I know the perspective that shame is always unhealthy is a common one. That’s why I began with a search of the Old Testament to be sure I was presenting something fresh but also accurate. I bet you’d love the second blog in this series: Why would a Good God Design Shame to Divide?

You might still not agree with me, Deb. I’m always open to your thoughts because I so respect you.

I only see my one comment, unless a previous one was removed. Smith county is horrible. They use coercion, scare tactics and abuse of power in the courtroom. This woman is one of the greatest violators of the constitution in which she is supposed to uphold. She’s faced serious allegations of misconduct and investigations have found clear instances of fraud. Among the violations substantiated by findings were improper ex parte communications where she engaged in unauthorized private discussions regarding ongoing cases without the presence of all parties involved. Though her misconduct has limited public information, she knows exactly what she’s done and so does the courts. Her and her husband have placed plenty of individuals in turmoil. She does not follow due process of the law, executing judicial orders without proper oversight, rush to judgement orders, perjury, and never impartial. My attitude isn’t just geared towards her, it is towards the whole Title IV-D agency as a whole. Smith county is just one of the most corrupt areas that this scam takes place. Forcing the other parent to feel as though a natural obligation can be compelled, and using their lack of knowledge of the law to drive them into a courtroom that will lie as though they have the best interest of the child in mind. All along it is the incentives provided to the state that encourages the fraud to take place. How does the state preside over its own cases? How is it that almost every case ends in a judgment? How is it that present parents become alienated from their children with limited time given and then the custody order cannot be enforced but the child support order can be? Sounds to me like they never had the authority to do neither, wouldn’t you say? Why is it that the OAG during the meeting of the minds never gathers information from the “custodial parent” to calculate child support but instead uses a formula that is supposed to be based on disposable income. How is it that they never have to provide evidence that supports the claim other than the “custodial parent” applying for child support or the TANF grant provided from the state. Then in turn violates its own statutes and codes by placing provisions within the judgment order to coerce an individual into complying. Holding them in contempt and slapping them with a felony charge because they are choosing to pay their bills instead of the state. Isn’t that considered involuntary servitude? Isn’t that considered debtor’s prison which was abolished. How is it that someone is sitting in jail for a debt when the state of Texas says that no one can be imprisoned for not being able to pay a bill. They use the notion that the individual is violating a court order as justification, when that is in fact kidnapping and false imprisonment because the order is either void or voidable and should be vacated on the grounds of fraud. She is the reason I decided to go to law school so that I could learn to fight against corruption like this. Given that my case is still affecting me today, mentally, there is no statute of limitation nor are any of the officials that had a hand in my case protected under immunity once misrepresentation and fraud has been proven. Any motion or notice I file today that gets ignored is grounds to hold the whole county accountable. She belongs in jail!

I have such a soft place in my heart for fellow-writers and the ETWG! I remember being with you last time. I love it that you’re interested in the platform (great question, btw!) The platform is the size of a small textbook! I found it overwhelming, but I plan to study up. I don’t know if we can get electronic copies. I’ll try to find out! 🙂 cathy
