent things out of context and making them sound nefarious. But she never once posted any “sexual solicitation” evidence, listed none in her lawsuits, and when asked about it would evade and change the subject. Lizzie was a skilled liar.

              As far as the eloping from the home being an isolated incident, the mother has known for years that the child has a tendency to elope. He tries to elope from everywhere. This wasn’t an isolated incident. It was neglect.

            Parental alienation is not a credible or validated psychological theory — it is a legal tactic, overwhelmingly weaponized by abusive fathers to discredit mothers who raise concerns about child safety, trauma, or violence.

            Let’s be clear:

            Parental alienation has no scientific validity, is not recognized by the American Psychological Association, and is categorically dangerous when used in custody cases.

            Here’s what the research and legal community says:

            1. George Washington Law Custody Outcomes Study (Joan Meier, 2019):

            Fathers who accuse mothers of alienation are more likely to win custody, even when the mother has reported abuse.

            In fact, abusers successfully gain custody 70% of the time when they use alienation claims against protective mothers.

            Full Study PDF

            2. National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges CJFCJ):

            “Judges should not allow alienation arguments to override evidence of abuse. Alienation claims have been misused to punish protective parents.”

            NCJFCJ Bench Card on Custody & DV

            3. American Professional Society on the Abuse of Children (APSAC):

            “Parental alienation lacks a scientific basis, and its misuse in family court has led to dangerous outcomes for abused children.”

            APSAC Position Paper

            4. UN Human Rights Council Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women (2023):

            “Parental alienation is being systematically used to discredit women and children who disclose abuse. It enables family court systems to strip custody from protective mothers, retraumatize survivors, and silence child disclosures.”

            UN Report on Custody and Violence Against Women

            Anecdotes ≠ Evidence

            Your anecdote — even if true — does not justify the use of “parental alienation” rhetoric, nor does it disprove the overwhelming body of evidence showing that this concept has been used to override abuse disclosures, coerce reunification, and silence victims.

            Let’s also note:

            Having a GAL you disagree with doesn’t mean alienation is happening.

            A child eloping or needing accommodations does not justify removing a mother’s custodial rights unless abuse or neglect is proven in court.

            Fathers are not “erased” from systems designed to protect children — they are often prioritized, even when evidence of harm exists.

            Bottom Line:

            “Parental alienation” is not about child welfare — it’s a custody weapon, used to shift blame and power away from abusive or controlling parents.

            If you want to advocate for children — start with protecting the ones who speak up about abuse and are silenced in courtrooms where alienation becomes the smokescreen for system-enabled trauma.

              Aren’t silver bullet TROs being used, in many cases, to get an unfair litigation advantage? This is why such TROs should be taken out of family courts and remain in the criminal courts. If abuse really does occur, then it’s the criminal court, with its appropriate heightened evidentiary standard, that should make the rulings, and not family court judges where someone can simply walk in with their high powered and well connected family attorney, file an affidavit of lies without any supporting evidence, and get a TRO that infringes on one’s constructional rights.

            Actually, yes—he did make admissions. I watched the video firsthand on YouTube, multiple times, before it was made private. The video was titled “Elizabeth Harding Weinstein Case History – May 21, 2020: Confronting Brian” and was shared publicly by Michael, a known associate of Brian Stryker Weinstein, were he to failed to paint Lizzy as crazy and a liar in need of medical help. The typical family abuser supporters tactic Lizzy later changed the video's settings, but not before many—including myself—viewed it.

            In that video, Elizabeth confronted Brian about disturbing browser history and explicit material found on his devices. She also referenced the letters he kept from an adult male abuser during his college years. Rather than denying the claims outright, Brian acknowledged the harmful cycle and said he wanted “the indoctrination into pedophilia to stop”—a deeply concerning and revealing statement that no innocent person would say under pressure unless there were some truth to confront.

            I stand by what I said. My credibility matters. I do not lie, and I do not speak on issues without direct knowledge or evidence. The truth is that protective mothers are routinely gaslit, criminalized, and erased in family court and public discourse. Dismissing Elizabeth’s warnings as “harassment” is not only disingenuous—it’s dangerous. If anything, the pattern of men reflexively calling women “crazy” or “relentless” when they speak out about abuse is exactly why more victims stay silent.

It was titled “Elizabeth Harding Weinstein Case History – May 21, 2020: Confronting Brian” and was uploaded by Lizzy herself. It was publicly viewable on YouTube for over a year before being set to private. Probably under threat from Brian's attorneys.

            Many of us mother's watched it. I personally viewed it multiple times between 2021 and 2022. It clearly showed Elizabeth confronting her husband about child exploitation content found on his devices, and he made concerning admissions—including saying he wanted “the indoctrination into pedophilia to stop.” That statement alone speaks volumes.

            Karen Riordan did. It's no secret to both women that there is a big push for especially mothers to Co parent with abusive men. ” Engaging problematic fathers”. The majority of the mothers have limited income. The family court system is using costly services to get women to agree to unsafe and unfair agreements. It's part of the problem. Gatekeeping is a natural instinct to protect a child. The court system is failing to do so. It's a complex situation. Some time it's a legitimate resource and some times it used as a weapon. I'm sure many people are resentful and scared of the family court system. When you report to the court house no one realizes that they don't care. Even when it effects the children. Especially mothers are the allowed to advocate for what they feel are best interest. Several answer can be found in the fatherhood initiative. Fathers don't pay child support when access is limited or taken away. The programs are based on the worth of a man. The higher wage earner. The billion dollars worth of cost to the child support system. The need for welfare funds to single mothers. The condition of the father is of little concern to the family court system. Domestic violence victims are reduced to supervised visits to punish them into making agreements. The cost of address criminal behavior. None of this is about best interest standards. It's about economics. The use of mediators, psychologist and supervised visits are often used to force agreements. Stop the person from reporting behavior like alcohol abuse, sexual abuse, corpral punishment and mental abuse of the children. The judges know it. The garduim ad lithium know it, the court psychologist knows it, and the state legislators know it. It's all financially driven based on costs savings. You are treated poorly in the system. Expected to tolerate abuse . Especially by monitized fathers who are the larger earners. Fatherhood flames. The whopper. Fatherhood your way. It's a display of dominance based on financial worth. It's got nothing to do with protecting children or Best interest. It's about the financial Best interest of the state. Reports of Something like 41 billion to collect child support in the United States. $113billio in arranges. Arresting mothers for non compliance gatekeeping their children. To forcing co parenting with abusive parents to get child support paid, so the state doesn't have to provide assistance. A mental health crisis and not a criminal matter. Like it or not you will be forced to co parent for the economic growth and development of the state. Don't ask don't tell or you will be financially punished. Your children will be taken away.

              Sorry but a lot of this is just hogwash. The family court system isn’t perfect but to act like there’s some vast conspiracy among all its participants to make money at the expense of children is loony tunes. When courts and restraining orders are involved it is in almost every case because the two parents involved are in a contentious situation making terrible accusations against each other. Someone has to represent the interests of children when one or both parents will not. Do they always get it right? Probably not, a lot of these cases are complex and there is often fault on both sides. It’s a matter of choosing the least bad of a lot of bad options. If all parents put the welfare of their children above their own interests there would be no need for family court.

It's designed on social programs for economic growth. Two parent households are desired. It's best economically. Child support is best economically. To enforce it. The judges are not stupid. They are placed on the bench in several states by politicians. These politicians are well educated on the financial health of their state and country. It's political and it is Connecticut running it through the fatherhood initiative and criminal justice reform system. Best interest is determined to financials of the state. The Alienation industry was developed to keep strategic planning moving along. Read the reports Congress already knows it.

                Sorry but a lot of this is just hogwash.
                The family court system isn’t perfect but to act like there’s some vast conspiracy among all its participants to make money at the expense of children is loony tunes.
                When courts and restraining orders are involved it is in almost every case because the two parents involved are in a contentious situation making terrible accusations against each other.
                Someone has to represent the interests of children when one or both parents will not.
                Do they always get it right? Probably not, a lot of these cases are complex and there is often fault on both sides.
                It’s a matter of choosing the least bad of a lot of bad options.
                If all parents put the welfare of their children above their own interests there would be no need for family court.

                The statistics probably currently average a fatality or two every day in “family court” cases. Please be a little more considerate. Reasons to reason away statistics don’t help.

                  You have been manipulating the family courts system for years. It about time the system stopped allowing you a front row seat to fixing it. Years have passed since 2014. “fault “, no people are not perfect, but all the people in the 30 percent are mutually abusive? I call absolute bs on the matter. Equal and shared parenting is a men's rights group working hand and hand with the fatherhood initiative at UConn. The Marsha cline Pruit and the high conflict couple and the promotion of the Afcc. The husband Kyle works with the fatherhood initiative. For years the smoke show of parental alienation has dominated family court and protected abusive men and a hand full of women. Collecting millions. Lizzy was perhaps mentally ill proven in court. You make excuses for Micheal the ark angle. PEOPLE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO GO TO FAMILY COURT AND NOW IS A WEAPON. I Received no consideration at the family courthouse. NEITHER DID THE CHILD. I NEVER WENT TO THE COURTHOUSE WITHOUT PROFF. Your attorneys are corrupt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you are upset with the truth that's your problem. I'm not going to stop telling it.

