In California, we wouldn’t hesitate removing this child and charging the parent with assault. Of course, things are done differently in the backwaters of the deep south. As the male depicted in the video indicates, he is trying to beat his daughter Hillary into submission.
Warning: This video contains graphic content and language. This video that has now gone viral and is being re-posted by people worldwide that are outraged.
Note: You may have to log in to youtube and age verify. We stand with the clear majority in recommending that if this video is of a standing judge that hears family court matters, he should be removed from the bench forthwith and a criminal investigation should be launched. Moreover, he shouldn’t be re-elected. More on CNN about the viral video.
.
In most of the versions is a message in closing purportedly from the victim.
Judge William Adams is not fit to be anywhere near the law system if he can’t even exercise fit judgment as a parent himself.
Do not allow this man to ever be re-elected again. His ‘judgment’ is a giant farce. Signed, Hillary Adams, his daughter.”

Are you kidding me? That Texas judge doesn’t hold a candle to the leaders of California’s judicial system when it comes to abuse and trying to beat people down for using the Internet. The owner of Katy’s Exposure Blog, who just happens to be in Texas, received a threat mailed interstate from California via the US Postal Service that if she publishes on the Net about a CA case that is a matter of public record she will be sued for “republishing defamation”.

SK, who has been instrumental in reshaping public health policy, is facing possible jail time at the hand of the CA courts for writing of what the judges, justices and their clerks have done in the same public record case – that has aided a fraud in policy to continue to harm thousands.
Check out page 6 of Exhibit 1, of what the potential jail time is all about for publishing to the Net. Check out page 6 of Exhibit 1, in the Complaint linked below, that is the Internet writing for which SK is most likely going to jail. Its about a public record California case.

We can write and publish all day of the fraud in public health policy without using the phrase, “altered his under oath statements”. But what we cannot do without using that phrase is write and evidence of what the courts did to frame someone for libel. This is because those are the sole five word that are the foundation of the public record case. If one can’t write of what they were sued for, they can’t explain the case.
Since when can courts send people to jail for publicly writing of cases that are a matter of public record and threaten others by interstate mail for putting on the Net?

When Judge Adams gets booted out of Texas, he should come to California. He can enlist in the Assigned Judges program, where he’ll get steady work for the next 18 years without ever getting elected to the bench, and there’s probably a vacant seat on the California Judicial Council that the Chief Justice would be happy to give him, where he can join the other Judge Adams, from Marin. He’ll fit right in.
Long live the ACJ.

Sadly, Wendy. We think you are right. Justice California would probably agree. This man is a Family Law judge according to news reports. He acknowledges its him in the video, they say. We blogged of this judge and the Cal courts’ similarities on Katy’s. http://wp.me/plYPz-3dY
Thanks for the heads up, JCW.

Right you are, Wendy Darling.
I do believe Verna Adams would love this guy and his approach to parenting.

Per CNN on line today, the Judge admited it was him in the video. What an ass. I hope both he and the woman in the video with him go to jail.

