Family Court FAILED - How Judges Gave Homeless Travis Decker Access to Kill His Daughters Description: In this premium episode of Hidden Killers, we deliver the most comprehensive analysis yet of how family court judges catastrophically failed three innocent children by granting a homeless, mentally ill Travis Decker continued access to his daughters despite overwhelming evidence of danger. Expert psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski for an explosive investigation into judicial negligence that directly enabled the murders of Olivia, Evelyn, and Paityn Decker. This in-depth analysis exposes the specific judicial decisions that prioritized Travis Decker's parental rights over child safety, despite clear evidence of his mental breakdown, homelessness, and dangerous behavior. We examine court documents, custody evaluation reports, and mental health assessments that should have triggered immediate protection for these children but were instead ignored by family court officials. Shavaun Scott provides expert psychological analysis of how judges and court-appointed professionals failed in their duty to protect vulnerable children from a parent who exhibited multiple risk factors for familicide. We break down each decision point where different choices could have saved three young lives and explore the systemic corruption that allows dangerous parents to maintain custody rights through manipulation of legal proceedings. This premium investigation reveals how Travis Decker's homelessness, mental illness, and dangerous lifestyle should have immediately disqualified him from any custody visits. We examine the specific warnings that were dismissed, the red flags that were ignored, and the fundamental failures in risk assessment that enabled this preventable tragedy. Our analysis includes expert recommendations for urgent family court reforms needed to prevent similar failures. The Travis Decker case represents one of the most egregious examples of family court failure in modern history, where judicial negligence directly facilitated the murder of three children who depended on the system to protect them. This comprehensive analysis exposes the deadly consequences when courts prioritize parental rights over child welfare and safety. #FamilyCourtFailed #TravisDecker #JudicialNegligence #HomelessParent #ChildProtection #CustodyMurder #SystemFailure #CourtCorruption #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today. When we learn to share the Gospel, we become part of something eternal. This past September, Samuel walked into our ministry's offices in Uganda. Homeless, jobless, and abandoned, he'd spent nights on the streets of Kampala, desperate and hopeless. He told us, “I thought about ending my life so many times…I just needed someone to talk to.” And that's when he met Francis. Francis listened, and he shared the Gospel. In just 25 minutes, Samuel surrendered his life to Jesus, tears streaming down his face. He received a Bible, prayer, and a bus ticket home. And just four days later—Samuel got a job offer just out of the blue! Today, he's working and growing in his faith at a local church in his hometown. God works through believers who'll bring hope to people like Samuel. But it's our job to be ready to share! Not sure how to share your faith? For resources to help you get started, visit our website at sharelife.today.

OFFICIAL WEBSITE: https://ashleapiefer.com/From a young age, I felt a deep connection to energies that most people can't see—the world beyond the physical realm. I perceived spirits, entities, and subtle forces that shaped our reality. It was overwhelming and isolating initially. I felt different, as though I didn't belong. I believed I was alone in these experiences, wondering if perhaps something was wrong with me. However, as I grew older, everything changed. I experienced a profound spiritual awakening that completely shifted my perspective on life. I realized that I wasn't crazy—I was tapping into dimensions and frequencies that few understood. This awakening opened me to the profound knowledge that true fulfillment doesn't come from material possessions, no matter how perfect they may appear on the surface. True fulfillment arises from within, by recognizing the value of our energy and the significance of life itself. Through this awakening, I began connecting with cosmic beings and ascended masters—the Pleiadians, Syrians, Andromedans, and the ancient Dragon Mothers—who taught me profound truths about consciousness, energy, and the divine feminine. As I continued to study ancient wisdom, neuroplasticity, and the mysteries of the universe, I came to realize that everything is interconnected. I could see how energy flows through everything, from the physical body to the unseen realms. My journey hasn't been without challenges. I've faced adversity and trauma, including the experience of homelessness at 15. But every obstacle and experience has shaped who I am today. These trials led me to a life of deep introspection and ultimately to my calling as a spiritual guide and meditation coach. Now, I dedicate my life to helping others reconnect with their true, authentic selves. Through mindfulness, meditation, ancient teachings, and spiritual guidance, I help individuals transcend limiting beliefs and harness the power of their energy. My mission is to guide you through your journey—whether you're awakening to your psychic gifts, seeking peace amidst chaos, or learning to navigate the unseen dimensions that surround us. It's not about perfection. It's about progress, remembering who you are at your core, and finding peace within. If my story resonates with you and you're seeking something more profound, know that you are not alone. I'm here, walking the path with you, ready to guide you back to your true self.

