;?{~ "'Y~'" """- \)tJfS-~"issue of the coffin in Mr. Richardson's living room. ~ .,.~

Another issue has arisen concerning a letter which the Court received from a Ms. Quail who isRikki's kindergarten teacher in Tecumseh North Elementary. Ms. Quall was the author of a letter

which I believe is in the court file which indicates that Rikki had not eaten lunch prior to coming

to school. Ms. Quall verified that she was indeed the author of this letter and that she had written..,J/l. it at MS.. Dombrowski's solicitation. Ms. Quall. also informed me that there was another piece to~ this issue which was not raised in the letter and that there was a follow up question to Rikki by

school staff: that is, if you have not eaten lunch: are you hungry? The child reSponde

woman identifying herself as Claudine Dombrowski. Sheriff Barta advised me that Claudine

complained to him at length about your rulings, both in the change of custody hearing and in the

last hearing. She complained to him of being forced to move from Pawnee Rock and of being

forced to lose her job. She complained at length about previous domestic violence between

herself and Mr. Richardson and finally she allegedly informed Sheriff Barta that Mr. Richardsonwas involved drug dealing and use Sheriff Barta claimed to have checked with his narcotics staff

doing fine. I have personally seen the child in her father's home and she looks fine and seems toact normally I have seen her on videotapes with her mother during her mother's parenting time

and she seems to be fine; yet it is as if you had never made a ruling. Ms. Dombrowski and her

what was beginninito happen at Tecumseh North School until Ms Quail diplomaticany ~~'-JL ~

suggested that she did not need to be "filled in". Ms. Stumpf s references to the casket are, in my

opinion. ludicrous. A quick glance at Ms. Stumpf's letter will also show you that numerous

quotes appear to have been solicited from this child. Considering that Ms. Stumpf resides in

Texas one cannot help but wonder from whence Wese qugles came. I have some concern that Ms.

Stumpf's letter has tri8gered a needless open case with SRS Protective Services. Mr. Richardson

haSTnformed me that he already has reg:iY.eda ph~ call from a Ms.zeysliigar SRS and will be

having a meeting with her. I have left messages with this person and shehaSiiofcaIIed back. . .Perhaps most disturbing is the discovery of what may be contraband which may have been planted

on Mr Richardson's vehicle and a subSClWentphone to Sheriff Barta alleging that Mr. Richardsonis involved in drug use and trafficking. I >- ~ \ .' -" " '\> ~ ~ ( ; P'C)C!< ~".
