Case Summary
In response to requests from local child welfare advocates to investigate the systemic failings of the Tennessee Department of Children’s Services (DCS), Children’s Rights filed a class action suit in 2000 on behalf of the more than 9,000 children in DCS custody. A settlement agreement calling for sweeping reforms was reached in 2001, but initially yielded few results through several changes in leadership. In 2003, Children’s Rights brought a contempt action in federal court seeking to expedite implementation of the court-ordered reforms. In the years since the contempt motion, DCS under new leadership has made some progress, especially on infrastructural issues, but much work remains to be done before the benefits of the settlement are fully delivered to the State’s abused and neglected children.
Children’s Rights is continuing to monitor the work of DCS to ensure the health and safety of children in the Tennessee foster care system (Learn more…)

I have had DCS in my home since November of 2007. In February 2008 I informed my DCS worker that I wanted to speack to an attorney before speaking with her. On march 11 I was court ordered to comply with services. On march 12 Dcs family councilor came to my home and I comlied. On march 19th my husband and I attended a family team meeting. I explianed that alot of the statements Dcs was making were false. My husband and I were given a drug screen which we PASSED and were then informed our children were being removed because WE ARE IN DENIAL!!!! We have complied. We have had a CCP evaluation, Mental Health Intake, Anger managment, and family services have been completed as well as taking a hair folicial test. The judge feels my children should not have been removed as well as some of the people who are working for the department. My children were taken because I called them liers. The judge ordered OPEN AND LIBIARIAL visits until our review date which is Aprial 29th, But we have been informed that DCS doesn`t care what the judge said. We have only seen our children for 4 in march and 4 hours this month which is the bare minimum that is stated in their POLICIES AND PROCEDURES! I am confadient that I will have my children back in a week on April 19th. One of DCS own employees is testifing in our behalf. My children should have never been taken. A case was opened on me when a family memeber of mine made a complaint after I had reported her to Her case manager. When my family memeber was investigated on the information I reported, she fafiled a drug screen, her children were missing adderal and most of the clothes that had returned the the store, but DCS closed her case!! I want someone to review her case and mine and explian to me why in the hell my children were taken yet my family memeber got her case closed!! As soon as i can find an attorney who will take my case with no retainer(to be included in damages) I am suing.
this happend to me in california. i was at work and got a call that the d.c.s worker came to my grandmothers house to question my son at the time was only six years old. so i left work went to the house and twenty minutes later the worker and sheriff showed up would not tell me what was happening. through agruments and trying to figure out why they were there it ended. my son was to visit his mother so the worker and i took him there to his mother. i was told i would get him back monday morning at the court house where the mother and i was to have mediation for a move away order i filed. he was to be there at 730 but never showed his mother told me that the worker gave her custody. this was all based off lies from a neighbor that would not pay me for work done. and to find out the worker was the worker for the mother on her case were she had her daughter removed from her on several charges. and still going to court on the matter. i had the venue changed to another city in the county and that is when i found out that the worker and mother are friends. the worker left a message making fun of me on my phone. and told me that she would do anything to get my son. my son even told me that the worker had told him to say that my grandmother abused him or the judge would take him away. even the mothers attorney said that my son is a liar in court. it was a hard year and never would wish this on anyone. i want to sue but cant find an attorney also. all i can say is keep your head up. this will end soon and the most important thing is the childrens mental wealthfare after a trauma such as this they have a hard time readjusting and it is up to us to isure they know how much we love them.
I am disappointed and mad as hell at reading these testimonials. It amazes me and proves to me, the mass of families being dragged through a court system that that has no heart but only rules followed strictly not taking reasons, trauma. A child can be helped. If the courts see that felons, at least out here in California, can go free becuase there is no room in jails out, the state lets them out despite theft,drug related crimes, possession etc background. but for us dragged through the same system and with children minus felons is only one of the insane actions this country is doing to fix the states. My twins are 12, they are both bipolar, one not as mature as the other. I had a kidney transplant, thus I’m considered disabled as well. There is no family, dad gone, grandparents gone. All we have had is the community. More of my story will be posted on my new website: http://www.warriorsunite.com. We will build where one or two are gathered together, miracles can happen. This system will accomodate us. Feel free to email me your thought at uswarrior1@comcast.net
my horror story started 2-21-07 over a bruise caused by a faulty car seat that the health dept gave me! adjudication finally happened 11 months later on 1-22-08! reasons found children dependent/neglected? “unexplained bruising and improper use of a car seat” We immediately appealed but juvenlie court still has not released the file up to circuit court for we can get the appeal process started!
i am on my 3rd court appointed attorney that refuses to defend my parental rights, corrupt judge that wouldn’t know due process rights if stamped on her forehead! CPS, DCS, foster parents committing perjury. service providers refusing to help and do the right and moral thing because they don’t want to lose the DCS contracts. I have contacted state reps, us and state senators, governor, attorney general, us attorney general, all local media channels, etc… no one cares to expose the corruption and lies while DCS has set a date this oct to terminate our rights!!!! Told us this jan they were going to do it for they could adopt my now 2 y old out to the more affluent foster home that they specifically created to get my child. we are not even criminally charged with anything!! BUt get to lose out child! she was 10m the day of illegal removal she just turned 2 4-21-08. no b-days, no holiday visitaion–nothing but 3 hour supervised till feb 2008, now every other weekend unsupervised! please help!!!! I am actively seeking people to join my class action against all the people who refuse to address this miscarriage of justice!!!!
I have recently lost my 4 year old little boy to murder! The step-father who had prior allegations of abuse (toward my son) turned in on him punched my son twice in the stomach and then spanked him with a belt which resulted in my sons death do to blunt force trauma to the abdomen. Step-Father is currently incarcerated in jail on First Degree Murder and my sons mother is incarcerated for Permitting Child Abuse. I want DHS to pay. I would appreciate any feedback. EMAIL me at cash_lumberjack@yahoo.com name the subject of your feedback ..CHILD ABUSE.. Thank You for your time and GOD BLESS you all!
STOP THE ABUSE!!!!!!! Floyd
Im a stepgrandmother of a daughter that got in trouble with DCS in Memphis TN. I can not believe what we have been through. This dept can do and say what ever they want and the courts back them up. We have a 2 year old Grandson that has never been given a fair chance. I did everything the dept said to do. And have it documented in there records. And they can still lie about it. And the Judges won’t correct the Dept. I trusted and belivied in a Dept, DCS that has no acountiblty.
My children have been through a terrible time thanks to DCS/child protective services and the judical system. I am appalled at the lies that this system will believe. My daughter had been inappropriately touched by her father and after speaking with her the DCS worker said that since it was a divorce case she did not believe the child who was 10 years old at the time. This system is the biggest waste of taxpayers money and the judical system is not far behind. It is a crime what is being done to these childrem. My children spent 50 percent of their time with their dad and are scared to death during that time. There is alcohol abuse and he has an anger problem, but none of that mattered.
i am so thankful to have u all place this information on here about dcs. i too am going through something where dcs took my daughter 8 months ago after my son died which was ruled an accident. they keep saying he was abused and they have all this proof but all i have seen is them trying to cover for each other. my son was very sick and in the hospital all the time and nobody ever thought he was abused all they talked about is how happy he was. i am currently building a case against them for wrongfully taking my daughter from me and false charges when i prove im right and they are wrong im suing everyone involved in this case and they will all be fired!
Im going through a hard time dcs was called on me for lies and my aunt and cousin done it they wanted my 6 month old so they took all 3 of my babies because i would not let them have her. they said i abuse my children and dcs did not even investigate it they just beleave it and i have lost my children and i go back to court next month i dont know what to do.
Our family has been going through our mess since Oct. 2006.
It has been HELL on Earth. This is soooo ridiculous. We are devastated. I can’t believe what DCS can put a family through. We have 7 children and I have 3 left with me, 2 are at their dads, one is at her moms and one is with my mother in law. This has been the biggest mess. DCS didnt come after me until they found out that I didnt believe the allegations against my husband. The made him leave and there has been a no contact order with him and my 8 yr. old since Oct. 2006. He has supervised visits with theh biological children. Ugh!!!! Soooo frustrated.
With DSS you are guilty until proven innocent. My ex-wife has reported me 5 times for abuse. The last one I am stiil in court with. I have lost my second wife over this. My 2 daughters have been removed because she said I was watching them in the shower. My kids have told DSS that this didn’t happen. How many false reports does it take for them to go after her. My kids beg the DSS worker to let them come home and they tell them that they might not ever get to see me again and it scares them. I have been involved in their schools and have them involved with church programs. Their mother ran off when they were 2 and 3 years old. She keeps punshing me for not taking her back and DSS is always on her side. I am going to file a suit against them after this is over. Its scary how easy it is for someone to run their mouth and ruin lives.
