As for the stepkids, confront them with the new information and see how they feel. IF they are lost and are so heavily influenced by their mother, so be it.So far she has been a terrorist fighting a covert war, its time to defend yourself with everything you've got.
You're right on both counts. She even had the nerve to tell me not to call stepdaughter to apologize for showing up uninvited until, perhaps the next time she calls me. They've had enough. Enough what? Also, I've been (too) reasonable during mediation. Tonight, after this sh!t revelation, I started pushing back and demanding - hard.

Heck, I'm glad you're just there. More and more I've been telling posters to look at the number of Views next to their thread on the list, Then lookk at the number of rsponses. The ratio is usually 10:1, so there are far more of us - like you - reading, following along and commiserating than there are responding. That helps, too. Thanks.
