Maria Bauer Melinn Rewrites History: Inserts Herself into Suffrage Movement & More

“A mother can not stop fighting for the safety of her children, nor can a protective father or grandparent!!!!” – Maria Bauer Melinn

 

A History of the World According to Maria Bauer Melinn…

 

CHAPTER 1: Maria becomes QUEEN.

According to male admirer Babuhai Patel, “The best girl in the entire facebook is her highness Maria.”

 

Abdul Raoof Mughal:“You belong in Bollywood films..”

MariaNWP2

CHAPTER 2: Maria inserts herself into the Women’s Suffrage Movement, highjacks the name of a legitimate organization, the National Women’s Party, and then. uses it for her own selfish purposes. Maria compares herself to Susan B. Anthony and other notable women, inserting herself into the spotlight of women’s history.

Let’s be clear, Maria stole the National Women’s Party’s name, historical images, and written descriptions of its history and leaders then made this significant organization that has contributed to increasing the rights and equality of women, ALL ABOUT HERSELF!

 

CHAPTER 3: Maria compares herself to Anne Frank: http://thekcajapreview.blogspot.com/2013/12/maria-melinn-compared-herself-to-ann.html

 

Anne Frank was a teenager who was murdered in the Holocaust, perishing in a concentration camp with her sister—and most of her family. If Maria does not have respect for Anne’s memory, and how the Frank family has chosen to honor Anne’s life—then how can Maria be trusted to advocate for anyone else or protect her own children?

 

CHAPTER 4: March 2012, Maria becomes president of the American Mothers Political Party (AMPP), an organization created by fellow narcissists who strive to be the center of attention, attempting to alter reality if necessary.

Just two examples, Lorraine Tipton aka Mama Liberty compares herself to a gun toting Statute of Liberty.

Lorraine Tipton imagines herself to be a gun toting “Mama Liberty”

 

And Claudine Dombrowski has rewritten the Wizard of Oz to give herself a starring role in it.

 

Chapter… Do you really want another chapter? History repeats itself until we learn from its mistakes.

 

Look at the pattern of Maria’s actions; that proves she has a strong need to seek attention without any remorse for using people or hurting people in the process. She even goes so far to steal historical names and the identity of historical figures to feed her own ego. And yet so many people come to Maria, and the others like her for help—Claudine, Lorraine, AMPP, Abused Swan and Mothers of Lost Children (MOLC) etc.

What can be learned from this?

*If you have a history of abuse or trauma, you could be vulnerable to attracting other abusers into your life while missing the red flags. This does NOT mean that you are a bad person but that abuse has left its mark on you, and you must be more diligent in educating yourself or seeking support to protect yourself.

*Just because someone portrays themselves as an “advocate” does not make them one. And just because an advocate is a female does not mean she is a trustworthy person. Abusers can be male or female, come from all backgrounds and cultures, and are skilled at manipulation to hide who they really are. You have to look at actions and patterns of behavior to determine if a person can be trusted.

*For more tips on how to protect yourself, and what red flags to look for to detect abuse, here are some links that may be helpful:

 

Advocate Qualities and Choosing the Correct One for You: http://www.iidc.indiana.edu/?pageId=376

This link  above includes child disability advocacy for  schools, but there are some helpful tips that could apply to advocacy in general, including family court advocacy, such as:

How long has this person been involved in advocacy?

Does this person understand YOU, YOUR child and YOU and YOUR child’s needs?

Will this person be sensitive to the fact that YOU have the ultimate final decision making power?

Can this person be objective? What evidence is there of this fact?

Can this person maintain a professional demeanor?

Does this person seek win-win solutions?

Does this person understand his/her professional limits?

What references are available and what is the reputation of this advocate?

Lorraine Tipton of American Mothers Political Party Pt. II: Abuser or Advocate?

LORRAINE TIPTON ADVOCATE OR ABUSER?

Lorraine Tipton, the steely cold side of the Mother’s Movement

This is just a sample of documented acts of online bullying and cyberstalking committed by Lorraine Tipton; her criminal actions well exceed this list, and ATW will continue to reveal the truth about abusers in the Mother’s Movement.

As you read, ask yourself: “Are these the actions of a concerned abuse advocate or a dangerous abuser?” The Mother’s Movement and its leaders have been presented with the same question, as evidence of AMPP’s criminal stalking and harassment has been made public, and victims are voicing complaints…their response has so far been silence and denial, which has enabled the abuse to continue, and failed to protect the victims and vulnerable moms seeking help.

—2009 to the Present: Protective Mothers Alliance International, co-founded by author and domestic violence expert, Lundy Bancroft, and protective mom and advocate, Janice Levinson, say the American Mothers Political Party (AMPP) initiated a campaign of bullying, defamation and harassment against their organization and its members. Lorraine has participated in or instigated many of these vicious attacks.

Some of the outrageous allegations made by AMPP include: Janice Levinson is “very evil” and “very deadly” and “will mercilessly slaughter you and your children”. Lundy Bancroft has been called “the a—hole of the Mother’s Movement” and called a cult leader. Many of the attacks include vulgar and degrading sexual images and language, threats and various false allegations. ONLY an abuser would enjoy destroying and tearing down a woman, and attack those who come to her defense—how can you represent a “mother’s movement” and be an “abuse advocate” when you adopt the tactics of an abuser, and use language, videos and behavior that is clearly cruel and degrading towards women?

