Commissioner was very level headed and fair to both sides, clarified matters before making a decision but was able to see through the lies. Also, she didn’t let me get battered on the stand by the opposing party even when my Attorney didn’t say anything to stop them

RE: CA53731

This is the type of post a judge or close associate would make to deflect from legitimate criticism.

Amy Van Sickle has a documented history of abuse of discretion, favoring abusers, and failing victims. Examples include a mother who was denied custody of her kids simply because she voiced concerns of sexual abuse in the home. Van Sickle plays the alienated parent game to reward abusers with everything they’ve ever wanted and more. The abuse of discretion has been ongoing since she was a CPS investigator. She needs to be stopped.

Very Truly,

Ventura County’s Radiant Truth

Worthless commissioner. Climbed the ladder for this job by stepping on rights of protective parents and abused children. [Redacted by Ed.]

An absolutely awful commissioner, I do wonder how she got the position considering her reputation for being a terrible attorney.

When the "law" protects the lawless, the social contract is null and void.
