Custody Evaluator's Report
This is the document from my parents' divorce, that my dad apparently doesn't want you to see, even though it's the document that gave my dad custody of us. It's the document that shows WHY my mom was found to have "coached" us. I had not seen this document, nor had I heard of this document or the revelations about my dad, until this past week when I discovered it. Reading it makes me feel like I'm going to be sick.
The above screen shot from the report states: "Brian's infidelity and questions regarding any risk he might pose to his three daughters were major concerns of Michelle. These concerns led to a brief attempt at marriage counseling through LDS Social Services, individual and conjoint therapy with psychologist Dr. Sheffield from March 2004 through July 17, 2004, and extended individual and conjoint therapy with Dr. Hyde. Dr. Hyde, who was providing couples counseling referred Brian to Dr. C.Y. Roby for a phsychosexual assessment and eventually referral [sic] to Dr. Roby for treatment of his inappropriate sexual behavior. Brian entered into sex offender treatment with Dr. Roby and a therapist by the name of Cox. Dr. Ririe, Dr. Jensen, and this evaluator questioned the appropriateness of this treatment, which was designed to treat sex offenders though Brian voluntarily participated in this treatment for approximately 18 months." (emphasis added)
Dr. Blakelock also stated the following:
"In taking his second polygraph, Brian admits to a history of sexual contact with a child during his adolescence for which he was neither investigated nor charged with a crime."
"Brian also admits that at the age of 23 he exposed himself to two young girls as he exited a shower, and that 'years later' he masturbated to thoughts of the older girl (11 or 12 at the time of the incident) by placing her in the position of the younger girl (6 or 7 at the time of the incident)."
Despite all this, Dr. Blakelock favored my dad even though the ethical guidelines he quoted clearly indicate that he shouldn't have! Instead, Dr. Blakelock excused my father's behavior and justified his decision to send three innocent young girls to live in my father's house full-time, with unsupervised visits.
Blakelock stated his "opinion is that Brian poses little or no threat to sexually assault his daughters" because of:
a) the significant length of the time since Brian's sexual contact with a child;
b) Brian's demonstrated control over any deviant arousal he may have experienced;
c) the fact that other responsible adults have been informed of his sexual history; and
d) that his daughters are of such an age where they are fully capable of reporting any inappropriate sexual behaviors on the part of Brian should they occur.
Wow, that one was hard for me to read. I am sure it was difficult for you to post.
ReplyDeleteThis is what pedophiles do. When caught. They quickly admit to seemingly minor infractions in order to impress officials overseeing the case. Pedophiles are master people manipulators. They know how to study people, they know what people want. They do not experience emotions like the rest of us. They easily fake emotions and show the person exactly what they want to see. A plastic fake rose does not have any wilting, splitting petals or bugs. By comparison a manipulator pretending to look perfect can produce a much more flawless presentation then everyday normal people. A study of pedophiles shows that they are opportunist. The number one indicator of weather or not a pedophile will abuse a child is weather or not they have an opportunity or can make an opportunity. Pedophiles never come forward with all the truth or all their offenses. They only admit to "minor" offenses when it has the potential to benefit them. Anyone who hears a pedophiles "minor" confessions should ask themselves what is motivating the pedophile to confess at this time. There is always a motivator, they only confess to "minor" infractions when they feel it will help them. Exposing himself to girls when he was 23 is not control over deviant arousal. It was not minor. It is actionable. This incident should have been investigated and actions taken. This is official documentation of pedophile attraction and pedophile actions. Dr. Blakelock is enabling an abuser by recommending children be placed in his care. He should have enough expertise to know that responsible adults having knowledge and age of the potential victim are both not strong enough protections against abuse. Pedophiles are opportunists. The only protection against pedophiles acting on sexual urges is to eliminate opportunities. When Dr. Blakelock recommended placing children in the care of a known pedophile he enabled that pedophiles abuses. The Dr. is not 100% sure there will not be inappropriate sexual behaviors on Brian's part. The only security he offers to overcome this lack of 100% surety is the age of the daughters. This is reckless of him. Dr. Blakelock has no excuse for this recklessness. His expertise alone means he knows that the age of the daughters does not mean they are "fully capable of reporting any inappropriate sexual behaviors on the part of" their father. There is no other pedophile who has more potential to control and repress their victims then the pedophile father.
Brittany. Sorry I keep writing such long reply's.
You are exactly right. The actions of these people to protect and help a pedophile are outrageous! I am so upset after reading this document. How does this happen?!
