One of the idiots that failed Valva. Need I say more? I dealt with him, he’s an idiot. He should be imprisoned for the Valva death. He should be charged with being an accessory giving custody to his disgusting “father.”

This clown is a ZERO. And now we hear he was involved in the Valva case? Not surprising and the one he used to appoint often to represent the children, Jennifer Basile, that loser, can take a hike, too.

I just wonder who was the attorney for those Valva kids. What a piece of trash that person is.

Well, so far mommy bias seems to prevail! Will follow up with more details but so far it appears to be business as usual in Suffolk county family court. It is strange that laws, rules, and court orders mean so little to the people we entrust with enforcing them.
