“Mommy, I’m Not Gonna Tell The Truth Anymore” – Lora Brislin

“Mommy, I’m Not Gonna Tell The Truth Anymore” – Lora Brislin

Originally published: January 18, 2010 by troyofillinois

I am literally tired of seeing and hearing about case such as this. A little girl at the age of 5 has now decided to not speak the truth so she will not endure beatings from her father, her custodial parent.
I have copied this from a petition. Please read this. It’s tragic, it’s sad and it goes along with Connie’s story, Kaylee’s story and many others. How can we continue to turn a blind eye and say that this does not happen. Can there be this many “delusional” and “vindictive” women out there? I seriously doubt it.

“Lora Brislin is the mother of two daughters ages 6 and 4. Lora has not spoken to or seen her daughters since April of this year (2009). In May, Judge Phyllis Miller of Gwinnett County, Georgia, ordered that ALL custody and visitation be taken from Lora, and that the girls be in the sole custody of their abusive father and his wife.
Lora endured 5 years of physical and mental abuse at the hands of her former husband, the father of their 2 girls, during which time he repeatedly hit Lora as well as stalked, harassed, and verbally abused her.
This man also served a lengthy term in jail as a result of a history of criminal activity. In one of his previous marriages, not only did he also abuse his former wife , he abandoned his son and gave up his parental rights in exchange for not having to pay child support.
During his marriage to Lora the father wanted nothing to do with his two daughters. When Lora finally found the courage to leave her abuser in October of 2006, the father suddenly became adamant about fighting for equal visitation. Not only did he get visitation of these children, he began threatening to take custody away from Lora Brislin.
For two years Ms. Brislin has heard numerous pleas of help from her daughters who claim they are being sexually molested by both their father and his new wife and has tried to make the courts listen to her and her children. Instead, she has been laughed at by the courts, told she was making false allegations against their father, and was a menace to her children. Not only was the TRUTH spoken by the little girls discarded, their father was able to pay a high priced attorney to turn everything around on Lora and convince others that she was the one molesting her daughters. Lora’s eldest daughter was beaten so badly when she would tell the truth about what was being done to her that one day she said, “Mommy, I’m not going to tell the truth anymore”. Imagine a 5 year old choosing the lesser of two evils as a means of looking out for herself because a system put into place to protect her chose not to do so? On May 7, 2009 the father was awarded sole custody, and Lora was ordered to have no contact with her daughters whatsoever by a Judge who has since been disbarred.
Lora Brislin, along with the undersigned, is confused by this outrageous injustice by the court. Ms. Brislin is not the only loving and responsible mother who has had her children literally ripped from her arms and placed in the sole custody of abusers. We are asking that this case be reopened and investigated. We ask that this egregious injustice be dealt with, and that Lora and her daughters be reunited. AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW THESE CHILDREN ARE NOT SAFE.
This grave misuse of power cannot be stood for! Clearly there is some other motive at work here. It is clear that something other than poor judgment on the part of a judge has caused this loving and protective mom to lose all contact with her children. No matter what that hidden agenda might be, if the court decision is allowed to stand, the Gwinnett County court system will be continuing to place these children in harm’s way and be punishing their mother for trying to protect them!
There are men and women all over the country, as well as all over the world, who are watching to see what is done about this horrific case of “court-sanctioned” abuse. We believe that if government officials do not intervene in cases like this in which a clear misuse of power has destroyed the lives of two young children and their mother, then the government should be seen as, not only negligent, but as condoning this outrageous behavior of judges who, seemingly, have to answer to no one!
Our family court system was supposed to have been put in place for the purpose of aiding families, and in cases where abuse is involved, supporting the protective parent, thereby ensuring the safety of innocent and defenseless children. In this case, however, it appears that the very system that was put into place for the purpose of protecting children is, instead, contributing to the traumatizing of these helpless victims. We, the undersigned, are standing together in an attempt to speak for these little ones who are not allowed to speak for themselves and, in order to prevent further destruction in their lives, we are asking that this case be revisited and that The Truth finally be brought into The Light so that justice can prevail!”

Please, stop accusing the protective parents. Stop protecting the abusers. These children are our future. Sign the petition, please.
