Didn’t work out as she’d hoped I guess ?

The trial heard the “statement of notice” the woman handed to the care worker asserted she was “a living being sovereign to this land” who “hereby renounce and reject my former engagement with the courts… and their kronies (sic)… and disregard all orders as null and void”.

Throughout the trial the woman regularly interrupted the proceedings, resulting in Judge Haesler finding her in contempt of court.

“[She] repeatedly interjected, directed personal insults to me and others, harassed witnesses (including her own [children]), refused my directions and orders and talked over me excessively,” Judge Haesler wrote in a scathing judgement.

    This is just really sad honestly.

    I mean it’s fun to make fun of sov cits but I suspect that this woman is more of a victim of the movement than a proponent.

    She likely has a range of substance abuse and mental health problems, gets her kid taken away, and then someone tells her all about how the govt doesn’t have the authority to do that.

    The judge implied the same when he said that her ideology is a panacea to solve the loss of her child.

    She might not be a very nice person, but I think she’s worthy of compassion.
