MassOutrage is a collection of real-world practical information about how the Massachusetts Department of Social Services (DSS) works, how restraining orders work, and how to fight them to save your family. This site will help you learn about the actual tactics used by the DSS to illegally kidnap children from families, and how radical victim-witness advocates (sometimes also from the DSS) exploit courts and others to illegally obtain restraining orders.

Attorney Gregory A. Hession prepared this website because so many clients have endured outrageous mistreatment at the hands of DSS agents and victim-witness advocates. To accomplish their ends, they use false allegations, and exploit the fact that the court system has abandoned due process of law (which means our constitutionally protected procedural rights such as jury trials, opportunity to be heard promptly, the rules of evidence, innocent until proven guilty, etc.).

Those who commit these outrages know that the system is biased in their favor, and that they can count on help from judges, guardians ad litem, and therapists. Many of them have adopted an agenda which is anti-family, without understanding the problems it causes. Some are merely afraid to stand as a bulwark against tyranny. Either way, children and harmed, and families torn apart needlessly.