DeleteDr. Blakelock should be reported for malpractice. He's clearly a quack. On what planet does 1+1=5???
ReplyDeleteKids happy and healthy at moms
Kids not happy or secure feeling at dads
Dad has history of abuse, sexual fixation on children and exhibits predator tendencies
Dad is awarded custody.
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?
Your mom was clearly concerned that you girls being his target age he would do something inappropriate and she did everything she could to protect you.
Dr. Moron seems to think that is a FAULT.
I can't with these people. I hope there is a special place in hell for the Dr. AND your father.
I have a friend who is a cop and he said many times when child kidnappings occur the predator chooses the youngest child in the group. And here is your father MASTURBATING to thoughts of a SIX YEAR OLD.
Unbelievable.
Everyone who supports him is going to hell.
Mia is 10% correct. Brian was preparing his girls for abuse by watching their reactions to the lurid telling of his sexual experiences to his girls. Brittany has provided us with many of those stories, and I suspect there are more...Dr. Blakelock certainly at least needs to be exposed, and possibly sued! He was negligent in his capacity as a professional. This needs to be shown to the Kansas DCFS, and Abby should be removed from his home...I hope Angie reads this, and voluntarily removes herself from Brian.., she will soon not be an innocent any longer, and could be held as negligent and culpable.
ReplyDeleteI hope you mean Mia is 100% correct. (And I sure wish we were not correct about Brian Wolferts in this instance. I'm so worried for the woman and toddler still living with him at home.)
Deletesorry, yes, I mean' 100% correct Mia...I am so angry with this court system, and --Brians --head in the sand family, and wife--, I can hardly see straight!...
Deleteyes, I did mean Mia is 100% correct...I am so disgusted with Brian, his family, and insane followers...I can't see straight!
DeleteThat level of anger and upset makes sense! Brian's actions are the worst possible!
DeleteNow that you share this I keep thinking about the weird stories your dad Brian Wolferts would tell you about child porn involving himself and your little sister in his stories. Also the weird issue going on with your little sister and her hip problem. Knowing this report on the custody evaluation makes me certain this guy is about as sick as they come and needs some serious help but yet he gets custody?? I don't understand why he didn't finish his court ordered therapy with Dr. C.Y. Roby. Its clear your mom was fighting for the save of you girls. How does that just happen? How did Brian get out of that court ordered therapy and yet your mom was not in compliance for not paying some court fees quick enough and therefore loses custody??? OMG what is happening here?
ReplyDeleteThe comments above are so spot-on. I started out feeling sympathetic towards your family, then concerned, and now I'm utterly horrified. Documents re: Michelle mentions Brian "repeatedly" asking Michelle if the girls had seen him in the shower. Now we see that Brian has a history of being seen in the shower. So many red flags. I don't know your mom, Brittany, but I do know that she was twice abused. Once by her former husband, and once by the court.
ReplyDeleteblakelock is doing exactly what he is paid to do, and what will get him repeat business. he is a contractor of the court. he gets paid by the court and if he wants to work again in utah county he better appease the court and the attorney that recommended him. he does not get paid for being fair or right, in utah county. he gets paid for producing a report that appeals to those writing his checks, which he did.
ReplyDeleteThese officials would have lost the last six years of fees (and counting) had they just done the right thing and ordered supervised visitation back when Michelle came forward with evidence that her daughters were at risk in 2008. It's a total racket, and they all work together in an incestuous program where children are the pawns in a high-stakes game of bilking people in crisis. (Or, worse, a high-stakes game of predatory targeting of children).
Deleteblakelock has the same role as kaydeen jensen, who also appears in this case. she is the unqualified and untrained operator of ACAFS, who also appears in this case.
ReplyDeleteACAFS and kaydeen do NOT work for the children. they work for the court. they get paid by the court. they do not respond to requests or emails or information from the children in these cases. they meet with the children in a very controlled environment and siphon only information that will appeal to their paying customer. if one party in the case cannot afford to pay, they testify against that party in contempt orders, which is exactly what happened in the wolferts case. this selection from brittany may be offensive to you, but it shouldnt be. it is not unique. it is not new. it is not even clever on the part of the court or the attorneys or blakelock or acafs or kaydeen. it is standard. this is how commissioners patton and faulkner operate, and once this is put in motion by faulkner and patton, claudia laycock and all the other judges just move it along without any resistence and without any hard questions. get used to it, brittany. it is the system. it is rubberstamped and the court will only find you in contempt for exposing their contracting shenanigans.
it is ironic that the girls can be trusted to prevent or report molestation by their father, but they cannot be trusted to report that they were NOT coached by their mother.
