Mum’s hate campaign against stepmother in custody battle at Family Court
A MOTHER has lost custody of her two young daughters after she conducted an “obsessive” campaign against their new stepmother.
Family Court judge Justice Peter Young said he suspected it was the mother, 30, who painted “bitch” on the woman’s house and wrote “die dad haters” on her own car in felt-tipped pen and then sought to blame the stepmother, 28.
The judge said the sisters, aged 10 and seven, would be better off living with their father, 29, and his new wife, because their mother “would not likely change”.
He ordered an end to the shared custody which had been going on for more than five years and said the two girls should live full-time with their father.
“I find that he is capable of a greater level of responsive behaviour and conduct than is the mother and that is one of the considerations I have evaluated,” Justice Young said.Caught between warring parents, the sisters had to “tiptoe” around both households for fear of upsetting anyone.
“I lied!” says teenager involved in the St Kilda Football Club nude photo scandal
THE teenager involved in the St Kilda Football Club nude photo scandal has admitted she lied about taking the lewd images.
The girl said she was emailed the photographs in April last year by a St Kilda footballer.
She said she lied about taking the images because she was in shock.
"That was really stupid of me," the teenager told Nova radio’s Hughesy and Kate yesterday.
"I just went into shock when it got that much publicity.
"I think it was my first reaction … to say I took the photos, because I can’t get in trouble if they are my property."
The girl was threatened with legal action by the football club after she posted the nude photos of players on her Facebook account a week before Christmas.
"It is pointless, trying to fight the AFL is like fighting a losing battle," she said.
The 17-year-old, who can’t be named, turned up to a Saints training session on Monday and littered the reserve with handwritten flyers saying "Fight the Power" and "Women’s Rights".
She said she had sought counselling.
"I don’t really think about the future too much," she later said on Mix FM. "It is not looking too bright at the moment."
The girl, who claims to have been impregnated by one of the St Kilda players, said her motive behind posting the images was to stand up for women who had been in a similar situation.
The minor said all she wanted was an apology from the AFL and the St Kilda Football Club.
St Kilda CEO Michael Nettlefold said the club did not want to comment.
A police spokeswoman said an investigation continued and no charges had been laid.
Ugly feud fought on Facebook
A MOTHER in the middle of a custody dispute has been caught boasting on her Facebook page how she thought about ripping her husband off for another $20,000.
“Felt like being a smart arse,” she wrote, signing off “Bwahahaha lol.”
Lawyers are now advising their clients locked in Family Court fights to take down their Facebook pages as the networking site has become both the latest weapon and target for warring spouses.
In one case a woman discovered her husband was a bigamist when she was tipped off to look at wedding photographs of him with another bride on the other woman’s Facebook page.
In another case a husband discovered he had been set up by his wife with a woman he thought he met on an internet site. He discovered the woman was a “friend” on his wife’s Facebook page.
“I tell my clients just don’t bloody do it, don’t be silly” family law expert Michael Taussig QC said.
The woman who boasted she had thought about dragging out the Family Court case to cost her ex-husband an extra $20,000 in legal bills found it backfired on her.
Justice James Barry granted custody of the two children, aged nine and eight, to their father with the mother getting visiting rights.
He then ordered the mother to pay $15,000 of her ex-husband’s estimated $35,000 legal bill, saying the mother’s behaviour had been the “stuff of nightmares”.
She had already strung the case out by falsely claiming her ex-husband had been sexually assaulting their children after one judgment went against her. Then she falsely claimed the father’s new wife had been assaulting them.
“The mother has over the years attempted to manipulate the court system,” Justice Barry said.
