FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE

Religious Fraud, Mental Illness, and the Collapse of Law & Order

A true crime psychological thriller!

Victims of crime often feel very alone, helpless, and hopeless. Fighting for Justice will resonate with anyone who has experienced long term injustice from both the perpetrator and “the system” that enables and empowers criminals.

Author Paulette J. Buchanan takes the reader through her lifetime of abuse at the hands of her four older brothers. She describes their continuation of abuse and criminal activities into their adult years, including their weaponization of the court system to file pro se (without an attorney) meritless, harassing lawsuits against her, her husband, and against others. Buchanan details the arduous fight in which she and her husband have been forced to engage in order to finally secure long overdue judgments and injunctions to stop these pro se-filed lawsuits.

Religious Fraud, Mental Illness, and the Collapse of Law & Order

A courageous undertaking, fraught with emotional risk. Buchanan reveals the undermining, demeaning, and objectification of women and children in her family and other families enslaved by cultic religious frauds. On center stage is the broken U.S. Judicial system.

The worst of Buchanan’s brothers has also weaponized the Internet and social media to engage in decades of incessant, obsessive defamation and cyber crimes against her, her husband, and dozens of other private and public individuals. This same brother operates a religious cult, scams the public, and incites his cult followers to join him in his stalking and harassment campaign against Buchanan, her husband, and other people whom he deems his “enemies.”  Buchanan highlights the failure of “Big Tech” social media companies to enforce their own rules of conduct and Terms of Service Agreements against bad actors, such as Buchanan’s cult-leader brother, thereby endangering adults and children.

Fighting for Justice describes how multiple agencies in our government system enable criminals to operate free of consequences, resulting in countless victims’ lives being significantly damaged and even destroyed. A virtually non-existent mental health system, the result of “progressive” ideology and policies, further endangers those with severe mental health problems, their family members, and the general public.  Fighting for Justice explains the historical origins and the forces at work that have caused the collapse of law and order, and offers viable solutions to combat the failures of our government, our courts, and of Big Tech, failures that have resulted in a corrupt system that empowers criminals to do such extensive, oftentimes permanent, harm to people. As a result of the crimes and injustices that Buchanan and her husband have experienced, they helped gain support for a state law that was enacted that protects people against those who file harassing, meritless lawsuits. The Buchanans continue to work with their legislators to create better laws that protect individuals and society.

Fighting for Justice is no mere “tell all” book. Fighting for Justice informs the general public and policy makers about the scope of the injustice emanating from our state and federal government agencies that affects everyone to one degree or another. Fighting for Justice seeks to encourage and empower crime victims to refuse to be silenced, to stand united, and to demand justice.
