Slam the Gavel – Details, episodes & analysis

   Slam the Gavel welcomes filmmaker, Ginger Gentile to the podcast. Ginger is a filmmaker, speaker and coach. Ginger is passionate about using her skills to help people and make a difference in this world. Educating, raising awareness, Ginger has used story telling  to inspire others. Committed to helping families heal through and after divorce and trauma, Ginger has appeared on Red Table Talk, Bravo, SXSW, NBC and other podcasts. Since "Erasing Family," came out in 2020 (can be found free on YouTube). Ginger has dealt with high conflict divorce, trauma and  Parental Alienation. 
     Her first film, "Erasing Dad," in 2014 was censored in Argentina, making front page news as well as forcing her to leave the country. Fathers suddenly came out of nowhere to talk about how they couldn't see their kids. At that time, in Argentina, mothers primarily had full custody. After her film came out, Argentina has  since changed the law, allowing joint custody and no more gender bias in the law. 
     Ginger came back to the U.S. and found that a lot of mothers couldn't see their kids and that's it's more about money. The kids themselves, as young as seven were on social media talking about how they couldn't see a parent or a sibling. This is when Ginger made the film, "Erasing Families." It is a powerful film that does show happy endings.      Since "Erasing Family," came out in 2020 (can be found free on YouTube).  
     Parents started contacting Ginger asking for help. Ginger began transitioning out of filming and has trained with Bill Eddy at the High Conflict Institute and is working with the worse cases of divorce and Parental Alienation. Ginger has dealt with and is helping  parents who are suffering through high conflict divorce, trauma and Parental Alienation.  
     Ginger explains her how her coaching is helping others and  offers the advice that it's never too early to get help and changing the communication style with the co-parent is helpful. Ginger also offered how she has reunited parents with their children.

   Slam the Gavel podcast welcomes back Natalia Dalton. Natalia was last on the podcast Season 3; Episodes 26 and 144. Natalia gave updates on her case and discussed her child support enforcement hearing, where Judge Sotelo was willing to hear what had gone wrong, but Natalia's "public defender" told the judge that they can't fix her arrears, as it was in the Virginia laws. The judge listened to the "public defender." 
     Natalia had done a FOIA request from the Child Support Enforcement Office, and they gave her very little information.  Natalia has proof that back in 2014, she was not at a hearing where the father gave the court her income and therefore the court gave her a figure she could never make and she was never full-time. 
    Natalia hasn't seen her son in years, as the father makes it "difficult" when he picks supervisors and then declines them, so Natalia can't use them so she can see her son.  Her "public defender," told Natalia at this hearing to not tell the judge she has not seen her son and that they would take back some of the questions Natalia asked in Discovery. However, the father doesn't comply with the discovery, and the courts allow his erratic behavior especially when he asks the court to put her in jail for one year or pay $23,000.00 in arrears. The court tossed that aside and reduced part of her support, and gave her a restricted driver's license. 
     Since when does a judge entertain a "public defender" telling him what the law is, when he was wanting to hear what this mother has to say? He also needs to know that the father is not allowing the mother contact with her son.

 Slam the Gavel welcomes back Kelly Patton to the podcast. Kelly was last on  Season 4, Episodes 124 and 146. Kelly came on to the podcast with Lee to discuss an ongoing case in Wichita, Kansas since 2019. As soon as Lee contacted Kelly about a child abuse case, Kelly started documenting.  It all started when the child was two and living in a beautiful home and child support had to be paid. 
     The case is multifaceted and intertwined with collusion and corruption involving Lee's grandchild. Lee has not seen her grandchild in five years based on a frivolous report of child abuse. This report has landed the grandmother to be placed on the child abuse registry in order to alienate her from her grandchild. Kelly explained that they tried to have Lee go before an expungement review however, the same social worker that even physically abused Lee was handling the review, under a different name. There is no end to the collusion and conflict of interest.
   Lee's husband is not in good health and they have gone through their entire savings account to try to get their grandchild back.  Even a GAL in court recommended that the child be returned, however a rogue social worker didn't want to hear that, and found another GAL to go along with the false narrative. Lee's attorney fought hard to get the child back and for that, "they" threatened to take the attorney's license away . . . and did. There is no attorney in Wichita that will touch this case. Lee talked about a horrific smear campaign that followed along with harassment. With the experience that Kelly has she explains, "you can predict what these people will do." Not a podcast to be missed.

