Drug addict attempts murder, still gets child custody

I am an advocate of joint child custody, but there are some circumstances that make it impossible. Such as when one parent hire a hit man to murder the other parent.

So who gets custody in that case? The drug-addict mom who hired the hit man, of course! And the dad is left begging for supervised visitation.

Fox TV Connecticut reports:
Bloomfield mother, Tiffany Khalily Stevens, was arrested in 2012 for hiring a hit man to murder her ex-husband and admits to a history of drug use.

So how did this mother, awaiting trial for attempted murder, retain temporary custody of the couple’s daughter?

The following are excerpts from a never-before-heard audio tape that police used as evidence in their case against Tiffany Khalily Stevens.

Alleged Hit Man: “…You go to the electric chair when you’re hired to kill someone.”

Tiffany: “Let me just tell you something…. (indaudible)’

Man: “When you’re f***ing hired to murder somebody, you get the f***ing electric chair.”

Tiffany: “Just do it.”

Man: “Ok”

Tiffany: “Please… when?”

Man: “Soon.”

Tiffany: “Tell me when.”

Man: “Soon.”

Police say, that tape reveals that Tiffany Khalily Stevens, hired a local maintenance man to kill her ex-husband Eric Stevens. Khalily-Stevens was arrested in July 2012 when the hit man gave the audio tape to Eric, who turned it over to Simsbury Police. ...

Nearly two years after Tiffany’s arrest, Eric still can’t see his daughter. He’s only permitted one short phone call each night. He showed Fox CT letters from a counselor who recommended that Eric should be allowed supervised visits.

He’s also filed several motions for visitation with the court and says none were granted by the Judge. He questions whether Attorney Bergamini is truly operating in the best interest of his daughter.

“You have a woman: known drug addict, multiple suspended drivers licenses, has custody of our child, while out on a million dollar bond, awaiting a trial for 25 years to life,” said Stevens.

In a New York state police report, a semi-conscious Tiffany Khalily-Stevens told officers she was using cocaine and oxy condon, after they found her in her car after going missing for hours.
This sounds like a joke, but it is not.

This paragraph in the article caught my eye:

On January 9, a state task force convened to study custody disputes. Approximately 80 parents spoke out at the state’s legislative office building, many arguing that GALs have a conflict of interest and charge exorbitant feeds[sic].

And this was the first hit:

I can attest that this is not a joke, I am the father in this story and I have not seen my little girl in years. I guess Connecticut has the best Judges that money can buy.
