Conflict of interest is the best way I can describe this horrible Judge!! THEY STOLE MY CHILD AND TOOK HER FROM ME AND THEY DID IT BY WORKING THE SYSTEM THEY DID IT ALL LEGALLY!! I fought for 3 years to get my daughter back and all along he and the adoptive parent knew each other. I never had a chance to get my beautiful daughter back they wanted to take her from me so she could have my daughter and so that's exactly what they did!! I NEVER DEALT WITH CPS AND I NEVER KNEW WHAT TO DO OR WHAT TO EXPECT SO THEY LIED TO ME AND THEY MANIPULATED ME AND JUST MENTALLY AND EMOTIONALLY SCARED ME FOR LIFE.

The absolute worst [Redacted by Ed.] judge! Tears kids from loving mothers without due process or even evidence from the other side. Wouldn’t even allow my attorney to speak. Ripped my kids from my care in 20 min w/o ever hearing my side and listening to a convicted criminal who had been absent from our kids lives for 8 years, our youngest was 6 months old when he left! I still haven’t been heard in court to this day, 2.5 years later.

My assessment is that Judge Pennypacker operates from a bias for arbitration and a distaste for doing his job as a jurist. He projects an aversion to work and fancies himself as clearing the calendar for the good of the county's coffers. He is also swayed by tears and avoids looking at evidence. If you can present yourself as a victim, you will like him.

This judge is a terrorist to men and their children.
