Hero Father And CPS; With Wes Acton

     Slam The Gavel welcomes Wes Acton to the podcast. He is a 42 year old father of four amazing children. However, on December 19th, 2016, he had to turn his then wife in for physical child abuse, but he thought he was seeking help. What came next was the police arriving and CPS. Wes has no criminal record, not even a parking ticket. CPS removed the children from their home and placed them with the paternal grandparents. His wife served one year in prison.     After 10 months, Wes FINALLY got the children back. With false accusations, his church turned on him without any evidence and even took time out to drive 40 minutes to go to court to lie about Wes. Nine members of his church and half of his family turned on him, disowned him because he SUDDENLY became an inconvenience and an embarrassment.To reach Wes Acton: Wes Acton on TikTok and on FB: Randolph ActonSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

Michael Founded Pierce Hamilton and Stern in 1982 and also Founded Fair Construction and Outsourcing Inc. in 2005.     FCO is a leader in the Multi Housing Debt Collection Industry and however, it's made "Michael" a target since before 2016.     This is a sinister tale of a Corporate Takeover, masquerading as a "Broward Florida Divorce," FMCE21 008 210. The more Michael has investigated, the more he has discovered a more diabolical scheme. At present, the $10 BILLION Dollar Public Stock Corporation is drawn into the conversation because  of his 25 year Executive "Carol" has secretively taken a job there while this scheme developed.     Michael's youngest children are just five, six and seven years of age. They have been used as pawns, exploited by the four corporations involved in this Florida scheme.To Reach Michael Sobota:  [email protected](https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

     Slam The Gavel welcomes back Amy Palacios to the podcast. Amy was last on the podcast Season 3, Episodes 146, 165 and 179; Season 4, Episodes 134, 145 and 150; Season 5, Episodes 22, 70, 73, 83, 186, 191, 281 and 294. The last time Amy was on we discussed her federal case. There are currently seven lawsuits pending in Cabarrus County.    Apparently after the August 12th podcast, the judges retaliated, giving Amy an order extremely quickly as they normally take 60 days to respond. It was ANOTHER Gatekeeper Order. Then, on September 9th, 2025 a school bus caught on fire. However where is the money in the budget to replace 25 year old school buses? Perhaps when they fired Shawn Newton for doing his job and getting the county out of the six million dollar debt, that wasn't good enough because they turned around and gave Mike Downs four million dollars who was previously in Shawn Newton's place.  Maybe if they hadn't given him the money, the county could have purchased safe buses for the schools.    Amy encourages everyone in her county to go to the county commissioners meeting September 15 at 6 PM, and if you want to speak, you must be there at 5:30 PMEXTORTION AUDIO:https://recorder.google.com/d429d183-e30f-4023-b14a-f071dafe0a70To Reach Amy Palacios:  dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

     Slam the Gavel welcomes Roy from Chicago to the podcast. He has been trapped in a Cook County Chicago Divorce riddled with corruption. Prior to this happening he and his ex mutually signed a legal Separation Agreement in November of 2019. At that time, March 6, 2020, their NET WORTH was $7.5 million dollars. However his ex's law firm of Hoffenberg and Block has already obtained over $2 million in legal fees and Roy has not even seen or spoken to his once inseparable children who live across the street in FIVE YEARS.    This law firm judge shopped and found Judge Renee Goldfarb and she froze ALL of Roy's assets. He has received less than 3% of his life's work, $179,800.00 in 5.5 years, $2,700.00/month. He was also forced to move eight times and arrested twice for reporting the judge. Roy was ALSO attacked leaving a restaurant and barely survived with NO THEFT at all, just a SINISTER MESSAGE FROM OUTSIDE INFLUENCES.

    Slam the Gavel welcomes Darla Hall to the podcast. Darla Hall came onto the podcast to share the story of her son, Nicholas Hall who was recently sentenced to 21 years in prison in Connecticut. Their nightmare began in 2020 when ALLEGATIONS surfaced just weeks after a custody dispute with his then-wife.      One alleged victim later confirmed nothing ever happened, yet Nicholas Hall was still prosecuted AND from the very beginning, his case has been marked by conflicts of interest, COLLUSION, improper rulings, suppression of evidence and POWERFUL political CONNECTIONS that cast doubt on the FAIRNESS of his trial.    In February 2025, Nicholas Hall was convicted on four of six counts, though not on the most serious of charges. On August 14th, he was sentenced and taken into custody despite FIVE YEARS ON BOND WITHOUT INCIDENT, no prior record, and voluntarily passing both psychosexual evaluation and a polygraph.      EVIDENCE was mishandled, jury instructions FLAWED, WITNESSES COACHED and DNA methodology IMPROPERLY ADMITTED. Yet his motions for a new trial and bond pending appeal were DENIED.     Darla Hall is seeking help, anyone who can offer EXPERT ASSISTANCE, legal representation for his APPEAL, or support with bond pending appeal to the Appellate Court. Nicholas Hall's FREEDOM  and TRUTH depend on it.To Reach Darla Hall:  [email protected], justicefornicholashall.org, 914-996-2055Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

    Slam The Gavel Podcast welcomes Stand With Meg to the show. Meg is a Mother of five and has been trapped in an ongoing family court battle for over 12 years. On January 29th, 2024, all five of her children were taken from her without a trial, Due Process, without cross-examining her accusers and despite Kansas DCF having cleared her of the allegations of emotional abuse, they still used the false allegations against her.    For over 18 months, Meg has lived the devastating reality of forced alienation, with little to no contact with her children.

   I took over the podcast to show everyone how to stay busy in stressful times. If you find yourself in family court, any court situation, or family dysfunction with no one by your side, it's best to stay busy and find joy in the little things.   Also, encouraging court watching and what to do when you see a judge or an attorney treat a Pro Se Litigant (someone who represents themselves) badly.
