My very dear friend is fighting for custody of her children who have been abused terribly by their father and his wife. He is gaslighting the court and lying about everything even through she has submitted photos of the abuse and audio recordings made by the kids as they were crying and trying to defend themselves from their dad and stepmom. She has a lawyer as does he, but his lawyer just keeps propagating the same lies in spite of having been served with a mountain of evidence against them. He has friends in the police department that have slow walked and underreported the crimes against her children multiple times. CPS was involved and found that abuse was in fact occurring and confronted the dad. They told him the kids go to their mom or CPS will remove them from his home. He agreed to let them go to their moms and agreed to a peaceful change of the parenting plan but now has backed out of everything and us fighting to regain full custody if the kids! Theywe have family court next week and the judge is a close personal friend of the kids'dads mother, who is also paying the attorney fees for the kids dad. My friend makes .74 over minimum wage and has had to borrow $11k dollars so far for her attorney. The attorney is a good man and a decent attorney but I fear he doesn't stand a chance against his lawyer as his lawyer clearly has no ethical boundaries whi h lead me to question whether he's even got a beating heart in his chest after being served with all the police reports, CPS, photos, recordings etc... and he STILL declares there's no proof of abuse and that this case is my friends attempt to waste the courts time over "unfounded" alligations. It's so upsetting it keeps me awake every night! I am asking for prayers for my friend, Jennifer Black and her children, Kyler, Brayden, Kallyanna, Peighton and Trayce. I'm praying that the judge put his personal friendship with their abusive father's mother aside and do right by these poor children! The 4 oldest have said on numerous occasions they'd rather be dead or in foster care than live with their dad and his alcohol, ex gang member wife! Please send up prayers for my best friend and her kids that the judge do the right thing and allow these kids to enjoy what is left of their childhood in a safe and loving environment! PLEASE HELP ME!! Sincerely, Heather B