IT HURTS TO MUCH TO RECALL. DCFS IS FAKE THEY DO MORE DESTROYING FAMLIES THAN ANYTHING. THEY NEED TO BE EVALUATED. THEY HAVE TAKEN MY BABY AWAY BECAUSE OF THE GREIVANCE OF MY DAUGHTER THAT WAS KILLED NINE YEARS EARLIER. SAID I WAS EMOTIONALLY UNSTABLE. FROM THE LOSE OF MY DAUGHTER , THEY TOOK HIM WHEN WE WENT TO REGISTER HIM FOR HIS NEW SCHOOL. RIGHT BEFORE MOTHERS DAY , MY CASE WORKER AMMIE ALLISE WENT OUT OF TOWN I DID NOT EVEN KNOW WERE THYE TOOK HIM . I WANTED TO DIE. THAT WAS IN 2004 IM STILL FIGHTING THEM TO GET HIM, THE JUDGE PUT A NOCAONTACT ORDER AGAINST MY OLDEST SON, BECAUSE I CALLED THE POLICE ON HIM FOR BEING A BAD INFLENCE BECAUSE HE GOT DESTRUCTIVE. THEY ARE EVIL AND LIE AND MINIPULATE. SO THEY CAN GET THER BONUS.
MY LITTLE BOY HAS HAD HIS JAW BROKEN AND HAD TO WIRED IT SHUT, FOR SIX WEEKS IN THE FOSTER HOME THEN SIX MOTHS LATER HE WAS REMOVED FORM THE SAME HOME BECASUE A OLDEST SON SEXUALLY ABUSED HIS YOUNGER SISTER. YESSTERDAY I WAS INFORMED THAT THYE ARE DOIN A INVESTEGATION BECASEU MY LITTLE BOY WAS SEXUALLY ABUSED. aND THEY SAY I ABUSED HIM BECAUSE I HAD CONTACT WITH MY OLDEST SON AFTER THREE YEARS. AND THEY WERE IN THE PROCESS OF CLOSEING MY CASE AND INCVOLVING HIM IN FAMILY THERAPY SECIONS AT THE SCHOOL. INSTEAD THEY TOOK HIM AGAIN AFTER I COMPLEATED THE SEVICE PLAN AND BEYOUND.I HAD HIM FOR NINE MONTHS AND THEY TOOK HIM BECAUSE WE HAD CONTACT WITH MY OLDEST SON. THEY DONT CARE WHAT THEY DO TO CHILDREN MOTHERS FAMILIES. I AM SO AMAZED THAT I HAVE HELD THREW. I AM SO SAD AND EMTY WITHOUT MY CHILDREN. I PRAY THAT GOD WILL BLESS THESE CORUPTED HUMAN S. AND GIVE THEM SOME KIND EMPATHY. THESE CHILDEREN ARE OUR FUTURE. WE ARE PEOPLE I AM A HEARING IMPAIRED SINGLE MOTHER WITH A DISABILIETY THEY HAVE TAKEN THE MOST PRECIOUSE TIME IN MY LIFE AWAY FROM ME ALL TO TOURTURE AND ABUSE THEM. I BEGG SOMEONE OR ALL TO WAKE UP AND SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING BEFORE IT HAPPENS TO SOMEONE IN YOUR LIFE OR CHILDREN.
I AM FROM IOWA AND I KNOW THAT DHS IS TOTALLY NOT IN THE WELL INTEREST IN THE CHILD. MY SON WAS TAKEN AWAY FROM HIS FATHER AND PUT INTO FOSTER CARE AFTER HIS FATHER MOVED TO SOUTH DAKOTA WITH HIM. HE WAS GRANTED CUSTODY BY A JUDGE!!!! MY SON HAS NOW BEEN IN FOSTER CARE FOR OVER A YEAR AND WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HOME FOR GOOD TODAY AND THE WORKER IN THIS CASE SOMEHOW HAS PUT A HAULT TO IT. WE HAVE TWO MONTHS OR OUR TIME IS UP. ALL FOR MOVING TO A DIFFERENT STATE. YET AT THE SAME TIME WE HAVE ONE SON AND TWINS ON THE WAY. AND THE SON WE HAVE IS ONLY SIX YEARS OLD AND THEY NEVER TOOK HIM. THEY SAY ITS A DIFFERENT CASE. ALL THE WORKER WANTS TO DO IS GET THE BONUS AND THE MONEY FOR ADOPTING OUT A PERFECTLY BEAUTIFUL BLONDE HAIR BLUE EYED BOY. THE BONUS IS ALL THEY SEE.
It has been almost a year. My grandson wants home with his dad in the worst way. DHS has lied, acted without jurisdiction, refused contact for my son and his little boy (whom he has raised alone for over 7.5 years), acted without jurisdiction in getting a bogus psychosexual evaluation, caused a 14-man police raid on 2 homes for a recording they lied about saying that we recorded them, when they were concerned because we caught them, on tape, admitting to causing emotional abuse, caused my grandson to be exposed to sexual abuse (when that was the lie the police pulled on my son over some internet pictures – not that he ever hurt – or has been accused of – ever hurting his son); forced our website trying to defend ourselves to be taken down and are trying to take away custody before the jurisdictional contest hearing can take place and before my son can even be tried or exonerated for the false charges that DHS has helped create. No one will help us in Oegon. My grandson is an amazing and wonderful little man. He’s been placed with his mother who abandoned him at 8 and been forced into some very bad situations. DHS terminated parental rights without my son having a right to be present. My son’s had to switch attorneys and would get no help from the Oregon state bar against an attorney who withheld documents from him. He barely gets to see his son, if at all – even when counselors and attorneys have said that the two of them need to see each other for my grandson’s welfare and the judge has ordered it – FIVE times. We’ve contacted every public official in and out of Oregon and have letters from all of them turning us away or passing the buck. We have proof of their egregious actions toward my grandson in retaliation for our complaining. We have very sound proof of their constant lies. In Oregon, DHS/CPS has taken over 10,000 – 12,000 kids per year, half of them for the ‘threat of harm’ (same excuse they pulled on my son), claiming that there’s no abuse or sign of abuse – ever – only that DHS/CPS believes that someday, in the future, there might be. We’re looking actively for peoples’ help. We’re looking actively for lawyers in this state or who can practice here who will help us. We’ve lost every dime fighting this, and are still working hard to keep fighting. These people need stopped now. A reform is in order – and we’ll stand with anyone who is willing to come forward.
all these stories are very sad and mine is no different. I could tell you about the 4 siblings that were intentionally seperated for NO REASON at all but I won’t, it is to stressful. What I will share is what we all already know. There is NO power greater than DSS. They are above the law, have no accountability and can do and STEAL children when they please and make up why they did it. Their agency will continue to be funded by the government. The fed gov will tell you they have nothing to do with state decisions but they do. Right down to rewarding agencies via bonus to abduct children and steal them from their families. I’d like to find the organization or the dept in Washington that is fighting for our civil rights. How ignorant can we be, slavery is NOT DEAD. Children are boldly stolen by DSS ever day and the law is beneath DSS and they ignore this horiffic crime of stealing children.
CPS has lied to the judge saying she never investigated me which she did. They never talked to my doctors to see if I was med compliant, they never even knew the dosages of my children’s med’s. They are just believing what my abusive husband has to say. My daughter’s theripist even told cps at their table meeting that I was not a danger to my children and CPS leaves him safety monitor which he’s a danger to them mentally, verbally and emotionally. and the god mother tried calling CPS a half of dozen times to voice her concern about my husband. He’s a very controlling person and scary and the judge said she’d go along with CPS decision I need to sue CPS for being totally wrong my husband which I have left I couldn’t bring my children with me due to CPS and he doesn’t even want to take care of my children when he and I were talking he would tell me you have to come home and do your job. Well he laid the guilt trip on me and I wanted to go to a homeless shelter and that wasn’t good enough for him so he took me back to the house and held me hostage and kept telling me that if I told anybody that he would take my kids and I would never see them again. Finally he let me go after 2 weeks but now I’m so scared for my children. Please help we need a class action lawsuit against CPS. They have left my children in a very dangerous situation with my soon to be ex-husband.
Hi CPS took my child because my ex-husband lost custody and used them. What started out as a catfight turned into a nightmare. I damaged a “door” but CPS returned her. 43 days later they kidnapped her and tortured her for almost 6 months. They then shipped her out of state to the fathers house where the phone was disconnected and she was stripped of her cell phone. She was held hostage while CPS gives custody to the father. CPS knows that my daughter isnt abused but they want the BLOCK GRANTS. They are an EVIL entitity that needs to be stopped out. We need to go to the media, TV and start voting for honest politicians if we ever expect change. VOTE NO TO H.3038 that renews ASFA (Adoption Safe families act) that gives BLOCK GRANTS to CPS. Until we do the kidjacking and corruption will never stop.