Lundy Bancroft’s statement at “Defending a Women’s Rights Activist Who Is Under Attack”: http://lundybancroft.blogspot.com/2013/07/defending-womens-rights-activist-who-is.html

Statement from Janice Levinson posted on the Venture Philosophy Blog: http://venturephilosophy.blogspot.com/2013/01/american-mothers-political-party-is.html

— (10/29/2010) Lorraine implicates herself as participating in online stalking, harassment and defamation with Claudine Dombrowski and “All of Us” against court officers working on Claudine Dombrowski’s custody case. Lorraine refers to the victims as “court whores”: http://mamaliberty.wordpress.com/2010/10/29/will-the-real-claudine-dombrowski-please-stand-up/

**It should be noted that Claudine has created blogs using the names of these court officers, and has posted their personal information and made various false and derogatory remarks against them all over the internet These blogs point back to Claudine because they mention details about Claudine’s case that only she would know, include information about AMPP and some of them are even written using the name “William M. Windsor” (why is Claudine impersonating Bill Windsor?!?).

–(2010 -Present) Lorraine wrongly believes that defamation, bullying and hate speech is protected by the First Amendment. The cover of the MamaLiberty blog says, “I am protected by the First Amendment that gives me freedom of speech, so get the f—over yourselves”. Is this the professionalism of an abuse advocate and “leader” in the Mother’s Movement or the gutter mouth of an abuser who does not care how her words and actions affect others???

–(10/22/2010) Lorraine again admits to cyberstalking and terrorizing court officers involved in Claudine’s case, “So they claim that Claudine Dombrowski is everywhere…posting this….posting that….posting on her facebook page…CYBERSTALKING HER or was it HER???”

And “I assure all of the idiots from Shawnee County right now that WE are everywhere…Claudine is our HERO…we love and cherish everyday that she has been in our lives…because we have had our own DIS-honarable Judge Debenhams in our life too….we have had our own court whore like Jill M. Dykes….WE ARE CLAUDINE! WE ARE EVERYWHERE!!”

There is more.. “We are not going to give up, shut up or go away….sorry. Gag the internet…..but the internet is here to stay and so are we. Ten years ago you would never find the social networking we have today. Thank you facebook….thank you MySpace…thank you Al Gore! You might be able to threaten a protective mother to not post anything and violate her first amendment rights….but you cannot GAG us all.” http://mamaliberty.wordpress.com/2010/10/22/where-in-the-world-is-claudine-dombrowski/

What has been posted? ATW has reviewed these hateful blogs that contain disturbing sexual material (accusing one victim of having “the dry vagina hots” for her clients), outrageous false allegations that the supervised visitation facility is involved in child trafficking, identity theft of the victims, swearing and name calling, posting personal contact information about the victims, and worse…these blogs still remain on the internet.

See a pattern forming? Dr. Phil says the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior…

–(10/22/2010) Lorraine Tipton engages in victim blaming, she believes that the people she has cyberstalked and terrorized deserve to be abused or did something to provoke her, “Your askew view has made you the target….YOU DID THIS to yourself.” http://mamaliberty.wordpress.com/2010/10/22/where-in-the-world-is-claudine-dombrowski/

Victim blaming has also been used by Lorraine to justify attacks on Bill Windsor, Lundy Bancroft, and Janice Levinson.

Lorraine says Bill Windsor deserves to be cyberstalked because he is a “refractory bigamist” and “Windsor’s stooges seem to be caught up in their need for enemies.”

Lorraine Tipton/Mama Liberty: Lawless Supporters are Laughable Pissants, Psychotic Fruitcakes: http://abusiveadvocates.com/2013/02/19/mama-liberty-laughable-pissants/

–(1/7 to 1/9/2011) At the 2011, Battered Mother’s Custody Conference (BMCC), “Badass Mama”Lorraine Tipton revealed the following ,”How internet groups allow us to form tribes of mothers over long distances and sparsely populated areas through the use of technology and How “To’s” to Safely set up blogs, link and linking, news features to AMPP network -via the BADASS Success.”http://imaginepublicity.com/2010/12/03/3372/

All of which is a blue print for the AMPP cyber gang of Attack Mothers who work together to stalk, terrorize and harass victims online.

See also how the Glenns Cult/Petunia Pig refers to both the AMPP “Anonymums” and the “Badass Mamas”… coincidence???

–2012 to the Present: AMPP members (including Lorraine and Claudine Dombrowski) individually and collectively as a group (also joining in with the Joeys) begin stalk, harass, slander, and threaten Bill Windsor, creator of the “Lawless America” documentary exposing government corruption.

Read Bill’s AMPP Hate Group Expose here: http://www.americanmotherspoliticalparty.com/

Naomi Chambers video on harassment from American Mothers Political Party: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3c2LSn4fRU

—Lorraine also has attacked several protective moms, and cannot be an advocate because she is hurting other moms, who are vulnerable and traumatized and deserve to be protected, NOT intimidated by Lorraine and AMPP.

ATW has viewed a photograph of one protective mom featured on Lorraine’s blog with loving comments next to her name—you would think she is a friend. WRONG! Lorraine later follows up on this beautiful picture by gossiping and making negative comments of an embarrassing nature against this poor protective mom. ATW has screenshots to prove this, and the only reasons they are not posted is to protect this protective mom from further embarrassment.

—Using the name “Rainy68”, under the AMPP account, created and posted hateful videos about Bill Windsor and his government corruption documentary, “Lawless America” online. Including “The Pie Man Floateth”

Lorraine Tipton posting nasty videos about Bill Windsor on YouTube. Not the similarities between “The Pie Man Floateth” and Julia Focker’s “Bitler” videos.

