       ******************************************************************

My name is Pilar, and 3.5 years ago, I was completely erased from my oldest daughter's life, zero rights, and all financial obligations.

I am not a prostitute; I don't use drugs, don't physically or emotionally harm my children, and I am not an alcoholic. Still, judge Abbe Ross decided after a 4-day trial that I am an unfit parent, maybe because I am Latina or because she didn't want the burden of reading a thick file with 11 years of litigation, and chose the easy way out. My then 8-year-old Sofia was removed from my home and placed in the custody of her narcissistic father, who has been bleeding me financially since then. Sofia and her young baby sister were separated as well, with no option for reunification.

Despite my pain and desolation, I refused to remain passive, so I looked for other victims of the same judge. To my surprise, I was one of many. All of them had experienced the same biased behavior of this judge, who refuses to include witness testimony and physical evidence of the parent she dislikes into her findings, she will then issue a judgment tergiversating facts to support her biased opinion while disregarding completely all the evidence presented by one of the parties. 

I connected with all those victims and learned about their experiences, and we found a pattern of biased behavior. We filed countless complaints with the Judicial Conduct Commission, contacted our State Representatives, and filed numerous petitions to remove Abbe Ross from the bench. Finally, in early 2021, with State Representative Lenny Mirra's help, we got our Bill of Address docketed. At this point, we only need YOUR support please by printing, signing, and mailing your support letter. PLEASE! (Supporting this just through Change.org won't work. They need your letters sent by regular mail).

Once the docket is assigned to a Massachusetts Senate committee, they will hear our testimony and evaluate the number of letters received supporting the Bill of Address. Your letter can make a huge difference in the lives of many families. Please help me and others who have lost our children because of judicial corruption.
