Judge Pirro Defends Sarah Evan’s Husband
Tuesday, September 20, 2011 2:47PM
On today’s show, Craig Schelske, ex-husband of country music star Sara Evans, told his story to Anderson.
Craig could not say whether or not he had done the things that Sarah's lawyers are saying he did, but that didn’t stop Judge Jeanine Pirro. Take a look...
After seeing Craig on “Anderson,” do you think it would be difficult if allegations were made against you, and you were the not-famous person in the relationship? How would you cope with being caught up in a tabloid feeding frenzy?

If Craig cared so much about his children he shouldn't be going on national television and goinh to the media talking about their mother. Sounds like his alamony is running out so he is grasping at straws. Maybe it's time he take a look at his past unsuccessful politician, unsuccessful marriage, come on Craig if you are moving on then that means not stiring up the past. Be a man, step up, provide and quit the classless garbage talk.
Icicles382, You accuse me of being either a member of Craig's family or hired help. I'm not a family member and I'm not hired help. I know Sara well and know that her family writes on these blogs all the time.
I first heard about the divorce on TV when Sara said things about Craig. He didn't get a restraining order or a gag order. Looks like its wrong if he does it, right if she does.
Some days I think the whole world is crazy.
It has been so entertaining reading all of these comments! I must say, Craig is over-represented on this wall. Anyone who supports Sara is assumed to be her family member by the actual family members and hired help of Craig. Is that irony? I call it entertaining. Basically this is what should be taken away from this Sara/Craig situation: they divorced. They are now ruining each others lives. We should collectively pity their stupidity, ban Sara's songs (because I'm sorry, they suck) and remind Craig that he isn't anyone at all.
I think a judge should take those kids away from both of them and place them with a family who will help them recover from all that drama. Those kids would be better off with some middle-class family in Anytown, USA than living in that hell. Both parents need to be locked up somewhere alone so they can't make anyone else's life miserable.
Fred, I get tired of reading the same old harassing statements about Avery, Olivia and Audrey's father. I think you must be a family member of Sara's because they repeat the same things all the time. In your comment you flat out lie and misconstrue Craig's words and actions. Sara and her minions have inflicted enough pain and you should be ashamed of yourself.
Questions......How many visitation days has Craig missed this year? Since he does not have a full-time job why hasn't he moved closer to his kids and been involved in their lives in the past few years? These are some of the questions that should have been asked on Anderson Cooper or even been investigated.
From one father to another get involved in your kids lives and be where they are at every activity and then ask for more time or custody of them. Move on with your life Sara has!
I am the publicist for Craig Schelske. I would like to invite anybody with concerns, questions, or comments regarding divorce or child custody to visit Craig's official website, www.thecraigschelske.com. Given Craig's background and social issues he is a stratigic consultant who would be delighted to consult with individuals who are suffering at the hands of the family court system.
Just saw this interview...couldn't help but start humming one of my favorite tunes.
"Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light."
Hey Sara, the light is shining!
Thank you Judge Pirro!
I love reading comments from Sara's family. They go from one lie to another. If the first lie (divorce filing) is proven false then they grasp at straws and call Craig an alcoholic. This is laughable! Craig was the primary caregiver of the kids before the divorce. Anyone that says different then this is rewriting history. Sara did over 200 shows the year she filed for divorce. You can't be the primary parent if your that busy! Sara and Craig agreed that he would be the primary parent while the family went on tour and in the home-and he did all of the cooking too!
Look at the facts. Allison Clinton (the nanny) sues Sara for slander/defamation/etc - Sara settles the day before the trial starts for a reported $500K. Craig sues Sara's attorney John Hollins Sr. for slander/defamation/etc - Hollins settles just before trial AND issues a public letter of apology. Conclusion: the allegations made in the divorce filing were false, and outrageously so. Question: Why did Sara Evans make up these lies, allows these lies to be made and/or refuse to set the record straight, if for no another reason than to prevent harm to her innocent children and their relationship to their father? Speculation: Something is far more important to her than her children. Conclusion: Someone who would let such lies remain part of the public record and spread poison into the lives of her children, is a psychopathic liar, or just pure evil. Such a person has no right to be the mother to any child.

There are so many elements to this story that have never come out. Craig hasn't had a real job since in about 20 years. He's in his late forties now folks... if that doesn't scream out dead beat dad I don't know what does. Throughout their marriage he lived off of Sara's income and never contributed anything of any significance to the family's bank account. Was he being a good stay at home dad and helping during that time??? Of course not... Sara was the primary bread winner AND the primary parent of their three children.
Craig is an alcoholic who is entitled and manipulative. A leopard doesn't change his spots.
I think Sara Evans ex-husband is a liar and he is unworthy of any more custody than he has. He is lucky he has as much visitation as he has.
Kim, I'm shocked at your lack of common sense and your inability to listen to facts. Craig has moved on from Sara but will never move on from his children and it's cold hearted to suggest he move on from them. In the show Craig clearly states he sees his children but is trying to modify the custody agreement to joint custody so he can have more time with them. Sara and her disaster of a divorce attorney lied about Craig so that Sara could gain full custody. It worked until now...they're going to create a new custody plan soon because Craig finally has a fighting chance to gain time with his precious children. Why defend Sara? Clearly she was deceptive. Instead you should ask what kind of mother lies about the father of her children? It's pretty obvious Sara doesn't have enough confidence to stand on her parental merits alone so she had to resort to deception. Makes you wonder what is wrong with her? You must be a family member and mad that your gravy train is being threaten!
