 Yet another father, angry at his ex after she filed for divorce, murdered his two children, just hours before a Family Court hearing. He shot 13 year-old Madison and 10 year-old Zachary in his Eerie, Pennsylvania home before setting the house on fire and shooting himself.
Melissa saw her ex’s rising anger over the six months since she filed for divorce, and especially in the last month. She warned him that his anger was “not in the children’s best interests”. She obviously sensed danger and would have kept her kids away from him, but was probably warned she would be held in contempt and accused of some version of alienating the children from him. Melissa was requesting a new therapist for the children, but the father was against opposed to that. It is unclear why Melissa wanted a new therapist, or why the father was against it, but that is consistent with the epidemic of court-appointed/affiliated therapists minimizing or concealing abuse or other negative facts about the father. Research and statistics clearly show that women and their children are in the most danger when leaving the father of their children. This fact alone should give mothers the power to keep children away from fathers when they believe he is a danger. But Melissa had no power to keep the children away from him without a protective order, which is difficult to get if the father has not already committed provable, serious child abuse. Countless mothers find themselves in this horrible predicament. It’s time women unite to take back the power to keep and protect our children—after thousands of years of patriarchal systems empowering fathers to the great detriment of mothers our children.

 Judge Had Denied RO; Father Released on Bail
“She is terrified that he is going to come back and finish the job, and nobody will do anything to stop him…But Andrea is more concerned about her kids. She is terrified for them.” Melissa, friend of Andrea’s Andrea was shot four times in the middle of the night with her four children, ages 5 to 12, in their home in Houston, Texas. Two of the children ran “in a panic” to the neighbor’s house. Andrea’s ex is captured on videotape going into and out of the house at the time of the shooting. It was a well-planned attack. He turned off the power, disabled the home alarm, and brought a friend to help him. Andrea’s friend says her ex began harassing, stalking and breaking into her home after their divorce. She called the police many times, but they never arrested him. Andrea had applied for a Restraining Order, but ironically, it was denied by a judge who had campaigned as a victim of domestic violence, Judge Barbara Stalder [pictured]. Andrea survived the shooting with major injuries requiring multiple surgeries. Incredibly, the D.A. did not charge her ex with attempted murder, only aggravated assault and burglary, as if he had been there as a thief, shooting her as a by-product of a theft, rather than as an angry man out to destroy his ex. He was apparently gave a discount being it was "just" the mother of his children. Unbelievably, Judge Amy Martin granted the father bail. She ordered, ridiculously, that he stay more than 200 feet away from her, knowing full well a piece of paper has not stopped violent men from murdering their exes and children when they are angry at losing control. There was a custody hearing scheduled for later that day, supporting the reason for the attempted murder was his anger at loss of control. Judge Stalder knew he was a danger to Andrea and denied her a protective order. Judge Amy Martin knows what a danger he still is and has allowed him to go free anyway. Judges Martin and Stalder are perfect examples of the countless women judges who support systemic male entitlement, selling women out for a warm seat at the old boys’ table. SHAME on Judge Barbara Stalder and Judge Amy Martin! MSM: She Wanted a New Restraining Order. She Got Shot 4 Times. https://www.thedailybeast.com/police-say-andrea-walker-wright-was-shot-by-her-ex-husband-aaron-wright-after-a-restraining-order-expired TWC NOTE: Andrea’s case makes it obvious that getting more women judges on the bench is not going to stop the custody crisis, because systemic male entitlement is upheld by both male and female judges. We need a new system where judges do not have the power to take and endanger our children and ourselves.
