26: Brooke Tells Us: Part 1 - How She Beat Addiction and a Corrupt System to Win Her Kids Back
Update: 2025-12-14
Description
Brooke tells us how she beat addiction and a corrupt system to win her kids back. Her story starts in California, where doctor shopping spiraled into a pain-pill addiction, then heroin, then homelessness. Thirteen years sober, Brooke rebuilt her life in Missouri — but when a divorce and custody battle hit, the St. Louis family-court system made her feel like she was the problem.
She wasn’t.
As Brooke pulled back the curtain, she discovered what countless parents have been whispering for years: an ongoing RICO case, allegations of corruption inside the Missouri family courts, and GALs abusing their power. In this episode, she names names, breaks down the players, and explains how the system profits off vulnerable families.
Despite being targeted and dismissed, Brooke documented everything, fought every ruling, exposed the misconduct, and ultimately won her children back — proving the system could be beaten.
Today, she is an advocate, a court watcher, and a force working alongside high-profile cases to expose what’s really happening — and to protect parents who don’t know where to turn.
