Families Destroyed by Hurricane Katrina

This petition is to make people know how our courts have been and continue to be bought and sold by the wealthy when our judges and shady court practices side immediately with who has the most money without even doing background checks on them. I and many parents like me have been called a "flight risk" because I evacuated from Hurricane Katrina, a dangerous Category 5 hurricane. We had our children immediately stripped from us and given to the other parent who did NOT have even primary custody of the child(ren). These court cases were rushed through during times when the city was not fully up running and there was still martial law and price-gouging on rentals so people could not afford to come back and live. These victimized parents have ZERO rights to the children they once raised and cared for lovingly everyday. I want to push these crooks to overturn all these oportunistic judgements and let children be with their parents. New Orleans courts need to be investigated and held accountable for their actions regarding the evacuation loophole. Many children were taken away to live in other states by their parent who abused this system but evacuation is a "flight risk"? I think not.
