Divorce Corp catalogs egregious examples of family court corruption throughout the United States, with California courts portrayed as the most corrupt in the country. Within California, Sacramento Family Law Court emerges as the poster child and worst-of-the-worst. 

Four cases from the Central Valley jurisdiction get screen time in the movie, and the namesake of the notorious Ulf Carlsson case gets a starring role. Carlsson's unsettling story, including the near-sociopathic retaliation against him by Judge Peter McBrien is recounted in this startling Divorce Corp video clip, posted at YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oO3OLaz_uFA&feature=share&list=PLrSm4-raJZ05fYHoRGgR4Pci0rmdVML0- 

Sixth District Court of Appeal Presiding Justice Conrad L. Rushing characterized McBrien's conduct in the case as a "judicial reign of terror."  

Even before the release of the documentary, Sacramento Family Court News, an online, nonprofit journalism organization published investigative reports and news about the troubled Sacramento court system.