Our children were reomoved from us in August 2006. We went to all the programs they asked us to, Parenting, Domestic Violence, although there was no domestic violence, and Drug Diversion Program, when we finished they would not accept our completions because we did not finish in 6 months, but all the surrounding counties in california give up to 36 months, we completed in 9 months.The social worker lied on all her reports, made statements from others that were never said, when this was brought up in court, with proof of her lies, the judge still sided with the social on everything. Nothing we had to say ever mattered. In this county, social workers get $10,000 dollars for every child they adopt out, so they have a 90% adoption rate. My children are now up for adoption and living in another state. If anyone has any suggestions on what I can do to stop it and bring my child home please email me Keldobbins@aol.com
My 17 year old daughter and her 7 month old son were taken from her guardian by dcs a few months ago. After a misunderstanding about a webcam in her room. The police checked the computer and webcam and found nothing to back up DCS’s charges. My daughter also told them the day they came to get her and her son the information they had was wrong. She never made those statements. They took them away anyway. They placed them in an 2 different african american foster home. Which wouldn’t be a problem if they didn’t try to force their believes and way of live on her and her son. Dcs has lied and treated her all most everyday since. Telling her if she complains about how she’s been treated or if she doesn’t watch her mouth. They will take her baby and she will never see him again. I also heard the foster mother say if she didn’t watch her mouth she would get her monthly allowance ($30). Her DCS woeker took her shopping for clothes she didn’t like the outfit the DCS worker picked out and didn’t want to try it on. The worker told her in Walmart if you don’t do what i say i can have your baby taking away. She asked for a lawyer and they refused to get her one until the day she went to court. Her lawyer informed the judge that she had asked DCS to bring the children to her 2 weeks before the court date they refused. My daughter was getting low on food, diapers and other items her and her son needed the foster family wouldn’t take her to the store and her case worker took almost 2 days to take her shopping. They will not let her leave the house unless they are going somewhere. We informed the judge of this on July 31 2008 he had her moved to a new home. Also on July 31 2008 we arrived at the court house to find my daughter in tears. Her DCS worker was grabbing at her cloths and yelling at her to take off her coat in the waiting area of the court house. At the new home she’s in. She said she feels like a dog they keep in a cage that they feed when they feel like it. We have contacted DCS’s home office in Nashville TN and they have done nothing. We are now talking to the governors office in TN. We gave them a week to reply.We have also informed the legal department for the Governor if we don’t heard from them we will be fileing another lawsuit against DCS,each of the workers on our case and the Governor personaly. Dcs has lied,filed false reports, blackmailed and threaten my daughter. They also file charges on my daughter and didn’t tell her until she had been in their custody for almost 3 weeks. Now since we went to court they have changed the charges against her and told her they had some kinda video of her abusing her son. My lawyer nor my daughters lawyer has heard anything about a tape or seen such a tape.
My family and I will keep fighting to get this stopped. Since it seem that the first lawsuit did nothing to fix DCS and it’s problems.
Anyone in TN or any state should contact your governor’s office ASAP don’t let DCS ruining anymore lives.
Governor’s office in TN 615-741-2001
Good luck to you all and God bless
I found this and it gives me some hope.
Family Rights Today: Mother Awarded 4.9 Million Dollars In Lawsuit Against CPS
April 02, 2007 02:35 AM EDT (Updated: April 02, 2007 03:35 AM EDT)

A Southern California mother, Deanna Fogarty-Hardwick, filed a lawsuit against Child Protective Services (CPS). She claimed caseworkers had unjustly taken her children in February 2000. The children were ages 6 and 9 at the time. The accusation against her was that she was telling the children that their father was trying to take them away from her.
Because of this, the children were placed in the Orangewood Children’s Home. The children were kept there for a month, then transferred to a foster home for two months. Eventually they were placed in their father’s custody, and the mother had to endure the humiliation of supervised visits.
Another family destroyed!
But wait! The mother recovered from the injustice done to her enough to file a federal lawsuit based on violations of Constitutional law. With the help of an attorney, Shawn A. McMillan, they went after the Orange County (California) Department of Social Services and three caseworkers.
In the lawsuit the mother alleged the caseworkers intentionally misled the court, fabricated evidence against her, and hid exculpatory evidence. She also alleged that caseworkers withheld information from the judge regarding the emotional distress of the children, who wanted to be with their mother. Also alleged was that a supervisor in the agency refused Kinship Care rights to relatives without good cause, forcing the children to stay longer in foster care.
On March 23, 2007, after a seven-week civil trial, the jury found the Department of Social Services and caseworkers Marcie Vreeken and Helen Dwojak liable for violating the mother’s parental rights and violating the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
Deanna Fogarty-Hardwick was awarded 4.9 million dollars. The jury also awarded her an additional $5,900 in punitive damages. The large settlement was intended to ‘send a message’ to Child Protective Services bureaucrats.
In a press release after the settlement the attorney gave this list of illegal practices of the caseworkers involved:
… detention of children without a finding of imminent danger or serious physical injury;
… interviewing children without a parent present;
… continuing detention after learning there was no basis to do so;
… using trickery and fabricated evidence;
… failing to adequately train employees regarding the Constitutional rights of parents.
The attorney added:
“My client Deanna Fogarty-Hardwick, is satisfied by the Jury’s recognition of the harm that the defendants caused her. But, obviously, no amount of money can ever undo the damage inflicted upon Ms. Fogarty-Hardwick or her children. We expect the Jury’s 4.9 million dollar verdict will cause the County of Orange and its Department of Social Services to implement procedures to prevent future abuses by County social workers and protect other families.”
…
My opinion: I consider this to be outrageously good news. More people should be filing charges against CPS, but they don’t, mainly because they have a hard time finding attorneys willing to represent them. The attorneys know that CPS maims families by splitting them up using trumped up, inaccurate, or fictitious accusations. But it seems most attorneys don’t have the guts to fight CPS. Perhaps it isn’t a politically correct move to sue this overly powerful agency, yet this is what needs to be done if we’re ever going to be able to stop caseworkers from unfairly decimating families.
This all stareted for myself and the 1 st child I had 21 years ago.

I can only do this on a contingiousy plan I am in need of an attorney that has a heart and cares about our children.
My children were removed by cps after a doctor at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital made a number of false accusations, Cps came in and removed my boys without an investigation a year later I was found not guilty of any abuse by two judges however one judge didn’t return either of my boys and when i appealed the second judge return the oldest and sent the baby to live with his dad because “I expected the state to raise him” My baby has been sick since birth and was on Tn care and receiving WIC to help me pay for his special needs formula. The funny thing is cps removed them because they thought he had no insurance.I would like to be involved with or start a petition to Reform Cps /Dcs
i was sixteen when i got put into states custody. while i was in i got pregnant. i was sevt to another town. while i was pregnant my caseworker told me that if i voluntarily signed my daughter into custody she could stay with me in the foster home until i turned 18. then i could sign us both out. 7 days before i turned 18 i was switched to another caseworker because mine was “overloaded”. the day came and when i asked to sign her out they told me i couldnt. they told me that i had to do a lot of stuff then submit it to the judge to get her back. i tried ti comply while still in the foster home. it didnt go well. eventually i got kicked out of the home and my baby was taken to another home. for weeks noone would answer my calls and i didnt know where she was or if she was even ok. finally they called i got to see her for 2 hours at their convenience. however, my day did come. 6 months after my birthday i went to court for child support. when i spoke with the judge who i had been under for 2 years i was told that she didnt know anything about it. i was told that she had asked about us personally and was told that my daughter had gone home with me. that day dcs petitioned for custody.

CPS/DPSS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT (RIVERSIDE, CA) FOR KIDNAPPING OUR CHILDREN WITHOUT CAUSE
We are organizing a class action lawsuit against the County of Riverside, the State of California, and all parties involved in unlawfully detaining and holding our children against our will, and without cause. We have documented the deep, imbedded corruption in the “social services” agencies in California. We have filed three lawsuits so far, and are looking for other families who have also been annihilated by this evil. Go to the link at http://www.Fightcps.com to join the fight to save our children.
TRUTH
• CPS manufactures multiple nonexistent/fictitious abuse case scenarios to offset true statistical abuse case information.
• CPS concurrently processes these children from foster care to Adoption, in order to obtain perverse monetary incentives in the form of bonuses.
• CPS provides a market to neighboring agencies and the courts (Judges, psychologists, visitation monitors, court mandated behavioral class instructors, court appointed legal counsel, etc…), in order for them to financially benefit from the foster care/adoption system they themselves perpetuate.
• CPS victimizes innocent financially challenged families, and draws them into a corrupt system to utilize their children as pawns for this corrupt child commerce.
• CPS is utilized by family court officials and attorneys as an adverse tool to extricate children from one parent to the other, with reference to “parental alienation syndrome,” where in truth, the CPS caseworkers are the ones initiating the alienation of these children from their own birth parents. Caseworkers are never allowed to testify in court under the cloak of “CPS Authority” due to possible misuse or conflict of interest related to right to privacy laws (Very convenient)
• CPS utilizes unlawful & coercive measures to persuade vulnerable parents to submit to statements of nonexistent abuse, forcing desperate parents to “plea bargain” to a CPS fabricated crime, for the return of their children from foster care.
• CPS fabricates false allegations and most of their “investigations” to purposely mislead or misdirect a case.