She has a deep commitment to social justice, she has dedicated her life to improving the lives of those in underserved communities.

   Updating her case as well, Sabrina discussed being handcuffed in the courtroom and called out that it was unconstitutional. The handcuffs were off in no time. Unfortunately there is a "one day attorney rule," in Mecklenburg County, NC where an attorney has no time to prepare to help a litigant and is forced to continue the proceedings even after asking for a continuance. Sabrina said that the attorney was on the spot given only five minutes to prepare for her case. Sabrina explained that this is a waste of TAXPAYER DOLLARS. However, Sabrina stated that she will not be silent.

   Slam the Gavel podcast welcomes Eric L. Nelson, Ph.D to the podcast to discuss his intriguing book, "Living and Working with Evil People, A Survival Guide, published January 2020.  We discussed his book at length as this isn't a book about "normal" people who commit evil acts. It is about evil people who commit evil acts.  Eric Nelson, Ph.D. approached this from a non-religious standpoint and examines all personality types from clinical and practical standpoint as well as from an academic standpoint. 
    We discussed the four personality traits of a Sociopath and how a sociopath is a persons on the outside looking in through a window, yet knowing they will never be normal. High - functioning Evil Personality Disorder comes off with disarming charm to get a person to trust them and their intellect is a tool. High - functioning, and very sophisticated at GAME PLAYING, somewhat like some lawyers. Chronic LIARS think through the layers of lies that will be told when asked.
    Discussing the Evil Personality Type and the key factors are 'Blood Lust' and lack of conscience. The EPT is to figure out someone who is close to you, spouse, child, relative. The Caution Tool, Eric Nelson, Ph.D. discussed would be good for young people who are just getting into the dating world. "Passivity is the playground of the evil," Erick Nelson, Ph.D states and how important it is to leave an evil individual and the time it takes or perhaps, not leave at all.
    This segue led to the field of 'Law,' and how this applies to some lawyers but not all as well as judges. Judges come in with their own agenda or come in with a preformed cognition. Are judges paid off? Judges MISUSE DISCRETION in multiple cases because THEY KNOW only ONE of them will go to appeal. This is the WILD, WILD WEST. The justice system, whether it be judges or prosecutors, have so much discretion that they can do a tremendous amount of ABUSE within the framework and get away with it. Judicial reform is OVERDUE and Prosecutorial reform is OVERDUE. NOT A PODCAST TO BE MISSED.

     Slam the Gavel welcomes Angus Williams to the podcast. Angus Williams discusses The Earhart Club and and our conversation segued into a wonderful and deliberate conversation about the overt fraud in Jefferson County, Kentucky family Court and the bigger picture of cultural curation which s really an ANNIHILATION OF OUR CHILDREN.
   Angus started The Earhart Club as a love letter to his daughter. He has spent his career working as a Physical Therapist, mentor  and teacher with a special interest in leadership, team building and drawing all people forward toward their unrealized potential.
     In serving thousands of people, he  landed on the theory that the epidemic of our time is loneliness – a lack of meaningful connection not just with others but so often with ourselves. Angus explains that we have lost our own, unique voice to the expectations of others. Making a distinction between our ego and our spirit – our spirit is who we are, the truth, our soul, the gift of God within us and our ego is our mind, our perception of who we are which is fed from the outside, which is  parents, teachers, culture, media and more. 
     Our culture has been curated to a tug of war between our mind (ego) and our spirit (self) giving rise to a dispiritedness that is the starting point for so much of the modern mental health conversation. A child’s authentic voice is not just what they say but also their behaviors, their values – their voice is their spirit. 
     The Earhart Club is for his daughter to grow up in a world where her voice is not just an idea but a responsibility and to REDUCE teen SUICIDES, ANXIETY, DEPRESSION and ADDICTIVE BEHAVIORS by 90% over 25 years.
     The Earhart Club, serving over 3,000 children, plus a trusted adult, so over 6,000 human lives have been impacted with measurable outcomes. 
     We exposed the abuse of custodial evaluations, the collusion between all parties, the exploitation of the most vulnerable. Angus used a Lance Armstrong, Tour de France example to highlight the utter corruption and existential threat to jurisprudence and the rule of law posed by the self-serving nature of all parties in the "club" of family law and the destruction of any OUTSIDER who DARES to go off script. Angus also  described that a corrupt lawyer is not made overnight but like Ted Bundy it is the result of 10,000 micro-decisions and violations of one's conscience on the way to an insidious collaborative venture with the DEVIL.
   This is the BUSINESS of mutually assured DEMOLITION, while the protagonists get paid for serving the child's "BEST INTERESTS."

