Agree.
No Case Norm is the gift that just keeps on giving in this tragic case. Oh, the irony of the phrase, "travesty of justice". Simply no words. What about justice in this case for the missing JD and what about justice for her 5 motherless children?
The irony of No Case Norm saying that his client FD 'loves his children' is also something that isn't lost on those following here on WS IMO. The court record of FD actions and reactions in Family Court are so well documented (painfully so at times IMO) that I think a reasonable person reading the file would have no issue seriously questioning whether FD gave one ounce of caring about his 5 children IMO for the duration of their short lives. I am the last person in the world to defend Judge Heller but I have to say that she (or her clerk) did a very solid job of laying out the case against FD in their decision yesterday IMO.
How can No Case Norm make a case for a caring and loving parent relationship being present with a court file that reads the way it does is simply beyond my capability to understand!
The family court file reads that JD effectively functioned as a single parent for the duration of her marriage and most definately as a single parent post move to NC IMO. Not only was JD primary caregiver but SHE AND HER MOTHER SUPPORTED THE ENTIRE FAMILY.
The fact that Judge Heller included the reference in the decision yesterday to FD using his children to lie on his behalf along with the fact that FD himself showed no remorse when caught lying to family court are both facts that I personally think should damn his chances to ever regaining custody or even visitation of his children to say nothing of the absense of any financial responsibility for providing for the family.
So if No Case Norm wants to seek review of the Judge Heller decision then by all means proceed as no doubt further information regarding his client will become public and I'm scratching my head about how that will play out to his benefit in the criminal case too?