• CPS intentionally fails to prosecute Parents accused of child abuse, since in the majority of cases, no initial crime has been committed. However, CPS continues to claim a crime has been committed, as THEY abuse/neglect the children.
• CPS knowingly abandons children into the foster care system, conscious that some individuals in these homes physically and/or sexually abuse those in their “protective” custody. CPS ignores crimes committed in foster care through failure to investigate.
• CPS fails to question these individuals for their abusive conduct, whereby, if it were a birth parent or not a foster care parent, these individuals would be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law in criminal court.
• CPS represents themselves in positive personas by omitting, altering, and falsifying documents, so as to mislead the public and or government of their true actions as listed above. Thereby publicly grandstanding, displaying an inaccurate social martyrdom for the well being of children.
The Police should determine if children need protection from their own parents, since child abuse is a Criminal offense.

Riverside County and CPS adopted out our beautiful, healthy, infant daughter, completely AGAINST OUR WILL, and against the law when she was only EIGHT HOURS OLD. They already had it all set up with their KANGAROO COURTS AND THEIR TURN-KEY ADOPT-A-WHITE-BABY COMMERCE SYSTEM. Neither parent had any history nor usage of any illegal drugs, and our daughter was born with an APGAR score of 9.8, with absolutely NO DRUGS in her or her mother’s systems. The Palm Springs Desert Regional Medical Center staged a urine test that was tampered with and was wrong, and they refused to use the mother’s blood or re-test her at all. The one urine test was the ONLY basis for their illegal abduction of our newborn infant, and it has been an illegal “legal loophole” battering of our daughter and our Parental rights ever since. On August 8, 2007, our newborn daughter was illegally and forcefully taken by William Michael Biles of Banning CPS, with the help of eight others at Desert Regional Medical center, with no court order nor warrant, and no police present. He physically threatened mother and newborn with the statement “Give me that baby NOW, or you and her will be physically hurt!” and we have fought for our daughter since. CPS contrived multiple hearsay untruths and presented falsifications to the court, without our knowledge. Judge Christopher Sheldon approved the criminal ADOPTION, then granted us a “Contested Jurisdictional Hearing,” and then suddenly, the case was transferred to Southwest Adjudication Center, where Commissioner Fernandez declared he lacked the power to render a Judgment on another Judge’s decision to have the Contested Jurisdiction Hearing, then Fernandez took it off calendar, where it stands today……we have been denied our daughter in this illegal kidnapping, and we have located proof that the County of Riverside and DRMC routinely set new mothers up this way, very often to take newborn white, healthy, drug-free babies to sell them on their own twisted underground baby market. We have been violated entirely, and we will keep fighting for our daughter.

For 10 years I worked closely in a professional capacity with DHS and Youth Court/Guardian Ad Litems through the Coast Mental Health Centers and a Child Abuse Prevention Center in Hancock, Harrison, and Jackson Counties. Now, for the last 9 years, I have used my Masters Degree in Education to teach elementary and middle school students. During these years, my husband and signed up to be adoptive parents through DHS and attended classes, etc. We even attended an adoption picnic once, and were very impressed. Ultimately, we didn’t adopt due to conflicts with my job and the children that were some of my clients through the agencies I worked with/for. I also wrote a Letter to the Editor at the Sun Herald about that adoption picnic trying to encourage people to seek these adoptions.
Now, the shoe is on the other foot. I can honestly say I have been on both sides of the fence when it comes to child protective services.
Due to my trust and belief in the “system” of protecting and family reunification of children, I reported the neglect of my 2 nieces (1 & 3 y/o) as well as their 2 older 1/2 sisters (12 & 13 y/o). They were subjected to drug abuse of my brother(who is the father of the 2 babies) and all of the girls’ mother. The 2 babies had their birth mother’s last name on thier birth certificate, and her legal husband’s name who have been separated for many years, although he is not the birth father. My mother paid to have the 3 y/o paternity test completed in order to begin procedings to adopt her, which my brother and the birth mom agreed to and encouraged. This was done before DHS got involved. DHS picked up and placed the children in the Harrison County Shelter in June, 2007 and they were in the shelter for almost 45 days because DHS didn’t have a home to place them in that could take/would take all 4 (DHS wouldn’t separate them). While the children were in the shelter, my mom had to prove that she was a relative, and DHS told her she had to pay for a paternity test on the 1 y/o, which did in fact prove that my brother is the father of 1y/o, and that my was indeed the grandmother. Right after that was completed, a foster home in George County was found that would take all 4 girls temporarily in early July2007. During the summer, DHS conducted a home study of my mom’s home and background check’s on all people in the household, which included me. Everything passed DHS standards, and all 4 girls were placed in my mom’s home during the 3rd week of July 2007. DHS did a couple of home visits with us, and did several school visits, but they were not consistently visiting 2x a month as they are supposed to be doing. All 4 girls thrived and were involved extensively in church activities that they were not in before. DHS initially stated there be no contact w/the children’s biological parents, which was followed. The biological mom and bio dad of the 2 babies willingly committed themselves into Whitfield’s Chemical Dependency Unit, and once released, they passed all drug tests required by DHS in order to have supervised visits with the children. DHS transferred the case to another social worker, who upon her 1st meeting with my mom, me, my brother, and the birth mom, was told that the girls’ mom and my brother(father to the 2 babies) that they HAD to sign papers to turn over the kids to DHS in order so the children could have proceedings started to be adopted by my mother. All 4 children remained in my mom’s home, and I have to interject at this point that my mom recieved NO financial assistance from DHS/State at all during the year placement with my mom. We were told it was because DHS doesn’t help KIN when children are placed with them through DHS. Luckily, my mother is in a position to financially support all 4 girls. The DHS social worker informed my mother that once the girls had been in her home for 1 year, then she would be able to adopt them legally since she was now considered “kin”.
In Feb. 2008, my mother recieved a letter fromt GWEN BECK, the Foster Parent Division, that she(Ms. Beck) would be removing all 4 girls IF my mother did NOT attend classes to become a certified foster parent. The DHS social worker, Denis Walker, stated to my mother, “Don’t worry about it, I’m not removing those girls.” My mother decided to go ahead and attend the all-day foster parent classes. My step-father wasn’t able to attend, so it was approved by DHS that the “nanny” for the babies to attend with my mom in place of my step-father. On the 1st day of classes, Gwen Beck informed my mother to not return, that she would not certify her. My mother did as the DHS social worker suggested and attended all the classes anyway, completing the entire course and receiving her certificate for completion. Gwen Beck showed favoritism and discrimination towards my mother. All of this can be verified by the “nanny” and the other classmates/attendees, who at the time were too afraid of Gwen Beck to stand up to this injustice for fear that she wouldn’t certify them. After this, my father and his wife, as well as his step-daughter were asked by my mother to attempt to become foster parents in Jones County due to the “veiled” threats of removal of the girls by Gwen Beck. Initially, my father and step-family refused, but then agreed when we all feared that babies, who were biologically KIN to us would be placed elsewhere, and in order to keep the babies, they had to take the 2 older 1/2 sisters as well. At the end of May2008, the older girls went camping with my father and step-mother, which the oldest girl (14), decided she didn’t want to live in Jones County with my father and step-mother after stated to me that she overheard them talking about the money they would recieve for taking the girls as well as planning on getting “support” money from my mom and the paternal grandparents of the older girls who lived in Louisiana. The oldest girl stated that she didn’t want to live with people who “only wants me for money”. DHS then made all the girls go stay in Jones County for the week before court in mid-June. The older girls had been “promised” alot and taken shopping and bowling, etc and made to beleive their life would be like that if they would request to live with them.
When the day of court arrived (mid-June 2008), DHS informed my mother that court was no big deal, just that Judge Ward was only “making a ruling” and there was no need to have a lawyer. During court, Judge Micheal Ward, appeared to all present that he was confused about why there should be a change in placement from a KIN household to a NON-KIN household. The 2 older girls decided that they would, after that week they spent in Jones County, that they prefered to live up there with my father. All people present at the hearing, including the DHS Social Worker, Denise Walker, believed right up to the last that Judge Ward was planning on keeping the girls in our household, but the Guardian Ad Litem, interrupted him just as he was about to pass his ruling decision and told him that he was to place them in a foster home, and that Gwen Beck had not certified my mother. Judge Ward was very upset that Gwen Beck did not show up for court to explain her actions and decisions, and he had set up a future court date and a court order for Gwen Beck to be required to be present, but due to the GAL, Angelique White pressuring Judge Ward to comply with her recommendation, which he did as Ms. White wanted. At this ruling, DHS then separated the 2 older girls from the 2 younger girls into 2 different foster homes, which each are NON-KIN to the girls placed in each. The 2 babies are KIN to my father, but were not placed with him at his and his wife’s request. The 2 babies are the only biological grandchildren of my mother. My daugther is adopted, but all 3 little girls have been raised together in the same household for the last 3 years (since Hurricane Katrina). This loss has devastated all of us, especially my 5 year old daugther. My father told my daugther on the phone to call the babies foster parent (his step-daughter) and ask to speak to the babies. My daugther called as he advised, but the foster parent wouldn’t answer, so my daugther left a voice message begging to talk to her cousins. A text from the foster parent was recieved almost immediately to “expect harrassment charges” because my 5 y/o daugther called. My father has also infolrmed my mother that the 3 year old has been getting up in the middle of the night crying for my mom, her daddy, and my daughter, walking the hallways. From all the years I worked with mental health and child protective agencies, I can only term this is mental and emotional abuse towards 3 children from this foster parent.
