While they’re busy telling us why they deserve the job, I’m busy telling the community how they’ve been doing the job. 😂☕

Judge Jacqueline Stam,

I find it difficult to reconcile your public advocacy for increased funding to address violence, juvenile justice concerns, and community safety with court decisions that many families believe have produced the opposite result.

How can the public be expected to support additional funding aimed at preventing violence when courts continue making decisions that appear to place vulnerable children and families at risk?

How can we advocate for reducing violence while restoring firearm rights to individuals with troubling histories without the public having confidence that every safeguard has been thoroughly met?

How can we claim to prioritize child safety when parents continue coming forward with concerns that evidence of abuse, coercive control, or dangerous behavior was overlooked or minimized?

These questions matter because every decision made from the bench has real-world consequences. Families live with those consequences. Children live with those consequences. Communities live with those consequences.

The judiciary frequently asks the public to trust its judgment. Trust, however, is earned through consistency. If violence prevention is truly the goal, then court decisions should reflect that goal. If child safety is truly the priority, then families should see that priority reflected in outcomes. If public safety is truly the concern, then actions should align with the message.

The public has a right to ask whether the policies being promoted and the decisions being made are moving in the same direction or in opposite directions.

Accountability is not an attack on the judiciary. Accountability is how public trust is built.

Spending the day at the park today and educating families about our justice system. Either they change their ways, or we will abolish family law; therefore, they will be unemployed and unemployable.👀

Update: The misinformation campaign has been downgraded to a disappearing act. The account vanished so fast I thought David Copperfield was running the page. 🎩🤣
