Breaking the Law
San Diego ➝ Vista Child Trafficking Network
URGENT UPDATE: 12/18/2025
International Child Removal Alert
Judge Alexander Calero rubber-stamps the international removal of Malaika and Xayah to the Dominican Republic with non-blood strangers — Norma Olivares and Ronald Rivas Silverio — separating them from family during the holidays
No One’s Above the Law
Based on everything we’ve witnessed, Judge Alejandro Morales has become part of the machinery that tears children from good families and funnels them into dangerous placements. Whether he admits it or not, his rulings make him complicit in what many of us recognize as a state-run child trafficking pipeline.
Bad Actor
Judge Alejandro Morales
The Collective for Family Justice & Human Rights speaks on behalf of a family in Vista dependency court, fighting for two little girls who never should have been torn from their bonded family.
This message is directed to Judge Morales and to every actor who chooses to stand with him. From our side of the courtroom, what is happening does not feel like justice. It feels like fear, control, and deep injustice.
“Vista Terror” — how Vista dependency court feels to families like ours.
What We Have Experienced
- Children kept away from their blood family even when relatives are ready, willing, and approved to care for them;
- Medical and behavioral red flags that seem minimized or brushed aside;
- Sexual-abuse concerns and trauma that, from our view, are treated as something to contain, not confront;
- Restraining orders and threats that feel less about safety and more about punishing speech.
The Girls at the Center
At the heart of this case are two little girls: Malaika and Xayah. We believe they have been harmed emotionally and psychologically by being kept in a non-relative placement with Norma Olivares, while their entire blood family feels they are being deliberately pushed out of their lives.
- We see a pattern of decisions that weaken their bond with their mother, father, and grandparents instead of strengthening it;
- We see trauma and distress in these children that cannot be ignored;
- We see a system that looks more interested in control than in genuine healing.
Retaliation as We See It
When family members speak out, build websites, share their story, and refuse to be silent, we have seen responses that feel like punishment: cold court calls, being cut off, and the message that if we do not comply on their terms, they will simply move forward without us.
We reject this. We answer first to the safety and well-being of these children and to the truth of what we have lived.

— The Collective for Family Justice & Human Rights
San Diego’s Child Welfare system is defrauding the federal government through abusive misuse of Title IV-E funds — rewarding removals, punishing reunification, and financially incentivizing the very retaliation the Robinson-Lopez, Jay & Jennifer Roydson, and Julius & Leanne families are living through.