We were informed that a new law was put in place reguarding placement of children, with apparently no room for unique circumstances. There needs to be an amendment to this law, for each case if different. I feel that no part of the history of this case was looked at or considered on the part of the KIN relationship. I also see that deception, prejudice and discrimination, as well as the KIN family being used by DHS and the other systems that are created to protect childrent and are supposed to look for ways towards family reunification. Where there IS family (KIN) that wants the children, and has to means to provide for them without assistance from the state, then those should be the first to be given the option of taking the children instead of placement in a NON-KIN home.
After being in my mother’s home and complying with DHS requirements, in order to adopt the children for nearly an entire year, they remove the children and are now putting their children up for adoption with Non-KIN people. The ONLY time Non-KIN should be considered to adopt, is where there is NO kin available that wants to adopt those children.
Now, in this case, I have seen both sides, and been on both sides and I hope you “see” also how much the “system” is sadly lacking in the laws and procedures of actually protecting the children of MS best intrest.
I have a child in a CPS battle in Georgia. I need help with my case.
It is so sad to me reading all of these horrible events that have happend. I too am battling the state. My daughter was staying with her father for we have 50 50 custody she has been removed out of her fathers house on allagations. DHS has removed my child in may of 08. DHS did not call me untill the following day because the father and grandmother would not give them my number. They set up a court day for that day not giving me time to be in astoria. DHS has made many false accusations about me and my fiance. DHS has said that I am not a competant mother ( even though I have my other 3 children in my custody) I am not stable (meaning I cant afford an attorney) and that I have a substance abuse problum. All of this was based on accusations that came from the grandmother. So the first court date was immediatly stopped and I had to take a breathalizer test at the sheriff’s office. (which I passed). Then it went to trial, They used everything they could against me even my myspace account!!!! They said that it wasn’t safe to let my daughter to my home, even though they said if my daughter had been with me there would have been no reason to take her nor a reason to take any of my other children.. so we have been jumping through there hoops taking random ua’s wich I have passed completed parenting classes we also moved onto a bigger house and we all know that isn’t cheap,and still they treat me like a abusive mother. I have been going to supervised visits since may 08. We drive 5 hours to astoria every other week to see her in a “viewing booth” for an hour. and they come over the intercom telling me I cant talk about my daughters return home. Then her father gets to take her out around seaside she gets to go to his house watch movies and have fun for 2 hours once a week. It is so hard the emotional stress that it has caused all of my children, fiance, other faimly members and myself. My 3 children always ask me about there sister and wonder why she cant return. They have the odasity to tell me that i have an anxity issue when they are the cause of it. I dont know what to do right now eveyone needs to stand together and fight them, we cant let them ruin our childrens futures.
I too have and am currently dealing with these “Dogs” This is but just one of the many Government agencies that are a true end product of encroaching Socialism. My wife and I had a domestic where there was yelling, grabbing, and a trashed house. Of course we were both drunk. This was not a norm, and I could see how the State or anyone would want to know and be sure that it’s not. But…I went to jail, and they took the kids from her. both the boys were in school in the early morning and when they left for school we were both embracing and very happy in our garage. We usually sneak it if we party and try to minimize and or completely avoid the kids knowing about it, they don’t need to be around anyone thats drunk obviously. Anyway, my 2 younger children were there, my infant son, and my almost 2 yr old daughter..this took place Dec 08. Because she had woken up and the policeman said they had witnessed violence..it became a felony instead of a misdemeanor. They took the kids untill Christmas, we were lucky as my Mom was awarded temp supervisory since she’s a CASA agent from Montana. Otherwise the kids would still be in foster care. I am glad the kids are home and of course I miss them, witht he state “suggesting” doing certain classes battery/alcohol/mental/parenting..etc etc etc. even if you don’t need them. They look at it as “well obviously, you needed something, why were we there then?” At the time of the incedent, my 2 yr old was in a totally other side of the house, and my infant son lay sleeping in his cradle. hahaha..well, whatever it was wasn’t even loud enough to rouse a sleeping 5 month old. Anyway, they took the boys 11 and 13 from their school that had nothing to do with it and questioned them without an attorney present. Funny how that works, obviously twisting and turning words to try and implicate us in w/e the questions were. Since I have a state issued no contact order with my wife I can’t ask her whats going on even though I know we’re both on the same page and love each other and are united as a fam, the DHS won’t tell me about psch/exams for my 2 oldest boys because they are my stepsons. And not under my custody, only joint between their mom n dad. Even though I’ve known them for 6 yrs. Everytime I see my children, it’s 2 hrs a week in the veiwing room where they study you like a lab rat and make notes. This I can swallow for the sake of my kids being at home. The room has toys and my daughter loves them, and I get to see my yougest boy. He rolled over for me and gets bigger every day. My daughter says the word “ok” now. All these things I miss cause they grow so fast and I have no say in the matter. The veiwing room bothers my older boys, and they constantly ask me when I’m coming home because they miss me so much. The state doesn’t care about the kids..what it comes down to is $$ and we all know it. Most of the ppl that have committed the most heinious of crimes anyway have never been in the system period. Remember the women who drowned her 7 kids in the tub? her husband worked for NASA? Or the girl that drowned her kids in the car in the lake and said that a black guy took her car with the kids in it? It’s too bad that they lock up people like the Christine family here in Oregon {look them up please} and charge them with kidnapping their own kids and give em 15 yrs a peice in the state pen and not even consider adopting the kids out to family members. The children are seperated, and living in foster homes. THESE DOGS NEED TO BE LEASHED. They are like Kellogs Brown and Root, or Blackwater over in Iraq. They weild tremendous power, and function in a grey realm, one where they hold all the cards and make the rules. They dangle your children in front of you. If you don’t oblige or you resist..they take your kids away. I was told by my retained/paid for attorney that if I wanted to fight the case, which it gets split in 2 btw. It would be a year before I ever saw the trial and most ppl don’t want to go that long being without their kids. He was right. That’s why I’m jumping through the hoops. Not only that but so far since I can’t go home, I’m paying rent and all the bills for home, plus rent at the Best Western in Saint Helens where I’m staying..plus $$ for her attorney and $$ for my attorney plus these “mandated workshop” fees. I know we’re over 10k now, easily. So this $$ gets taken for which I could have supported the children with and gets spent on the state. Speaking of that, I am going to become an activest on behalf of Family Rights and am going to find a way to begin some kind of “workshops” where we can educate ourselves, and others about the law, and reveiw case law to better shield ourselves from appointed attorneys or ones that are retained but don’t want to step on any toes. And for ppl that want to know, as was written above by someone, the judges rule with the DHS most always. And to take your case to trial usually costs about 4k plus whatever your origional retainer fee was. An expert witness goes for about 2-3k per witness. Go with the appointed attorney unless you want to fight it, and if you want to fight it..my suggestion..get an out of town lawyer. More $$ for travel time though. But with workshops and us all getting togeather, we can tell our public pretenders how to handle the case with our gleaned knowledge and also if we want throw in some $$ for a class action suit to take these bastards to trial. Hit em where it hurts, in their pocket. Oh yeah, Maybe Sam Adams could help, unless he’s busy with the “boys” basketball team or trying to make the Boy Scouts of America pay fines for not letting faggots be team leaders.
People, Dont you understand the any government worker is not your friend exspecaily DHS
Do not ever let these people into your house. they will take your children & sell them or worse.
then charge you for it..Florida & Oklahoma is the worse….check out INFOWARS.COM to find out whats really going on.
I am the “Orange County” mom who waged a judicial war against O.C. social services. Although my litigation was successful, not surprisingly the agency continues to refuse to take responsibility. The county has appealed my decision and my attorney is filing our response to their charges tomorrow.
One needs super human strength when one chooses to challenge this very powerful agency but I know of no stronger force than the response of a parent who has been wrongfully separated from their children. If you have innocence on your side, you must prevail.
I would like to encourage those of you who are determined to fight and I salute you for your courage. Welcome to the club of those who refuse to allow evil to succeed. I am sorry for your circumstances and I extend my prayers to you and yours for a successful outcome.
Sincerely,
Deanna Fogarty Hardwick
It is even worse over in West Tennessee especially in Lauderdale, Fayette, and Tennessee. No offense to the ladies,but if you are a father over here, you are screwed. It is guilty until proven innocent. In my particular case, there is zero evidence, not a lick because it never happened. My attorney said it is the most ridiculous DCS case he has ever seen, yet months later, I have had zero contact with my child because the courtdate keeps getting pushed back. Let me over some advice to all of you reading this based on my experiences and something I read that another West Tennessee father is going through (there are a lot of us)
1-If you are innocent admit to nothing.
