My ordeal is not unique. How many others can attest to a judicial and family court system that is, metaphorically speaking, diseased?
Clearly the mental health profession is fraught with impropriety, and examples of lawyers and judges who have favored self-interest above common sense and fairness are not rare.
Could judges be susceptible to undue influence while presiding over an insignificant case such as mine?
What weakness of the legal process could a miscreant like my ex-husband find and exploit? I would ask my children if I could.
It's easy for a person who is willing to lie to get their way.
I hope I can illustrate the vulnerability of an ordinary person like me to the subterfuge of a nefarious person such as Richard W Feagan III.
Richard's actions would be impossible without the help of dishonest people. Conspiratorial participants from the professional world have proven to be ready and willing when their venal motivations are fed.
However an evil alliance is only so strong.
Each participant will eventually betray the others. What loyalty does Richard have to his accomplices? Nothing beyond the extent of his self-interest...and he is probably tired of living life on the run.