  Slam the Gavel welcomes back KellyPatton to the podcast where she was on last on Season 4, Episode 124.  She is joined by Vicki Carnes, a Grandmother, whose case involves a Probation Officer, CPS, COURT PRETENDER and judge. Vicki discussed her case in its entirety that involved her grand daughter, being in and out of trouble, and how a Probation Officer took her grand daughter to two individuals Vicki didn't even know and declared kinship. WHY? Even Kelly and Vicki don't know why this had happened. This cased involved a lot of lying on CPS's part and talked about the alienation of her grand daughter via CPS. Prior to the case the grand daughter wanted to live with these two individuals and told her Grandmother, "it's not up to you it's up to the courts!" Then the LIES generated and descended on Vicki Carnes.
     We discussed why CPS does not act on serious cases but involves themselves in an intact or struggling family unit. We discussed the offering of $500.00 BONUSES  to FOSTER PARENTS, while biological parents struggle to pay for classes they are forced to attend in the guise that their children will be returned.  "Kids pay the highest price," Kelly says. Yet NO ONE CARES. Kelly also talked about the case of Baby Vincent and how he went missing and declared dead but the parents had to still pay child support.
      Kelly Patton is however, nine months into this lawsuit, 40 plaintiffs still have faith. Including Vicki. They hope for financial restitution and to be reunited with their children again. Kelly stays in the game to validate these families in hopes that their pleas be heard. Kelly also prays that more bystanders become more involved as all parents must work together to SAVE OUR CHILDREN.

   Slam the Gavel welcomes back Amy Palacios. Amy last on the podcast Season 3, Episodes 147, 165 and 179 and Season 4, Episode13. She is a Mother of six children. In Amy's case there are two ex-husbands fighting in court with the SAME lawyer, Attorney Jay White to perpetuate 14 years of corruption. Her first ex-husband paid the second ex-husband $50,000.00 to be a false witness against her.  Her case started in Mecklenburg County and has now moved to Cabarrus County, NC. Now both ex's along with an attorney, Jay White wants to extort monies from Amy or put her in jail days before Christmas....but that didn't happen. 
    This is the most egregious  crime committed against this mother, a Nurse Practitioner. Amy is was asking for Court Watchers on February 9th. I was there. 
    How is Amy making it through this rough time in Family Court without giving up? She has a STRENGTH and FAITH in GOD that is maneuvering her through the labyrinth of the extortion via Family Court. Amy feels at peace.
     The MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION is: will Amy go to DEBTOR'S PRISON that WAS ABOLISHED IN 1833 and UNCONSTITUTIONAL tomorrow September 5th, 2023 for NON-SUPPORT. There is no due process in her case. No evidence  has been taken into consideration. IS IT EVER? Amy has paid one of her ex-husbands over $33,000.00 in child support this year. Apparently Attorney Jay White feels entitled to  $70,000.00 as well, expecting $800.00 per month  until she reaches $70,000.00.  Amy has ALREADY PAID HIM  $2,500.00. What a  DISGRACE, especially when Jay White is Head of DSS CHILD SUPPORT. DO YOU SEE THE ISSUE HERE?
       Judge Nate Knust has allowed testimony from one of her ex-husbands, while in an orange jumpsuit threatening Amy's life. AGAIN NO CONSEQUENCES. Technically, Amy should have sole-custody and the ex-husbands on visitation. Amy says that they call her crazy - SOUND FAMILIAR? YOU CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS AND CALL ANY PARENT CRAZY THEN EXPECT ANY TYPE OF CHILD SUPPORT OUT OF THEM. This is HUMAN TRAFFICKING at its FINEST.
    We also discussed Amy's story and contribution in my book, Raised By These Wolves, How Family And Federal Courts Are Failing Our Children.