                    Don’t forget that Sean Scanlon, now Connecticut’s State Comptroller, controls oversight of grants, nonprofit contracts, and diversionary program funding across the judicial system—including those tied to the fatherhood initiatives, “responsible parenting” programs, and reunification services.

                    His wife, Meghan Scanlon (previously Forgione), has a known history of harassment and illegal computer access toward her ex-boyfriend while at Quinnipiac University. Yet she is now the Executive Director of the Connecticut Coalition Against Domestic Violence (CCADV) and heads the new “Connecticut Response to Family Violence” Committee—a committee formed without any legal authority under the judicial branch, as revealed in the 2024 Connecticut State Audit.

                    The recent CT State Auditors’ Report (2024) found that:

                    Diversionary programs tied to fatherhood and “family stability” were lacking internal controls

                    Oversight committees were operating beyond their statutory mandates

                    Judges, GALs, and court vendors were referring litigants to unlicensed and unaudited services, often tied to federal pass-through grants

                    Source: Auditors of Public Accounts – 2024 Report on Judicial Branch and Family Violence Programs

                    https://www.cga.ct.gov/apa/

                    Family Relations staff like Joseph DiTunno, with direct family ties to Fatherhood Initiative meetings (Dianne DiTunno), represent exactly the kind of undisclosed conflict of interest that continues to infect custody and visitation decisions in this state. These actors are operating as policy influencers, not neutral court agents.

                    Anthony Gay, of DCF and Child Support Enforcement, has long participated in Fatherhood Roundtable strategy sessions—including those hosted directly through the Governor’s Office—yet no comparable “Motherhood” strategy council exists. That’s not hogwash. That’s institutional design.

                    The entire judicial ecosystem—from supervised visitation centers to “high conflict” reunification programs—is driven by federal incentive funding, political appointments, and administrative court orders that bypass constitutional protections and due process.

                    Shared and equal parenting groups love to chant “best interest of the child,” but what they’re really protecting is the multi-million dollar infrastructure of father-friendly grant programs, diversionary contract networks, and Title IV-D enforcement models—which profit the courts, nonprofits, and state agencies, not the children.

                    The Urban Institute and Congressional Research Service confirm these are economically motivated federal strategies—not trauma-informed family policy.

                    So no—this isn’t conspiracy. This is documented state capture of family violence response and child custody policy. And until CT dismantles this incestuous network of political gatekeeping, backdoor committees, and unaccountable program spending, parents will continue to be railroaded and children placed in harm’s way for the sake of optics and revenue.

                Respectfully, your reply proves exactly why this conversation is necessary—because people like you dismiss systemic, policy-driven realities as “hogwash” without doing a shred of research.

                Let me break it down using only public law, congressional records, policy reports, and court documents—not opinion, not conspiracy.

                FACT 1: The Family Court System Is Engineered by Policy—Not Just Conflict

                The system you’re defending was deliberately redesigned in 1996 through the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA). This law reshaped welfare programs like TANF and embedded these goals into family policy:

                Promote two-parent households

                Reduce out-of-wedlock births

                Increase child support collections

                Encourage paternity establishment

                Source: Congress.gov – PRWORA (Public Law 104-193)

                https://www.congress.gov/bill/104th-congress/house-bill/3734

                This wasn’t about protecting children. It was about reducing state welfare payouts and transferring financial responsibility onto noncustodial parents—primarily through forced father involvement. That’s not conspiracy. That’s federal law.

                FACT 2: The Fatherhood Initiative Was Not Just About “Good Dads”

                The Federal Fatherhood Initiative, launched under both Republican and Democratic administrations, is a direct policy extension of PRWORA. It ties responsible fatherhood programs to child support enforcement and marriage promotion for fiscal reasons.

                The Congressional Research Service put it plainly:

                “Fatherhood programs… are closely linked to the federal government’s goals of decreasing welfare dependence by increasing child support collections and promoting marriage.”

                👉 CRS RL31025 – Fatherhood Initiatives: Connecting Fathers to Their Children

                https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/RL/RL31025

                This is not about emotion. This is about state economics.

                FACT 3: The Court System Is Not Neutral—It Is Politically and Economically Driven

                In states like Connecticut, the court system is structured around fatherhood programming, reunification services, GAL training, and shared parenting models that serve state budgetary interests—not safety.

                Judges are not apolitical. They are often appointed by politicians who are acutely aware of their state’s welfare burden. Family court decisions that promote shared custody or “resolve conflict” also preserve federal and state funding streams tied to performance in TANF, IV-D enforcement, and Healthy Marriage initiatives.

                FACT 4: AFCC and “High Conflict” Language Dismiss Protective Mothers

                In Connecticut and across the country, the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC) influences judicial training. Its models—especially the “high conflict couple” framework pushed by Dr. Marsha Kline Pruett—routinely reframe domestic violence and child abuse as mutual conflict rather than trauma.

                This is documented in: 👉 The Family Law Education Reform Project Final Report – AFCC

                https://www.afccnet.org/Portals/0/Committees/TheFamilyLawEducationReformProjectFinalReportWeb.pdf

                These frameworks are used in courtrooms to ignore or neutralize legitimate abuse claims—primarily from mothers—and push “reunification” as a therapeutic goal, not a safety evaluation.

                FACT 5: The Urban Institute Confirms Economic Motivation

                The Urban Institute, a mainstream, well-respected research body, plainly stated in their review of fatherhood initiatives:

                “The programs were rooted in policy goals to stabilize families economically.”

                Urban Institute – Ten Key Findings from Responsible Fatherhood Initiatives

                This isn’t conjecture. It’s a widely acknowledged design: child safety is secondary to economic outcomes.

                FACT 6: Parental Alienation is Not a Diagnostic Tool—It’s a Court Weapon

                The rise of the “alienation” industry—used most often against mothers who report abuse—isn’t based in psychological science. It’s a litigation and custody tactic, rooted in strategic policy to enforce shared parenting and discourage resistance to reunification.

                That’s why protective mothers are often labeled “uncooperative” or “unstable”—not because they’re unsafe, but because they’re not complying with a state-incentivized custody script.

                Read how this ideology is taught to courts:

                Harvard Negotiation Law Review: Schepard, Pruett, Kourlis (2005)

                https://journals.law.harvard.edu/hnlr/wp-content/uploads/sites/91/25-Andrew-Schepard-Marsha-Kline-Pruett-Rebecca-Love-Kourlis.pdf

                You can roll your eyes and call it “loony tunes,” but until you can refute the actual legislation, congressional reports, urban policy research, and judicial training materials I just linked—you're not debating. You’re just parroting dismissive rhetoric that protects a deeply flawed system.
          • AnonymousJuly 23, 2025
            “We do? I don’t. It makes zero sense to me. Could you help me understand it?”

            Totally agree. When someone cries day and night about losing their kids but then refuses opportunities to spend time with them, they lose all credibility. I get that in some cases the costs might be prohibitive, in Lizzie’s case that was not an issue at all.
            • K.C.July 26, 2025
              Because accepting supervised visitation after an unconstitutional custody loss is often interpreted by courts and evaluators as conceding guilt or validating the underlying allegations—even when those allegations are false or unproven. It also imposes extreme financial, emotional, and legal burdens on the mother, reinforcing an unjust system and waiving important constitutional rights.

              Under family court precedent, agreeing to a supervised visitation order without formally objecting or appealing is often treated as tacit admission that supervision is warranted due to concerns such as abuse, instability, or alienation.

              According to Connecticut Practice Book §§ 25-26 and 25-27, failure to challenge a visitation restriction within a certain timeframe can be viewed as acquiescence.

              In legal interpretation, this can be used later to deny restoration of custody or normal visitation, as the parent “accepted” the status quo.

              Agreeing to supervised visitation without protest often means the court assumes you agree that something’s wrong with you, even if no evidence was ever presented or cross-examined.

              Supervised visitation often costs between $50–$200/hour in the U.S., according to a 2018 review by the Supervised Visitation Network and numerous state audits (e.g., OIG Reports on Title IV-D services).

              Mothers are often forced to pay for these services themselves, despite already being stripped of custody and resources.

              This financially punishes women for leaving abuse or defending themselves, particularly low-income mothers or disabled mothers.

              Resources:

              Federal Child Support Enforcement Handbook (OCSE, 2022).

              U.S. Dept. of Justice Civil Rights Memo on Title IV-D Funding and Family Violence (2016).

              In Santosky v. Kramer, 455 U.S. 745 (1982), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that parents have a fundamental liberty interest in the care, custody, and control of their children, and removal of that right must meet clear and convincing evidence.

