Wisdom - age
From the beginning of this tragedy in court, it was obvious that the young court workers and young pastors failed miserably compared to the the older court workers like Dr. Reitman and Dr. Gilbertson and eventually the older MN pastor when his eyes were opened to the severe games that the custodian and her father Roger were playing. It seemed that intelligence had little to do with wisdom, but age was important. Many years of life experience seemed to be a critical part of wisdom. Likely those over age 50-55 have a different view on life, and have a goal to help others more than the younger and rookies who have been more concerned about themselves, declaring themselves innocent and gaining power and riches for themselves. An older parenting expeditor Eric Rehm, initially appointed by Judge Mayer, made reasonable and wise reports on his 4 hours of father-child observations to Judge Mayer that Judge Mayer ignored. Dr. Reitman's objective and methodology was to get resolution and move on to the next case. That is very clear. Judge Mayer and Beth Harrington's agenda is to create an endless stream of income for the ring of terror and Kids for Cash profits - herself, supervision centers, lawyer supervisors and expeditors, Moxie "money, money money" counselors and their friends. 'The rich who are exploiting' fathers and Kids for Cash.
Regardless of their agendas which have a tragic result, the most abusive and disastrous actions were taken by the younger. The judge in the previous state was a rookie. The pastor in the previous state was too young to understand until it was too late and the custodian deceived him greatly about many things and her real intentions. By not inviting both parties to meetings, the church failed to follow Matthew 18:15+ . Much of the credit has to go to the incredible deception and lying that the custodian and her parents are able to achieve, with innocent faces and wicked actions. The pastor in the previous state told the father to simply let the (alienating) custodian (who had secretly filed for divorce and kicked the father to the gutter months before) take the children to live in her father Roger's home in Minnesota, and then to move to his own apartment in Minnesota to try to restore the marriage. And so the father agreed and also moved from the amazing state where the children were born and raised, to go to Roger's Minnesota.
Judge Michael Mayer in Minnesota was a brand new rookie judge. Deanne L. Dulas was a rookie lawyer. Even though the older MN pastor listened and seemed to understand initially, the much younger ('senior') pastor pressured the older pastor to do as he said, which the younger pastor later found out and admitted was supporting the parental alienator custodian and her parents in his church.
Only those who worked in the trenches with the parents and the children (not separately) on a daily or weekly basis were able to see through the deception eventually. Dr. Reitman had incredible experience and previous success in father-child reunification and he quickly caught on and was extremely successful until Deanne Dulas took over control. Dr. Reitman spent hours in his office and at child exchanges with father-child and mother therapy and resolution. Dr. Reitman was available by phone to the children whenever they wanted to call. Both MN pastors, especially the older pastor worked on a frequent basis in the trenches and for months with the family and eventually the younger pastor's eyes were also opened when Roger created a problem with another church member, and only then did the younger pastor believe what he was told by the father from the beginning (see the 'pastor letter' to Judge Mayer). It was tragic that the brainwashing was successful on him for too long. After that, he was strong in supporting the needs of the children. Both pastors who worked in the trenches and the whole church leadership deserve much credit for finally taking action to try to reduce parental alienation that became very clear to them when the smoke screens finally cleared.
Because of Roger's problem with the other member, and his parental alienating in this family, and refusal to forgive or seek resolution, Roger was asked to resign from his position of church elder (held for many years, and also former president). The leadership was advised to find a very experienced psychologist to use as an intermediary - and that was likely not done. With incredible anger, the custodian and her parents decided to leave the conservative Christian church to avoid any negative consequences and went to a church that has a Midwest reputation as a refuge for those in trouble with their church.
Judge Mayer and Beth Harrington didn't work in the trenches. They issued their decrees from their thrones. Judge Mayer's accomplice custody evaluator Beth Harrington, by her choice and demand, only saw the father with his children for maybe 40 minutes one time and only from her office throne - and most of that time she was chatting face to face with the highly paid lawyer supervisor that she demanded. Harrington never observed a child exchange or parenting in the father's home. She sat in her throne for one short father-child visit in her office. Young Judge Mayer never saw the children with the father. Young Brent Baumler, for years the child counselor, and without a psychologist license, took orders from the custodian, and only at the urging of Dr. Reitman, allowed in 3 separate visits, only 15 minutes total of father-child time together. Baumler experienced only 15 minutes total of father-child interaction - after severe alienation by the custodian and her parents, and only with the custodian waiting right outside his office.
There were a couple reasonable Eagan police officers, and they were the oldest and likely more wise, but they stood in the background, and kept silent while the younger Eagan police pumped their muscles and mouths and took abusive actions without wisdom, supporting the parental alienation of children. Only in private did the couple officers share with the father that they understood what was going on. But the older police let the younger aggressive ones take control and alienate the children from their father. Psych Beth Harrington isn't older and isn't likely to ever have wisdom. She is seriously ill and agenda driven, especially to cover-up and get more enrichment with business from judges, for whom she does exactly as they want. She lies one way and then another. She was starting out on her own business after her partner died. She is the president of the AFCC-MN, a kingpin in the Kids for Cash corruption ring, under the deceptive disingenuous 'cover' title of 'conciliation' which is exactly what would put the profiteers in this group out of business.
When Heidi Carstensen, supervisor of several Dakota county courts, was asked if she would 1. do the ethical and legally required action of sending court orders to the father that weren't served or 2. do what the judges tell her ('no response'), she repeatedly refused to answer that question. After months of requests to Judge Mayer, Judge Lynch and Heidi Carstensen, and Heidi telling another person that she would send the orders, the orders have still not been delivered.
If you want evidence of LYing LawYer Deanne LYnn Dulas, the court file is full of pages of evidence disproving her lying in court. It took 20 pages of evidence to disprove the 10 pages of lies that Deanne Dulas would submit to court many times. Deanne L. Dulas is an expert in saying a factual or twisted factual sentence, followed by a lying and deceptive sentence, mixing them one after another and at the end of the statement, saying that the father acknowleged these things. About every other sentence of hers in court is lie or deception. So how can you believe anything she says? She repeatedly put words into the mouths of witnesses that they never said, in order to frustrate and anger them. The father argued to Judge Mayer that lawyers have an ethical standard, that includes not planting lies in people's mouths. Deanne Dulas responded in court that 1. she is a Catholic {and expects to be in heaven regardless of her actions} and 2. that she is greatly offended to be accused of lying. Judge Mayer failed to take action or respond against Deanne Dulas and called for an early lunch.
