A FORMER COP CONVICTED OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS KEEPING DAUGHTER FROM EX But JUDGE REFUSES TO ENFORCE THE LAW.

By Chandrayee Roy Choudhury, Canada: Even though former police officer David Martin was on probation for domestic violence offences when he began withholding his daughter from his ex-wife, a Lethbridge judge has refused to enforce a court order.

It's now been more than a year since Lisa Martin has seen her 10-year-old.

"It's just an overwhelming feeling of loss," says Lisa. 
In fact, David was facing charges of stalking, possession of a knife, death threats and criminal harassment when the judge awarded him 50/50 custody of their kids even though an emergency protection order was in place.

Court of Queen's Bench Justice Dallas Miller — who has ruled that only he can preside over the couple's family court case — is the one person with the power to compel David to respect the court order.