              Many family courts circumvent this with emergency orders, ex parte motions, or vague GAL recommendations, without trial or evidence, then require the mother to submit to “reunification” and supervision.

              Rejecting supervision is often the only way to preserve legal standing to challenge these orders through federal due process or civil rights claims.

              Resource:

              NCJFCJ “Enhanced Judicial Response to Family Violence” Guide (2020).

              Protective mothers reject supervision not because they don’t love or want to see their children — but because they refuse to participate in a system designed to punish and silence them.

              Many are denied fair hearings, misrepresented by GALs, or retaliated against for reporting abuse (a violation of Mandated Reporter Protection under CAPTA and VAWA).

              Accepting supervised visitation sends the message: “You were right to take my child. I’ll pay you to see them for one hour a week.” This is unacceptable and morally bankrupt when the court itself has violated due process.

              If you’re truly seeking to “understand,” start here:

              Santosky v. Kramer, 455 U.S. 745 (1982)

              Troxel v. Granville, 530 U.S. 57 (2000)

              NCJFCJ publications on domestic violence and custody

              VAWA 2013/2022 reauthorizations, which prohibit use of reunification against protective parents

              Then ask yourself:

              Why are mothers being forced to pay to see the children they raised, loved, and protected—especially when no abuse was ever proven against them in any court?

              I can promise you if for whatever reason I was only allowed to see my kids with a supervisor I would see my kids with a supervisor every single moment I was allowed to. If I had to sell every possession I owned to do it.

              The main reason some of these mentally ill women won’t do it is because it doesn’t fit with their “my children were kidnapped and trafficked” story that they like to tell on social media. They don’t want to admit that their behavior around their children is what has caused them to require a supervisor.

                Did You Know?

                All kinds of “supervisors” with all kinds of training, philosophy and/or criminal intent involve themselves in “family court” cases. Some “family court supervisors” are good people with good intentions. Many aren’t.

                For example, in a divorce case in Connecticut: “… The Greenwich police investigation also resulted in the arrest of a child psychologist who was charged with failing to report child abuse or neglect to authorities, as required by state law.”

                For the past several decades, “family court supervisors” and “family court evaluators” have done whatever they want to do in those cases with virtually no oversight and little accountability. Leslie Eaton and others wrote about Stephen Herman and the “Soft Split” racket 20 years ago…. and Mr. Herman showed up in Connecticut’s Dulos fiasco 20 years later.

                Who choses “supervisors” in Westchester County “family court” cases?

                Who chose which supervisor(s) to supervise Liz?

                Since the father had so many concerns about Liz’s medical condition, did the supervisor(s) who supervised her have training in the proper handling of that alleged medical condition?

                It looks like the supervisor(s) in Liz’s children’s’ case followed “Dr.” Richard Gardner’s “threat therapy” protocol.
                • AnonymousJuly 27, 2025
                  Blaming Lizzie’s lack of interest in seeing her children with a supervisor on the supervisor is ludicrous. A professional was essential to disallow further abuse of her kids from her baseless insistence that their father was drugging and having sex with them. Lizzie would tell one of them they had to protect the other, often while yelling. It’s heartless not to see how stressful this is for a child.
              • AnonymousJuly 26, 2025
                Yes, the truth was, Lizzie apparently cared more about her misguided crusade against her husband than spending time with her children. She could have at least dropped her pedophilia rampage during visits with her children, but she was not willing to, even knowing that her accusations terrified them. It appeared her purpose for seeing her children was only to barrage them with harmful drama. The truth of the child visitation situation reveals her disingenuous rants about alienation. Pleasant, supportive visits with them showing her to be a trustworthy, nurturing parent would have helped her case tremendously.

Sorry but you can’t keep breaking court orders and breaking the law over and over again, harming your family in an extremely hurtful and public manner, and not expect any consequences, both from the legal system and your family. People who care about their children don’t do these things. If you have a problem with the other parent you handle it privately for the children’s sake. You certainly can’t publicly and falsely accuse people of terrible crimes with no evidence.

                The court appointees and attorneys were so bad I was terrified . Case in point. I agreed to therapy sessions in an effort to get help. The child ask her GaL to come do she could explain why she didn't feel safe, valued or heard. She was 16. Mary Bergamine turned it into it's all Mom's fault. Continued to come to sessions. The interfed with the child relationship with the therapist. Tainted all the information in the session. Attorneys have no business engaging in therapy sessions. A series of text messages was sent to her she ignored. The court appointed psychologist reduced the visitation to 5 minutes on the phone. A text message argument before 5 am appear to transpire. No phone calls happened. The psychologist was mia for 8 months. I got hauled back to court on contempt for ” parental alienation” of a 17 year old. There were no court orders for access. The order was for therapy. Which was abandoned because of lack of progress. Dad continue to blame everyone but himself for the condition of the relationship. Instead of my assigned attorney from freed marcroft getting a bogus contempt motion dropped. I paid approximately $10 thousand dollars to the firm . about $4000 was fighting with the attorney Courtney over the agreement she wanted me to sign. Sighting costs effective over best interest. I got locked out of the family relations meeting. A phone call to Joseph Ditunno where he told me parents are asked not to attend because they are too emotional. If family relations officers are not equipped to handle the emotional complexity of cases they are unfit for duty. The agreement made forced me to be solely responsible for drivers education. 2 more sessions of reunification therapy and then terminated. There is so much more that happened. I DON'T TRUST any one involved in family court. If I lost custody and had to attend supervised visits I am 100 percent sure more games would be played for the financial benefits to the court system ” professionals”. I am absolutely discussed with the entire system. I don't believe a word anyone outside a few I know well. No, I did not loose custody because I documented the entire circus act. If it wasn't for other moms coming forward I would never have been able to protect myself or the child from the financially driven custody flipping game. So I get why people refuse.

            If you're truly seeking to “understand,” start here:

            Santosky v. Kramer, 455 U.S. 745 (1982)

            Troxel v. Granville, 530 U.S. 57 (2000)

            NCJFCJ publications on domestic violence and custody

            VAWA 2013/2022 reauthorizations, which prohibit use of reunification against protective parents

            Then ask yourself:

            Why are mothers being forced to pay to see the children they raised, loved, and protected—especially when no abuse was ever proven against them in any court?
            • AnonymousJuly 27, 2025
              The fact that you use a lot of words doesn’t make it true. Accepting supervised visitation is an admission that you have nothing to hide and you welcome someone else’s observation of your interactions with your children. It demonstrates that you put spending time with your children over your own interests. People are put into supervised visitation when they have demonstrated behavior that is harmful to their children. You don’t leave children in a potentially dangerous situation while going through a lengthy criminal trial. This is for the protection of children. Lizzie didn’t have to pay a penny for this. The court assigns these costs to both parents based on their incomes. Lizzie had none, Brian had a lot, his income paid for everything.

      I have so much feeling on all of this. I connected with Lizzie right at the beginning of all of this. I’m an alienated parent and a mutual friend put us in touch. After our first, (hour long, at least ) conversation I knew immediately there was mental issues at play for her. She spoke hurriedly and she refused to have a two way conversation. She became so fixated on this pedophile thing to turn her kids against their dad even though she was cheating and had a good coke habit. All of that backfired. But she still ran with it. Relentlessly. And absolutely to the detriment of her children. Mixed in with all of her other conspiracies. She loved her children but she loved her posts and the reactions they garnered. SM perpetuated her demise. I watched it in real time. There was an entire group called her “flying monkeys” because she was the wicked witch whom desired likes and follows moreover than her actual life. She gives bad name to the “alienation industry” and she was not alienated. Every attempt attempt was made to getting her stopped from damaging her children. She was not alienated. She literally created all of this. Through her life and her death.

          Her husband had patience with her for so long. She harassed him for over 7 years because she wanted him to go ballistic like she did about her accusations in regard to a private school and her complaints about a summer camp. She accused him of being complicit in pedophilia because he didn't react in the manner she desired. He told her she was hurting their children and asked her to stop for years. She had other symptoms of mania and bipolar disorder for years as well. Then, in 2020 she launched her caustic public campaign against him after she claimed she saw suspicious online activity. She barraged him with texts at that time and claimed his responses were evidence of his pedophilia with their children. This type of mental illness is very tough to deal with, because serious delusions are involved which Lizzie appeared to fully believe, although she never presented real evidence. Yet people would believe her without asking for evidence due to her overwhelming gift of gab.

              Again, Lizzie has never posted any evidence that Brian was “Jessie”, never posted any evidence that “Jessie” was sexually soliciting children, never posted any evidence that Ron Barry, the assistant principal whose letters Brian saved, sexually abused anyone. In her hours and hours of ranting and troves of documents that she posted on dropbox, in her court hearing transcripts and lawsuits, not a shred of evidence of any of this was ever presented. It was all in her mind. If Brian did have a profile called “Jessie” on moviestarplanet.com, my guess is Lizzie had him create it in order to monitor the site, a site she was obsessing over because she found out her kids had been on it in school. She then turned around and tried to use this as evidence of pedophilia. She was a diabolical liar.