Caitlin Crosby started life in the spotlight, right out of the gate. Her parents met in “the industry” in Hollywood, and she grew up in front of the camera. In her teens, she began writing songs with Babyface and subsequently signed to his label, Arista Records.But once she was out on tour… Caitlin realized she was destined for more. She didn't care about the same things as other “normal” Hollywood girls. While they were focused on getting into the hottest club, she was dreaming about ending homelessness, participating in her church youth group, and helping people feel secure in their bodies by celebrating their flaws.It all led to one fateful day, when a chance meeting with a young homeless couple would change everything… and lead her to start a spiritual enterprise business called The Giving Keys that would come to touch hearts across Los Angeles, and eventually the world…… including the ultimate heart to be moved, that of Oprah Winfrey's (!), naming Caitlin to her coveted list, her “Super Soul 100.”Tune in for a dose of inspiration and a reminder that a life lived in service tends to be the happiest life of all.********Show Notes:A big thank you to Caitlin Crosby for joining us and sharing your inspiring story.

In Multnomah County, the number of deaths of homeless residents grew from 113 in 2019 to more than 450 in 2023. Research has found that encampment sweeps can threaten the health of people experiencing homelessness. Portland has carried out 19,000 sweeps since 2021, according to city records. Reporting from Street Roots and ProPublica examines why residents of Multnomah County die at a higher rate than in any major West Coast county, according to available homeless mortality data. K. Rambo is the editor-in-chief of Street Roots and produced the story for ProPublica’s Local Reporting Network. Rambo joins us with details.
GDP Script/ Top Stories for June 17th Publish Date: June 17th From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, June 17th and Happy Birthday to Roberto Duran. I’m Keith Ippolito and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Man who started fire in Norcross to evade ICE agents headed to prison Gwinnettians denounce Trump policies during 'No Kings' protest Snellville Police Say 2 Arrested In Connection To Shooting At Briscoe Park All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG (07.14.22 KIA MOG) STORY 1: Man who started fire in Norcross to evade ICE agents headed to prison Armando Carrillo-Diaz, a 45-year-old undocumented immigrant from Mexico, was sentenced to five years in federal prison for arson, assaulting a federal officer, and illegal reentry into the U.S. In December 2022, he attacked a Gwinnett police officer with a machete. In April 2023, he fled from ICE agents in his truck. In July 2023, he set fire to his Norcross apartment to evade arrest, displacing 20-30 residents and injuring himself. Federal prosecutors highlighted his dangerous actions, which endangered law enforcement and the public. The case involved multiple agencies, emphasizing the commitment to holding individuals accountable for reckless and violent behavior. STORY 2: Gwinnettians denounce Trump policies during 'No Kings' protest This weekend, over 1,500 people gathered in Suwanee for a 'No Kings' protest against President Trump's policies. Organized by local volunteer Kevin Vazquez, the event aimed to highlight concerns over women's rights, immigration, and the administration's direction. Suwanee resident Maria King-Smart joined to advocate for democracy, declaring, 'History repeats itself, and I don’t want it to.' Protestors held signs like 'Defend Democracy' and 'No Kings Since 1776.' The peaceful demonstration contrasted with clashes at protests elsewhere. The event emphasized community unity, with Gwinnett County’s diverse voices calling for