A Pennsylvania Family Court judge was arrested and has been indicted for brutally assaulting his wife and daughter.
He is charged with aggravated assault, strangulation, simple assault, and reckless endangerment. He has pleaded not guilty. Not surprisingly, he was released immediately on his own recognizance.
The fact that a judge may be a violent perpetrator [albeit alleged] helps prove our contention that judges should not have the power to decide custody of our precious children.
Many women are commenting on the MSM posts negatively about Judge Fanning. They are saying he made unfair and unjust rulings and in many cases, endangered their children. Here are a few of them:
He gave my daughter’s dad full custody even after I explained why he shouldn’t and he walked out and went back into his chambers while I was in the middle of talking!
I’m one of them [his victims]. He forced me to have contact with my abuser, disregarded my evidence as if it wasn’t substantial enough. He sides with abusers bc he is one smh.
Wow it is almost like a job title doesn’t make a man have morals. That’s crazy! Or wait…
I feel like any case he’s ruled over that dealt with DV in the last 12 months should be re-evaluated.
This is the judge my son’s dad and I went in front of for custody court. He wasn’t trying to hear anything I had to say because my son’s dad had a lawyer and only wanted custody because I took him for child support after 10/11 years and he didn’t put anything at all detailed in the court order. The whole fiasco was a JOKE! I’m not surprised in the least.
No wonder my ex was able claim zero income for fifteen years system rigged.
He dismissed my case, he didn’t look at any of my evidence and was super dismissive. Now I understand why. I’m going to try and appeal.
Crazy he was my judge and he allowed someone I did not trust to see my kids unsupervised.
But we’re gonna act like he was honorable in all those court hearings, right.
No one is surprised by this.
Hmm…And that’s who was handling PA cases. Wow!
I wonder if this guy is why 50/50 seems to be the mindset in this city’s family court cases…
