This was last Sunday’s front page story in the Tribune about two young boys murdered by their father on his visitation weekend down in McLean County (the largest county in IL…a new tidbit for me). It highlights some of the key pressure points you need to know in these cases.
I legitimately feel for the judge in the case. The reality is that Illinois custody/visitation law favors the involvement of both parents in the lives of children & the burden is placed on a parent attempting to restrict visitation to prove that the other parent is a threat. Not easy to do if you can’t get any independent experts involved. Most eye-opening was the 26 hour delay it took for an Amber Alert to be issued because the local police department didn’t believe that the childrens safety was at risk.