change. State Rep. Jasmine Clark labeled Trump a 'parasite' needing history lessons. STORY 3: Snellville Police Say 2 Arrested In Connection To Shooting At Briscoe Park In Snellville authorities have arrested two teenagers in connection to the May 31 shooting at Briscoe Park, which left six people injured. Police say 17-year-old Joshua Senai Zere of Stone Mountain was taken into custody on June 11 and faces five counts of party to a crime of aggravated assault. The next day, 17-year-old Eric Meier Harris of Dacula was arrested, charged with four counts of aggravated assault. Thankfully, all victims are expected to recover. For more details or to assist with the investigation, contact Lt. Trey Downs at tdowns@snellville.org. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 1 STORY 4: ‘A real mess’ — Homeless camp frustrates property owners while its cleanup leaves residents scrambling Robby Workman and Faith Zilka, a homeless couple in Norcross, have faced repeated displacement after makeshift shelters they built near I-85 were bulldozed. Struggling to stay dry amidst constant rain, they now wander the streets, battling trench foot and exhaustion. Denied stable shelter, the pair survives by collecting scrap metal, yet earn only enough for basics like food. Workman dreams of buying a vehicle to improve their situation, but obstacles remain. Local businesses, citing cleanliness and safety concerns, have pressured authorities to clear camps. Despite hardships, Workman warns, 'Anyone is one paycheck away from being here.' Their resilience remains unwavering. STORY 5: Piedmont Eastside Medical Center Opens Neurology Practice Piedmont Eastside Medical Center welcomed neurologists Dr. Ogonna Iwuora [Oh-GOH-nah Ee-WOR-ah] and Dr. Paula Lee to Piedmont Neurology at Eastside. Located on Tree Lane, the practice now offers advanced treatments for conditions like epilepsy, dementia, and headaches. Dr. Iwuora, board-certified in neurology and neurophysiology, completed her fellowship at Emory University and specializes in dementia and epilepsy care. Dr. Lee brought over a decade of expertise, focusing on refractory epilepsy and therapies like RNS and VNS. She trained at Tufts Medical Center and Northwestern Memorial Hospital. Accepting new patients, the team provides personalized care options with modern, non-invasive techniques. Break: STORY 6: Summer school is a time to get ahead at Georgia Gwinnett College This summer, a record 5,300 students enrolled at Georgia Gwinnett College, proving summer isn’t just for vacations. Many are earning credits to graduate early, boosting GPAs, or exploring new subjects. Nursing student Phoenix Winbush says summer classes help her stay focused, earning top grades. IT major Isaiah Jones uses the term to explore history and psychology. With compressed five-week courses, students like Winbush emphasize the need for discipline. Financial aid is available for eligible students, but Assistant Director Jacqueline Garcia Mendez advises balancing workloads to stay on track. For some, like visiting student Sara Swope, GGC’s atmosphere and professors are a major draw. STORY 7: NCG Cinemas opening new Snellville theater this weekend NCG Cinemas celebrated the grand opening of its new location in Snellville’s Presidential Markets shopping center last Friday. The event kicked off with a ribbon cutting and a VIP night featuring free screenings of movies like 'How To Train Your Dragon' and 'Karate Kid Legends.' The theater, located at 1905 Scenic Highway North, boasts luxury reclining seats and the world’s first Klipsch Studio Experience sound system, offering top-notch audio. Formerly an AMC theater, NCG aims to revamp the moviegoing experience. Tickets are now available online, welcoming movie lovers to enjoy the pinnacle of cinematic entertainment in Snellville.