        Liz can’t defend herself from Heaven. Those detailed accusations up there are harsh words.

        You wrote, “I’m an alienated parent and a mutual friend put us in touch”. 🤔 Really?

        You wrote, “After our first, (hour long, at least ) conversation I knew immediately there was mental issues at play for her”. 🧐 Oh?

        As an “alienated parent”, have you never noticed any of those same “mental issues at play” in you? For example, “She spoke hurriedly and she refused to have a two way conversation.” Sounds like she was stressed to the max. Most parents who are severely punished in “family courts” for protecting children in sexual abuse cases throughout New England have, at one time or another, acted that same way. Look up “stress hormones”. Look up “PTSD”. Look up “symptoms of gaslighting”.

        You wrote, “She became so fixated on this pedophile thing to turn her kids against their dad …”

        ”this pedophile thing”?

        If Liz’s concerns were legitimate concerns, do you expect readers of your comments to dismiss those legitimate concerns as irrelevant?

        You wrote, “even though she was cheating and had a good coke habit” packs a whallop.

        How did you reach your conclusions about “cheating” and a “coke habit”?

        “… mixed in with all of her other conspiracies. …” moves from your specifics to a broad brush to attack Liz’s general character in order get your reader to dismiss her main concerns about the corruption in Westchester family courts. Are you saying there’s no corruption in Westchester county family courts?

        Are you saying there’s no such thing as sexual abuse of children or that it’s not a big deal?

        No such thing as distraught protective parents severely punished in “family courts”?

        How about: “She loved her children but she loved her posts and the reactions they garnered …”?

        Do you want your readers to think Liz loved “her posts and the reactions” more than she loved her children?! WTH?

        You wrote, “There was an entire group called her ‘flying monkeys’ …”

        Are you saying “an entire group” saw the evidence Liz presented to the authorities?

        You’re a good writer. You seem to be smart and yet, you wrote, “She gives bad name to the ‘alienation industry’ and she was not alienated.” 🧐 Huh?

        If you were an alienated parent, you wouldn’t put that term in quotation marks and you’d do your best to give the alienation industry the worst name you could.

        If you were an alienated parent, you would also know the nuances you seem to miss.

        Are you actually an alienated parent or just pretending?

The term Alienation is used to describe anyone who is not seeing their children or have 50/50 custody. It's got nothing to do with how the parents arrived there. DV peritrators, substance abusers, sexually inappropriate or sexual molestation. Using children as a shield to stop the court from taking action on their behavior.

            It's possible she knew he was going to divorce her and figured this was a way she could get the house, the kids, everything. But I tend to think it's more likely that she had a delusional break, but once Brian got her out of the house it just snowballed into vengeance. Her accusations became more and more extreme and bizarre over the months when she realized she wasn't going to get her way by steamrolling judges into buying her “indoctrinated into pedophilia” story.

    Thank you Frank for making this critical point:

    “If she was mentally ill, she was treated as a legal liability rather than a health emergency”

    Family court judges throughout the country are relief on evaluators who hold no license to diagnose personality disorders and are waiving around these fraudulent findings and telling the world anyone with a personality disorder cannot parent, and is a danger to their children.

    Such actions are criminal and are part of the financial enterprise of child custody sales.

    These same judges who suggest danger and incompetence never order a parental fitness exam. – no one is ever determined to be unfit yet no contact orders go one for years.

    At the same time the judges demand these dangerous personality disordered parents (in name only) are to work full time and pay child support for life even when they have no intention of ever letting the traumatized children see the targeted parent again.

      Mentally ill people have lots of rights in the United States, including the right to refuse treatment. Unless they are literally holding a gun to their head or pointing one at someone else, it's nearly impossible to have an adult involuntarily committed on the grounds of posing an imminent danger to themselves or others.

      Lizzie's mentally ill rantings did not constitute a medical psychiatric emergency in the eyes of the law.

      The families of mentally ill people are completely powerless when their loved one is in a delusional state and refuses help. It's why you see so many people in full-blown psychosis wandering the streets in cities.

      It's not that their families don't care.

      Their families literally can't do a thing about it.

She viciously attacked and harassed these people, calling them Ghislaines, pedophile supporters etc. she screamed at people walking down the street and in stores. She called people’s employers and said they were pedos. She could act somewhat normal and stable online when she wanted to, but in real life she was acting psychotic.

  • AnonymousJuly 17, 2025
    I’ve been wondering if you would post about this. Lizzie was active in the Fairfield county tennis and paddle tennis community. She maintained a membership at the Italian center of Stamford for several years. She wasn’t homeless. I was forced to have her involved in my life due to another person’s choices. For about half a year I didn’t even know her last name or anything about her background. My children were exposed to her and she terrified them. Again, this was before we had any knowledge of her situation. She was fully identified to me by someone who knew her from paddle tennis matches. Imagine learning that name and knowing your own children were now being exposed to someone courts decided was unsafe for her own. I do believe her ex husband was able to use the courts effectively and efficiently in a way that most people don’t have the ability to accomplish. The biggest tragedy of her death is that her children can no longer hold out hope that their mother will get the help she desperately needed. Mental heath issues don’t discriminate based on gender or wealth. I’m certain Lizzie felt tortured deep into her soul as a result of being removed from her children’s lives, but as she relentlessly and recklessly continued to document her experiences over social media, she was actually reinforcing why she was not a safe parent. Her children and her ex were entitled to the protections they were granted through the courts. There doesn’t seem to be any evidence that her ex tried to do anything more than shield his children and attempt to provide them with an opportunity to move forward. He didn’t engage in any social media retaliation or share any details of what the 150 page document which granted him emergency custody was comprised of. This is a terrible story from start to finish and I hope her children can find closure. The only indisputable fact is that her children suffered the most out of anyone.

      Ty for sharing this info. It’s very sad that she’s no longer with us, especially for her children who are adults. I also helped Lizzie a lot, which required time & effort. She had angry outbursts and did not treat people well – she was belligerent to judges and police, which caused many of the issues she complained about (such as arrests for “disorderly conduct”). She lied often. She insisted she had never had a mental diagnosis, however she was diagnosed with bi polar disorder many years ago. She exhibited the usual severe symptoms – sexual promiscuity and uncontrollable spending, which resulted in the conservator appointment. She inappropriately accused every father of pedophilia, often in casual conversation. Once she was done with help from compassionate individuals she would cut off from them. She traumatized every person she met by immediately sharing her accusations of her x husband’s alleged pedophilia, which she had no evidence for, despite her claims that texts proved his actions, which was untrue. She claimed she was arrested for saying she loved her children which was also untrue. The restraining orders were placed to protect her children’s mental and emotional well being, by their choice – but such Her claims she could not see her children were not true either – since the children were traumatized by her public, baseless accusations that their father was having sex with them, her visits required a supervisor who would not allow her to caustically bring up pedophilia. Parents should not bring such personal, destructive accusations against each other publicly! This is the issue at hand, instead of blindly believing everything Lizzie posted. She was unfortunately tormented by her own mental illness. I wish she had valued her life more, she certainly had dynamic energy. It would seem that activists who are concerned about children would seek to weigh the truth from both sides of such controversies. Rest in peace Lizzie, you had tremendous support from friends who cared about you, may their love and prayers guide you.

Demonstrate that you are stable and willing to put your children’s wellbeing ahead of your own interests. That means stop insisting to them without evidence that they’re being molested by their father, stop posting your family’s private issues on social media, stop violating court orders, submit to mental competency exams, create a stable home for them, etc. would also help if you don’t shout over everyone and call judges criminals and kidnappers in your court proceedings. Lizzie wasn’t willing or able to follow their advice. Lawyers can’t “advocate” for her stance that their father is an abuser and a pedophile if they have no evidence that it’s true.

              Evidence of fitness. Producing text messages and phone records. Criminal records and witnesses. The court system has to decide fitness. Fathers right activist and the unrecognized practices of clinical psychology are dominating and controlling the family court system. Making abuse legal under the Alienation umbrella.. Through the mask of 503c fatherhood initiative. CEO monitized white men. Abusing tax payer dollars hiding under a minority mask.. Women pay taxes and vote. We are done allowing you to dominate the conversation. Jennifer law was passed like it or not. Equal and shared parenting and the Merry band of coaching services are trying to control the conditions women and children live in. It needs to come to an end. Judicial fitness needs to be addressed and the Alienation industry death grip on the family court house needs to come to an immediate halt. The criminal justice system and prosicution and diversionary program need massive clean up.

Not tolerating his families abuse. Suddenly I was a malicious alienator. Recruited the girlfriend's parents attorney to be the GaL. Received coaching services to fill out the court paperwork and present false scenarios to the court. Women encounter this hourly in the state of Connecticut. The less financially valued in the state. Driven by sexist mysogonistic state agreement. To decrimalize abuse, provide access to ensure the angry father pays his child support.

