In talking with many Alaskan voters, the Polar Digress has found that few have any idea about how their state judges are truly performing.
So Alaska, here's time to disseminate information. How have these Superior Court judges performed on the most important cases that come before them--child custody cases? Any children sent to abusive homes unsupervised? Any given over to the full custody of theirs or their protective parent's abuser? Time to get the word out.

I'm recalling the Gallegos case where Judge Tan awarded sole custody of two small children to the father and allowed him to move to Mexico. He shot the 5 year old & himself on Valentine's Day and her former M-I-Law then refused to turn over custody of the youngest child to the mother. What was not reported in the local media was that the mother was suffering from severe post-partum depression after the birth of the youngest child and the father was serial "dating" during that time and that there had been domestic violence during the marriage. Although both parents reportedly had experienced bouts of depression, the judge reportedly focused soley on the mother's depression and awarded custody to the father, essentially severing her contact with her 2 children under the age of 4 at the time.
