Corrupt Family Courts in USA, Rachel Pickrel-Hawkins, Corey Micciolo, Predators in the Church

Rachel Pickrel-Hawkins is a mother embroiled in a complex legal battle involving serious allegations of abuse against her ex-husband, Michael Hawkins, a former Aurora police officer. Michael Hawkins has been charged with multiple counts of sexual assault on children, including accusations from their daughter and two adopted daughters. Despite these criminal charges, Michael Hawkins remains free on bail, while Rachel Pickrel-Hawkins has been sentenced to seven weekends in jail for defying court orders related to **reunification therapy** between Hawkins and their two sons.

Pickrel-Hawkins has resisted sending her sons to the court-ordered therapy, which aims to rebuild their relationship with their father. She argues that the therapy is abusive and harmful to the children, particularly given the allegations against M. Hawkins. Critics of reunification therapy, including Pickrel-Hawkins, claim it can retraumatize children, especially in cases involving abuse. In her case, she has accused the therapist involved of psychological manipulation. As a result, she has been held in contempt of court for non-compliance with the therapy order.

The case has drawn attention to broader issues within the family court system, including how abuse allegations are handled in custody disputes and the use of controversial reunification practices. Many family court reform advocates have rallied behind Pickrel-Hawkins, seeing her case as indicative of systemic failures in protecting children from abusive parents.

This begs the question, do family court therapists have too much power and authority?

The criminal charges against Hawkins include six felony counts of sexual assault of a child, yet he has been allowed to remain free while Pickrel-Hawkins faces incarceration for trying to protect her children.