2-Do not let them threaten you with parenting classes, etc. Even if you agree to “keep your child” they can still go after you.
3-Hire an attorney and try not to let it be a legal aid attorney.
Hire one that hates DCS, they are out there.
4-Write down everything.
5-If an ex is involved in setting you up, don’t turn the other cheek. Get down in the mud with them.
6-Sometimes they will call the police. You do not have to talk to the police.
7-Do not agree to a lie detector test even if you are innocent and let me explain why. They will tell you they are not allowed in court. That is a trick. First, innocent people sometimes fail polygraph test due to nerves. If you fail, even though they claim it can’t be used, don’t think it won’t be brought up. If you do pass, they will claim it doesn’t mean anything.
8-As mad as you are, keep your cool.
Sorry I meant to say Tipton County. It is extremely corrupt here.
By the way I have started a petition that I hope you will sign. Some people have already signed and read the horror stories many have posted about. It is ridiculous. http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/revamp-childrens-services-in-the-state-of-tennessee

Can you do anything with this?
I sent this to Health Connect America who did the Parenting Assessment for DCS/CPS here in Williamson County. I truly have proof that it was changed. I called the Governor’s Office and forward a letter to him, the First Lady, and Congresswoman Blackburn. Then I forward copies of letters that I sent to the people named above. I told them that after I finish writing all the government officials and committees, then I start on the television stations.
We have proof that my original assessment was altered by DCS in Williamson County. I need to get a copy of the unaltered assessment done by Donna Houston, MA. We do not suspect that the assessment was changed by Ms. Houston. The education level of the incriminating sentences were done by someone with at least four years more education. This lie has turned my life upside down and have put my baby in a situation of someone who doesn’t care about his emotional, health, developmental regression during this horrible time.
Our suspicion is the report was altered by Helen Tomasulo, LMSW, Program Coordinator/Clinical Supervisor at the suggestion of Bethany Pinkerton or her supervisor, Donna (last name unknown).
There are other proof showing that the statement were inserted.into the original report. We need the original emailed to Leah Grayson at legrayson@gmail.com send or to the mother, Mrs. Georgia M. Ave-Lallemant at walkergm@gmail.com. Please do not forward my email or bring this request to Ms. Tomasulo’s attention who in term will notify the local DCS. I need this info ASAP this morning. My child is already damaged and hurt. Thissituation concerns white child adopted by black mother.
The original problem with DCS was solved the same week, but they took it to court based on your assessment. Also, I need to remind you that only one of the statement below ever happened. I met with the therapist one time in an outside cafe.

Our case is so similar to alot of cases. My boyfriend and I got into one fight, and now my children have been stolen from me by CPS for over 7 months now. The CPS investigator threatened that “If you don’t sign it, I’ll get the judge to order it!” “IT” was his “safety” plan kidnapping my children from me. We are forced into taking their parenting classes even though we aced their parenting tests, The caseworker lied about my not having attended Domestic Violence counseling, I have done some research and found a federal court judge ruled it an illegal and unconstitutional practice for CPS to remove children based on domestic violence of which I still ask were is the domestic violence/abuse. We had a fight, maybe not so great, but one mistake does not constitute this cruel and unusual punishment. We get drop in supervised visits and my girls are practically begging the worker to come home each time they see her. The caseworker has been in contempt of court. The very day after the judge ordered unsupervised visits for me with my girls, she told me I’d still have to have one supervised visit a week. She is bias with my ex mother in law, to the point even my ex husband says he is angry she doesn’t involve him in her visits with the girls to “see” how “they” are doing. He is the one with temporary custody of them, until “goal” is they be returned home. So even he sees she is being bias. The CPS investigator is openly gay and tells how he is a Child Protective Services worker on his myspace pages. Forgive me if you think I am wrong here, but that is just plain wrong. UnGODly!! The caseworker’s conduct has be so inappropriate she goes to the lengths of telling me that I’d save money on attorneys fees if I’d just talk to her. Now, again if I am wrong….what business does she have concerning herself with my proffesional relationship with my attorney? And sounds to me like she wants me to talk to her so she has my words to twist against me, and it makes her angry that she is not getting them. She can’t use my words or my attitude towards her against me, and that makes her mad. My attorney is useless, a CPS lackey. She should have immediately had me rescind my signiture to that “safety” plan and demanded my children and even told him I was going to pick my children up and take them home, and to not give her any bullshit excuses, because we were going to make sure that his abuse of power, unauthorized practice of law, and threatening ass was nailed to the wall. She should have fought this, and knew that my children were taken from me without DUE PROCESS OF THE LAW, withought proof of imminent danger, reasonable efforts (which is more than just a check in a box some GAY cps investigator makes, because he’s butt hurt we told him he couldn’t interview my children, and we were getting an attonrey). Our constitutional rights are violated, my parental rights, the rights of my children, lies have been told, all this bullshit. We need help, and We want to sue!!!!!! mpo2624@yahooo.com
Further more, I’d like to add they have been stolen from me without any proof of abuse or neglect, infact after 7 months of this they know by now my girls are not abused children. They even said in the last family team meeting that there were no more safety concerns. We have the right to live without government intrusion into our lives, we have the right to live secure in our persons, my children have the right to live with their mother, and have the right not to fear their baby sister is forgetting who they are. I have the right to expect my children live with me, and to parent my children any way I see fit. We have done everything, and continue to do everything, so why haven’t they been returned, and why do judges and attorneys allow this to go on. They must know our rights are violated?
I am an attorney in Brentwood TN and an aggressive advocate for the right to parent without state interference.
DCS hates me….I challenge them at every turn. I am having to face retaliation by a justice system that often loosing sight of the rights of parents and children.
I have one suit pending in Federal Court against Wmson County Juvenile Court and DCS. I am interested in cases involving abuses in the system, especially in Davidson and Wmson County.

I live in Illinois. I grew up as a foster child, in some of the worst imaginable homes. While in foster care I and some of my foster sisters were forced into abortions against our beliefs. We were sent alone by bus, out of state.
A few years later out of child and family service care, while working at a grade school as a clerical/teachers aide, I was told by a caseworker and her friend that ran BabyFold ( a state ran adoption agency)that I had to give my baby up for adoption. I was given prenatal care by the BabyFold workers husband. My baby was born and the doctor did not deliver my baby, however the caseworker and BabyFold worker came to my hospital room to enforce the adoption. The hospital medical reports have alot of descrepancies, place marked out and taped over. Medications that I was not aware of were given to me. And the medical doctor (husband of the BabyFold worker) signature of delivery.
Recently my son, the child that remained in my custody over the years, just went through having to sign the *putative fathers registry when his exgirlfriend became pregnant with their 4th born son. This registry is also a part of child and family services. They were supposed to have contacted my son if the child was to been given up for adoption, this never happened. We were very fortunate though and was able to block the adoption, my son now has custody of his son, but the heartache we all went through, to have to relive the adoption of my child, I would be honest if I said Child and Family Services made mine and my childrens, and now my grandchildrens lives a living nightmare.
I am a father just back from the military. while serving overseas my children were taken from my ex-wife due to abuse. they were placed in the care of my ex’s father a convicted felon, and I was never once notified by the child protective services. they were then a month later returned to my ex’s house just so they could be taken again 3 months later for the same charge. once again they failed to inform me of the seizure of my children. they went to two different foster homes and were out of the care of my ex for three weeks before my family was notified. once being notified my family tried to send out a red cross message to notify me of what was going on with the children. the TX CPS when contacted for conformation from red cross told them that I need not be involved and that I did not need to be notified. twice my parental rights where stripped and never once did I hear from a CPS agent ultimately costing me my military career. I had to be discharged from active duty to come back home and get custody of my children because they refused to inform me of the danger that my children were in. I am looking for a lawyer to represent me against the cps in a lawsuit or in starting up a class action suit against them but as of now have not found a lawyer in the state of TX brave enough to take them on. If you know of any capable lawyers in the state of TX please leave me an email. thanks. isaiahc4@yahoo.com
This is happening all over the country. There are some parents that live in their cars, in tents at friend’s garage. There are state monies to aid with food and somehow we can all find clothes from the church donation, or neighbor that has a child that grew out of them while we try to get back on our feet…after the mortgage company foreclosed, or whatever the personal situation is.
The fact remains that the states sees this as an injustice to our children, and is breaking the law (4th and 14th amendment…among others in many cases) by removing our children from loving and caring parents EVERYWHERE, and the numbers are skyrocketing everyday!!!
