Legislature, dept. heads concerned with Family Court judge's rulings
The Oswego County Legislature has requested that Administrative Judge James Tormey review concerns raised by area officials regarding rulings handed down by Family Court Judge Kimberly Seager.
I am watching what a feel is another disaster happening. Recently my neice lost her mother who along with her my mother raised her for 13 years while her father was in jail for kidnapping, and trying to kill one teenager and sexually assaulting another teenager. One month off parole with no rights to my neice and being on the sex offender list for LIFE this man calls the sherriffs the day after my sister's funeral and he gives them a nice guy speach without even having proof that my sister had passed on gets our police officers to come and rip her away from my mourning family at 9pm at night while relatives from out of town, in for the funeral, are standing there watching. The police handed her to a registered sex offender NEVER even checking his background! Since that night my niece has been cut off from our family. The family that helped raised her...the family that is so lost without her. Kim seager doesnt even look at the whole case or even his background before giving him temporary custody of a teenager who he hasnt been involved with for most of her life and gives the grandmother who helped raise her only weekend visitation. no overnights... like she is the one recently off parole and a sex offender for life and not the father. Grandma was treated like she was the criminal in court that day with Judge Seager. My nephew is still living with grandma even though it wasnt what judge seager wanted. She wanted to take my nephew away too and its a miracle we didnt lose him that day but but im scared we will lose him soon too. At the hardest point in my niece's life, my mothers life, my nephew's life... my whole families lives and our worst nightmare and the people who are supposed to protect us and our children ripped my niece away from a lost and mourning family and handed her to a criminal who had tortured our family for years and who has since cut my neice off from all of us... even her little brother and has caused us all to mourn another loss less than a week after the biggest loss of our lives. The people whose jobs it is to protect us treat us like the criminals =( It baffles me that something like this is really happening. We are living a nightmare and until I found this article I thought we must be crazy. Are we the only ones who thought it was commen sense to keep a child with the family that raised them and with a brother who needs them? Maybe not hand her to a convicted sex offender who offended people in her age group with friends in that same age group. Maybe Im not crazy in the real world but in Oswego county...well i guess if you are a violent criminal and a sex offender but still really want a child of your own, come to oswego county....you'll get one for sure! We cant just blame and investigate DSS we need to look at all of oswego county. Our sherriffs, our current family court judges...it seems like most people in oswego county dont really want to do their jobl They just push it out of the way as fast as possible. A couple of people have stepped up and tried to help us. One is a former supreme court Judge and even he is being ignored. I really miss being little when we believed everyone was good. We thought everyone was trustworthy and everyone loved us and wanted the best for us. Who can we really trust to protect us...? Now I know we can't really ever trust anybody...its a very sad realization.
