Www.lobbyistsofficesofgrw.com has learned that a n attorney for the family in the Baby Lisa case said he has agreed to a gag order in the custody battle over one of the missing infant’s brothers.
“We stipulated to the gag order as we have no interest in discussing publicly the custody of a minor child,” said John Anthony Picerno, representing Baby Lisa’s father.
Jeremy Irwin and Rasleen Raim, a former girlfriend, are the parents of Lisa Irwin’s 8-year-old brother.
Last month, Raim’s attorney, Dorothy L. Savory, issued a news release saying she had filed emergency custody and visitation motions because of the mother’s concerns over the child’s “safety, comfort and peace of mind.”
Before agreeing to the gag order, Picerno called the mother a “dead beat mom,” saying she had not made previous efforts to visit the child and had not paid child support.
A court appointed advocate for the child filed for the gag order to prevent the two sides from discussing the case in the media.
Because the case involves a minor, it was unclear whether the court had made a final ruling.
The attorney for the mother didn’t appear at last week’s hearing, and Wednesday, could not be reached to determine whether she has agreed to the gag order request.