A local man who made vague threats against President Trump visited by Secret Service, patient abuse alleged at Providence clinic in Olympia and an MSNBC contributor likens Kyle Kashuv to a school shooter. A rapist who was released from jail is on the loose after assaulting the woman he raped again and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez compares detained immigrants to concentration camps. Homeless people may be removing cinder blocks and doing more damage under I-5 overpasses.
Abby and Patrick welcome journalist and anthropologist Brian Goldstone to discuss his new book, There is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America. A devastating and essential read, There is No Place for Us tells the stories of five Atlanta families as they join the ranks of an ever-growing class of Americans: the unhoused. Against the grain of common misconceptions about homelessness, the trajectory of these families reflects no errors or blameworthy mistakes on their part, nor still does their situation represent any kind of exception to the rule. In fact, as Brian explains, their stories expose how a variety of institutions – from housing markets to credit monitoring to policing and more – work together to actively push millions of Americans into homelessness, to trap them there, and to exploit their vulnerabilities at every turn. Moreover, as Brian, Abby, and Patrick explore, this reality is mystified by mainstream narratives, prevailing ideologies, and broader anxieties about precarity and homelessness. Unpacking questions of policy, history, and contemporary media coverage, the three discuss how misguided narratives about individual choice, moral desert, mental health, and more subvert recognition of what should be a basic right and policy priority (IE, access to housing), and confront what it would mean to cut through these and other fantasies.Brian Goldstone, There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/645871/there-is-no-place-for-us-by-brian-goldstone/https://www.briangoldstone.net/Have you noticed that Freud is back?

Protestors took to the streets downtown on Tuesday in solidarity with demonstrations in LA over ICE raids, and more protests are planned across the metro over the weekend. But will protesters — and police — keep it peaceful? Then, Mayor Mike Johnston celebrated the “largest multi-year reduction in unsheltered homelessness in American history,” but the data leaves a lot of questions unanswered. Westword editor-in-chief Patty Calhoun joins producer Paul Karolyi and host Bree Davies to discuss whether the mayor should be touting such a milestone, what we saw at the protests, and wins and fails of the week. Bree talked about Jax Gratton and Casa Bonita's Founders Club. Paul mentioned BusinessDen's report on the Broncos' secret land deals, hilarious local comedian Liv Carter, the AID Center closing, Jovanina's fight with the city, the new foie gras ballot effort. Patty talked about Juneteenth, Aurora City Council's new meeting policy, and Stan Kroenke's latest move on the River Mile development. We also talked about our episodes earlier this week with DPD chief Ron Thomas and AG candidate David Seligman.

Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani condemned a flier circulated by a super PAC supporting Andrew Cuomo during Thursday's mayoral debate. The flier criticizes Mamdani's record on Israel. Meanwhile, a new report from the Coalition for the Homeless finds nearly 73,000 non-asylum-seeking New Yorkers slept in shelters last year — a 12 percent increase from the year before. Also, the father of a missing Bronx toddler is pleading not guilty to murder, manslaughter, and menacing charges. Finally, in this week's transit segment: Mamdani calls for free city buses, Cuomo weighs in on MTA funding, and we explore why the A train serves three parts of Queens.

The city of Anchorage plans to clear a large encampment of homeless people at a park in mid-June following years of complaints and public safety problems. The park has seen two fatal shootings and a large fire in recent months. The city's move is one of dozens of encampment “abatements” around the country following a U.S. Supreme Court decision that allows such law enforcement actions. Some cities have multi-pronged strategies to help homeless residents further displaced when officials clear encampments. We'll explore where solutions may lie in the balance between compassion and public safety. GUESTS Jim LaBelle (Iñupiaq), member of the Anchorage Native Community Council James Lovell (Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians), chief community development officer for the Chief Seattle Club Rene' Williams (Colville), director of strategic initiatives for the California Native Vote Project Reva Stewart (Diné), owner of Shush Diné Native Shop, founder of Stolen People, Stolen Benefits, and founder of Turtle Island Women Warriors

Rent Pressure Zones are to be extended to cover the entire country. Sweeping new changes will be brought to cabinet for approval today following a meeting of government leaders last night. In a major change to how renting works in the country - every single tenancy will be in a Rent Pressure Zone This means yearly rent increases will be capped at 2 per cent or linked to inflation - whichever is lower. However, rents in newly built homes will only be linked to inflation.

