Evelyn Nissirios Should NOT Fraudulently be Able to Portray this Public Record as ‘Harassment’

As She Has in Compromised Judge Michael Antoniewicz’s ‘Court’—for the One Thing that Terrorizes Family Courts is Exposure of TRUTH

COURT STATEMENT (UNDER OATH) BY BANDY LEE, MD, MDIV

I must say, in my twenty-five years of practice as a forensic psychiatrist, I have never experienced a court so resistant to receiving a reply brief [legal document], with stonewalling so extreme that I had to submit an order to show cause [emergency application], just to submit five pages debunking Plaintiff Evelyn Nissirios’ lies before this hearing. This happened before, when I tried to refer her for a mental competence evaluation, which you [Judge Michael Antoniewicz] obstructed, of course, because she was sure to fail — and her mental incompetence is precisely what is useful in family court.

Under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, and consistent with Caperton v. A.T. Massey Coal Co., a judge must recuse himself when a party’s right to a fair and impartial trial is endangered. Your continued refusal to adjudicate or even to acknowledge Evelyn Nissirios’ 600 documented lies and acts of perjury in official proceedings, satisfies this requirement and compels mandatory recusal…. The context of this unconscionable behavior is that Evelyn Nissirios’ perjury is useful to you, because you are trying to contrive a conviction through the pretense of a “trial”, using deliberate deception.

This is why, after my first motion to recuse, and my second motion to recuse, you are still on this case. I had to file a federal lawsuit for your constitutional violations, and you will give any reason not to remove yourself, even though … if the federal lawsuit involves abuse of power, retaliation, or due process violations, the judge must recuse.

But you are not. So you are setting yourself up for severe legal consequences for making a mockery of justice. There are people monitoring this trial who are aghast at your behavior and the extreme disregard for any semblance of constitutional law. We all know that you are a subordinate of Jane Gallina-Mecca, who has already actively intervened in your trial, documenting and proving for the world how compromised your court is. We know that you worked with Evelyn Nissirios extensively in the past, and any judge with any semblance of integrity and ethics under these circumstances would automatically recuse himself. This is not a fraternity where you extend professional courtesies to each other with a wink of the eye. You are not a judge in a court in China or Russia. The very foundation of American democracy, and the guiding principle on which the entire American judicial system is founded, is the Constitution of the United States. Do you even know what this means? Or are you so accustomed to colluding with your colleagues, that you consider yourself above the Law?

Here are the incontrovertible facts: the family court system across the continent has become the moral equivalent of a child slave trade. I am not the only one to say so; a report by the United Nations Human Rights Council, A/HRC/53/36, states essentially the same. Mothers and children have no rights at all, the Constitution is thrown out the window, and billions of dollars are being made by professionals who willfully exploit the existence of domestic violence, physical abuse of children, sexual abuse of children, and the sex trafficking and pornography industry of children.

Instead of honoring your sacred, sworn duty to protect families, you side with the violent perpetrators and predators of society. Let us be clear: Evelyn Nissirios is a predator and henchwoman for this slave trade. Loving mothers and sometimes fathers have had their children ripped away from them, viciously, brutally, and violently, using police SWAT teams, because this is how Evelyn Nissirios ensures that her victims are so traumatized and so incapacitated, that they will not be able to fight back against her theft of their children through violent kidnapping. The gangster methods she employs, or the psychological equivalent of brass knuckles and clubs that she brings to batter innocent parents, demonstrates the very degree of her guilt.

This is how this fraudulent “protective order” began, and why Evelyn Nissirios is using it to retaliate and to reverse victim and offender. Why have you not reacted to the fact that Evelyn Nissirios literally almost killed my sister four times since falsely weaponizing this frivolous case with the sole intent to assault her emotionally and psychologically, so much so that she had to be admitted into the intensive care unit, and now suffered irreparable injuries? Having co-conspired to murder her with her violent ex-husband as far back as in 2021, Evelyn Nissirios knows exactly how to maximally harm her. You keep saying her lawyer should speak for my sister, not I, but I am now her ADA [Americans with Disabilities Act] advocate as well as her attorney-in-fact, who has watched her go from superior health and superb performance to being debilitated and needing round-the-clock, 24-hour care since entering family court. My question for you is, how do you issue a protective order against my sister, who had not even contacted Evelyn Nissirios for a year, while you refuse to issue one against Evelyn Nissirios, who has repeatedly attempted to kill my sister, in order to eliminate her as a witness? Without Evelyn Nissirios, my sister’s children would still be the happy, healthy, and thriving prodigy children they were when they were with her, instead of ceasing to grow and going from perfect attendance to missing half of school, since being forcibly imprisoned with their violent abuser, who almost killed each of them by head injury. Child psychiatrists have called what Evelyn Nissirios did to these children, “soul murder,” but for you she is a victim? A victim of what? Truth telling of her actual deeds?

