2016-03-28Audio Recording of the HearingParties:Patrick Fox, Desiree CapuanoMedia:Comments:
At this hearing, the court had reviewed all the evidence proving Desiree had lied about all of her allegations against Fox; Gabriel was supposed to be able to address the court. The court disregarded all of Desiree's lies and continued to act as though everything she said was the truth. The court granted Desiree complete discretion on all matters of visitation and contact between Gabriel and Fox, and refused to make any orders regarding visitation. The court also pretended that Fox had never requested for Gabriel to be able to address the court.
This was the initial petition, after Desiree had abducted Gabriel to Arizona, requesting the California Court order Desiree to return Gabriel to Fox's custody.