ReplyDeletethe girls can be trusted to report deviant sexual activity by their father, but they cannot be trusted to report abuse by their father (which is happening now.)
the girls are old enough to be trusted to report abuse by their father, but the court is restricting any and all access to all adults and institutions to which they could and should report abuse, including their MOTHER.
blakelock should just kill himself and make the world a better place. we know the courts wont do anything to prevent his sort of logic from infiltrating the system, maybe he can take care of that and do the world a big favor.
It is SOOOOOO Ironic!! For sure!! Great Points!! The girls are happy and doing well with their mother. The Girls report concerning things to their mother. Their mother tries to get protection for them in their visits. The court system turns on a dime and now is against their mother. The mothers concern because her daughters reported are being used against her. And then Dr. Blakelock reports the father is a known pedophile but the girls will not be at risk because they know to report abuse...... wait... what?...... they did.... they reported abuse... and the court gave the abuser full custody... and.... that is somehow suppose to make sure abuse does not happen again? Really?
DeleteThose girls should have been shown that reporting made them feel more safe. That would have helped the girls quite a bit. That would have helped them be able to report more abuse if it did happen. That would have helped the girls heal and feel safe.
What Brian did to those girls is awful! What they are enduring now because of Brian, his attorney and the courts is awful too! There are never words to describe how awful these things really are.
For any Brian supporters reading I am sure Brittany does not wish any harm to come to Dr. Blakelock. I would bet a standard blog disclaimer of "comments on the blog do not represent the views of the owners of this blog" applies here.
I know you are needing more money to help pay with lawyer fees. What if you did a bake and garage sale, especially with how Utah's weather hasn't been too bad. Also, contact news station to do a news story perhaps. Also, twitter and facebook sharing these blog post. What about and online auction where people can donate things and you can sell them to the highest bidder. I want to see your sisters safe and win in court.
ReplyDeleteI recently saw an episode of Dr. PHIL ( I studied psychology and find some of the stories there interesting) where a young lds girl started being sexually abused by her father at a young age. He even used her to sell child porn eventually.
ReplyDeleteI'm telling you this because the sister never told her other sisters what was happening...until she noticed that her dad was grooming the other girls. Making cupcakes/brownies with them one on one...but grabbing them a little here and there, one time their dad exited the shower in a towel and lay down on top of one of his girls, laughing. The oldest sister realized he was going to start sexually abusing her younger sisters... so she finally told someone.
This is EXACTLY what I was afraid of and my gut says that he is abusing Abby or masterbating to her.
We are so poor right now or I'd donate. I want to help you though. Please tell us what we can do until we have funds to donate. Praying Abby is removed IMMEDIATELY. I hope Angie sees your post. She needs to know who she married. He has a long running record of LEWDNESS to children. Put him in prison so he cannot harm any more children. Those POOR children who he exposed himself to... probably scared for life.
At the age of 23?!!! Isn't that pretty soon after an LDS mission?! Wow. He didn't waste any time and are we sure he didn't rape this woman in Brazil? Hope someone investigates that. He is grooming Abby like he was grooming you girls. It's disgusting, but that's what he was doing! Sick man.
ReplyDeleteI am sure you won't post this since i does not fit with what you want said. It says these things happened as an adolescent and that some kids saw him getting out of the shower and he masturbated later. They never say he touched a child. He also voluntarily went to a sex offender treatment for 18 months. It sounds like he wanted to make damn sure he would not ever do anything inappropriate with his or any other girls. The fact you have this document seem as though the claims of parental alienation are correct.
ReplyDeleteYes, he did touch a child. Read it again. And for you to say that sexualizing a child is CURABLE shows how uninformed you are. Sex offenders are not curable. Michelle had no reason to "coach." She had full custody of the children. She had everything to lose by bringing this matter to the courts attention, not to mention when she did it she was flat broke. She did it to protect her children. To counter act this biased quackery of a report she agreed to take a polygraph showing she didn't coach the children. She passed 100%. Dad meanwhile can't even have his junk hooked up to a machine and shown pics of babies without getting aroused. Read all the reports on this sight.
DeleteKnow what you are talking about before you support a child molester.
I agree the above commenter is clearly biased and uneducated on the topic and minimizing or ignoring key information about this case specifically.