—Using her real name Lorraine Tipton, posted and passed around another hateful video called “Bitler” by the alias “Julia Focker”. Once again slandering Bill Windsor but also mocking the Holocaust and disrespecting the memory of the 10 million victims murdered. You have to be an evil person to laugh about the Holocaust, and twist this tragedy to use to your own benefit.

–-Lorraine has joined in acts of cyberstalking, bullying, harassment and defamation on the Joeys blog. Targets include Bill Windsor (Lawless America), Lundy Bancroft (domestic violence author & speaker, co-founder of Protective Mothers Alliance International, PMA), Janice Levinson (protective mom, co-founder of PMA) and other protective moms, and anyone she feels is a threat.

— Lorraine has declared “war” on fellow abuse advocacy group, Protective Mothers Alliance International (PMA). Lorraine has viciously attacked and slandered both of its founders, Lundy Bancroft and Janice Levinson. Lorraine has also attacked and slandered anyone who supports PMA—including other protective moms.

Is There Really a “War” in the Mother’s Movement?: http://abusiveadvocates.com/2013/04/07/war-mothers-movement/

–(2/2/2013) Lorraine gossiped and made fun of advocates and protective mothers at the Battered Mothers Custody Conference (BMCC) then posted her false, and embarrassing statements on the Joeys site for all to see. According to Lorraine, she only went to the BMCC to see Barry Goldstein; and referred to other advocates as “stupid” and “a hole”.

Plays a prominent role with gal pal Claudine (Petunia Pig) on Glenn’s Cult: http://glennscult.blogspot.com

DOB: August 17, 1968

VOCATIONAL BACKGROUND:

Graduate Coleman High School, Class of 1986

Cosmetology

Selling Candles

ROLE IN THE MOTHER’S MOVEMENT:

Co-Founder of American Mothers Political Party (AMPP). Media/PR Relations, AMPP. Presenter at Battered Mothers Custody Conference (BMCC).

Lorraine refers to AMPP as “a bunch of talking vaginas”.

LOCATION: Wisconsin

BACKGROUND:

 At this time, ATW will reserve comment on Lorraine’s two custody cases, other than to include these comments that are from her own words, and give insight to the concerns of the Court in Lorraine’s family situation, and parenting ability. Child custody litigation is complex, especially when abuse allegations are involved, and when the case extends over a number of years. ATW would like to express our support to the children involved, we sincerely hope that despite past difficulties, that all of you go on to enjoy happy and successful lives.

 Lorraine has 3 daughters from a first marriage, she lost custody of the children to their father during a divorce and custody ruling in 1997. According to Lorraine, “…Frank Calvert, of Oconto County, (was) the GAL on my divorce/custody proceedings in 1997 who recommended custody to my ex abusive husband-.. It was also Mr. Calvert who made sure that in his recommendations that in order for me to have primary placement with my older three daughters I was to have a “stable living environment away from Craig Hensberger”. http://thesharedparentingdisaster.blogspot.com/2009/10/hero-mother-her-story.html

 Though the ex husband retained custody of the 3 children, Lorraine did have regular visitation. 

Despite the concerns of the Court, Lorraine continued her relationship with Craig Hensberger (they never married) and in 1998, she gave birth to a daughter. Lorraine became involved in an intense custody dispute with Craig . The abuse allegations and reports are ongoing, Lorraine alleges that Craig abuses her daughter and is an alcoholic. Craig has a criminal record, and denies all allegations made by Lorraine.

According to Lorraine,”…the sitting judge on the case, Judge Miron, also made his threats again that maybe he would ‘contact CPS because neither one of us is a fit parent and maybe he should take he away from both of us’… He stated that maybe foster care was the best place for her. “ http://thesharedparentingdisaster.blogspot.com/2009/10/hero-mother-her-story.html

Judge Miron

Lorraine has posted details about the custody case involving her fourth child online, including the legal name of her child, and the graphic details of the abuse allegations. ATW strongly believes that children deserve privacy, and that posting their real name and sensitive details about abuse online for all to see is traumatic, and creates a public history that follows the child, even into adulthood. Anyone going online—potential employers, college recruiters, a potential boy/girlfriend etc—will be able to look up that child’s name, and read details of the parent’s custody battle, and abuse allegations. The child then loses their ability to form their own identity, and becomes defined by the past—as a victim. This is extremely unfair, and takes away the privacy a child deserves. There is a proper place to report abuse, and a proper way to advocate for your child, posting your child’s name/identifying information and revealing graphic details of abuse all over the internet is reckless and dangerous, and only causes more harm to the child.

 Lorraine also went on the “Glenns Cult/Petunia Pig” website to make fun of and “expose” her alleged abuser, Craig Hensberger. At one point, it appears Craig considered filing a libel case against Lorraine because of what was posted on “Glenns Cult”. ATW has to wonder if you are truly afraid of your abuser, who now has custody of your vulnerable child, why would you go online and aggressively post material that would likely provoke his anger and place your child in jeopardy?

Abusers in the Mother’s Movement Pt 2: Barry Goldstein &AMPP; Claudine Dombrowski

CLAUDINE & AMPP: DISMANTLE THE MOTHER’S MOVEMENT

According to Claudine a change is needed in the Mother’s Movement, it should be torn down completely, and she will lead these efforts, along with her hand selected allies “DV orgs, awareness?? seriously?? They need to be dismantled and a new what is needed now– begun.”

AND, “Its out with the old in with the new and dammit what we are doing is not working. The moms know this they are the change and with strategy, political and legal. Now moving because of the strength of mothers coming out — then the movement must to change to support and foster that growth. eg. Barry strategy Representing the DV victim, BMCC learning to lobby… you see old is not good it is oppressive.”

