Judge Messer has kept the children from me for over 18 months despite ZERO evidence of abuse other than the ex-wife’s allegation.
Judge Messer, in open court, dismissed multiple investigations by authorities that cleared me. Instead she repeatedly claimed the temporary DVO ruling, issued prior to any investigations, was the final verdict.
Judge Messer ignored previous false allegations and multiple lies by the ex-wife exposed by testimony.
Judge Messer ignored the obvious coaching of the children in therapy, to police, and CPS.
Judge Messer continuously blamed me for the situation despite this being a total surprise and premeditated plan by the ex-wife.
Judge Messer continuously chastised me for not accepting responsibility or ownership for this premeditated false plan by the ex-wife.
Judge Messer disgustingly said to me that the children were scared of me, mad at me and did not trust me. They never said any of this.

Original accusation is extremely questionable.
The ex-wife picked Jack up within 2 hours of the supposed slap. Jack had no marks and did not say anything about being slapped to his mother, despite the fact that he had never been struck or spanked in his life.
The ex-wife testified that Jack told her the next evening in a waiting room immediately before the secret therapy session. This therapy was a weekly session in which the kids were instructed to say terrible things about their father. The coaching was so obvious that the therapist testified on the father’s behalf. The ex-wife’s story changed multiple times as her testimony in the EPO hearing did not match the EPO Report or the CPS Complaint.
The ex-wife testified that Jack simply “blurted out what happened excitedly”, she stated that he said he was smacked while telling her “about his day”. Jack has never been spanked in his life and he simply “blurted” this out and did so “excitedly”….? Also the mother is unemployed and Jack was not at school that day, they were home together, why would she ask him about his day?
Despite the fact that the ex-wife’s story grew to her being so concerned that Jack could have experienced a “concussion” due to the alleged slap, as she stated on recorded audio to Detective Northcutt, she did not seek medical treatment and the ex-wife never questioned the father regarding the allegation that he supposedly slapped Jack. In fact, she has NEVER stated any concerns to the father in regards to how he treated the children.

being ignored




April 1, 2021. The ex-wife told the therapist that the father had been abusive to the children in the past.
August 5th & 6th, 2021. The ex-wife reported on the EPO that the father’s abuse was “ongoing”. She went into detail with CPS describing previous abuse to the children.
August 26, 2021. Two weeks later and under oath, she denied any previous abuse by the father. Without his mother present Jack told the Judge his dad had never hit him.
September 3rd, 2021. 7 days later, the ex-wife reverted back to the false allegations 8 days later. On a phone call with Detective Northcutt, of which she did not know was being recorded, she made statements of past abuse to the children forced Jack to create false incidents of past abuse by his dad.
How can Judge Messer ignore this inconsistency?
Without his mother present the child could not remember how he was hit or where on his body that he had been hit.
Judges Isaac and Messer ignored this statement from Jack.
He did not mention ever being hit, and when the judge reminded him that he had said he was hit, he couldn’t get his story straight and began stuttering uncontrollably.
Watching Jack struggle reveals the true child abuse his mother and her attorney have committed in forcing the him to lie about his own father. These judges have extended their abuse for almost 2 years.
These blatantly false statements were dismissed by Judge Messer.
She was with a date and the father went to their table after a waitress, that knew them both, told him she was there. He approached the table, apologized for the intrusion and shook her date’s hand, he asked if he could speak with the mother for a quick minute. The conversation was very brief, the mother was cordial and appeared a bit embarrassed regarding the mention of her keeping the children from their father.
She stated that the children did miss him and promised to let them visit him. The father thanked her and left them alone.
She and her date left prior to the father who did not see them leave. The father was NOT waiting for them outside, in fact she attempted to have the valet give her his vehicle. The valet refused and mentioned this in a sworn statement.
That night the father texted the ex-wife thanking her for talking to him. The next day they texted each other and set up a visitation day. One hour later he received the false allegations sent by her attorney to his. Several witnesses viewed the encounter and provided sworn statements, also of note, video from the restaurant security system was subpoenaed.
The following is the accusation by her attorney, sworn statements by witnesses, and the subpoena for video.