DeleteI am baffled... speechless. Someone read this and thought, "yup... I support him." Disgusting and so odd it's laughable.
DeleteI AGREE FULLY with Anon 12/20 11:56 AM above. It is so gross that anyone is still trying to justify the behavior of a guy who is obviously not your average flawed individual. Brian Wolferts poses a clear risk to children.
DeleteI'm guessing that Anon 12/19 9:43 must also have "a history of sexual contact with a child" and must also masturbate to thoughts of six-year-olds if he finds Brian Wolferts' behavior described in the Custody Evaluator's report to be LESS SERIOUS than warning one's daughters to be careful and vigilant while near a guy who IS attracted to 6 year olds. Who ARE you??
Anonymous 9:43 Parental Alienation is TOTALLY different them Parental protection. Brittany said she had not seen this until recently. So... no... this does not qualify as parental alienation.
DeleteI commented a second ago and I wanted to add... the story about the Utah dad I mentioned... the girls later found he had a drug problem as well. This was a church going man and his other daughters had NO idea until he started groping them after the oldest sister moved out. All siblings always felt something was off. All psychologists recognized it as grooming. He was highly controlling, manipulative, told them weird stories, ... they later found he was not only into child porn but also leaving home to have sex with children who had been trafficked! So he was always paranoid someone would find out and he was always paranoid about home security. Always paranoid someone would find out he was sexually abusing other peoples kids with lewdness and sexual acts.
ReplyDeleteI'm not saying your "dad" did those things... but I'm saying that the comments above are so accurate. Bone chilling... but he was grooming. THANK GOD your mom is smart and got you girls to safety. She is a hero.
A secure attachment is not formed out of alienation attempts. A secure attachment is formed out of having needs met consistently and appropriately by a care giver. There is a reason that children have anxiety around some parents. It should be sought out.
ReplyDeleteBrian not being charged and more importantly treated as an adolescent when he perpetrated on a younger child is very concerning and is he more likely to become an adult offender because of this lack of treatment. Why Dr Blakelock didn't note this makes me pause and wonder about him. Why doesn't he see what the research shows? Did he read the research? Does he even care or does he just care about what your father's attorney wants for his client?
The courts do not pay the custody evaluators. The courts do not pay for ACAFS. The parents do and usually one parent does. It seems interesting that so many people looked the other way.
I for one could care less what happens to Dr Blakelock or the father's attorney. We need a few less people harming children in our world. Both are likely narcissistic and don't really care what others think of them.
Or both are likely pedophiles. That would answer a lot of questionable behavior we've been watching.
DeleteJust realized... it describes TWO cases here. One says he ADMITTED TO A HISTORY OF SEXUAL CONTACT WITH A CHILD WHICH WAS NEVER INVESTIGATED. That child is STILL OUT THERE. Please report this to police immediately. Also... he admits to showing himself to young girls... did he ask them for a sexual favor? I don't believe it ended with him revealing himself to them. There's more to that story.
ReplyDeleteMore to the story can not possibly excuse what was stated!!!!!!! That can not be excused!!!! The official report says he revealed his naked self to two children and had sex with a child because he has sexual urges towards children. Are you trying to say that the report is wrong? Those things did not happen? Because quite frankly there is no amount of outside other information that can make those ok!! It is sarcastic of you to say that they should report the adolescent incident to the police. There is not enough information given in this report to have it reported (on purpose I am sure). I am sorry that you live in a mental framework where you can excuse sexually inappropriate contact with children so readily. Clearly any facts or information on this site are lost to you. You can easily explain away this awful stuff.
DeleteMia...Huh??? No... I'm saying I don't believe he just mozied out of the shower and randomly decided to reveal himself to two young girls. I'm one of the girls biggest supporters. You're completely attacking the wrong oerson here as you misread my post. I believe there's more to the story as in... he may have asked them for a sexual favor. More abuse there. Don't be so quick to attack... you're discouraging supporters!!
DeleteWhoa, whoa, whoa, MIa. I did not get that AT ALL from the above comment. To me it sounds like Anon 11:49 PM is firmly in the corner of Syd, Dani and Brittany and is wishing the child victim of years ago would come forward to report the abuse to the police. It also sounds like Anon wonders if the "more to the story" could be additional subsequent contact beyond the lewd exposure. Again, I could be wrong, but I don't think Anon's comment in any way excuses Brian or dismisses the seriousness of the document. Please correct me if I've misinterpreted your intent, Anon. And forgive me if I've overstepped, Mia. Your insights on this blog show a remarkable level of wisdom.