Au Contraire….many California judges, most of whom are previous Deputy District Attorneys, hesitate in such situations as a matter of routine. JCW may be influenced by her location in the relative bastion of civilized grace that is liberal San Francisco Bay area as opposed to Red Eastern California twenty miles far from the Blue Pacific.
San Bernardino County Joshua Tree Courthouse Judge J. David Mazurek hesitated to keep psychopathic 25 year old father Stephen Garcia from shredding the body of 9 month old son Wyatt Garcia with bullets as Garcia had essentially telegraphed he would do via text messages to Wyatt’s mother Katie Tagle, an emails to Wyatt’s grandmother. After listening to Tagle and her mother plead in court for a restraining order to suspend visitation, Judge J. David Mazurek said to Tagle, “I get concerned when there’s a pending child custody and visitation issue and in between that, one party or the other claims that there’s some violence in between. It raises the court’s eyebrows because based on my experience, it’s a way for one party to try to gain an advantage over the other..” The minute order states to this day, “COURT FINDS THERE IS NOT THREAT TO PETITIONER OR THE MINOR CHILD. THE OSC IS DENIED. ”
Essentially, J. David Mazurek accused Katie Tagle of lying. (At previous hearings about other parties, Judge Mazurek had declared, “Parents can do want they want with their family.” The family in question was found by Justice Richli to “inculcate an excessive amount of fear in their children” and allowed their children of ages 4-17 to believe falsely that the man next door intended to kidnap, rape, and torture them. Despite this obvious sign of child abuse, neither Mazurek nor Richli reported the family to CPS.)
About a week later, Garcia appeared before San Bernardino Judge Lemkau, again asking to cease unsupervised visitation with the psychopathic father. Lemkau likewise hesitated to protect the baby and mother, and then flat out declared to 23 year old Tagle in open court, “”My suspicion is that you’re lying,” Later, Lemkau stated that he made his decision based reliance upon the previous calculation of Judge J. David Mazurek.
Within days, both Baby Wyatt and Stephen Garcia were dead.
Nonetheless, about 50 out of 72 San Bernardino Judges endorsed Lemkau for subsequent re-election. Many wrote they would have made exactly the same decision Lemkau had made. To this day, NONE of them had publicly suggested a single change of judicial procedure toward preventing the next 9 month old baby’s body from being shredded by bullets.
Tellingly, not one other judge in the State, and certainly no one at Judicial Council has made any such suggestions. Judge Mazurek’s confirmation will be in 2014.
Need I recount the insanity of San Bernardino Judge Craig S. Kaminsky? Sure, we have an admonition at http://cjp.ca.gov/res/docs/Public_Reprovals/Kamansky_9-14-92.pdf, but the video tape evidence Kamansky destroyed was related to the substantial allegations that Kamansky had sexual relationship with a 15 year old boy who he had declared a ward of his court, who subsequently committed suicide. Kamansky is not working as judge, but continues to practice as a mediator.
Finally, 4DCA2 Justice Betty Anne Richli, cohort of Judicial Council’s Justice Douglas Miller, and court of review for the likes of Judge Mazurek, Lemkau, and Kamansky, has just launched a full-frontal assault upon SCOTUS’s Troxel v. Granville, 530 US 57 recertification of parental rights to protect their children from people they deem to be harmful to the children, with her *published* opinion of HOAG v. DIEDJOMAHOR, Filed October 17, 2011.
In Hoag, Betty Anne Richli decided that the “best interest of the children” is that a “fit” father be forced by the State of California to send his children to be with people who have used illegal drugs, who associate with child sexual molesters, who have unsuccessfully attempted to take the children from him on the illegal basis that he must use a wheelchair and he is a citizen of another country, for which there is not one iota of evidence that they will not attempt to do so again thus subjecting the children to repeated threats of separation from the father they love, and who Justice Richli herself describes as sinful!
I would expect Richli to rule the distribution of this tape to be “retaliation” with no legitimate purpose since she would find that Ms. Adams could have reported the events to authorities directly rather that publicly embarrass a sitting public servant.

And now for “*any* substantial evidence, taken in the light most favorable to the judgement such that all other evidence may be obscured by the black shadow of a total eclipse, with no re-weighing of the evidence” considered with willful disregard and hostility to the edicts of SCOTUS Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, and, Cal: Supreme Court People v. Johnson, 606 P. 2d 738 – 1980 is the claim of retaliation by the person who with premeditation assaulted a 16 year old girl and even still is without remorse as is the habit of millions of American parents with full endorsement of the judiciary, law enforcement, attorneys, politicians, and vast swaths of the citizenry:
““Judge Adams is confident that when the dust settles and international media attention has passed, and the work ahead, whether civil, criminal, or administrative, has taken its full course and has been fully developed, with an opportunity for all sides to ask and answer relevant questions, it will be concluded that Hillary Adams’ actions in 2011 were misguided and misleading.” – so sayeth Judge Adams
And now we hear the D. A. has ruled the statute of limitations has expired.

More from Judge Adams regarding the ~retaliation his daughter inflicted upon him.~
Perhaps Hillary Adams should explain, if she felt she was raised by a tyrannical father, a claim shared with no one until five years after adulthood, why she insisted on living with her father and not her mother from the time of her parent’s divorce, until she moved out on her own. Hillary Adams has been living on her own for some time, and has been an adult for almost six years, so why post the video in late 2011?
William Adams is of the opinion that Hillary Adams is an extremely bright, highly functional, adult. The media has described her as a piano prodigy, who has competed at Carnegie Hall on multiple occasions. As one of Hillary’s long term teachers noted in the press, Hillary, so close to accomplishment, has of recent “inexplicably dropped out, just two classes shy of completing her [college] studies.”
The video in question was recorded well before Hillary graduated high school. If the public must know, just prior to the You Tube upload, a concerned father shared with his 23 year old daughter that he was unwilling to continue to work hard and be her primary source of financial support, if she was going to simply “drop out”, and strive to achieve no more in life than to work part time at a video game store. Hillary warned her father if he reduced her financial support, and took away her Mercedes automobile, which her father had provided, he would live to regret it. The post was then uploaded. The public may wonder if this is the tyranny of which Hillary Adams speaks as her reason to disseminate the video seven years after it was recorded, and five years into adulthood? Is this the reason she “hoarded” the video for seven years?
…
Judge Adams regrets, if true, that his daughter believes he is in need of healing from the family divorce. Divorce is certainly traumatic, and takes a significant toll on all, especially children. Judge Adams is of the opinion that Hillary’s gesture is little more than a much needed but hard to believe explanation of why she chose to post the video. If this entire event was a plea for help and healing, the methodology is certainly unorthodox. …
