It seems that
psychologist Lee Peiffer was not only good at being fooled; she was even better
fooling the judge.
I had court in the
morning because she had asked for a protection order. As I entered the
courtroom I was shocked to see Groff. He began to talk, but I told him,
"It's time for us to part company." He agreed and took a place
behind me in the courtroom. I didn't understand why he was there. I figured it
out later.
As I understand it,
the judge was Merton B. Tice. Pfeiffer came in with her lawyer-looking like she
was going to a funeral. They brought me in with chains on.
Clearly, Tice
wanted to feel righteous and help Pfeiffer. He didn't want to investigate so he
chose to intimidate from the bench. I argued quite a bit but I had no chance. I
thought I would see how dumb he really was so I called Pfeiffer as "Dr.
Pfeiffer." I knew she didn't have a doctorate in anything, so I wanted to
see how this would fly. Tice grabbed up the phony title and called Pfeiffer
"Dr. Pfeiffer the rest of the time. Pfieffer just sat there and let them
call her Doctor Pfieffer all the hearing without correcting anything.
As if Tice hadn't
proven himself stupid already, when it came to telling me what would happen if
I violated the protection order. He really nailed it down. The law states that
a violation of a protection order is a felony. After he read it off the paper,
he said he didn't think that was correct. Pfeiffer’s attorney told him that it
was correct. Even I knew it was correct.
I left screwed
again and shaking my head in disbelief. I became even more horrified at the
system. The only thing I felt good about was that I never addressed Tice as
"Your Honor." There is NO honor in the system. It was clear that we
are just fodder for the system. We become nothing more that morsels to keep the
system of stupidity functioning.
