Judge Valenzuela ordered Alec (7) and Lydia (6) to their executions. Less than two weeks after Father admitted to police he was having suicidal and filicidal ideations, Judge Valenzuela orders 50/50 unsupervised parenting time, despite serious safety concerns. In May 2024, Father shot both children in the head and turned the gun on himself. Legal Knowledge: He’s great at maximizing parenting time at all costs. He has exceptional legal knowledge concerning that provision! Fairness & Impartiality: He failed to consider the fairness that Alec and Lydia deserved, or maybe it doesn’t matter as long as parental rights are upheld… fairness to children isn’t part of the equation. Judicial Temperament: Ambivalent to risk… bored with it, even. Announced to parties that he’d base their credibility on their ability to provide one word answers during a hearing where details and context were necessary. Communication: He communicated clearly that he is not familiar with or does not care about how domestic violence impacts children and that he had no intention of protecting these children. Timeliness: Very timely! In fact, after the temporary orders hearing over Father’s suicidal and filicidal ideation, domestic violence and mental health concerns, he issued his order for 50/50 unsupervised parenting time a joint legal in less than 48 hours! Quick!
