This judge allowed DCS to conceal a child from extended family.
She knew the players. Adopted mother is a DCS case manager and been in her court multiple times.
This judge destroys families and questions nothing. Shame on her.

Poor. She doesn't know how to apply the law. AZ statute states you can't give custody to a parent who has an order of protection. She didn't call a hearing and the opposing party didn't deny it. Gave joint custody anyhow and didn't allow witnesses for the mother to speak about the domestic violence.
