[quote=Anonymous]OP, this has sort of sidetracked.  I am so sorry for your situation.  I used to work for Legal Aid.  How old is the child?  that does make a difference in how much input the child gets.

I would be working with a therapist and attorney with lots of experience dealing with this kind of hard case.  I would not permit anything but supervised conduct if any at all, at least at this point.  I would also try to get all the children on supervised contact only.

As for the PP above -- I have seen it all when it comes to prosecuting vigilantes.  A few have gone to prison but a woman on my street planned and killed her husband, who was long-term abusive.  She buried his body in the woods with the help of her sister.  She got convicted....of desecration of remains, and got no jail time.  Everyone agreed with it, too, even though the facts did not really support a self-defense claim as you'd traditionally think of it.  I have seen other cases too where the result was really not what you'd expect based on the law.  To me it is one of the positive attributes of the jury system.  but you sure as hell can't count on that kind of cosmic justice working out for you.[/quote]