      You can't “help” an adult get treatment who refuses to get treatment. You can't “5150” someone and get them involuntarily committed unless you can prove they are an imminent threat of harm to themselves and others. And the standard of proof is very high to protect the rights of the mentally ill person.

      It looks like she was involuntarily committed at least once, but she insisted that was yet another act of 'corruption.'

      The people who truly harmed Lizzie were the ones who enabled her delusions by pretending they believed what she was saying was true and pretending that she was not mentally ill in hopes of getting some of her money or otherwise getting something from her.

              No, deciding your husband is a pedophile based on a lot of random snippets of info you have woven together in your mind is a personality disorder. Airing your family’s private and complex issues daily on social media where everyone who knows your husband and children sees it is a personality disorder. Violating orders of protection over and over again, screaming at random people about pedophilia in public places, refusing to see your children on supervised visits then telling everyone they were kidnapped and trafficked is a personality disorder. Lying constantly about being homeless and destitute is a personality disorder. I could go on but you get the gist…

        That's the point many are trying to make about reunification therapy. Many mentally ill patients go off their medication. Lizzy may or may not have been one of them. It's a common problem. Many addicted parents lie and do not stop abusing substance. Many abusers can't stop abusing. Yet the court orders reunification therapy anyway. Hypocrisy is among us. Most women don't support women who are abusing the court. However, the men's rights groups will let anyone in who will support the objective.

      There were desperate attempts to get Lizzie to accept mental health treatment. I imagine the order of protection was a last ditch attempt to try and force her into treatment, Unfortunately unless someone is threatening physical violence or suicide (and Lizzie knew the law and was very careful to never step into this territory) it is virtually impossible to force them into treatment.

        Lizzie said she gave evidence of sexualized role play in online children’s games to law enforcement. If she gave evidence to authorities in Westchester County, how many people in Westchester County dismissed her concerns and/or hid evidence?

        A sane Connecticut judge in what looks like the same kind of “family court” case in Connecticut wrote this about that Connecticut case:

        ”… putting aside all the allegations and sexual abuse, which have not been proven, if nothing else, those discussions — a reasonably prudent mother, similarly situated would have to be concerned by reading those chatroom discussions. I don't think any objective observer could think otherwise. …”

    It's very interesting that this woman who was well educated to have a sudden mental break at an older age. Most individuals with mental illness show signs and symptoms in their early adulthood. Around early 20s. . An accomplished nurse and expert in the a field involving children. Most who go into these fields are empathetic ,kind and caring. Like Catherine Kassnoff, she has been made into a villain. The children didn't appear to be trying to make a great escape when they were living with her. Mental illness is difficult to be around. If anything she said was true, it may be years before the children now adults would address it. For many years a step father sexually abused one of his step daughter. Years later the family completely aware that it happened never seem to shy away from him. The molested children grow into adulthood to have addiction issues and struggle in life. The others who were not molested acknowledge it happened, but never turned the man in. Family secrets are often kept within the family. There is a large number of people invested in that world like to say these things never happen , but they do. As a lawyer it would be hard to believe he would make such a statement. The majority of women who have been through family court know evidence is not sought after. They go out of their way to pretend these situations don't happen. Children are starting to realize when the courts switch custody, they are in a no win situation. There is a large group of people who are invested outside the court house who don't like anyone to know that these things happen. Only time will tell. The louder you are the more they claim insanity. It's a don't ask don't tell situation in the family court system.

          ‘Disclose’ abuse? Or ‘claim’ abuse? I am a woman and parent, and I used to believe and cite that statistic (Joan Meier research, right?), but frankly the attitude of some moms, including several posters on here, has me seriously questioning that research. Unfortunately, some women lie. Some women are disordered. Some women exaggerate. Some women project their own background and trauma onto their current relationships. If we won’t accept these excuses from men, we shouldn’t accept them from women. I’ll admit that a surprising number of the women I have met in the family court ‘activist’ community do not seem credible. I want to believe and support all women, but often their stories of abuse obviously don’t add up, and you can quickly see they are their own worst enemies, and the reason they are struggling in the system. Lizzie was one of these women, as were some of her friends and supporters during this time.

Lizzie was brilliant and as such a very articulate and convincing mentally ill person.

      Lizzie's children are adults and have consistently maintained that their father has never abused them in any way. They are brilliant, highly educated and and sophisticated adults with a wealth of resources including doctors and therapists (which they need due to dealing with their mother's severe mental illness) and literally no one who knows them believes they could be confused or brainwashed about this.

      I met Lizzie a number of times and she was obviously bi polar. Those who knew her from her community indicated this was a long standing issue, and there were great efforts by the family to help her, which she steadfastly refused. And not to quibble, but she was hardly ‘an accomplished nurse and expert’. She had not worked in well over a decade. She lived a beautiful lifestyle primarily because of her husband’s hard work and efforts to support her. No where in your post do you consider the other side.

      When I knew her, Lizzie screamed and ranted and posted online non stop about her husband and other people, without one iota of proof. It is shameful that so many people amplified her voice without proof. What sort of person does this? What sort of person doesn’t consider the effects of these behaviors on her partner who had long supported her while juggling a big law job and 3 teens? On her children? The ones she claims to be fighting so hard for. She put her family through absolute hell, and as sad as it is that she was separated from her own family, it was of her own doing.

            Your can attempt to insult people asking questions to better understand this situation. There are thousands of Americans complaining about the family court system. There holding hearings in Arizona. Perhaps you don't like people asking questions the court system should have. Doing better means asking difficult questions and getting facts and answers. If you don't like the general information that helps people better understand what the United States family court system. Including information on this case you are part of the problem, not the solution. Giving credit to the accomplishments to get a degree from a well respected University is not snobbery. It giving credit to Lizzy for an accomplishment she earned. Sorry it's a threat to you that she had accomplishments.

              You really shouldn’t project your personal trauma onto others, especially when it has the potential to harm. There is no evidence Brian was a pedophile and your extrapolating that Lizzie went to Columbia 20 years ago and therefore she was accomplished and couldn’t have been bipolar doesn’t change that. It’s fine to ask questions but people have answered them repeatedly, yet you continue to twist the narrative to fit your disordered view of the world, which sadly seems to come from your own abuse experience. Family court is a pit, but this wasn’t one of those cases.

                There is no projection of trauma. These are questions in which people are answering. I don't believe that the children were abused I have not seen evidence that demonstrate this. I have not seen evidence Lizzy is crazy either. This is the darvo we are discussing. When asking questions and digging into details you are labeled projecting. The Alienation industry will do just about anything to keep their jobs. Using and manipulation to stop people from asking questions. Trauma survivor are not dangerous. Abusive parent is not harmless.

              This isn’t about “the family court system”. This is about a family dealing with their wife and mother’s severe mental illness and death. The last thing they need is to be a poster family for some public anti-court movement that has nothing to do with them. What many of her followers can’t seem to comprehend is that some children NEED to be protected from a parent and the legal system is how one properly goes about doing that. Some people ARE too mentally ill to manage their own affairs and need to be put under guardianship. I’m sure there are probably abuses of this system. This isn’t one of them. These children don’t need people calling their dad a pedo and possibly a murderer, posting his photo and place of employment, all in the name of someone’s cause. It’s reckless and irresponsible to publicly accuse someone of horrendous crimes with no evidence.

      Please. They were teens when she first made these accusations and now they are adults. They are brilliant, two of them attend Duke University. They have all the resources in the world at their fingertips. The idea that they are “brainwashed” to accept sexual abuse, rape etc. and reject their mother is ludicrous. Their father is a gentle, kind person who has never once lashed out at or retaliated against Lizzie despite the horrible things she's said and done. She was very ill and he did everything he could to help her. Ultimately he had to protect the children or he might have ended up losing them too.

      There is a heartbreaking letter out there from her son Max, telling her he loved her, but that she was making these accusations because she was unwell. He begged her to get help and said he would not contact her again until she did. She immediately posted it it on social media and accused Brian of writing it. It's so sad that even her children couldn't get through to her.

        Lizzie also posted a video of her chasing Max around the Duke campus. He called security and asked her to be removed, mentioning the restraining order. He told her he loved her but she needed help. He was very disturbed by her behavior. There was another video of her screaming at her daughter about pedophilia on the beach, despite the order of protection. This was why she was incarcerated, she kept breaking restraining orders and the children were extremely vulnerable. Yet she claimed she was arrested for telling her children she loved them. Most of her stories inverted the truth. These videos have been removed from YouTube.

Chief among the skeptics is her son, Madison Hamburg, a filmmaker who directed a four-part HBO documentary about events before and after his mother’s death. He's doing his own investigation and continues to battle the Madison Police Department for copies of the complete case file, a fight that went all the way up to the state’s highest court. …

    for Elizabeth Weinstein, her children and ex husband. At what one time she was a loving mother and wife.

