Diane Van Ness
Late-night extortion, holding children hostage for money

This is the most important email feed I have ever subscribed to! I've waited a long time to hear from other people, who are now coming forward.

Diane Van Ness engages in severe extortion tactics. She literally holds children for ransom as she awaits large payments to herself which the parents, often innocent and not abusive, cannot afford. And so, for years, these children and parents are never reunited, to the children's detriment and the parent's despair. She then points the finger at the parent's despair and says, "You see, that parent is incompetent!" But she never divulges the source of the despair, the threats, the money, the late-night threats, the letters...

We parents have all records of her countless letters and emails that give detailed extortion demands, in writing. We do not know what would drive an attorney, who should know better, to put something like this in writing. But she did, and we have it. Our attorneys have it. And our attorneys are some of the most prominent in Miami.

The only ones who don't have the evidence are the judges. This is because, as the other writers here have stated, she files everything as non-evidentiary and blocks any and all due process toward any evidentiary hearing one might attempt.

We also have all the bank records.

While we do not have any proof of her physically pinning us toward the wall, outside the courtroom, demanding money or she will report what we "might regret, " we do have thousands of pages of concrete, indisputable evidence.

While I do not see any record of the GAL award she claims to have won in her rebuttal on this site, I do know that any person that nominated her from her circle of friends at UM where she works, and from her circle of judge friends, never saw any of this extortion evidence.

It is our hope that now that people are brave enough to come forward, the evidence will speak for itself.

If anyone else has subscribed to this email feed, please feel comfortable to come forward. Your concerns will be taken seriously by not only us but the legal professionals who have experienced her bizarre wrath first-hand.

You are now in good hands. We look forward to hearing from you.
