"Client" sure seems like an odd word choice here.

Terrible story and a terrible AI slopsticle.

why do you think it's "AI slop"?

Em dash and bolding of the first few words of the paragraph are pretty decent telltale signs.

oh I thought you were gonna say commas — I don’t trust anyone who uses even a single comma, they’re definitely a russian bot.

If you have a child born of rape, there are a number of states where paternity laws allow the father to sue for sole custody (unlikely) or joint custody (more likely, because it keeps them in contact with their victim as they arrange handoffs and custody arrangements).

There are also a number of states that allow the woman to try to sever paternity rights in cases of rape, but several of them require the perpetrator to be convicted of raping the victim, and there are (a couple? a few?) where the perpetrator has to be convicted of rape in the specific instance that led to the child (difficult in ongoing abuse cases).

Most states defer to the patriarchy, which is terrified of men "losing" the right to see their kids over vindictive, false rape claims.

High chance that this is a ragebait fake story. Obviously AI written, no other mentions of this story elsewhere, the low quality cropped image from the judge's facebook page.

They link their sources at the end.

OSCN is not hard to use if you want to verify that the court records are there.

Getting larger news outlets to cover anything in OK is difficult. I’ve attempted to blow the whistle multiple times about systemic child abuse and been ignored.