Reply to Lundy Bancroft – Change is here, Lead, Follow or get out of the way. Human Rights. July 20, 2013. http:// claudinedombrowski.blog spot. com

As you read Claudine’s delusional letter, it strongly appears that she thought she was able to control Bancroft, and that she was somehow responsible for his success. Those feelings since have transferred to Barry.

Claudine attacks Lundy Bancroft in order to prop up Barry Goldstein – no one in the Mother’s Movement objects to this kind of abusive, and manipulative behavior

See for yourself…

This is how Claudine described Bancroft, at the beginning of the Mother’s Movement, when she supported him: “Then he published more books, does speaking, became our voice, the voice of the beaten, trembling, terrified battered mother..” (Note: There is NO indication that Bancroft wanted or asked for any recognition for his advocacy work for battered women, nor did he ever take credit for being “the voice” of battered women.)

What is Barry Goldstein doing? Publishing books, public speaking and promoting his own ideas on how on legal strategy and related issues in family court. Goldstein is also promoting his books at the Battered Mothers Custody Conference (BMCC) — which what Claudine says is “profiting off the suffering of mothers”.

What is the difference – Goldstein has Claudine’s support, and he offers Claudine support in return. Goldstein is willing to look the other way when the law is broken by Claudine and the Attack Mothers (AMPP). Goldstein looks the other way when mothers and advocates are victimized, even when it is happening on his own Facebook wall.

 

Goldstein endorses Claudine’s vision for tearing down the Mother’s Movement because he has a starring role in it.

Claudine Dombrowski is one of Goldstein’s strongest supporters, and on several of Dombrowksi’s attacking blogs, Goldstein is openly promoted by linking his blog, reposting his article or posting his actual photograph. Claudine has created these attack blogs using the names of targeted victims, publishing their personal information (spouse, home address, e-mail, phone number etc) without their consent. On these blogs, Claudine writes vulgar and defamatory articles about the victim–all the while promoting Goldstein on those very sites! Once again, Goldstein shows he is willing to look the other way, and remain silent while an abuser terrorizes her victims.

Barry Goldstein praises Claudine Dombrowski and says it is wrong for Bill Windsor to defend himself against her attacks, even after Claudine threatened Bill’s life

The hate sites are mentioned in Bill Windsor’s affidavit against Claudine, “She stalks and defames a number of local attorneys, doctors, and social workers by setting up websites in their names. Note that she publishes all of their personal information – name, address, phone, email, and more. These websites were set up before she and her organization and associates began stalking me. It demonstrates a pattern and practice of wrongful behavior by DOMBROWSKI…” (see #7,
http://claudinedombrowski.com/?p=148)

How can Barry Goldstein ignore what is happening –isn’t he a domestic violence advocate? This is abuse!

Bill Windsor states Claudine Dombrowski’s actions constitute stalking and harassment; Claudine responds by giving him the “middle finger”

ATW noticed a similar pattern of behavior on Goldstein’s Facebook wall—with the worst of attacks happening in the Summer of 2013. Several mothers contacted ATW to complain. Publicly, AMPP supporters were attacking moms and advocates, using obscenities and disgusting language. One AMPP supporter even outed a protective mom using an alias, and revealed her true identity. It seemed that AMPP supporters were hovering over Goldstein’s wall, provoking and looking for an opportunity to attack. Goldstein’s response included the following: Deleting comments of those attempting to defend themselves. Leaving comments up of those abusing or harassing others. Ignoring the actual abuse. Choosing to work with, and alongside the abusers. To this day, Claudine and AMPP Attack Mothers continue to post on Barry’s wall, and share his support.

In response to Lundy Bancroft’s letter to denounce abuse in the Mother’s Movement, and stop working with abusers, it appears that Barry Goldstein’s response is to rally support for Claudine—his statement is then reposted on a hate blog she created to viciously attack and slander PMA International co-founder, Janice Levinson.

http://janicelevinson .blogspot.com/2 013/07/wh eres-evid ence-you-asked. html

Barry Goldstein’s support of Claudine Dombrowksi appears on a hate blog that is filled with profanity, disgusting sexual material, defamation and vicious attacks

Barry refers to Claudine as a “legitimate protective mom”. What is that? Under whose standard is a “legitimate protective mom”… or “legitimate rape”?

Barry goes on to say that “good work and sincere people are doing to reform the broken system..”

If we are to believe Barry then “good work” would include this hate site, created using Levinson’s name in the blog address without her consent. The “sincere people” who created this blog “to reform the broken system” use profanity, verbal abuse, disgusting sexual jokes and pictures, defamation, identity theft and steal artwork from the Holocaust Memorial Museum in their campaign of harassment. This disgusting blog became the platform where Barry’s support of Claudine was showcased. Again, a similar pattern as Barry being promoted on Claudine’s other hate blogs—this has been going on for years.

Barry Goldstein’s support for Claudine Dombrowski appeared on this disgusting hate site where his “friend” Janice Levinson of PMA is being openly attacked and slandered

Barry then uses “victim blaming” – a common tactic of abusers where they denigrate and blame the victim, often stating they are deserving of abuse, in order to avoid responsibility for their actions. Barry uses victim blaming by stating that both Bill Windsor (Lawless America) and Janice Levinson are just misunderstanding Claudine. Barry moves on to attack Windsor by stating the abuse is just a “personal issue” on his part. And even though stating Levinson is a “friend”, Barry similarly attacks her by reaffirming Claudine’s comments Levinson is “undermining” the Mother’s Movement. No Barry—abuse “undermines” the Mother’s Movement, and efforts to protect mothers and children.

