Dear Mr. Robinson and Mr. Hoffman: Re 96D217

I received Mr. Robinson' s letter of 18 October 200IThank you very much. If I understand

correctly from the third paragraph of the letter, Ms. Dombrowski may not at this point pursue a

change of custody, but is asking that the requirement for supervised visitation be lifted. 1willaddress those issues, but first, I would like to discuss the subject of the website. This website was

established for Ms. Dombrowski. It is my impression that the site has been a dismal failure in

attracting a mass audience. It has primarily been an electronic podium from which Ms.

Dombrowk,; ""d her mother, Betty Stumpf c><coriateJudge Anderson and Attorney General

Stovall. It has also attracted a group of people who have left messages on the site's bulletin board.

These messages have become progressively more ominous and I would offer a couple of examples

below:

An email fromaDennisBeam([email protected]) dated October 17th, 2001 states:

"Claudine, I have been following your plight and your courage and endless energy to save your

daughter is to be commended ..Ijust want to let you know that a real father who cares about hischildren would NEVER do what this monstcr is doing to you. There are a lot of people here in

Topeka ready and willing to serve Justice to this thing that calls himself"Dad" what an idiot!' I

hope he is watching his back ..Iknow I would if I were him (scum). There are a lot of real men

very angry with scum dad, all over the abuse and violence he has and continues to do. Ilave peace

of mind. Claudine, his Justice will come, in one way or another." Mr. Beam was apparently

moved to send this message after hearing Ms. Dombrowski speak at the March Against Violence

program last Wednesday.

..

Another email from an Amantia DuBois on 17 September 2001 suggests that "someone needs to

fly an airplane into that courthouse."(referring to the Shawnee County Courthouse.)

These comments appear to be made by people who know next to nothing about the case. I fail to

see how the presence of this website is helping anyone. Ifanything, it seems to be unnecessarily

inflaming passions. I would ask that Mr. Robinson use his persuasive powers and suggest to Ms.Dombrowski and her followers that this website be shut down. I am well aware that none of us can

force that to happen. Nevertheless, the website seems to be creating an increasingly ugly

atmosphere.

I further have no idea whether domestic violence occurred between the parties last December.

Since no criminal charges have been forthcoming and the parties are in extreme disagreement as to

whether these alleged events happened, this is, in my mind, a dead issue. To the best of my

knowledge, there has not been a scintilla of evidence which would suggest that Rikki has been

physically abused by anyone. As my letter of 30 August 2001 indicates, Rikki appears to be doing

fine. I recently (10/29/01) had reason to speak with Ms. Araiza, Rikki's school teacher, who -

reported to me that Rikki is "doing fine."~

I cannot agree to a change of custody. I will agree to unsupervised guideline visitation under the

following conditions.

/1 . Ms. Dombrowski will submit to a psychiatric/psychological evaluation to be completed by a

~

competent professional of the Court's choosing. I would like some clarification to Ms.

" ~. Dombrowksi' s statement about dying which I referenced in my letter to you of 30 August 200 I.

'J Again, I am compelled to ask whether this statement was made for her reader's consumption only

and hence~r d~~ ~ect ~whether she really meant it.

t : \ \~ . Ms. Dombrowski agrees that never again will she summon the electronic or print media to

i   0 visitation exchanges.

0 ' 1 . . - - 3. Ms: Dombrowksi agrees that never again will she take it upon herself to unilaterally modify a

parentmg tIme order of the court and that any further modifications will only be by agreement or

A~ by order of the Court.

{} \ \ tJ~4. Ms. Dombrowski agrees that under no conditions will she ever remove Rikki from the State of 

\~ ~ Kansas without prior court approval.\J '

,ti \  5. The presence and the behavior of Ms. Betty Stumpf has been an aggravating feature in this case.

)1 ~ V I am now convinced that Ms. Stumpf deliberately lied to me in December about Ms. Dombrowskit 0 and Rikki's whereabou~ She has customarily referred to the Court in the most contemptuous of 

terms. Her presence in is case has been destructive and counter productive and I would ask the

,/ Court to enter an order fi rbidding any contact between Rikki and her maternal grandmother.