Silencing victims and their witnesses is what this “protective order” is really about. In Bergen County Family Court, profit replaces justice, cruelty becomes “law”, and the truth dies in darkness — and I can back up these claims with plenty of evidence. This is why they only punish loving parents who try to protect their children from abuse, rape, battery, and murder — exactly what the parents need to be doing for their children — and instead intentionally impose the worst kind of violence one can perpetrate against well-bonded parents and children: to separate them for a lifetime, as if they were dead to one another. Evelyn Nissirios stole my niece and nephew by conjuring false charges against my sister, and has not returned them for four years. Not only the mother but all the loving and caregiving adults in their lives cannot ever see or hear from them. This is why I began writing about Evelyn Nissirios, and then when dozens of litigants contacted me with similar stories, I began writing about them, too. The public needs to know that a supposed public servant is actually a predator and trafficker of children, who has destroyed dozens if not hundreds of lives by sending innocent, vulnerable children to their abusers, rapists, attempted murderers, and members of pedophilic sex rings. Many have thanked me for alerting them of her true nature and called what I have done, “a public service.”

She would deserve the electric chair in some states, but this court protects her, because she brings in good business. This is why the Office of Attorney Ethics would not investigate the dozens of complaints against her but instead appointed her as secretary, and this is why the Advisory Committee on Judicial Conduct would also not respond to similar charges against Jane Gallina-Mecca, the chief judge of family court, even after accusations of multiple murders have arisen against her.

Jane Gallina-Mecca has been on what can only be described as a mad rampage to retaliate against me for years, even disparaging me as a “political judge hunter” in front of unrelated observers. In truth, she is terrified of the exposure I could give her, being a New York Times bestselling author with a book coming out, starring in a documentary, and helping to refer her for impeachment, with more than 2500 petitioners and three dozen witnesses willing to testify against her in her pending impeachment trial.

Jane Gallina-Mecca has at least a decade-long history of trying to control the press, for which she was even shamed by the Washington Post. But not being able to succeed with me, she charged you, as her subordinate, with doing what she herself could not do — which is to silence me. She has stalked me, falsely arrested me, tried to report me as a “terrorist”, and sent secret orders to news agencies, demanding that they “unpublish” my interviews. When she was severely rebuked for violating the First Amendment, she astonishingly went back to her drawing board, reissued another order, and tried again!! When she repeatedly failed in her attempts by being rebuked instead, in what can only be described as an act of desperation, she enlisted you to issue for her a prior restraint on my protected speech, in the guise of a “protective order”! Even if you say you are unrelated to Jane Gallina-Mecca, which is hardly possible, you are dealing with Evelyn Nissirios, who works with her in just about every case now, so joined are they at the hip.

Tell me, how is writing truthful articles to hold a government-appointed individual accountable — articles that she must look up the Internet to find — “harassment” that requires a protective order? Any reasonable, well-informed person would know that you have been recruited to be an enforcer for a runaway court — and not to be an independent judge. By faithfully and obediently serving in this reprehensible role assigned to you by Jane Gallina-Mecca — you have made a mockery of American justice.

I find it uncanny that, just a few weeks after Jane Gallina-Mecca lost direct control following the close of my sister’s trial, that this “protective order” would be issued. The timing and outcome strongly support coordinated retaliation and obstruction. And Jane Gallina-Mecca’s interjection on April 15, 2025, to intervene in my attempts to get transcripts, now proves her involvement.

In summary, you have disqualified yourself not just by “casting an intolerable cloud of partiality over [your] judicial conduct” but through active collusion.

First, you took extraordinary measures to deprive Co-Defendant Patricia Lee and myself the opportunity to obtain counsel at the first hearing, forcing us into a trial on the first day, so that we could not easily dismiss or appeal this case.

Second, you faithfully followed Plaintiff Evelyn Nissirios’ script, no matter how absurd or frivolous, going so far as to parrot her counsel’s words, verbatim, numerous times.

Third, you refused to recuse yourself from the case despite a federal, 42 U.S.C. 1983 litigation, extensive past working relations with Evelyn Nissirios, and Jane Gallina-Mecca’s brazen intrusions coming to light.

Fourth and finally, you repeatedly rescripted events in Evelyn Nissirios’ favor, despite continually being corrected on the record: for example, you continued to insist that my former counsel agreed to take down my articles and that I did not contradict her during the “two opportunities” — two court hearings — I had, when the exact opposite happened: I contradicted my attorney at the soonest opportunity by writing a letter to the Court on the same day — since the clerk muted my microphone for the hearing. And when the Court did not respond, I submitted a follow-up declaration and a motion — then, at the next Court hearing, my former attorney did not contradict my declaration or my repeated statement that I did not authorize her to agree to take down my articles.

I will note that, when I corrected you about this at the April 4, 2025, hearing, the court resisted giving me the audio recording. When I finally obtained it, only the portion where I corrected you was missing. This was when, out of the blue, Jane Gallina-Mecca interjected and placed a protective order on the recording, in a case that is not under her jurisdiction and has no business with her, apparently to hide the tampering of evidence….

*I have been invited to give my testimony to the Arizona Joint Legislative Ad Hoc Committee on Family Court Orders tomorrow, June 16, 2025, and I hope to see many there! I will be doing so in both my expert as well as personal capacity. I will be calling national attention to the movement to impeach Judge Jane Gallina-Mecca, which now exceeds 2600 petitioners, to be submitted to the General Assembly this week! Help us to turn the tide by holding accountable one of the most notorious judges who exemplifies the unacceptable corruption and cruelty of the Family Courts, all around the country!