Almost a year has passed since this post was created, and published all over the internet, and Barry has done nothing to dispute its content. Clearly, Barry supports Claudine and the AMPP Attack Mothers, and supports abuse by allowing his words to justify their criminal behavior and also by allowing his name and professional work to be used on blogs that are clearly created for stalking and harassment—to intimidate and cause fear not only to its victims, but to other protective moms and domestic violence organizations as well.

In the months that have passed, Windsor presented evidence before a court of law, and petitioned for a protective order against Claudine—which was granted. That is to say, a reasonable person looking at Claudine’s actions—including screenshots of her various hate sites, online attacks, death threats, instances of identity theft and worse views these actions as criminal and threatening. Those who support Claudine, support criminal stalking, defamation and harassment.

Claudine Dombrowski threatens to shoot Bill Windsor – WHY is she supported by Barry Goldstein and the Mother’s Movement?

According to Claudine, the “old” Mother’s Movement “is not good, it is oppressive” and “the movement must change..” Barry Goldstein has followed this need for change, and show strong support of Claudine.

Are these the advocates we are to trust?

And what is the Mother’s Movement changing into??

Abusers in the Mother’s Movement Pt 1: Barry Goldstein &AMPP; Claudine Dombrowski

One can only guess what is happening in the dark corners of the Mother’s Movement…

A bare bulb swings over a battered wooden table—deals have been made here, alliances forged, things that cannot be mentioned…. From the shadows a gold ring is produced, on which a single goat with ruby eyes and sharply curved horns shines. Goats have been the symbol of this organization for centuries.
“Kiss the ring”, a husky voice solemnly commands, “And it is done.”


A large, hairy hand picks up the bulky ring, admiring its power; it’s significance. Much like a goat, he protrudes his chapped lips and loudly smacks them against the ring.
They will not publicly announce their alliance. They will obscure the connection. Attack anyone who comes close to the truth. People believe what they want, not what really is.
A new predecessor has been named, and the change will sweep the Movement like wildfire…

This fictional account is based on the strange ramblings of Claudine Dombrowski (Co-Founder of the AMPP Attack Mothers)…at first glance, perhaps these writings could be dismissed but one has to wonder about the alliances being forged, the secret deals being made, and why leaders in the Mother’s Movement are so willing to accept the criminal and abusive behavior of Claudine and the American Mothers Political Party (AMPP).

Claudine Dombrowski “whips” family court into shape!

LUNDY BANCROFT SPEAKS OUT: NO TO ABUSE!

(July 18, 2013) After enduring years of abuse and vicious online bullying inflicted by Claudine Dombrowski and her gang of AMPP Attack Mothers, domestic violence speaker and advocate, Lundy Bancroft writes a public letter acknowledging the abuse and online harassment directed towards Protective Mothers Alliance International (PMA) and co-founder, Janice Levinson, is not acceptable, and he will no longer work with those behind the attacks—Claudine Dombrowski of American Mothers Political Party (AMPP) and anyone who supports them.

Bancroft stated in his open letter to the Mother’s Movement that  “ We cannot fight against the power and actions of abusers, and of the courts that enable them, while we remain silent and acqiescent in the face of severely abusive of treatment of our own allies.”

PMA, an advocacy group for victims of abuse and family court injustice, had previously established itself as a “No Abuse Zone”.

Lundy Bancroft’s Statement: http://lundybancroft.blogspot.com/2013/07/defending-womens-rights-activist-who-is.html

ATW Reporting on Bancroft’s Statement & the Attacks: http://abusiveadvocates.com/2013/07/22/important-lundy-bancroft-speaks-out-ampp-attacks-on-protective-moms/

 

THE RESPONSE – CLAUDINE STRUGGLES FOR CONTROL, APPOINTS BARRY GOLDSTEIN

(July 20, 2013) Claudine’s response to Bancroft’s public statement is to escalate the abuse by continuing to post defamatory and vulgar posts against Bancroft, co-founder Janice Levinson, PMA as a whole and anyone who is labeled as the enemy.

AMPP declares war on Bill Windsor and Lawless America.. tells the Mothers Movement that you “better think twice about sleeping with THIS enemy!”.
Sleeping with ??

In a long, rambling letter written much like a funeral eulogy—and too often praising herself, Claudine Dombrowski declares that the esteemed Lundy Bancroft is “such a good kiss ass and good little oppressor”. Actually, you read between the lines, it appears Claudine’s problem with Bancroft is that he does not kiss her ass! It should also be noted that in researching, ATW found no evidence that Bancroft or PMA International has ever taken the role of or taken credit for being “leaders” in the Mother’s Movement. Quite the opposite, Bancroft does not seek media attention or praise for himself, but appears to keep the focus on supporting abused women, and raising awareness of family court failures. And Levinson seems focused on supporting mothers, and raising awareness of family court injustices—not placing emphasis on herself or seeking personal attention.

Claudine on Lundy Bancroft, “..such a good kiss ass and good little oppressor..”

Reply to Lundy Bancroft – Change is here, Lead, Follow or get out of the way. Human Rights. July 20, 2013. http:// claudinedombrowski.blogs pot.com

Claudine’s next step is to find someone willing to work with an abuser and criminal, and someone who will look the other way when advocates and protective moms are being abused and attacked.

Who is this person??

::drumroll::

Barry Goldstein!

Claudine says the Mother’s Movement must change..and Barry represents that change

Judge Snores Through Trial – Wakes Up, Sends Man to Hard Labor

Ordinary people have tremendous power to take a stand against corruption, and to hold crooked officials and judges accountable.. don’t ever believe all hope is lost, or that you are powerless.