Nothing says efficient government like spending $350,000 to clean up a homeless encampment that officials have ignored for over a decade. Oregon's Department of State Lands finally decided to address the Sandy River Delta situation—with hazmat crews, private security, and yes, bear mace for activists who dared to interfere.We dive into this spectacular display of bureaucratic problem-solving where officials claim there's no housing available while simultaneously spending hundreds of thousands on cleanup crews. Watch as activists get maced for protecting people living in conditions the state created through years of policy neglect. Meanwhile, campers face the impossible choice between nonexistent shelter options and arrest for trespassing on land they've occupied without enforcement action for years.Is anyone surprised that the 'solution' involves more security contractors than social workers? How exactly does ignoring a problem for a decade suddenly make it an emergency worth $350,000 in taxpayer money? And why are we spraying citizens with bear mace instead of addressing the root causes that put them there?

The mics pop like champagne as we usher Miami OG Lea Black back for part 2 in Dallas. What follows is a glitter cannon of gossip, gratitude, and girdle-tight life lessons—all in under an hour. Glitter vs. Grit Lea opens her designer diary: she once slid to the side so “drop-dead gorgeous” Joanna Krupa could shine, and even loaned baubles to castmates “starring in rented houses and leased Jaguars.” She applauds Bethenny Frankel's rag-to-Skinnygirl rise while roasting fame junkies who'll chase a camera “to the opening of an envelope.” Hollywood Stories & Humble Queens Grab your autograph book. Lea bumps into Faye Dunaway disguised in Juicy Couture, the boys accept a curbside first edition from Dyan Cannon, and Pol' watches Zoë Saldana crawl on the boutique floor to play with puppy SnowWhite90210. Patrik fires back: mistaking Courtney Love for a “homeless lady,” then auctioning Pamela Anderson's lap for $10 K at a gala. The moral, via icons Betty White and Anna Nicole Smith: class never goes out of style. Skincare Royalty & the Chump Army We chat about Lea Black Beauty serums, masks, and miracle oil and Pol' confesses he ditched Obagi for Lea Black Beauty. Cosmic Signs & Coffee Grounds Pol's 2nd half of Lea's Armenian coffee divination crowns Lea “queen of limitless lanes.” Two new ventures shimmer in the grinds: an affordable-housing empire for son RJ and a hush-hush jewelry play. The trio compare destiny detours—from a Phuket flight missed before the 2004 tsunami to pilots grounding planes on “feng-shui feelings.” Hot Topics & Runway Rundown Headlines fly: Gene Hackman's carbon-monoxide tragedy prompts a detector PSA. Jeff Bezos plans to rocket Lauren Sanchez, Gayle King, and Katy Perry into orbit—Lea yells “Prenup, please!”Fashion time: Pol' torches the RHOM reunion looks—Lisa Hochstein's iridescent foil (“Forever 21 clearance”), Larsa Pippen's emerald ruche, and Alexia's metallic mini—branding the set “Star-Wars prom.” By contrast, Greg Lotus's portrait of Lea in a bias-cut ivory gown is christened “Rich-Bitch Perfection.” Money, Morals & Mega-Billions Lea slams corporate layoff kings, privatized-FAA chaos, and royal PR spin. Her mantra: “Show me where you spend your money, time, and influence, and I'll show your values.” Love, Security & Limitless Hustle Coffee grounds confirm attorney/philanthropist Roy Black is Lea's steady North Star—“that box is forever checked.” With home secure, she juggles a dozen gigs and yearns for five more. Patrik crowns her the “Ozempic of people—one shot and your goals slim to what matters.” Lea's final words: “I feel naked—inside and out—but drape me in couture and 60 carats, darling!” This is another Hurrdat Media Production.

