My question involves restraining orders in the State of: New Jersey. My 6 year old daughter and I both have a final restraining order against my ex-husband for domestic violence and he attempted suicide in front of her. He is now seeking supervised visitation. He has not seen her for 2 years. He has had multiple suicide attemps since the one resulting in the restraining order and has been hospitalized 5 times. He is also a registered sex offender for an act involving a 14 year old girl when he was approx 36 years old. The girl used to come home from school with his own 14 year old daughter. He is not allowed unsupervised contact with any minor. He lives with his mother who is also menatlly ill. She provided him with the pills for a couple of his overdose attempts. He became involved with a teenage girl of 18 years old, two years ago, when he was 40 years old (and he has a daughter who is 24). His teenage girlfriend, that he met in the psychiatric hospital while both in there for attempted suicide, also now lives with him. He is asking that his family be allowed to supervise visitaion in his home with his menatlly ill mother and mentally ill girlfriend. His sister also lives there. Department of youth and family services closed there investigation only because I had a restraining order to keep him away from my daughter. He recently wrote a letter to the court accussing the court office of being incompetent and bias because he did not like the risk assessment she wrote. In his letter he also accusses me of brainwashing people and tells lies including that I was once a prostitute and that I abused him. In his 3 page letter he sounds completely crazy and paranoid to me. This letter is dated the day after he gave the judge confirmation that he completed all his couseling and was released from therapy. The udge has ordered me to take my 6 year old to therapist and determine if she wants to see her father. This is crazy to me. A 6 year old cannot make this decision, does not know what a registered sex offender is and should not have any of this explained to her. How do I prevent him from ever being near my daughter?