Hover over document and click on up/down arrows to view each page.
The father went to her home on April 19, 2021, his scheduled visitation day, and she was home, but would not allow him to see the children. She decided to use an altercation that the father had with the girlfriend as her excuse to keep the children from him, even though they were not involved.
The two talked for awhile but she refused to allow him to take, or even see the children. As he left he heard the children inside and loudly said, “Daddy loves you guys!”. She replied, “Brian!!” and slammed the door.”
She accused the father of her pushing her down to the ground and forcing his way inside the home.
Without the video the father would likely had been falsely arrested again. The father was finally able to have the mother served and the court forced the mother to allow visitation to resume.
The father submitted the text messages between he and the mother regarding pick up and drop offs proved her accusation as false. In fact, these texts revealed that she cancelled his visitation multiple times in the short time frame.

Disconcerting rulings and comments
Messer Bias accordions
Judge Messer continuously relied on the ruling of the DVO hearing which was conducted immediately after the allegation and prior to any investigation. No evidence other than the mother’s accusation and Jack’s inability to remember being hit was submitted.
This case was a surprise attack by the ex-wife. At the DVO hearing, the father did not have any of the evidence that he later acquired. The DVO hearing took place immediately after the false accusation of Jack being struck. No evidence was presented that could remotely establish the father as being abusive. In fact, the mother’s story changed twice regarding Jack “informing her of the slap”, she contradicted her claims of previous abuse, Jack could not remember where or how he was hit, and he told the Judge that his dad had never hit him before.
What evidence? Judge Isaacs was not provided a preponderance of evidence, there was no evidence. An adult witness to the event that denied any abuse occurred was ignored despite the fact that her testimony and Jack’s explanation of events matched perfectly. The only “evidence” submitted was the ever changing allegation by the ex-wife, who was not present at the time of the supposed event. Jack’s conversation with the Judge revealed obvious signs of coached deception that any novice could acknowledge.
The FOC observed alienation tactics by the mother, the children’s therapist testified against the ex-wife, and the CPS investigator commented on the coaching of the children.
Judge Messer ignored blatant red flags in the children’s therapy that revealed obvious coaching:
* Despite being seen separately and never being asked about their father, the children immediately expressed negative aspects about heir father in EVERY session. Every session despite only visiting their father 2 nights a week. They did not offer information about their mother, their friends, school or other activities without being asked.
* Despite being seen separately, the children were quoted multiple times stating the EXACT same phrases on the same day such as:
“is sad and his family is changing, he feels ok” & “states her family is changing, but it’s ok”
Jack; “ignores her” & Adi; “he just ignores me”
* The children were 5 and 7-years-old at the time, yet they used adult words and phrases, such as Adi saying,”dad is inappropriate”.
* The ex-wife and children’s comments did not match the reality of the previous visit with their father.
Judge Messer ignored Jack’s statements to Judge Isaac:
* With his mother NOT present, Jack could not tell Judge Isaacs how or where he was hit. * With his mother NOT present, Jack stated he had never been abused by his father. * With his mother NOT present, Jack told the truth regarding the incident, he stated the exact same details as his father and the only other witness, Alexis Bender. Jack did not mention being slapped, because he wasn’t, when pressed by Judge Isaac, Jack began stuttering uncontrollably. * With his mother NOT present, Jack told Judge Isaacs that he was not supposed to tell his dad about his therapy.
Judge Messer ignored the obvious coaching on the recorded calls with Detective Northcutt:
* The ex-wife’s coaching throughout the recorded calls was so pronounced that Jack apologized when he made a statement that didn’t fit her narrative.
The father submitted every bank statement since their divorce was final that revealed every payment that he had transferred to the ex-wife.
The ex-wife claimed that she was unsure of the payments that were presented to the court as they were made to her mother’s account. This was the account the ex-wife submitted during the divorce to receive funds from the father as she does not have a bank account.