What if the real solution to homelessness isn't more shelters—but a complete rethink of how we treat the crisis? Joining Gregg to talk about it is Ron Book—Lawyer, Lobbyist, Nobel Peace Prize nominee & Chairman of the Miami-Dade Homeless Trust. This incredible organization has created what is considered the “National Best Practice Model” for ending homelessness. In this episode of Cut to the Chase, Ron gives us some “compassionate tough love” as he reveals how Miami-Dade went from over 8,000 people living on the streets to less than 900. He breaks down Miami-Dade's approach which includes focusing on long-term housing solutions, running the Trust like a business, and never being afraid to own mistakes, iterate, and try new approaches. Tune in to learn the realities of affordable housing in America, myths around encampments and panhandling, and the key behind Miami's success in reducing houselessness. What you'll learn in this episode: Inside Miami's homelessness model: A business-like approach with zero debt, full audits, and reinvested rent The housing-first reality behind homelessness—and why Miami turns hotels and federal land into homes, not shelters Why street encampments and panhandling aren't compassion—they're barriers to real recovery and lasting change “The Lazarus Project”: The organization that sends medical teams to the streets to connect the chronically homeless with long-term care Why tiny homes aren't a gimmick—when done right, they're a scalable, dignified solution with real impact The secret to Miami's success: $47 million in dedicated annual funding, strong leadership, and a disciplined plan Key Takeaways: End Homelessness, Don't Maintain It: Real change means moving people off the streets—not enabling sidewalk survival with panhandling and handouts. Treat Homelessness Like a Business: Track outcomes, audit every dollar, and require buy-in from residents—accountability drives lasting solutions. Repurpose What Exists: Transform hotels, federal land, and underused spaces into scalable housing—from tiny homes to transitional facilities. Fund Solutions, Not Symptoms: A dedicated food and beverage tax powers Miami-Dade's long-term success—proving the value of steady funding. Build with a Plan, Not Politics: Success comes from a clear strategy, strong leadership, and community buy-in—not short-term fixes.

Have you ever felt like you're doing all the right things—reading the books, thinking positive, taking action—but your life still feels stuck? Like there's an invisible wall between where you are and the life you want? In this powerful episode, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Joe Vitale—best known from The Secret—who opens up about his raw, real-life journey from homelessness and heartbreak to bestselling author, spiritual teacher, and MMA student at age 71. He shares the truth about what it really takes to manifest a better life—and spoiler alert—it's not just about wishing for it. You'll walk away feeling uplifted and grounded. You'll learn how to catch and shift your negative thoughts, understand the real role your beliefs play in shaping your life, and why forgiveness—especially of yourself—is a key to breaking through what's been holding you back. After listening, I invite you to try this: Start noticing your inner talk. When doubt or worry creeps in, pause. Ask yourself: What am I feeding my mind right now? Then choose one small shift—change the channel, change the thought, change the energy. Because the smallest shifts in focus can create the biggest changes in your reality.

Another day, another small business destroyed by government's refusal to deal with reality. Dr. Tahani Solomon is shutting down her medical practice after homeless encampments on a neighboring rooftop have terrorized her staff for years, costing her over $100,000 in damages from fires, theft, and vandalism. Meanwhile, LA just approved spending $7,000 per month per homeless individual while cutting police and fire budgets. We dive into how razor wire, barbed fences, and caged AC units couldn't stop the chaos that city officials claim they "can't do anything about." Yet somehow if you or I tried camping on that same rooftop, we'd be arrested instantly. The hypocrisy is staggering, and the pattern is undeniable.Is this really about helping the homeless, or is there a bigger agenda at play? Why do hardworking taxpayers get zero protection while drug-addled urban campers get a free pass to destroy private property? When will voters finally connect the dots between their ballot choices and these predictable disasters?
L.A.'s top homeless services official Va Lecia Adams Kellum engaged in major misconduct, including hiring unqualified friends into powerful positions, trying to destroy public records and behaving inappropriately at a conference, according to two whistleblower claim letters obtained by LAist.The letters were written by an attorney on behalf of two former L.A. Homeless Services Authority employees who alleged they were wrongfully fired for speaking up against wrongdoing by Adams Kellum. Written claims such as these are a required step before filing a lawsuit against a local government in California.
