    Inside the Kansas House Judiciary Committee Hearing: What a Judge Said About Family Courts Should Alarm Every Parent

    Dive deep into the heartbreaking, high-stakes testimonies presented before the Kansas House Committee on Judiciary. This episode exposes the systemic crises facing parents and children navigating the Kansas family court and child support systems. From allegations of "pay-to-parent" financial gatekeeping and undocumented hearings to the lack of due process in ex parte custody removals, we unpack the firsthand accounts of parents fighting to stay in their children’s lives. We explore how courts manage (or mismanage) Guardian ad Litem (GAL) fees, child support enforcement, and mandatory supervised visitation, leaving many families financially ruined and separated. Key Topics Covered: "Gated Justice" & Financial Exhaustion: How exorbitant GAL fees, required therapy, and case management costs act as barriers to parental rights. Due Process Violations: Missing court transcripts, unsigned journal entries, and ex parte custody removals without timely evidentiary hearings. Undisclosed Conflicts of Interest: Court-appointed conciliators and professionals operating with alleged bias or hidden professional relationships. Enforcement Disparities: The aggressive garnishment of child support versus the lack of enforcement for court-ordered parenting time. Courts Mentioned in this Episode: Kansas House Committee on Judiciary, District Court of Shawnee County, Kansas (Third Judicial District), District Court of Johnson County, Kansas (Family Court Division), Sedgwick County Family Court, Pottawatomie County Court, Douglas County Court, Anderson County Court, Jefferson County Court, Jackson County Court, Osage County Court, Wabaunsee County Court, Dickinson County Court,  Kansas Supreme Court and Appellate Courts Key Actors, Testifiers, & Officials Involved: Judges Discussed: Judge Keven M.

    Justice Denied: Judge Keven O’Grady, the Sands Case, and the Cost of Procedure

    In this episode, I break down the disturbing allegations surrounding Judge Keven O’Grady, the Nicholas “Nick” Sands case, and how court procedure can be used to block truth. This case raises serious questions about Kansas family court, default paternity rulings, DNA testing, wrongful death settlements, inheritance rights, and whether judicial finality is being prioritized over biological truth and basic justice. From missed deadlines and denied testing to the financial stakes tied to legal paternity, this episode exposes why the Sands case has become a powerful example of how family court systems can protect procedure instead of people. If you care about family court corruption, due process, paternity fraud, judicial accountability, and the fight for truth in Kansas courts, this is an episode you need to hear.

    Civil Rights vs. Civil Wrongs: Inside the RICO Case Rocking Pennsylvania’s Family Court

    Welcome to The Stand With Meg Show — where we defend parents’ rights, protect children, and give a voice to the voiceless. Today, we're pulling back the curtain on a jaw-dropping federal lawsuit that’s shaking the pillars of local government. In Jackson v. Ziccarelli et al., one pro se father, a disabled combat veteran, takes on the entire Westmoreland County legal apparatus. Judges, DAs, police, lawyers, and agencies are all named in a civil RICO complaint alleging conspiracy, fraud, malicious prosecution, and the unlawful seizure of his children. We break down the 50+ page filing and federal docket to unpack the chilling claim at its core: that the family court system itself has been weaponized against the very people it’s sworn to protect. Is this just a custody dispute gone wrong or is it proof that justice has a price tag, and some are paying with their children? This is a masterclass in lawfare, courage, and the cost of speaking truth to power. Grab your notebook. This isn’t just a podcast. It’s a blueprint for every parent fighting back.

    Blueprints of Justice: Two Mothers, Two Battles, One Broken System

    Welcome to The Stand With Meg Show — Defending Parents’ Rights. Protecting Children. Giving a Voice to the Voiceless. Today’s episode is a masterclass in grit, grief, and the guts it takes to face down the family court system. We unpack two seismic legal battles: the decades-long civil rights case of Deanna Fogerty and her daughter Presley Hardwick in California, and the ongoing digital-fueled federal litigation of Meg’s story rooted in Missouri and Kansas. One is a war waged over twenty years for accountability. The other is a real-time campaign for visibility and systemic reform. What connects them? A mother’s unyielding love. What divides them? The legal playbook — and whether our courts still answer to the Constitution. From hidden GPS trackers to 30-page judicial findings, from state courts to federal dockets, we follow the legal strategies, the outcomes, and the immunity shields that make justice so elusive for families like yours. Because this isn’t just history — it’s a roadmap for parents who are still in the fire. And we’re here to say: you’re not crazy, you’re not alone, and you can fight back.

