Here are some statistics that will make your head spin - 4 out of 100 people are sociopaths, 63% of our population will follow any person they consider an authoritarian figure (ex., teachers, doctors, politicians, judges, successful people) unquestioningly. A sociopath feels no remorse, no guilt, no empathy for others. Lacks a conscience. In your life time there is a good chance that you will come across many sociopaths, and you will believe many sociopaths. Because that is the sociopath's gift - he or she is usually charming, manipulative, and can make oneself very likable when the situation calls for it. If you are lucky you will never get close enough to a sociopath to allow them to do great harm to your life.
Sociopaths harm people in a way that is just short of criminality in most circumstance, and only in the extreme cases do we hear about them as serial killers or scammers, such as a Bernie Maddoff. What you need to ask yourself is if so many so called smart, intelligent people could be ripped off by Bernie for years to the tune of millions if not billions of dollars, than how can you not fall victim to one of these sociopaths? Is it a coincidence that of all the divorces something like 3.8% end in long bitter battles, which comes very close to the 4% classified as sociopaths? I don't think so, I think in those terrible long destructive family court cases one parent is usually a sociopath. Clearly, two reasonable people with some sense of conscience would not want to spend so much time in the court house.
But a sociopath is all about the challenge, the manipulation and winning, and what better place to do that then in the family court. There are very few things a person will fight so long and hard for at such a high price and that is usually when they see their children's lives are in danger. A sociopath has no more compassion, love or empathy for their children then they do for anyone else. They are incapable of these basic traits that most of us have. Yet, we live in a society that can not comprehend a parent not loving his or her own child, and there in lies a big problem. Parents do harm, manipulate and abuse their children every day right under the noses of professionals.
Sociopaths swim through society being admired often becoming very successful in their field of business, are great politicians, know how to use people, while leaving a trail of destruction that is often ignored by at least 63% of the population. In my case I was married to a sociopath one who became extremely wealthy as a venture capitalist. One who financed a movie in Hollywood and that had famous actors throwing themselves at him in the hopes he would finance their next movie. He was also involved in a host of other companies ranging from airlines, biotechnology and financial firms. Even the lawyers and judges in my case fawned over him, such as one alcoholic Attorney-ad-litem named Bill Beamer. After he met my ex-husband, Bill came to my home and was enamoured over him, gushing about how "deep" he was to me and my daughter. We were absolutely stunned how my ex was able to literally charm the pants off of Bill. Was it because Bill never reached the heights of success that my ex had, and so he viewed him with admiration? Such are the tricks of the sociopath, especially one who is smart,
I went through a long embittered divorce battle that lasted over 12 years. During that time I met up with other men and women (majority were women) who found themselves losing their children and devastated by these long unbelievable court cases. Today there are many books, blogs and websites on this very subject. I myself wrote a book called "Protecting My Child" by Miriam Silver (pen name). One mom who was lucky enough not to have to deal with a sociopath, just a narcissist and never lost custody of her children wrote a book called "One Mom's Battle" (OMB)and coined a phrase about Narssistic Disorder to combat the Parent Alienation Syndrome (PAS) used so often in court to steal children away from mothers. I use mothers for this example, because in all my years I have yet to meet a father who lost complete contact with his children for PAS by court order.
But, OMB only dealt with narcissists and could be of little help to those of us dealing with sociopaths and who had lost all rights to a relationship with our children because of the sociopaths great ability to manipulate the courts. I have to wonder during my long journey through the legal system if I was not only confronted with one sociopath which is daunting enough. But I have come to the conclusion that I must have been dealing with several sociopaths including the Guardian-ad-litem (GAL) Jeff Weissman and the court appointed psychologist Sherrie Bourg-Carter.
Clearly, Sherrie Bourg-Carter was another sociopath in the profession of psychologist. Think of the power these people could have over the lives of you and your children in a family court setting. Many who chose the profession of being court appointed psychologist seem to fall very much in to the sociopathic category. I can name 4 off the top of my head that have a reputation for basically ignoring all signs of child abuse and neglect, and can almost always be counted on to side with the parent with the money or the lawyer or judge who will assign them to the most lucrative cases.
In my case money had a huge influence, so did that mean all involved, including several judges were bribed (favors, money, gifts, appointments, election contributions) in which case were they just greedy and decided to turn off their moral compass. Were they also manipulated by the sociopath and his lawyer Gordon Brydger, which by the way was probably a sociopath himself as one would have to wonder was he also so gullible or just lacked a conscience which qualified him as a sociopath. I think the later, sociopaths probably can benefit one and other in certain circumstances and clearly court is one such area.
At first I wrote under a pen name because of my sociopathic ex-husband I needed to protect myself, but as I had suspected he is a computer stalker. And no matter how many times I change my name or password he is able to get access to all my online writings. Often he has anonymous people or fictious people respond with bad comments, which makes me wonder is he a coward when the truth is revealed? This is a blog for the mostly women and some men who have been torpedoed by a sociopath in court with the aid of pro-pedophile court officials such as Jeff Weissmans, Sherri Bourg-Carter, Judge Linda Vitale, Judge Richard Eade, Judge Ronald Rothschild and Judge Charles Greene. Most of these people who lives have been left in ruins, never mine the damage that was perpetrated upon their children need to start looking and thinking about if the reason they had to get a divorce was because they were married to a sociopath and if so how do they go about protecting themselves and their children? It is time that people wake up and realize that yes, they might have been duped, manipulated and been married to the most dangerous type of person that being a sociopath. That is a good place to start from if you are trying to get out of a bad relationship or in a heated divorce.
Not only must the sociopath be identified, but the lawyers, judges, psychologist, guardian-ad-litems and attorney-ad-litems be identified by name to warn others against their evil behavior and disregard for the safety and well being of your children. Sociopaths also look to be "pitied", it is hard to believe at first glance, because often if we are the victim of the sociopath, it is hard to identify. I myself just finished reading the book "The Sociopath Next Door", and it sent goose bumps up and down my spine as all of the key elements of the sociopath my ex-husband possessed, and "pity" was at the top of the list.
As I end this part of the blog I will always remember when I found out that the court appointed psychologist Sherrie Bourg-Carter took part in having my son lie to me when she and Jeff Weissman (who also lied on multiple occasions) knew my son was sent to a LBGT therapist behind my back. When asked if I could have my son and ex-husband see my therapist to help sort out our case I was denied. Soon after my son told me that his dad was sneaking him to a therapist and that he wasn't supposed to tell me. When I confronted Bourg-Carter about this lie and sneaky behavior her response was "I'm not the morality police". Not a truer statement could have been spoken as sociopaths do not possess a sense of morality. She was also a thief who charmed the judges while looting the litigants.
I will begin exposing the sociopaths and pedophile protectors of Broward County Court House, Florida in the hopes of warning future victims, and saving children from abuse.
