My grandchildren and my rights continue to be volated,has a conflict of interest with children service. The very system that in charge of protecting children continue to put children in harm way by allowing children service to decide what happen to people children and grandchildren.

The court has never been run with less efficiency in its history since Kohlreiser got there. Its a joke how long it takes to get anything done. Judge Kinworthy would be ashamed.

Had court today and the magistrate was very nice. Gave probation to my 15 yr old son. For him admitting he was in the wrong they were very nice, but he has come a long way since the incident.