    Fighting for Fairness: The 3-Day Deadline Debate in Federal Court

    On this episode of The Stand With Meg Show, I pull back the curtain on the federal case Meghann R. Miller v. Kansas DCF — and the procedural battle threatening to silence a mother’s fight for justice. You’ll hear two powerful segments: The Deep Dive — A clear, factual unpacking of the arguments I filed in federal court, including allegations of due process violations, retaliation for protected speech, and bureaucratic failures that prolonged my forced separation from my children.The Debate — A sharp legal clash over whether my 3-day late filing — caused by trauma and health issues directly tied to the very case I’m fighting — should be forgiven under the doctrine of excusable neglect.This isn’t just about a missed deadline. It’s about whether the court will weigh strict rules over human rights, or finally hear the truth on its merits. 🎧 Listen now to understand why this case could set a precedent for every parent fighting for their children — especially those forced to do it alone. I’m breaking down what happened when I missed a federal court deadline by 3 days — and why the stakes are so much bigger than just a date on a calendar. 💥 Hear how I turned trauma into evidence.  💥 Understand the legal battle I’m facing — solo.  💥 And ask yourself: If a state lawyer gets 2 weeks’ grace, why can’t a mother get 3 days? 📲 Listen now on The Stand With Meg Show — because justice shouldn't be denied over a technicality. www.StandwithMeg.com Support the show Thank you for listening to The Stand With Meg Show — Defending Parents’ Rights.

    Dismantling Corruption: Dr. Teri Ann’s Fight for Families, Freedom, and Arizona

    What happens when the system takes everything — your business, your voice, your rights — and refuses to give you due process? You fight back. On this episode of The Stand With Meg Show, I sit down with Dr. Teri Ann, a mother, mental health advocate, and now grassroots gubernatorial hopeful from Arizona. After building a behavioral health practice serving thousands, her business was demolished by a broken court system and corrupt agencies that refused to follow the law. She didn’t back down. She filed lawsuits. She filed to run for office. And now she’s fighting for every family who’s been silenced by power and forgotten by government. This is about more than family court. It’s about every court. It’s about all of us. 🔗 Learn more and sign the petition if you’re in Arizona: www.usaadvocate4all.org Support the show Thank you for listening to The Stand With Meg Show — Defending Parents’ Rights.

    Family Court is Failing Our Kids: One Father’s Fight for Fairness

    Welcome to The Stand With Meg Show — Defending Parents’ Rights. Protecting Children. Giving a Voice to the Voiceless. In today’s powerful episode, Meg is joined by Ben, founder of Menbuse and creator of the AI-powered custody tool "DocketMind." Together, they expose the silent epidemic of father erasure in family court and the cultural biases that pit mothers and fathers against each other — all while the court cashes in on broken homes. Ben opens up about the emotional and financial cost of fighting for 50/50 custody, how it reshaped his view of fatherhood, and why he believes the real audience is the kids. But this isn’t just about what Ben survived — it’s about what he’s building. He now coaches moms and dads behind the scenes, helping families stay out of court and resolve custody with wisdom, peace, and strength. This conversation is different. It’s not about blame — it’s about heart. Meg shares what she sees in Ben’s character and why his mission matters, and Ben reflects on Meg’s courage and how her voice has ignited hope in thousands. It’s a meeting of advocates, a meeting of warriors, and a meeting of hearts. This is not about taking sides. This is about truth. And about fighting for a system that honors both parents — and protects the child. — 🔗 Connect with Ben & Menbuse: 🌐 Website: https://menbuse.org 🎯 Donate: https://givebutter.com/MenbuseDonation 📱 Socials: @MenbuseUsORG — Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Threads 🌐 Website: StandWithMeg.com  📱 Socials: @StandWithMeg  — Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, Threads  🎙️ Podcast: The Stand With Meg Show — available on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube ✉️ Contact: info@standwithmeg.com Support the show Thank you for listening to The Stand With Meg Show — Defending Parents’ Rights.