    She was also bipolar.

    Watch the video she shot of herself and her husband. Tell me you cannot see he still cared for her despite being verbally attacked.

She made up some outrageous stuff over the years.
          • AnonymousJuly 25, 2025
            The videos she posted online exposed her modus operandi in so many ways. Unbeknownst to her. An example of her flawed thinking is the expectation that posting those videos was going to help her case. Even in her interviews, if you listen with discernment, the flaws in her reasoning poke through. But she was convincing as all hell.

            And she was a dynamic, well versed, adorable force of nature. There was that side to her that would be the only person who understood something you were going through, that unique, intelligent, feisty awareness she had about certain things.

            It’s best to look at this with compassion. People who spent a lot of time and effort helping her are processing the loss. And trying to piece together what happened, the intricacies of her plight, her illness in the grieving process.

            A sad story for everyone involved. And extremely confusing, until it becomes obvious it’s publicly about the danger of social media in the hands of a charismatic but delusional person. Awareness of how that can be destructive in general is a good thing.

The report on Lizzy is not confirmed. But we know the state of Connecticut will label it a suicide no matter what. That was a long period of mania. With several reasons to become depressed in between. If she where truly a danger to herself then she would continue to be held. Like the former Republican candidate against Chris Murphy.

Who happened to speak out about pedophilia, the court system and malicious treatment. Much compression for domestic violence perpetrators who are fathers. A mental health crisis. Acting on the pressures of financials and all the crazy women who complain to the court house. To blame for their maltreatment. Half responsible for strangulation, black eyes and sexual assault.

          You’re speaking in generalities, this is a specific case. Yes, from what I’ve seen Mr. Weinstein is practically a saint. He put up for years with a “norm” that most would never have been able to live with. He acted to try and help Lizzie and protect the children when he had no other choice. Despite years of her trashing him, harassing him, stalking him, screaming vile things at him and his children in public places, he never said a bad word about her.

          I am quite certain that the man is the villain and the woman the victim in many cases. Just not in this case. Brian Weinstein shouldn’t be shamed and punished for what other men have done to other women.

That is not an admission, he’s clearly trying to calm her down in the midst of an escalation of years of similar accusations, since 2013 or even earlier. Always with flimsy, nonsensical evidence.
    • Niki StoneJuly 20, 2025
      I am surprised to hear that there was not more evidence than this and I will be fact checking this as allegations like this need to be handled in a particular way, meaning if you suspect this behavior you take your child to a specialist and allow them to make a CPS report. Unless you have caught them in the act. Either way, CPS can claim you coached your child.

      I would not say this is to calm her down.

      Who tolerates their martial partner making these allegations, especially not for years. I had false allegations and I couldn't stomach it and the harm it would cause my child.

      Secondly, this is such an odd way to engage about this topic.

      Thirdly, I have a very hard time understanding how anyone could make up allegations that were not true. However, I need to understand more about the context of this. Without context it's too hard to say, as he could actually be saying, I want your indoctrination to stop, if she had been saying it for 7 years.

      I look at all these cases in depth, as I have a high profile case too and I have a huge amount of evidence. It's important for the integrity of my own case that I am objective.

      I would appreciate it if someone could help me understand this better as I am just in shock that this is all there is… It took me 5 years to gather enough evidence to feel like CPS would not abuse me again, and it still wasn't enough.

      Right now I am questioning why he stayed with her, I understand divorce settlements but that is no excuse as if it's a lie, it's sexual exploitation of a child.

      I'm questioning why they are using grooming language in a way that looks like they may have both considered it, and she decided it was wrong.

      And also questioning why there isn't more recorded conversations, why she didn't take her kids to a specialist – just so many questions.

      Many of the things that happened to her, happened to me, so her story is in alignment with elite coverups, but the logic isn't matching up for me.

      Please let me know if you have more details, as this could be an important case to highlight mine, but I won't be able to use it, if this is all there is sadly.

I'm not sure Lizzy is a good example. Children some times take years to disclose. They often are afraid and have been threatened by the peritrators. It's a complex situation. I'm not sure that she didn't just find stuff on line and assume. It would a shock to find pedophile type stuff within your spouse computer or otherwise. I'm sure any parents in their right mind would no longer feel safe. In the words of attorneys unfortunately you have to wait until something happens to the child. Sexual abuse and statutory rape of a non biological child does not stop access. A stepfather can rape the stepdaughter and get out of jail and receiving access time. It's messed up

              No need for FOIA as Lizzie out it all out on social media herself. Have you read the transcripts of Lizzie’s hearings, where she rants and raves at the judges, refuses to stop talking for more than two seconds, calls them criminals and kidnappers? Do you think that behavior in a court proceeding is going to go well for someone? Did you see the video of how she behaved during her only supervised visitation? Have you read her lawsuits where she states that her husband is a pedophile but provides zero evidence that he is one? Do you know how many times she violated the order of protection, and stalked and harassed her family and other people? The craziest thing is that she herself posted all this material with the belief that it made her look good! Lizzie was allowed supervised visitation, provided with generous financial support, and numerous attempts were made to get her medical treatment. She should have been incarcerated a long time ago but her cases were dismissed because she was not competent to stand trial. Far from being corrupt in Brian’s favor, the courts were more than fair to her and left Brian with little recourse to protect the kids.

                Plus, Lizzie attacked and was banned from two reputable private schools in Westchester she was also accusing of promoting pedophilia. Lizzie constantly accused people and organizations of pedophilia; she was on a delusional rampage for years. Her friend Catherine kassenoff was similarly mentally ill. Any content providers who make money from interviewing women making such damaging claims are contributing to the harming the children involved. There are other well known similar cases involving a mentally ill mother who is the one damaging her children. It’s unacceptable for podcasters and activist types to use Lizzie’s life to promote their crusade without taking the time to research the details of these cases and to listen to people who personally knew these individuals.

            There are many problems with substantiations. What is a fit parent? What constitutes abuse to one judge is not always the same to another. What is neglect? Not paying your child support is neglect, yet CPS in not knocking on those doors. I think the judges are intentionally ignoring it. Publish the cases without the full names. Should we ask DCF supervisor Anothny Gay CT. Publicly admits to bipolar disorder. Spent time in jail and states the mother was a barrier gate keeper to his relationship to his first child. In the fatherhood hearings. What is his role in the botched prosecution of dv peps? So, if they are molested everyone should know about it? You are not protecting children; you're protecting the accused.

She said he was using other similar sites as well but has never revealed proof, despite her detailed posts. She was banned from a prestigious private school in Westchester in 2013 for harassment regarding that site. She had called the police on the school. She had also thrown a fit in regard to a summer camp. These issues had been going on for many years and were harmful for her children and family.

        She says she gave Brian’s laptop with the pedo evidence from the websites to the police in 2020, and she claims they returned the laptop to Brian. Why didn’t she take screenshots? It’s not like her not to document everything. Lizzie would bristle when asked about this important evidence, saying she didn’t want to go into further details. This evidence is the most important aspect of her case. Whether her claims are true or not, these situations involving children should not be made public. It’s a serious breach of a child’s privacy. The young podcasters who interviewed her blindly believe everything without pressing her for evidence. She was definitely paranoid about pedophilia – she constantly accused people – there’s a video somewhere of her screaming this at the CT governor at a public event. She would often casually accuse the father of any child with emotional issues of being a pedo. She says her father was a pedo who abused her, and that her mother doesn’t believe her.

      In contrast to the article, based on what I know of the system, I would say if it was worded like this, I agree it's more open for interrupting what it means – but I still don't see it as an admission of harming his own children. It sounds to me like he is was caught with csam, as a possibility.

      My points again in the other comment are similar, who lets their wife talk to them like that? What type of wet noodle is this man? If she is mentally unstable, she needs clear boundaries on topics like this, and if she doesn't respect them, she needs to be warned false allegations is sexual exploitation.

      Reference:

      On May 20, 2020, Lizzie said she made a “discovery.”

      She told him to leave the house. He did.

      She texted him after he drove away.

      “We have all acknowledged that you have been indoctrinated into the practice of pedophilia.”

      He was a lawyer. He replied, “I want the indoctrination of pedophilia to stop.”

      Was this an admission? Or a clumsy, placating reply to a woman coming undone?

      In context, it’s clear: he was not agreeing with her. He was trying to deescalate.

        IMO he recognized she was splitting and was trying to placate her in the text. If he could calm her down, her emotional episode would eventually pass.

        I think he was trying to do the best thing for his family. He screwed up marrying her and he was trying to figure out the best thing moving forward for his kids. He knew she was mentally ill and he just wanted to calm the storm. Treating the relationship like a normal relationship wouldn't work.

      If this is true, it could be indictive of a bipolar disorder. Someone forced to leave the home, should be saving everything they can and cutting back to make sure the children have security.

Countless women have been thrown into psychiatric wards, force fed medications, continually humiliated, suppressed, and ultimately, pushed out, broken. Thank you for covering these sad stories.