My daughter (13) thought it would be more “fun” to stay at a friend’s house with a pool and her friend’s mother – nosey neighbor who would buy her new clothes and offering to buy her dance lessons because we could not afford it. What 13yo wouldn’t want that? This woman’s name is ALEXIS SMITH, AND RESIDES IN DAVIDSON COUNTY, NASHVILLE, TN 37212. Ms. Smith made a call to TN DHS and the police department to report that I neglect my daughter whom I have independently raised for 13 years and homeschooled for most of her education. As a result and although the case was unfounded by the Judge three months later, it has now been 5 months since I have seen her as she was “placed” or “given away” by the bio dead beat father, to a relative who I do not have any contact with. Despite the Judge dropping all Ms. Smiths false allegations, DHS upheld them without reason. As a result, I still do not have custody.
DHS “founded” me on three accounts:
Unsupervised child (I let my 13yo have a sleepover at Ms. Smith’s home)
Child abuse (however they cannot explain to me what I did)
Sexual Exploitation (this was made up by the neighbor and DHS fell for it)
Custody and the reuniting of my daughter has not happened and the state has made NO efforts to assist in reunification although the Judge ordered it. Hard to do when you send my DD to another state and I do not have the gas money to visit 5 hours away (or the insurance or tags).
SO, here is what is referred to as “PARENTIAL ALLIENATION”. That is the normal process in which a child, such as mine, will go through, as she has a new school, new friends and is not interested in what’s “right” by returning home, only what is more fun for her right now. My 13yo sweetheart is driving the bus and the state is letting her. Since when can a 13yo child make such decisions? I wanted to run away when I was 13 as well, which is EXACTLY what the state has helped my little girl along with a pat on her back stating “you did the right thing”. Sub sequentially, she can call and have contact with Ms. Smith who instigated this entire false fiasco, whenever she wants.
Thanks Tennessee (Davidson County).

I NEED SOME HELP!!!!My 2 children were recentlt removed from my home by DCS.This came about because my husband had a warrant when the cops came they searched my house and found prescription pain killers that he had without a prescription.My husband went to jail that night and i knew nothing about the pain killers.While the cops were at my house they asked me multiple questions about different alleged drug dealers in my area.Drugs are not part of my life so i had no information for them so they seemed sngry and called dcs.DCS REMOVED MY CHILDREN FROM MY HOME BECAUSE MY HUSBAND (NOT I) THAT WENT TO JAIL HAD THE PAIN KILLERS IN MY HOME!!!DCS REMOVED MY CHILDREN WITHOUT GIVING ME A DRUG TEST!!!!THE DCS CASEWORKER THEY SENT SAID SHE WOULD BE BACK THE FOLLOWING DAY TO DRUG TEST ME…I KNEW FOR SURE I WOULD HAVE MY BABIES BACK WHEN I PASSED IT……NOW ITS ALMOST 2 WEEKS LATER AND I HAVE YET TO HAVE A DRUG TEST!!!!My babies are still not home with me.I am a stay at home mother i devote every breath i take to taking care of my babies.My husband might have made a mistake but he is a great father to my children.I know what he did is not ok but is it ok to tear a family apart over it??WHAT ARE MY RIGHTS AS A PARENT???I AM STUNNED THAT THERE ARE NO LAWS PROTECTING PEOPLE FROM DCS!!!!MY CHILDREN WERE NEVER IN ANY KIND OF DANGER!!!SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!!MY EMAIL IS nikki_agee@myspace.com
My story is a little different. I can’t DCS to do their job. Everyone else is complaining about them taking their kids without just reasons, and most are rightfully so. However, my 17 year old needs to be removed; but they refuse to step in. My ex has never hit him or done any physical abuse at all…but the mental/emonital abuse is 10 times worse. We followed the advice of the courts to get them involved only for them to close the case….even after our son a mental breakdown in the court house because the judge told him he would have to live with his mother for the time being. DCS also told us outside of her beating him or atempting to kill him he would not be removed. We hear we are two months later and now he tried to set the high school on fire…….she refuses to get him counseling of any sort, so the courts ordered. I have been trying to get custody of him now for almost 6 months and we have gone no where in the courts. DCS was a waste of time and energy on our part and only hampered our efforts. I also believe that office under a murder investigation…..they are a waste.
I could go on and on with all this info on my ex, but i just don’t see the point….no one seems to care.
CPS/DHS CANNOT be fixed. The corruption is way too deep. If you want to know the truth, follow the money. Follow the MONEY. Too many people are making too much money off trafficking children. CPS and the courts ARE trafficking children. Are there abused children? Yes. 19,500 children last year in Michigan alone? No chance!!! I have met too many parents that have lost their children who I know are not guilty of abuse. Children are worth money to the state. Title IV social security money to be more specific. CPS and the corrupt courts must be exposed. This has to be one of the best kept dirty secrets in America today.
I AM DISABLED MOTHER THAT GOT INTO A FIGHT WITH MY 22 YR OLD NOW DCS TOOK MY DAUGHTER AND I HAVE DONE EVEYTHING THE COURT HAS ORDERED ME TO DO NOW DCS IS TRYING TO KEEP MY INFANT DAUGHTER WAY FROM ME FOR 3 TO 6 MORE MONTHS.

See the above three part series that ran on WSMV Channel 4
the past week….2/9 2/10 and 2/11 2010.
Around the week of Jan 15, 2010, the CPS caseworker submitted to the court to have my child returned. I knew nothing of this until court day, Feb 02, 2010. Around Jan. 20, 2010, the GAL filed a restraining order against me stating that I burnt my child’s hand during an unsupervised visit (NOTE: I have had unsupervised visit for approximately 5 months without any complaints). The local police dectective investigated this claim and found it unfounded. My child was not taken to a doctor. No pictures were taken. There was no evident of a burn or anything on my child’s hand two days later. My child is proned to rashes and has ezcema. He has been taken to the doctor, while in my care, several times about these bad rashes.
The GAL contacted the foster mother that CPS has requested that my child be returned. A restraining order was made that I not see my child. Approximately, four pages was filed with the court by GAL filled with lies about what was going on with my child during unsupervised visits, i.e. that I allowed him to play in a busy street unsupervised, I locked him out of the door naked, I gave him ‘Nyquil,’ I slept during his 3-hour visit, etc.
In court, the judge revisited the burn issue and found me guilty of burning my child and accepted all the allegation presented by my child’s GAL and foster mother as the truth. I had to prove lies were untrue. How do you do this?
This all was made up to stop my child from returning home because the foster mother wants to adopt him. The foster mother stood up in court eight months early and told the judge that she wants to adopt him.
I am black and my son is white. The foster parents are white and the judge has been pushing to give him over to the foster family from day one.
CPS is fighting hard for me, but is going up against a brick wall built by the judge, GAL (who has never met with me, or seen me and my child together), and the foster mother.
The judge ordered CPS to change the Permanancy Plan from ‘return to mother’ to ‘return to mother and adoption.’
I have complied with EVERYTHING asked of me within five months since this started. I can only see my child once a week for 2-hours. I have never exceeded once a week. I did get once a week for 3-hours unsupervised.
I have requested that CPS remove my child from his present placement to another foster family who holds no connection with the foster parents or the school (the foster mother works at the school). God knows, I hate moving my child to stranger, but if I don’t I have no chance of getting my child back.
Is there any way, I can request that the GAL be changed since his decisions are based on his hatred for me rather than the welfare of my child? My court appointed lawyer is useless.
What happened to innocent until proven guilty? This does not apply to these cases?
Please, I need help. I am one against these people.
Yes, The Tennessee Department of Children’s Services has violated many laws and continues to do so in many of their unwanted and unreasonable interventions. If they target You, I think, that Your best hope is to get an aggressive and competent lawyer from outside of your local area. Lawyers, judges, DCS, counselors and all of their buddies work TOGETHER TO FURTHER their personal financial and political interests. Your innocense is irrevelant to them. IN our case, I found, through internal DCS documents, that our case worker had an extensive [felony and misdemeanor] criminal record, violated DCS policies and his DCS superviser stated that he made false statements about children and parents he interviewed in his reports. The documents showed that he was suspended for these acts. After DCS Commissioner, Viola Miller was informed about his criminal record and we provided info showing that he violated over 20 of their procedures, he resigned during a pending disciplinary action against him according to Viola Miller. Two weeks days later, We were charged criminally based only upon the info He had supplied to police. This info continues to cause us unlawful and substantial injuries and harm. If they target You be prepared. Unless You have alot of money, political connections or are lucky enough to hire a lawyer who will not work against You at the beginning before your money runs out, they will cause You a great deal of damages. It doesn’t matter if it is all based upon false info, perjury and violations of your legal Rights. There are enough laws in effect to protect parents from their unlawful actions. However, the Gov’t officials simply disregard and violate those laws. They will harm You and appear to enjoy doing so in the process. These Statements are based upon my opinion and supported by my Constitutionally guaranteed rights. (Amends. 1,9 $ 14, U.S. Const.)
