                           Show #80                                              May 8, 2023 Tonight's Guest Is Stacey Sonnelitter, Mom of four deemed abused / maltreated by their father by 4 CPS indications and father has custody. Ex-wife of an attorney who formerly worked for CPS and is a current Niagara County NY Public Defender.  If the six lines under my name don’t tell an obvious short story, then tonight’s show will spell it all out for you.  I will be discussing with Bailey Smith the horrors of entering court rooms that are friends of your opposition. There is something that Catherine Youssef Kassenoff, Lizzie, and I have in common. Our exes are attorneys and friends of the court where our divorce / custody actions occurred.  While Catherine was also an attorney, and a former federal prosecutor no less, her ex Allen Kassenoff was more influential in the courts. Catherine’s story sheds truth to Lizzie’s story and their stories shed truth to my story.  This is not a one off. This is a clear pattern of practice for the courts to ignore evidence of severe child abuse and award custody to the more favored party over the children’s right to life, liberty, happiness and freedom from harm. Our stories shed truth to your stories too. If the courts will eat their own, like they did in Catherine Kassenoff’s case, as unfortunately for her and her kids, she was the less influential attorney, what hope does this give us in our judiciary system? How does this instill the public’s confidence in our courts?  It doesn’t. Catherine’s own words 11 days before her suicide letter when I interviewed her on How to Fight CPS and Win the NY Edition, she was  “so let down by the system, I couldn’t even tell you”. I had the pleasure of knowing Catherine initially due to our online presence when she was looking for an effective motion to recuse a judge, and later because of my involvement in Lizzie’s case that Catherine also was helping with. By knowing both women, I learned of our strengths and we learned from each other’s pitfalls. Ultimately, we all learned, and care to share with you, our horrific experiences in the system that if we could not prevail, given the evidence all three of us have made public, then what can you do differently now knowing the system is operating opposite how many of us initially thought it was supposed to.