The ex-wife did not suggest that the payments were provided for any other reason than what was ordered. The ex-wife did not claim or provide any proof that the payments were for reimbursement to her based upon something she had paid for the children. She was simply “unaware” of them.
Judge Messer was perplexed by all the bank statements, despite a cover page displaying each payment along with a list of dates and corresponding amounts. Judge Messer stated that she does not believe that all the father’s payments were intended to cover the normal pay plan and any previous arrearage.
With no evidence to the contrary and the father providing every single bank transfer record, how can Judge Messer rule that the father’s intentions were anything but to follow the court ordered schedule? She ordered the father to pay the ex-wife thousands of dollars that he had proven he had already paid, and she did so based solely on the ex-wife’s accusation that he owed her.
Jack not remembering how or where he was hit.
He described the events truthfully without mentioning ever being hit in accordance with his father’s and the adult witness’s testimony.
Jack stated he had never been hit previously.
Jack stated that his therapy was a secret to be kept from their father.
Judge Messer disregarded the father’s argument regarding Jack’s statements, claiming that if he had issues with Jack’s statements at the DVO hearing that the father, “should had been asked at the hearing”.
Judge Messer knows that the father was forced to leave the courtroom while Jack spoke with Judge Isaac.
The father could not view the video of Jack’s comments until a month after the hearing.
If Judge Messer believes this was an isolated incident how does she ignore the other past abuse claims and contradictions by the mother?
Judge Messer ignored two different investigations that cleared the father. She ignored the contradictions, the lies under oath and the obvious coaching. Does Judge Messer truly believe that the mother is being honest about this accusation after being proved to be lying on every other aspect of this case?
But even if the father had slapped the boy, and it was a “one-time occurrence”, is that grounds for a judge to order children to be taken away from their father for two years? The fact that the father is innocent only makes this cruel separation order worse.
The children were obviously coached in therapy and on the recorded calls with Detective Northcutt, and the FOC stated that alienation tactics by the mother were obvious.
Judge Messer continuously ignored evidence and witness testimony.
Despite being seen individually and without being asked, the narrative of every session was the same by each child, something bad about their dad.
Seven out of 19 sessions they used the exact same words.
The mother ended therapy the same week that supervised visitation with the father began.
Judge Messer gave no credence to the fact that the therapist testified on behalf of the father due to the lies and obvious coaching by the ex-wife.
Introduction and Concerns (1)
The father’s initial request to have him and the ex-wife be tested by hair sample was denied. The ex-wife was given 2 weeks notice and passed a drug test by detoxing. Judge Messer despite being a former prosecutor has no idea that a person can detox and pass a urinalysis test if given a week’s notice.
The father has never been accused of physically, mentally, or verbally abusing the children in any way. The ex-wife forced the children to lie for her own benefit.
The ex-wife denied any abuse at the mediation hearing in late 2018 and did not mention violence in her initial motion in 2019. A week after filing her initial motion, the ex-girlfriend filed her complaint. The ex-wife immediately revised her motion to match the girlfriend’s complaint. In the revised complaint the ex-wife accused the father as, “always been violent to her”.
The ex-wife refutes herself once again; in her testimony in 2021 she stated that in EIGHT YEARS there was only ONE incident of physical activity; in which she claimed the father attempted to take her phone away from her in a physical manner.
That does not reflect what she said in her 2019 motion, and the crazy thing is, ex-wife also lied about the phone situation. The father has the texts to prove that lie. The ex-wife lied about that incident as soon as it happened in 2018. On text, the father and her discuss her lie. The ex-wife admits that she lied in order to protect herself in case the father brought the incident up in court, because when it happend the father stated, “are you really going to cheat on me and attack me?”.
Judge Messer and Judge Isaac hold extreme bias against the father due to the girlfriend’s complaint of which they have zero context. The ex-wife’s attorney counted on the judges to have this bias of a totally separate event against the father and as unscrupulous judges they did just that.


Despite all of the evidence indicating the mothers lies and cheating, Judge Messer refused to even consider that the father may be innocent.
