In 2018, Thomas Perez contacted the police in Fontana, California, worried about his missing father. Instead of receiving help, he endured 17 hours of interrogation, where officers falsely claimed his father was dead and pressured him into confessing to a murder he didn’t commit. Police even threatened to euthanize his dog, adding emotional distress to the ordeal.
After confessing under immense psychological pressure, Perez was placed on a psychiatric hold—only to later discover that his father was alive and traveling through LAX. This tragic story, which led to a $900,000 settlement, underscores the dangers of coercive police tactics and the importance of reforming interrogation practices.

In this clip from The See You In Court Podcast, family law expert Gillian Onan discusses why the vast majority of divorce cases never go to a final trial. While some people believe they want their "day in court" when saying goodbye to a marriage, the reality is that 95-96% of divorce cases settle before reaching a trial. Many of these cases are resolved through settlement negotiations or temporary hearings.
Considerations:
Most divorces settle before trial: The vast majority of divorce cases are resolved outside of court through settlements or hearings.The reality of divorce litigation: Couples may have multiple temporary hearings before a settlement is reached, but very few cases go all the way to a final trial.Courtroom battles are rare: Though some may desire their "day in court," the emotional and financial strain of a trial often leads to settlements beforehand.🎧 Tune in to hear more and 👉 Listen to the full episode for more in-depth insights about divorce and family law from Robert Wellon and Gillian Onan: https://seeyouincourt.podbean.com/e/divorce-and-family-law-gillian-onan-and-robert-wellon/