Place: Blagoveshchensk (Amur Region, Eastern Russia)

Date: 2012-2013

Official: Judge Yevegeny Makhno, Blagoveshchensk City Court

Victims:  Sergei Khabarov (sentenced to 6 years in prison) and Andrei Naletov (sentenced to 5 years in prison), local businessmen accused of fraud

A Russian judge resigns after caught sleeping on the bench during a trial that resulted in Andrei Naletov and Sergei Khabarov being sent to a penal colony for 5-6 years of hard labor.

A video of Judge Yevgeny Makhno went viral, showing the Judge slumped over, his head cocked to one side, as he is sleeping through a defense lawyer’s speech. Judge Makhno was also witnessed to be playing with his phone during trial.  Judge Makhno has been nicknamed the “Sleeping Judge” or “Napping Judge”.

Judge Makhno said he was not sleeping but “listening with his eyes closed”.

Human rights activits,Vladislav Nikitenko, received footage of the trial from concerned relatives of Andrei Naletov and posted it online. Mr. Nikitenko also filed a complaint with the Constitutional Court, asking the verdict to be cancelled.

Nikitenko said, “A verdict made on the basis of a hearing in which the judge took no interest in the court investigation and slept during the pleadings cannot be considered lawful.”

In March 2013, Andrei Naletov and Sergei Khabarov both had their sentences cancelled due to violations made during the investigative process. The release of this video and resulting complaint, as well as pressure mounted by the public awareness of the trial, was a powerful influence to hold Judge Makho accountable, and to demand justice for these men.

Makho may return to the bench – provided he retakes his exams. He is now working as a layer for a large gold mining company. How ironic, the crooked judge has now become a gold digger!

Maria Bauer Melinn: Advise for Moms in court: Benadryl!

mmbenadryl[1]

Maria Bauer Melinn reveals her strategy for abused women dealing with traumatic family court procedures: Benadryl! Is Maria qualified to give medical or legal advise? Nope!

Read more on Maria’s latest exploits…

How Sick and Disabled is Maria Bauer Melinn??
Maria wants us to believe that she is so disabled, and debilitated with life-threatening heart problems that it is impossible for her to serve any time in jail–and this punishment for contempt may endanger her life. Maria has even posted pictures of herself online, showing that she is in a hospital with heart monitors taped to her chest, her face devoid of its usual flirtations. With the last of her failing strength, Maria lifts the cell phone and pushes a button.., snap! snap! A selfie reveals one last valiant stand against “injustice”.

And in a snap, everything can change– but look at this  screen shot, Maria is commenting to another mother who is pro se in a family court matter, offering help. Maria says that she is able to “call a DV shelter on Monday” before she goes to jail. Maria is acting as an advocate and willing to “talk about strategy”.

If Maria is strong enough and of sound mind so that she is able to advocate for other moms, and is able work with other domestic violence organizations in order to “help” another mom with a very difficult and time consuming family court situation… then her claims of being so sick to the point of death are highly suspect.

Maria Melinn Broke Back on Motorcyle http://abusiveadvocates.com/2013/09/23/maria-bauer-melinn-broke-back-motorcycle/

Maria’s Advice to Moms in Family Court: Take Benadryl!
This mom is pouring her heart out online, giving very sensitive and personal details about her family court situation, which are now made public due to her disclosures. Maria is encouraging this mom to keep talking, and to go public–with little regard for this mom’s safety or privacy, and the possible implications for revealing so much.

Maria’s advice to help this mom cope in family court: “Many Moms find Benadryl helps on court days..”

Possible side effects of Benadryl include: Drowsiness, Dizziness, Mood Swings, Blurred Vision, Confusion and Irregular or Fast Heartbeat. Allergic reactions to Benadryl can cause seizures, difficulty breathing, swelling of the face/tongue and severe dizziness.
http://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-5680-Benadryl+Oral.aspx

What would happen if a mom actually took Maria’s advice and popped some Benadryl right before going into family court, especially a mom who is pro se or acting as her own attorney? Would it look good before the judge if the mom was falling asleep…if she had a sudden change in mood that affected her ability to represent herself…if her tongue swelled and she could not speak for herself in court or even breathe…..if she got dizzy or confused? Or what if the Mom had a drug interaction related to Benadryl and a medication she was already taking? How would the abuser to react to that? How would the Judge respond, the Guardian ad Litem or other court professionals?

ATW finds it alarming, and frankly irresponsible for Maria–who has NO MEDICAL TRAINING and is not a licensed medical provider– to suggest Benadryl to anyone, even worse a vulnerable mom desperate for help. Maria’s advice could potentially 1) endanger the health of a mom taking her advise and 2) have a severe and negative impact on her court case–and the relationship she has with her children if she appears to be impaired or drugged, or is unable to represent herself due to the effects of Benadryl.

Did Benadryl Contribute to Maria’s Heart Problems?
ATW can only speculate, until we have proof, but Maria’s suggestion to take Benadryl, makes you wonder if Maria is also taking Benadryl to cope with her clegal issues. One of the side effects of Benadryl is fast or irregular heartbeat, and once ingested Benadryl is almost impossible to trace.

