I never even met her. I had only one 5 minute phone call with her and tried emailing all of my evidence since she wouldn't actually speak to me. She wrote her report after talking with only my ex husband. She never interviewed my children even but stated in her reports "Christian stated Connor said...." Christian is my ex husband and she took ONLY his word for everything.

She also got my visits put on constant supervision after claiming she spoke to my father who I lived with at the time and he "stated he will no longer supervise visits". My father has NEVER spoke to her but she used this to get my rights taken.

She pretends to be a GAL but doesn’t legally qualify under Indiana Law. If this were any other profession she’d be in jail for “impersonating.”

She is not legally qualified under Indiana law to be a GAL. She didn’t belong to any state GAL/CASA Program, she isn’t an attorney and she isn’t employed by the court. She is self employed. None of her reports contain a signature. Her email is a personal gmail address, her phone is a personal cell phone and payments are to be sent to a PO Box. She has now retired, only after ABC57 investigated her…she belongs in jail.

She failed to fulfill her duties as GAL failure to comply with GAL guidelines. Told a judge in open court i was being "petty" due to stating safety concerns as cause for objection to her reccomendations for expanded visits. She never even met my child never spoke to care providers made reccomendations that created interference with the standing and still active protective order against my ex husband granted by Judge Bonfiglio as part of the plea deal to the felony case against him.

Disregarded evidence of threats to harm my child. Would make unnecessary personal jabs at me in reports supposed to be intended to evaluate my ex husband's actions within supervised visits. Never did home inspections, never asked for pictures of anyone's environments. …
