And suckonthis, don't know your situation exactly or how things are handled in your city but this is the kind of stuff judges see day in and day out in divorce cases.
People are always making up the wildest stories in order to gain leverage whether it be for monetary distribution or custody.
Justice is slow in family court as well, and requires a person to have a lot of patience during one of their most difficult times in their lives.
A similar thing happened to my father, after having custody of my brother for 9-10 years my mother makes one false accusation to the court and my brother was whisked away for a year.
The problem with the family court system in Fort Worth is they have what they call a "masters court." It's supposed to streamline the process, it's a lawyer who is chosen by the Judge to handle all preliminary motions, so it can take 1-2 years before you even get in front of the real judge.
You can by law request to skip the masters court, but that usually pissess off the judge so lawyers always advise against it.
After dealing with the bullshit for a year, my father was handling his own case and I was doing all of the filing I finally talked him into just skipping the Masters and having it kicked up to the judge.
He did and within one day my father got custody back and everything was over.
Family court is a crazy experience and I don't wish anyone should ever have to go through it.