From a report on Maria:”Domestic violence victim Maria Melinn, an ethnic Hebrew-American (genealogically verified), was subjected to these abuses, in violation of her ADA orders, right here in Allegan County, Michigan this month. She has been denied most of her heart and cholesterol medications by the Jail’s medical staff during the first 6 days of her 60-day unlawful detainment, as well as her physician-mandated mattress, wheelchair, heart monitor (via denial of the charging cord for the unit’s receiver), and physical therapy sessions for her back..As a direct result, Ms. Melinn has had 2 cardiac incidents after only 6 days under these conditions. She had a severe episode of chest pain, angina, and tachycardia on the 3rd day of her unlawful detainment, and another cardiac event on day 6. She was admitted into the progressive intensive care unit of the hospital that evening with severe chest pain and other cardiac symptoms. Her condition was able to be stabilized after nearly 24 hours of in-patient care.”

Benadryl could pose a risk to Maria’s health.. so why would she advise it to someone else?

Maria Implicates Barry Goldstein
Maria goes on to offer her unprofessional and uneducated legal assistance to this mom. Keep in mind that Maria has no legal training, no law degree and a majority of her “advocacy” training was given by the disgraced American Mothers Political Party (AMPP), where Maria once was president. AMPP has been recently exposed for their criminal acts of stalking, harassment and defammation. Their leader, Claudine Dombrowski, is facing criminal charges and has a protective order filed against her (other evidence suggests that Claudine is a serial stalker with a long history of harassment towards others).

Maria implicates Barry Goldstein as being a partner in offering advocacy services for abused women in court, whether this is true or not cannot be validated–but that Maria would use his name so publicly, and so freely could only mean they share a close relationship–or that Maria wishes they had one.

Maria states, “I will talk with you about strategy etc. in the courtroom”
Maria then goes on to offer up the services of Barry Goldstein: “we will work on how to handle cross examination… I am sure Barry will also talk to you about strategy too.”
Barry Goldstein is a former attorney now working as a domestic violence advocate, speaker and author. He does not have a current law license and cannot legally give any legal advise.
Common sense says there is only two ways to look at Maria’s implication of Barry:
1) Maria is dropping Barry’s name to give herself credibility, and to bolster her image as an advocate. And Barry may not be involved or is not aware of her remarks.
2) Barry is actively working with Maria–and the organizations she represents.
Either way this kind of advice presents a real danger for any protective mom who may be fooled into believing that Maria is a qualified advocate, and especially a danger that this advice may be used in court and jeopardize a mom’s case, and her custody/visitation.

Maria Bauer Melinn Continues to Exploit her Kids: New Video

Maria Bauer Melinn has launched another exploitive publicity stunt, using her youngest child as bait in her relentless pursuit for attention. In this latest video, Damon Moelter is sending a personal message to Maria’s youngest son.

Damon has been through a very difficult life so far, it is understandable that when invited to advocate for a child in a similar circumstance, he would have a hard time refusing a request, and may even feel a responsibility to speak out. We would hope that adults that are around Damon would try to create, and encourage him, to have a fresh start with his life from this point forward. We would also hope those same adults would be sensitive to his triggers, and possible re-traumatization by exposing or placing Damon in situations where he may be held back from having that fresh start.

Children Exploited by Publicity Seeking Maria

Maria continues to exploit all her children in a public forum revealing their identities and showing a lack of concern about their safety or privacy. Even worse, knowing that this unwanted attention greatly traumatized one of her older children–why would Maria continue on the same course, and put her youngest at risk?

Maria claims to be a victim of abuse, and she will tell you that she is putting this information all over the internet and elsewhere to protect her children. But what is a protective mother, REALLY?? The instinct of a protective mother would be to protect her child from any potential harm, exposure or ridicule. Also, it is a standard cultural rule that minor children are protected by surrounding adults in any given situation, that especially their identity and the use of the minor’s image is shielded from any potentially damaging exposure or attention. Any advocacy group should do the same—and be trained to safeguard the privacy and safety of a child, and to take actions or report if a child is at risk.

Video Suggests Support from Safe Kids International

Obviously, Maria did not create this video on her own—she is likely being supported by Safe Kids International. Damon Moelter is a survivor of family court, who went on the run to avoid living with his abusive biological father and then married at age 16 to become an emancipated adult. Damon’s mother, Cindy Dumas, is the founder of Safe Kids International. It is unreasonable to think this statement was given without the consent or help of Safe Kids International, not to mention the planning and organization need to produce and publish such a video.

Did Safe Kids International do any fact checking before asking Damon to do this video? It was not too long ago that Maria and sidekick Deanna Tarrow Kloostra created another YouTube video featuring this same child, pressuring him into making abuse allegations against his biological father. The video generated so many complaints that it was eventually taken off the web–but not before Maria passed it around, and to several other advocacy organizations. Though the video was removed, it lingers in the minds of those who saw it or heard of it–and this child’s safety and privacy was greatly compromised. Any organization needs to be extremely careful when endorsing anyone to be sure that who they are endorsing is credible.

And look at Maria’s YouTube profile picture next to this video, she strikes a seductive pose with her blouse unbuttoned low and sucking on one finger..is this the representative Safe Kids wants for their organization? To portray a protective mom?

Maria: Protege of American Mothers Political Party (AMPP)


Maria has learned well the art of exploitation, and making a public spectacle of herself. Maria is a protege and former president of the disgraced American Mothers Political Party (AMPP). AMPP is abuse advocacy group who claims to be helping protective mothers but whose tactics have shown them to be abusers in disguise. In the name of “advocacy” AMPP has stalked, threatened, harassed and started a campaign of online bullying against court officials as well as fellow advocates and professionals, and other protective moms. AMPP is known for publicizing the stories of protective moms who come to them for help–not only do they encourage moms to go public with very sensitive details of their case but also encourage moms to attack the court officials involved in it. Or anyone they view as an “enemy”. Claudine Dombrowski, co-founder of AMPP, incited a lot of publicity surrounding her own case, often to the detriment of her minor child whose identity and privacy has been completely taken over by her publicity seeking mother. Claudine is now facing criminal charges and has a protective order issued against her due to her criminal behavior–done in the name of advocacy.

