Episode Description
Welcome to The Stand with Meg. In this powerful episode, we expose the shocking reality of the Kansas family court system through the harrowing custody battle between Petitioner Melissa S. Buescher and Respondent Michael B. Buescher. Melissa breaks down her compelling testimony before the Kansas Judiciary Committee on Child Support and Child Custody Oversight, detailing what she describes as a complete collapse of systemic oversight.
We trace her case's troubling transfer from a Pottawatomie County IV-D child-support jurisdiction to a non-IV-D Trustees case in the District Court of Shawnee County, Kansas, Third Judicial District. Listeners will hear exactly how Melissa proves these systemic failures, backed by evidence of unrecorded counsel-only phone conferences, missing court transcripts, and denied due process under the 14th Amendment.
This deep-dive examines the documented roles of all the key actors involved in the litigation. We discuss the controversial ex parte filings and alleged ethical violations by opposing counsel Sarah Snyder, the bypassed authority of Court-Appointed Case Manager Julia Butler, the struggles with Petitioner's counsel Rebekah Phelps-Davis and Allison Hibler, and the refusal of the Guardian ad Litem to accept crucial evidence. From filing a Motion to Set Aside or Vacate under K.S.A. 60-260(b) to calling out "fraud upon the court," Melissa details her relentless fight for constitutional rights, immutable audit trails, and judicial accountability in Kansas.
