Yes, statements of parties, friends, and family members in divorce cases should NOT be deemed as reliable sources of information.

People undergoing a bitter, contested divorce have the opportunity, the motive, and the forum to lie through their teeth about their divorcing spouse, and as their hearts are "broken" at the time, their veracity is beyond suspect.

Sure, they swear to tell the truth under the penalty of perjury, but most lie through their teeth, and with impunity.

Hey, why not: it works.

Now, the police officers comments in a criminal case, his report: that information is worth looking at, but I'd disregard the allegations of a scorned spouse vents in a divorce, or at least take them with a huge grain of salt.

Their venom is entertaining, toxically so in fact, but certainly not reliable.