Maria is also the motorcycle gal pal of Deanna Tarrow Kloostra, also an AMPP member, and founder of advocacy group Abused Swan. Deanna helped Maria post a video of her youngest son, in which the child was coerced and pressured into making abuse allegations against his biological father. As a result of this video, AMPP supposedly broke ties with Maria but many of its members–as well as other organizations in the Mother’s Movement–continue to work with Maria as well as Deanna Tarrow Kloostra and show support to Abused Swan and her Family Court Workbook.

Court loophole puts mom and child at risk, no criminal charges for father who abducted child

Family Court loophole puts mom and child at risk, no criminal charges for father who abducted child: Razwan Ali Anjum, abducted his 3 yr old daughter in Nov. 2009 and hid her in Pakistan with family members, refusing to reveal her whereabouts even after being jailed. The child is returned 3 years later, at age 6, the search deterred when detectives were sent on a wildgoose chase by Razwan, who lied and refused to provide answers as to the child’s location. Razwan wass charged with 12 months in jail for contempt–and given a reduced sentence, he also avoided criminal charges for the abduction because family court only handles “civil” matters. Now released from jail Razwan is trying to get Legal Aid so he can sue for custody.

FULL STORY:

United Kingdom: On November 6 2009, Gemma Wilkinson (of Ashton-under-Lyne) sent her 3 yr old daughter Atiya on a birthday visit with her father, Razwan Ali Anjum. What was supposed to be a happy day was the beginning of a nightmare. Razwan sent a text to Gemma that she “would never see her daughter again” then smuggled Atiya into Pakistan.

On November 20, Razwan returned to the UK–without Atiya– claiming he did not know what had happened to the child. Razwan lied and refused to provide information when questioned by the authorities. Razwan also lied when he told authorities that he sold his daughter to an Iranian man. Razwan was jailed for contempt for refusing to reveal Atiya’s whereabouts. Razwan was held at Forest Bank Prison in Salford for 3 years because he refused to reveal where Atiya was hidden; prosecutors remarked it is remarkable that Razwan was jailed for long and refused to cooperate.

For three long, painful years Gemma searched for her daughter–now subject of an international manhunt. Atiya, grew up without the love of her mother, and was used as a pawn in her father’s vicious retaliation against her mother. A judge working on this case would later remark that Razwan has “demonstrated the most cynical and cruel behavior he had dealt with in 30 years”.

With the help of the Pakistani government, and tips from local citizens, Atiya was finally located Sialkot, in the Punjab province on Dec 24, 2012; she was staying with paternal relatives. Atiya was flown back to the UK where she was joyfully reunited with her mother, Gemma.

Gemma was overwhelmed to be reunited with Atiya at the Manchester Airport, showering her with hugs and kisses, and bringing presents from every year of her birthday that was missed. Atiya is reported to be adjusting well in Gemma’s care, is happy and has begun to refer to Gemma as “Mummy”.

Here is where it gets complicated.. Razwan was jailed for contempt in October 2012, and sentenced to 12 months for refusing to disclose where Atiya was hidden (previous charges for contempt added up to a total of 2 years and 12 months). When Atiya was found in December, Razwan petitioned the court for an early release because she had been returned home safely. Keep in mind Razwan had exposed his daughter to great danger and kidnapped her from the custody of her mother, attempting to sever a sacred bond of mother and child. Razwan created an international wild goose chase, where detectives faced difficult situations that risked their safety, and expended a great deal of money and manpower–looking in the wrong direction. Razwan even lied that he sold Atiya to an Iranian man–you can imagine the absolute horror, and panic Gemma experienced on hearing that news, and the possibility her daughter was being abused in the worst way. Gemma appeared before the media a number of times, tearfully begging for the return of her daughter–to which Razwan showed no sympathy, no emotion. The amount of suffering Razwan imposed is beyond words–he deserved no leniency, and should have been subjected to harsh criminal penalty.

Justice Holman, sitting in the family division at the Royal Courts of Justice commented “the human cruelty..to the mother can scarcely be overstated”. Yet on hearing Razwan’s petition for an early release, Justice Holman granted an early release of two months because he did not want to give the appearance that Razwan was being “coerced” into providing information.
Razwan got an even better deal due to a legal loophole.. Under the 1984 Child Abduction Act, Razwan could have faced up to 7 years in jail for kidnapping (and may have been given time served for his contempt charges). HOWEVER Proceedings demanding the return of a child are considered a “civil matter” and handled in family court. SO Razwan was not only released from jail two months early but to date, never criminally charged with abduction.

Razwan is reported to be totally without remorse for his actions and refers to Gemma as “only or merely her birth mother”. Gemma lives in fear that Azwan will kidnap Atiya again. The Foreign Office reports that the number of parental abduction cases they have dealt with has increased by 88% in less than a decade.
Once released, Razwan has begun to fight for visitation with Atiya–and incredibly this case is proceeding in family court like a normal petition. Razwan appeared at Liverpool’s Civil and Family Court in Liverpool to petition for custody to return Atiya to Pakistan and apply for legal aid. Psychological evaluations of Atiya were conducted in July 2013. At the time this article was written, the results of the case are still pending.

Gemma lives at a secret address with Atiya, and has said she will oppose custody. They are working to rebuild their lives, and create many happy memories for all the years they have lost.
