Complaint Review: Toni D. Bernotas PhD - St. Louis Missouri

1.  Toni D. Bernotas has been found to be bias in other cases.  However, Ms. Bernotas has been employed as a forensic psychologist since 2006.  All her cases would have to be reheard if she was found negligent by her own superiors, in an open setting, causing St. Louis County, thousands, possibly millions in restitution and retrials.

2.  Her superior wrote a new evaluation of me.  Toni D. Bernotas' bogus, bias, malficient 124 page evaluation, was rewritten to a 22 page documentation.  I filed the new eval in my legal file; as that one was not part of the file.  I felt it important for future endeavors.  Note - My new eval - did not happen until after they realized they made a horrible mistake, and opposing party is in their words "psychotic."  There are St. Louis County professionals whom divulged everything that happened to my son, since being taken from my home, apologizing to me and my family, for their treatment of us; and Toni D. Bernotas' misdiagnosis of opposing party.  Her bias was noticed in other cases - my family was told - by Bernotas' fellow peer. 

3.  My eldest daughter, the one Ms. Bernotas called a compulsive liar, and raised by me, is now supervising visits between my son and I.

4.  My little boy, had been kicked out of the partental home, by the age of 11.  The GAL never figured out where he lived (according to her emails found in my legal file).  My son begged for a bed, during visitation.  He started 7th grade with not so much as a toothbrush for two months.  This information is written down, as stated by him to DFS officials, during supervised visits. My son was completely alienated from friends, sports, and for several years his father sat in on his counsel visits.  GAL knew all this, but failed to even so much as respond to anyone concerned for him. 

5.  Elizabeth Nelson Trotter, the cohort and solicitor of Dr. Toni D. Bernotas, opened an old case between me and a nephrologist.  Ms. Trotter's cohort and 4 person office, were instrumental in taking my second little child - and the third - ten years later.  That child was denied all love, punished for the evidence that "almost" destroyed her father's career.  Ms. Trotter and Toni D. Bernotas' ignored her cries to "not" put her little brother through the hell their office put her through by taking him away from the only people he knew to be stable in his life.  Both women treated her with contention and callous disregard.  She, after 5 years of this case, and the deliberate lies at the hands of Ms. Trotter and Dr. Toni D. Bernotas, my middle child has no respect for anything to do with law.  She is very angry.  I fear for her life.  These two women have caused dozens of sleepless nights, tears, arguments, my mother even severed both feet in a car accident.  She was coming home from a visit with my son - that never should have happened.  He should have been returned to us after Toni D. Bernotas's eval was found to be maliciously and willfully negligent and harmful to my family, and our future.

This whole group needs to be stopped.  In late October, I was in the presence of Claire McCaskill, the democractic rep for the State of Missouri.  In light of all the child sex trafficing allegations springing forth, Mrs. McCaskill stated she knows there is a problem in St. Louis County Family Court, but our case probably wasn't going to fix anything, but she would look at it.  I hold zero credence to that, as she is a politician. 

It is common practice, in St. Louis County, and I suspect the rest of the state, to force parents to sign their rights away to get rid of them/difficult cases.  Had Dr. Bernotas and Elizabeth Trotter stuck to the facts, my son would be attending STEM highschool next year.  However, instead, he lives in a dirty, filthy, hole, stuck babysitting from 6 p.m. to 3:30 a.m. My son babysits his half sibling, sired by father and strumpet during my pregnancy.  This biological daughter was kicked out of the home by her biological mother, at the age of 6, my son 11.  To this day, that woman will not speak or have anything to do with her biological daughter.  My son said stepmother hardly spoke to him the 4 years he was around her. 

I can't imagine what type of a mother would dispose of her 6 year old daughter, but not her teenage children.  All I can say, is my poor son.  What he must have seen since Toni Bernotas' bogus eval of his mother.  He has been denied any extra curricular activities, friends, and even gifts from me thrown away for the past 5 of his last years. 

He can go hours without speaking, and has trouble articulating his emotions, but Mrs. Elizabeth Nelson Trotter and Dr. Toni D. Bernotas knew what they were doing to him (me) when they did it.  He was only 8 years old when forensic psychologist Toni D. Bernotas removed him from our home for 2.5 hours.  He had trouble speaking to people we lived next door to for 5 years.  Toni Bernotas must have scared him to death.  She has a mean, course face and demeanor to match. 

There is much work to be done, now.  The GAL and opposing counsel begged me to drop the trial, because opposing party wasn't paying either of them.  My attorney quit in April, but opposing counsel was still moving - filing motions the day my counsel filed his egress, as was GAL.  I had to move forward.  I was flat broke, alone, and my mother disabled. I filed two motions in an attempt to get legal aid, but the judge refused to grant or deny either attempts.  At least, my son is able to spend the night with my eldest daughter.  It's so ironic, malicious, and purposeful Elizabeth Trotter would move to have the 1 child, I raised and never taken, supervise visits between me and the one she moved so viciously to remove from his warm, safe, and nurturing home.

Toni D. Bernotas, Elizabeth Nelson Trotter, and every one whom assist them in their perpetual crimes against children should be made an example of - as they did those mothers, fathers, and children before mine.  #timesup  Our case may not solve the problem, Mrs. McCaskill - but #times up!