DeleteUm... feeling silly... I just came in and read my comment and the above comment to my husband (without seeing these below comments). And he showed me how I was reading the words in the first comment wrong, I misunderstood the first comment. Then after we looked at that I see these comments below stating just that. I am sorry I misread that comment and miss commented. Thank you for your clarification!
DeleteI am so glad these sisters have both of you as supporters!! Thank goodness!! I know that at least one of my previous comments has not been posted on the blog. If at any point you feel that any of my comments are not in harmony with the blog, or have misunderstood the specifics, please feel free to not post them. The last thing I would want to do is discourage supporters.
DeleteIt is strange I had to re-read that first comment three times, with my husband pointing out each word before I saw that I was literally reading the words and punctuation wrong. I am not sure why I slipped up like that on that comment. I feel bad if I caused any frustration for Brittany or any of her supporters.
When I read the first comment again I find it is a great comment with great points!
I am glad you have found value in my other comments on this blog, thank you.
Mia. Glad you see what I meant. I was just saying that I worry that victim may have been further abused by Brian. As you shared previously... he is probably sharing the most minor details of the sexual abuse on children. Also... the child he victimized in his adolescence is still out there... probably scarred for life.
DeleteYes, your points were quite the opposite of what I read at first. And you had some really good and important points!
DeleteReally it is very sad.... What you said.. There is more to the story... It is so sad to think/ realize that. I pray Brian can be exposed so his victims can find some peace.
DeleteI see on the news every day, another pervert arrested for alleged sexual misconduct. How is he able to weasel his way around the system?! We've been spreading word, based on court documents, that there's a pedifile on the loose.
DeleteI have read several post and almost all of the blogs and other stories. And I can't understand why these girls aren't with their mother and why she is in jail and the father is not. What is wrong with the world? Anyone with a brain can see who needs to be where. I'm just .... I just can't believe any of this. Are the people in charge that blind and stupid that they can't see the father is the problem? I barely made it out of high school and I know what the problem is.
DeleteMy husband read the first paragraph and said, "so he's a sexual predator. " I said ...keep reading...
ReplyDeletehe read the second paragraph and his jaw was on the floor. He said that man who did this paperwork HAD to have been bribed. My first impression too. Hope your step mum is safe. Her girl, too..... :(
I figure the custody evaluator was one of three things:
Delete1. Bribed
2. Motivated by monetary gain to be had from bitter, contemptuous, ongoing legal battles that happen for years and years when custody is given to a known abuser who is divorced by a caring, protective parent who is willing to protect her children being sent to those known abusers
3. A possible child predator who works in plain sight to protect other predators.
Google the evaluator and this is listed as the last, possibly more recent thing he has done, making me think that #3 is the correct answer.
DeletePsychologist, Utah State Prison, Sex Offender Treatment Program.
Great Idea! Googeling Dr. Blakelock I just looked over his information too. I agree with you! I think #3. The man gives me the creeps. He specializes in a "recovery" program for pedophiles.
DeleteThis is my opinion of "recovery" programs. Less then half of all sexual abuse ever gets reported to the police (less then 50%). Of the cases that are reported to the police less then half of them are ever investigated (less then %25). Of the cases that are investigated less then half of them ever are recommended to go to trial (less then %13). Of the cases that go to trial less then half of them ever get convicted (less then %6)....
Then Sexual Predator Recovery programs report this about recidivism. "The repeat conviction rate for child molesters is 13%, according to the Center For Sex Offender Management (CSOM). This suggests punishment has a significant deterrent effect on the convicted pedophile." Source http://offenderstatistics.blogspot.com/
If pedophiles that have undergone Sexual Abuse Recovery Programs have repeat convictions of 13% as reported then they are in fact doing worse then the general populace!
Truth is statistics on Sexual Abuse all have significant problems. " Statistics on rates of child abuse and neglect are controversial. All statistics on the incidence and prevalence of child abuse and neglect are disputed by some experts. (Incidence refers to the number of new cases each year, and prevalence to the percentage of people in a population who have had such experiences.)" Source http://www.jimhopper.com/abstats/
It is my strong opinion based on my research and experiences that society does not benefit from Sexual Abuse Recovery Programs for Pedophiles.
Um.. clearly I am not a lawyer... because sometimes I mix my words up.. Substitute "Sex Offender Recovery" every place I put "Sexual Abuse Recovery".