        Why wouldn’t he sue everyone he can? Gerard Adelman and Jane Grossman threw out the actual facts of the case. Their creative fiction was social engineering which established new “facts”.

        Those new “facts” set stage for all kinds of potentially very lucrative lawsuits. More lawsuits feed lawyers and judges.

        Connecticut’s “family courts” were designed to destroy families … to eventually destroy the state … to eventually destroy the nation.
        • AnonymousJuly 28, 2025
          These are the outrageous statements. The state is not destroying families. They are creating system that prioritize fatherhood for funding. As a result it's created a generous funding stream in family law. Fighting for the cause. Fathers under any conditions. With a few cases where the father has to prove himself. Evidence is not admitting or ignoring by judges. Children support is behind the horror show as well as to avoid criminals charges. Forcing co parenting. Using parental alienation/ gatekeeper as a form of punishment for reporting. Collecting the badly behaved mothers to further the desired outcome.

The psychologist complaints are not public unless there is an actual investigation that leads to actions. The bar association doesn't publish unless there is action. The complaints should be public with name redacted or initials. The cover of darkness. Found ” guilty” ” not guilty”. Let the complaints be published.

          Would you put Lisa Knopf on that list? She’s the GAL in my case and she finds an excuse for extreme behaviors by my ex husband and then comes down on me for expecting literally anything at all out of him. I’ve lost track of the number of times I’ve been told “it’s not illegal to be a bad father” and “he doesn’t have to take his parenting time, you just have to be ready to step up if he decides not to. But there’s no circumstances where you can withhold the children, or he’ll take you for contempt and win”. Meanwhile he was abusing drugs and alcohol as per testing and his own admission. It’s like being in a funhouse mirror maze. Except it is no fun at all.

            I'm on your page. While Mr. Hale was allowed to go to court due to substance abuse, women are not afforded the same protection. These Garduim ad lithium are a disgrace. I'm not sure who is More unsafe these fathers gaining access because the government paid projects, or the family court appointments. I call a red flag on the public defenders office. The entire agencies in the Connecticut partnership.
          • K.C.July 26, 2025
            You just described exactly how the family court system is designed to operate—not in the best interest of children, but to protect and preserve a policy-driven, revenue-generating framework that excuses abusive, neglectful, or absentee fathers while punishing protective mothers for asking for basic accountability.

            I completely understand what you're going through, because I’ve experienced the same. That line — “it’s not illegal to be a bad father” — is a weapon the court system uses against mothers to justify unbalanced expectations. They minimize even documented abuse, substance use, and outright neglect by fathers as “normal” or “not illegal,” yet they’ll put a mother through hell for even the most minor resistance or complaint. You’re not in a custody case — you’re trapped in a court-sanctioned gaslight machine.

            The Guardian ad Litem in your case, Lisa Knopf, isn’t the exception. She’s part of a wider institutional pattern that includes judges, GALs, custody evaluators, and even state-funded nonprofits who are trained under AFCC-style frameworks to treat abuse, addiction, and even coercive control as “high conflict.” That training is often influenced by figures like Marsha Kline Pruett, who authored the “high-conflict couple” theory that’s now used to force co-parenting with abusers. Their models dismiss legitimate safety concerns and reframe them as “gatekeeping.”

            This is deeply tied to the Fatherhood Initiative, a federally funded program that grew out of the 1996 welfare reform act, PRWORA (Public Law 104-193). The initiative was created not to protect families—but to reduce welfare rolls and shift financial responsibility back onto noncustodial fathers. According to the Congressional Research Service (CRS RL31025): https://www.congress.gov/bill/104th-congress/house-bill/3734

            > “Fatherhood programs… are closely linked to the federal government’s goals of decreasing welfare dependence by increasing child support collections and promoting marriage.”

            👉 CRS Report RL31025

            https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/RL/RL31025

            That means courts are under constant pressure to keep fathers “engaged” (even if they’re harmful or inconsistent) so they can meet performance metrics tied to child support enforcement and marriage promotion funding. There’s no “vast conspiracy”—it’s literally written into law and enforced through policy.

            In Connecticut, this gets even worse. The Auditors of Public Accounts’ 2024 audit revealed that:

            Diversionary and fatherhood programs tied to the courts lacked internal controls

            Oversight committees were operating without statutory authority

            Court-appointed actors referred families to programs without proper regulation or auditing

            APA Judicial Branch Audit 2024 (search “Judicial Branch”)

            https://www.cga.ct.gov/apa/

            And don’t forget: Sean Scanlon, the State Comptroller who controls contracts, funding, and audit compliance, is married to Meghan Scanlon—Director of CCADV and head of the new “Connecticut Response to Family Violence” committee. The audit found that this committee operates with no legal authority under judicial statutes, yet is deeply embedded in court-connected programming. Meghan also has a public history of stalking and an illegal computer access case from her college years. Yet she now influences court-related domestic violence policy.

            So when the courts say:

            > “He doesn’t have to take his parenting time, but you must always comply.”

            Or

            “It’s not illegal to be a bad father.”

            —what they’re really saying is:

            > “We don’t care how harmful or unreliable he is. You’re the default parent, the scapegoat, the one to control.”

            You’re absolutely right to feel like it’s a funhouse mirror maze, and you’re not alone. This is not incompetence—it’s deliberate policy execution rooted in politics, funding, and institutional loyalty to a father-centered narrative.

            You're not unstable. You're not asking too much. You're just living in a system where being a good mother is treated as a liability—because it threatens the system's real priority: preserving appearances and collecting funding.
            • AnonymousJuly 27, 2025
              Absolutely brilliantly stated. While Mr Hale was allowed to protect the children from the effects of a substance abuse. Many mothers are not given the same rights. If he can stay sober long enough for a court hearing he is good enough.

            It is called neglect. Children are being used for “access”. I wonder how many other children are used for family court statistics for more funding? Add Mary Bergamine to the list. It's not illegal, but it is detrimental to the child. Fathers under any circumstances.

      He is admitted to practice before both state and federal courts in Connecticut and the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Mr. Einhorn is also admitted to practice before the United States Supreme Court.

      He presently serves on the Executive Committee of the Federal Practice Committee of the Connecticut Bar Association and the Executive Committee of the New Haven County Bar Association. Mr. Einhorn also serves as a Special Master in United States District Court in Connecticut and frequently lectures young lawyers on trial practice. He is also a member of the Connecticut Trial Lawyers Association.

      A graduate of Amherst College and the University of Connecticut School of Law, he was previously Executive Assistant to State Treasure Robert I. Berdon, and a reporter for the New Haven Register before coming to the Bar.

      He is also an Associate Fellow at Ezra Stiles College at Yale University. He is also a member of the Executive Committee of the Alumni Association of Amherst College.

      Mr. Einhorn was a Police Commissioner for the City of New Haven for nine years and served on the New Haven Board of Aldermen for sixteen years. He has served on most city boards and commissions, including the Redevelopment Authority, the Parks Commission, the Water Pollution Control Authority, various Charter revision Commissions, Chairman of the Redistricting Commission and Chairman of the Special Revenue Commission.

      He is a Justice of the Peace and for the last decade has served as the Chief Elections Moderator for the City of New Haven. Mr. Einhorn is President Eli Youth Lacrosse, a children's lacrosse league for the New Haven area and races sports cars in SCCA competition throughout New England. …”

As he entered the facility, he signed and dated a document certifying that he was aware that it is unlawful to bring weapons or contraband of any type into the facility and/or to pass the same to any detainee. A Wyatt Correctional Officer stationed in the lobby asked, “Are you gonna be passing anything to the detainees today?” Einhorn responded, “No, not today.”

      According to the Statement of Facts, the Wyatt’s Professional Standards Unit (“PSU”) observed Einhorn pass paperwork to at least two of the detainees he met.

        If only New York, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Maine, Arizona, Idaho, California etc. “family courts” weren’t so corrupted, many concerned citizens could more easily dismiss Liz’s claims of corruption in “family courts”.

        If only everyone would always say, “American family courts are GREAT courts that ALWAYS help families and children!”

        Unfortunately, no one says that because no one thinks that, anymore.

        After DECADES of corruption in New England family courts, comprehensive FOIA requests to verify that Liz wasn’t another victim of corrupted “family courts” would set many minds at ease.

        Copies of documents she distributed to government offices when asking for help would help a concerned public know what happened for sure in Liz’s case. Until then many can, will and should assume she was smart, strong, determined, fearless and murdered for knowing too much.

    Unlike the vast majority of protective moms and dads throughout our country who are maliciously targeted by family court judges and attorneys; who while living productive lives for decades walk naively into family court seeking a divorce and are blindsided, betrayed, and maligned by who?

