In Our Opinion.....

Three weeks ago the Guardian’s front page headline read, “Court Orders Judge To Reunite Jing Kelly And Son.” The court referred to was the New York State Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department,
which had taken the rare action of issuing a Mandamus, literally commanding New York County Family Court Judge Sara P. Schechter to immediately arrange for visitation between Jing Kelly and her now six-year-old son.

The four-member panel who issued the order, had all been involved in the original decision back on November
17th of last year, when immediate visitation was called for Judge Schechter however, six weeks later, on December 29th continued to do everything in her power to keep Jing and Tristram Kelly apart.

Not only did she not set in motion the process of regular visitation, as specifically instructed to, but she also made certain that the child, who has been kept for at least two years in virtual false imprisonment in California in the home of Douglas Kelly, would remain there indefinitely to be evaluated by a psychologist. In calling for “immediate Visitation,” back in November, the Appellate Court declared that their reversal of Schechter’s denial of visitation to the mother, and maternal grandparents, was presumed to be in the best interests of the child.

The simple fact remains that this loving mother and her infant son have not seen each other, nor been permitted contact of any kind, since Gail Hiler, without any parole custody, without any legal authorization, however assisted by District Attorney Jeanine Pirro, kidnapped two-year-old Tristram from Jing Kelly. The monstrous injustice that Mrs. Pirro set in motion, and perpetuated by Gail Hiler, and members of her family, in total conspiracy and collusion with Judge Schechter, must be brought down immediately.

Apparently none of the participants in this cruel scheme, though law school graduates, believe in the Rule of Law. It is our latest understanding that Judge Schechter will not even hold a hearing in this most urgent case until late September, and that it will be many months before the commandment of the Appellate Court will be complied with, if ever. Her conduct in this case can only be viewed as the most reprehensible, contempt, not only for the Law, but also for the Human Rights of Jing and Tristram Kelly.

Therefore, we now call upon Judith Kay, Chief Judge of the State of New York to open an investigation into the suitability of New York County Family Court Judge Sara P. Schechter to continue sitting in that Court.

Furthermore, we are calling upon State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer to open an immediate investigation in the actions of former Westchester District Attorney, Jeanine Pirro, in the malicious prosecution of Jing Kelly, for Custodial Interference, as well as the organizing and arranging of the kidnapping of Jing Kelly’s infant son, Tristram.
