Divorce Corp

It is hard to get anyone to witness reality when the reality is so bleak. I went to the Fri opening in Denver with a buddy and another couple and there were less than 2 hand fulls of people in the theater. But the story was so well done I found myself having to leave after about an hour. It brought back so many bad memories of my personal experience as the victim of what I can only describe as racketeering.

We worry so much about off-shore terrorism when we have a huge domestic terrorist threat in the family courts. Threats, intimidation, bribery, falsifications, forced imprisonment, loss of property, career, reputation it all happens - and justified with the biggest lie of all "in the best interest of the children'. I know many actual victims cannot afford to go to a theater movie or can't emotionally handle the replay of the horror story of life they lived through.

But this is a must see for anybody concerned about basic justice - for ultimately it is largely about the abuse and use of children as pawns. It should be requited viewing for High School students and any premarital counseling. Society is paying a huge price for enabling and fostering the ability for anyone to "terrorize" another person and abuse the basic human rights of children merely for the sake of making some $$$.

Divorce Inc is brilliant and insightful. The movie captures the ugly and the nasty side of the Industry that any reasonable person will label as a racketeering and corrupt organization. The divorce Inc is the most totalitarian institution ever created by Family Courts, Family Bar Associations, Custody Evaluators, Guardian at Litems, unethical Judges, Therapists and other "court hangers". It is the most serious perpetrator of human and constitutional rights violations in the U.S. The divorce regime is responsible for much more than "ugly divorces," "nasty custody battles that lead decent citizens into bankruptcy and foreclosures and huge payouts to the "court hangers".

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Divorce Inc captures this essence very forcefully. Family Courts hearings should be subject to video and audio recordings and evaluated for fairness by citizens. Jury trials should become the norm when a Judge is accused of bias. Family Court Judges should be required and subjected to annual citizen hearings regarding their decisions in custody cases and graded upon their performances.

I have never been divorced and have been happily married for almost 30 years, so I realize I am probably not the target audience for this film. However, if you, too, fall into a similar situation, it does not mean you shouldn't see "Divorce Corp"--in fact I think every American should as the film brings up many instances of judicial malfeasance that we SHOULD be aware of and which should make us angry. Imagine a court system with almost no oversight or right to appeal and whose aim is NOT a speedy resolution of family tragedies--whose ultimate aim, in many cases, is to bleed as much money from the divorcing couples as possible. And, imagine a system where what's best for the kids is sometimes unimportant. Welcome to the US family court system--where endless regulations, delays and costs practically bankrupt a person wanting a divorce. Learn about all this and more in this very hard hitting and interesting film. But also be prepared to finish the film feeling angry...

And, by the way, if you are considering divorce, you may just want to watch this one first. After all, the idea of an easy, non- contested and inexpensive divorce is just about extinct and the acrimony that is to come is something to consider.

I found this movie all too real as it brought back my living hell of Family Court in Vista/San Diego, CA. Before I got married, my mentor and Investment Adviser encouraged me to get my fiancée to sign a Pre-Nump. I discussed it with her as I was very open with her and as I was already a millionaire on paper and as she was in debt, she agreed. After a 10 year marriage and her never working outside the home, I caught her having an affair with a Hollywood Agent named Jason Trawitz. It came out in Court she also had a brief affair with my best man in the wedding, Toby Russell. Guess its "my bad" for the betrayal of myself. How low of a despicable character does one have to be to sleep with your best friend, and what kind of best friend chooses to bang your wife? So my ex met this Hollywood Agent through the girl who gained fame as the Tool Time Girl who took Pam Anderson's place. Our families were tight and traveled together. In any event, after I found out about her divorce, I was still a sucker and tried taking her to Family Therapists. But as the good Dr's confirmed, she was more interested in being seen with Debbe Dunning in all the hot night clubs within the USA than she was being a good mother. One of the Family Therapists explained that some women's only self-worth is knowing they are sexually desired by the opposite sex. When they look in the mirror and see wrinkles, they resort back to when they were younger and gained self-worth by sleeping with popular guys. After I filed for divorce, she hired a Personal Injury Atty named Michael Quade (handling his first divorce)to represent her. She did not check this Vexatious and extremely deceitful person before she hired him. This guy was as dishonest as serial lying shysters Mohammad and Obama. As they are the two most prolific con men in history, that should tell you how shady this guy was and remains. He was able to dupe and incompetent and disinterested Judge named Brannigan into buying their lies of deceit. They refused to settle for any reasonable offers, and after walking into the Vista Court in 2006 with a Net Worth of 5 Million, I walked out a Victim of the System a broke man who was forced to declare BK to protect what little assets I had from the Vulture like White Collars Criminals known as Attorneys, and Judicial System who allows people to commit perjury, manufacture evidence, and manipulate the system to "legally" extort money out of a man who started washing dishes at 11, put himself through school, make countless sacrifices to honestly earn a slice of the American Dream, and fell Victim to the Great American Scheme; dishonest Attorney's and the Courts which allow them to hone their mass frauds upon an unsuspecting people...and now that I've become the first person ever in my family tree to be diagnosed with the disease of cancer, the Dr's at UCSD's Cancer Center say there can be a ling between "it" and the stress of a 6 1/2 year divorce which still continues to haunt me to this very day. You know I was on the verge of retirement and living the All American Dream when I discovered my ex was living a secret life. I was going to write a book on how to become a millionaire by treating people right, doing the honest and ethical thing, then after running into this Quade character, I did a 180* turn on the subject and just finished a book called Pieces Of Deceit. It's something that they don't teach you in business school, that the greatest threat to ones honestly accumulated Net Worth are the Con Men like Quade and the system which protects him.

Nothing about this movie is inaccurate. Anyone that says otherwise has an interest in the survival of the #familycourt #cultureofcorruption in it's current state. The filmmakers and narrator offer a brilliant depiction of high conflict divorce.

This movie is a must watch and should be required educational viewing for high school students and any law student.

The only thing that wasn't mentioned is that most shenanigans in civil court happen at the end of the day when there are fewer witnesses so the public never knows how corrupt our judicial system is.