    By attorneys on both sides of the aisle who collude with the lawyer gal and with the judges blessing traffic kids from a loving parent – and deliver for financial gain to the abusive parent. Usually it’s based on a court appointed quack who dies not posses the medical license required by states to make a medical diagnoses upon which the court can rely- no, these are the same names – known in each jurisdiction- they are the psychologists who complete fraudulent custody evaluations that no medical doctor or peer would ever publicly endorse – these evaluations are so blatantly fraud on every level that they deal them. – not to protect the children or the family but to protect the courts pet. The courts hired gun who will manufacture lies and bullshit and the lawyers and judge can rely on this one persons testimony to remove children from their home and place with the abusive ir paying parent.

    The tell in all of this is the custody evaluator does not file a form 136 to dcf/CPS as they are legally required to do if the even suspect abuse or neglect. Nope. That’s never done. Similarly the court appointed family therapist, also a mandated reporter never filed a form 136 to alert CPS/dcf either. Because there is no abuse or neglect. See how that works?

    Instead they call an ex parte hearing and the hired gun – the court pet – takes the stand on cue and delivers the fatal blow. The only one in court who doesn’t know what’s coming is the targeted parent. Once the kids are taken they will never be returned or reunited. That’s not how the game is played. This is what happened in the Jennifer Dulos case. He eval was sealed not to protect her but because it was total bullshit and would expose the court scam.

    The gal was in on it which is why Jen Dulos had filed motions against her. But Connecticut is known as the “head of the snake” and one of the deadliest places you can enter family court.

    Even with the public media attention no one examines the role of family court. People tried to protect Jennifer by keeping the eval sealed – they fell prey to the game of the well oiled machine. Had the eval been opened any medical doctor would tear it apart for the utter trash that it is.

    CT protects CT as most family court systems throughout the country protect themselves.

    Arizona and Idaho may pierce the veil and the children are coming.

    But the reunification therapists like Sidney and Robert Horwitz’s of CT, the custody evaluators like Jessica Biren Caverly and Linda Smith, the Gals like Lisa Knopf and Sue Coussineau and the judges like Jane Grossman and Chris Griffin, who have made millions from abusing and trafficking children continue to act with impunity.

    Why does gals have immunity or “quasi immunity”? Why do court appointed “professionals” have immunity or quasi-immunity and why is this u usual immunity status never revealed to the parents prior to appointments?

    Where on the court docket when it speaks of these court appointed “experts” and where on the contracts is this “immunity” disclosed? It’s a racket. It’s child abuse. It’s known. It’s time for it to end. And it will.

    Lizzie Harding was the exception to the rule. She did suffer from bi-polar but did not deserve to be arrested without bail and treated like a criminal when she simply had an illness. An illness diagnosed prior to family court.

    She should never have been isolated from her children. This should have been a strong medical approach not a criminal one.

      You are not aware of the level of trauma the children were experiencing.

        Some of us are. This is a sad situation. If Mr. Weinstein is innocent , which he could appear so. Imagine all the other parent accused of various reasons like psychology abusing their children. When the children are experiencing sexual abuse, physical, verbal and many other troublesome situations. Mr. Weinstein was equipped financially to fight the accusations. Imagine not having the financial resources or legal knowledge.

        When horrible “family court” lawyers, judges and “supervisors” etc. mismanage child custody cases, the children in those cases usually are traumatized. Which lawyers, judges, evaluators and supervisors mismanaged that case? What should have been done differently?

      Gal on the Dolus case was not on the approved list. Mawihinny plea deal to avoid the fraudulent family court secrets from getting out. Contempt motion against Michelle Traconsis dropped for exposing custody evaluation. There is nothing going on in the state leading criminal justice reform and the welfare reform act protecting children. It doesn't protect parents. Delusional or not Connecticut,New York, California and everywhere in between. Is hidding horrific acts against children and their parents.

      You forgot to mention your own personal referral network. Hired hits at the family court house. The network operating in the less financially gifted socioeconomic members of society. If we're going to name names put them all out there. Wealthy white people are not the only people dying in the state. Not the only ones suffering at the hands of the family court house.

      Louder for those in the back… many attempts were made to get Lizzie medically treated, to the point that she was even committed involuntarily for a while. She refused all evaluation and treatment. Patients cannot be held indefinitely unless they are threatening violence or suicide, Lizzie was smart enough not to do that. She could have had visitation with her children the entire time with a supervisor, after one visit during which she ranted the entire time about pedophilia she refused. She was only isolated from her children by choice and because she couldn’t or wouldn’t control her harmful behavior.
      • As the court house crumblesJuly 26, 2025
        Say it louder was she manic or responsible for her own behavior? Insane or relentless in her claims? Such contempt for a woman who was supposed to be insane and now dead. Found dead in the state of Connecticut. I will always question the motivation of the court house and the comments where she is crazy one minute, and then responsible for her actions the next.

          Though she said and did a lot of terrible things, I don’t feel contempt for her, I mostly feel sorry for her. She had an amazing life, wealth, a family who loved her and it was all destroyed by her mental illness. She was both mentally ill and relentless. It’s hard to say how much “blame” she deserved, I personally witnessed her intentionally and obviously lie many times. How much control over herself she actually had, that I can’t say.

          No, for approaching her family on the beach screaming that their father is a pedophile. The very reason they had restraining orders against her.
        • AnonymousJuly 28, 2025
          That’s part of the relentless lies. It’s ridiculous that anyone would believe an arrest was caused by expressing love to children. Definitely not arrested for publicly posting that your children are being drugged and raped by their father, with no concern for the trauma such public, false allegations causes. Or for screaming this at them in person while breaching a restraining order imposed to protect them from this destructive behavior.

          No, for screaming “PEDOPHILE!” at her husband and children numerous times on the beach while violating the protective order yet again.

      This Young Gentleman was a Walk-in due to his previous Barber leaving him without a warning! De Coiffure By Salem gave him a Gentleman's Clean cut Comb over and then shaped up his beard for him here at The Grooming Lounge in Wallingford, CT.

      He left with a huge smile knowing that he has a barber now that he can rely on in the local area and see monthly.

      If you have a stylist or barber that is no longer available or maybe you just want to try someone new, give Hatem Salem a call.

      He keeps using that word. How many Danbury white hats think it means what he thinks it means? 🤔

      … “The extent of the conspiracy in this case is particularly egregious because, in addition to distributing massive amounts of GBL and GHB, the defendant also distributed large quantities of methamphetamine and cocaine, along with quantities of MDMA, ketamine, and LSD,” according to a sentencing memo written by prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Alexandria, Va.

      The defendant, Hatem S. Salem, owned a house in Shelton but the case was in Virginia because that’s where agents from U.S. Customs and Border Protection said they intercepted a shipment of Gamma Butyrolactone (GBL), a controlled substance that people use to get high or turn into GBH, a substance that gained infamy over the years as a ​“date rape drug.”

      Between August 2024 and this January, investigators conducted five controlled purchases of multiple controlled substances from Salem. These reportedly included cocaine, ketamine, MDMA and over 100 grams of meth.

      On Jan. 30, members of law enforcement searched Salem’s home in Shelton, Conn.

      In his basement, they found 151 grams of meth; 626 grams of cocaine; various quantities of Ketamine, MDMA and LSD; bottles containing GBL and GHB; and 157 boxes containing close to 1,200 liters of suspected GBL, according to prosecutors.

      While pleading guilty, Salem is said to have admitted that over 2,000 liters of GBL were involved in the importation conspiracy.

      Furthermore, investigators say they found a clandestine lab in Salem’s shed containing substances and equipment for making GHB.

      A financial investigator also noted that Salem used methods such as convoluted transactions between businesses and personal bank accounts to hide or disguise the proceeds from his drug sales.

      Investigators reportedly seized assets that constituted proceeds from Salem’s drug trafficking conspiracy and property involved in money laundering. This included around $370,000 in cash and $171,500 in cryptocurrency.

      Prosecutors also point out that Salem is a repeat offender, as he has several prior federal convictions stemming from narcotics offenses. …”

    I respectfully request everyone with critical thinking skills to ponder this. In an effort to get to the bottom of the family court crisis. For all intensive purposes the family court system deemed Lizzy mentally ill and unfit. In review the majority of comments are primarily in contemp of Lizzy Weinstein. Claiming despite a significant condition we have not seen medical records of she was responsible for all her court troubles. A woman in a very long manic state years. Some state with periods of normalcy, yet still accusing the former spouse. In the neighboring state Connecticut Micheal the Arc angel, with a former criminal case. Including risking a child. Feature in the inside investigator. Despite his claims the mothers of his children are devil's he's considered fit. Treated completely different. Despite possing a threat most would feel. Not tossed in the mental institution. You can call me traumatized but I am not stupid. Something is seriously wrong at the court house. Lizzy is dead. They believe she is crazy but blame her and not the illness. Michael the Arc angel is not ill and fit for parenting. Accusing the mothers of his children of devils. Equal and shared parenting defends it. Lizzy Weinstein is more than a cautionary tail. Place on the frank report and burned even after she dead.