My 9 children were taken by the state of tennessee 11 months ago I have gone above and beyond thier expectations they keep opening cps investigations and filling my kids heads with lies as long as a cps inv. is open we cant move forward in court. well how convienent the day before court dates they open a new case only to be unfounded. I have not messed up one time but for some reason they dont want to give me all of my kids back they gave me the oldest two back and if I am so unfit then why do I have two? And how do I explain to my younger kids that thier older siblings are home but they have to continue to stay with strangers? This is getting so ridiculuos. The fact that all of my requirements were finished 8 months ago doesnt even count we go into court just to hear o a new cps inv. is open and then i cant even hear the allegations i am going to do something I plan to contact Phi Bredesen Governor of TN if this gets me nowhere then I plan to go even further to Washington if I have to this is unacceptable to me and I refuse to put up with it any longer. something must be done with these people they cant have al of these so called rights and just take ours away.
I am in a different situation. CPS wants to give my baby back but it is the Referee Sharon Guffee and GAL Robert Plummer based on lies by the foster mother, who wants to adopt my child, stops the process of reunification. The court believes every lie she tells. The last time I had a police detective investigating an allegation made by foster parents.
This family is only after money. They have three children of their own. Why at this points when your children are going into their teens would you want to start off with practically a baby.
They take LIES from one party, the foster parent, to continue to keep my baby hostile while huge amount of child support is accumulating every month.
Evident should not be presented in court and taken as the truth without efforts to verify the truth. IN THIS COURT YOU ARE A LIAR UNTIL YOU CAN PROVE THE LIE IS THE THE NOT TRUE.
Someone needs to include the Judges, Referees, CASA, and GAL in this investigation.
I have read all these stories and my heart and prayers go out to all of you and your families. My children have been removed from me the first time their father’s sister wanted custody of my first son. I fought tooth to nail with Fl state and recieved my son back. It was 5 months after he was in her custody and DCS had promised to give her addoption rights to my son. I moved away from her and there as soon as I was legally able to. After the downfall of the economy I had lost my job. And there are still no jobs available. Their father’s sister took this as an opportunity to react again. This time bringing my mother into the situation she conviced my mother that I was on drugs and to say that I abandoned my children while they were vacationing with my mother for the summer. My mother went to court and recieved custody of my children. I was never notified in any way shape or form that any of this was happening while I was speaking to her and my children on an almost daily basis. When I went to pick up my children I was unable to leave with them and my mother tried to have my arrested twice. She was told by the sister to get a restaining order against me and to make sure to put my childrens names on it so I wouldn’t be able to be near them. Then my children were removed from the state to be with the sister for a month until I was able to appear in court. The judge put my children into foster care until I was able to have an attorney drop the order. When things began to come out in the wash my mother had realized what a horrible mistake she had made and tried to keep the children in her custody until they could be returned to me but the courts denied her claiming that she divested custody and she does not have good health. The DCS department had falsified drug screenings and when I recieved a hair falical test everything came up negative. But they are still claiming that my screens are positive. I agreed to coroperate with an A&D assessment and when the final conclusion came in to their possession it was faulisified as well. They documentation was sign by someone other than the counciler that I seen and the counclusion said that I need futher drug testing and education that was not what I was told during this assessment. By Bradford Health Service in Chattanooga TN. They have asked my to retake classes that I have already uptained my certificates for saying that I have violated my completions. They threaten me on a weekly basis in front of my children during my supervised visits and I have request and demanded that my children be kept away from these proceedings for their own emotional and mental wellbeeing. My lawyer of course is court appointed so it’s been hell to make him do anything in defense. He allows them to voilate me even in the court room and allows them to lie on the stand without any objection in my defense. I have court again in the morning and I am so unsure of what I should do next. My children have been completely tramatised by the department that they now suffer from PTDS and it has taken me months to finally get them to see a counciler that they refuse to allow me to have any contact with to find out how my children are doing. My boys are only 3 and 4 years of age. My oldest son was so advanced in headstart and now he can’t even write his first name anymore. He has a nickname JJ and he’s writing the J’s backwards. This has been the 3rd foster home they have been in within a 3 month span and they are threatening my children not to tell my what is going on at the home or school. My oldest son was punished my the foster mom then DCS claimed that he was sick so I was unable to see him during one of my visits. My son now has a slight bruise on his face in the shape of a hand print and when questioned about it told me that he could not tell me or they won’t allow him to see me. My youngest son begs me in every visit to take him home to my home. I need an attorney one that is willing to fight for my right and take the DCS abusive system on in a full lawsuit. I want my children back home and safe again. The whole entire system needs to have a Internal Affairs department, any goverment operation that has the power to abuse children and tear them away from loving parents(My fionce and I) should have someone to answer to. If there is an attorney’s out there with the balls to fight for justice against these criminals please contact me asap at Dsweetthing21@yahoo.com
have you contacted legal aid? Also, do you have an attorney?
Your attorney can file an appeal in Circuit Court for the return of your kids.
You are in TN, correct?

I am reading all of these horror stories and felt that I had to add mine. I was living in Iowa for about a month when my daughter accidently fell off the bed and broke her leg. She was 18 months old at the time. I have never in my life even smacked my kids butts, let alone beat them. I immediatly rushed her to the hospital where they told me that she would have a full body scan, as routine checked. i thought nothnig of this, as I was a first time mom of twins. The scan came back nothnig wrong in any other places on her body. This was July 1, 2006. On July 3, me and my now psychotic X, got a phonecall, we were at the hospital, that the sherriff and a DHS worker were there to take my son to foster care., I went BALISTIC. I was crying, yelling, screaming, and totally dumbfoundeIt was the WORST July 4th you can imagine. That wed. I hired a lawyer and DHS told me that I wouldn’t get my twins back for 20-30 days. I stated over my dead body. I found the best lawyer that I could find and told her the story. She immediatly contacted DHS and my kids were returned to me within 1 day. The judge stated that DHS was wrong although DHS never admitted it. Well, that is only the beginning of the story. It turns out that in the small little town that we were living in, the DHS worker was having an affair with the police officer that took away my son. The reason they took my son away is so they could have an excuse for having this affair. It was a good way for them to be together. I tried to sue, but could not find anyone to take on the case of DHS. Just figured I would share…
OMG I can’t believe I found this forum. My experience with DCS was 3 years ago. My daughter is now 20. This experience has destroyed the person I was. I don’t know if the nightmares and panic attacks will ever end. I would love to sue but don’t know where to start. DCS is out of control because no one watches over them. I have asked time and time again to meet with the people that make DCS policies. No one seems to know who that is. I contacted the governor’s office many times. I was finally able to meet with DCS commissioner Viola Miller. She was nice but, just would not believe the things I told her were happening were true
From time to time I come out fighting. Then I have to take a break from the wall of arrogance and pain and retreat. I want so much to make a difference. DCS should not be allowed to destroy families.
It is usually to tell your stories. No one gives a crap. The state doesn’t, the president doesn’t, and the world doesn’t! It is meanless to spend years, decades of your lives hitting your head against the wall dealing with a system that has no rules, but make them up to suit them.
Your children are gone… forever. You might as well realize that before you lose your mind and everything that you own.
Unless you can afford a private lawyer, which 99.99% us can’t or we won’t be crying on this board.
There will be no reform. There will be no justice. NO ONE CARES! Might as well let them go and pray that they don’t remember that they had a mother, dad, cousins, aunts, uncles, etc.
You all know that I am telling the truth. Holding on to false hope just destroys everyone around you. We are in Nazi hell….WE HAVE NO RIGHTS!!
The only thing that matters are the number of lies the judge, dcs, cps, foster parents, GAL, and Casa can spin so that they can adopt your children out over and over again and get federal funds for them over and over again while milking you out of every cent you have for child support paid to the state who is paid by the federal government.
It is a vicious cycle and you all are fools to continue to stay in the spin cycle.
Who the hell do you think you are to suggest a parent not fight tooth and nail for their own child. DHS will hire you, you just need to have a numbing mindless demeanor.
We are not fools. You, however…and on, and on, and on, from everyone that had to read such an stupid post from you LivingHell.

I suggest you completely read this and see how much of it applies in your case. If there have been things not followed report it to the Brian A monitor Brian A. Monitor Cordell Hull Building, 7th Floor 436 6th Ave. N Nashville, TN 37243 (615) 532-5034 No. 3-00-0445U.S. District CourtMiddle District of TennesseeNashville Division [...]
Why send me this DCS? DCS doesn’t care about laws even ones that they set down for themselves. I called this division of DCS ‘Green Team’ which is support to monitor complaints about foster parents.
This foster parent had everything that happens in meetings and courts with my son’s name on Facebook. One bit explained how she was going to stop CPS from returning my child.
The next day I get a restrainting order to cease visitation because foster parents reported that I hell my son’s hand under scalding burning water on that week’s unsupervised visitation. The call was made to the GAL. No proof, no doctor and I was founded guilty. Not to meantion that in less than 15 hours nothing was left on his hand. No scaring, reddness, blisters, bumps, nothing. He has eczema! But they did want to hear this although I had told them many times.
CPS and Spring Hill dectectives unfounded, but the judge told me in my face that she believed that I did. I lost my unsupervised visitation. The judge ordered the Permanancy Plan to be redone to ‘adoption/parent.’ This is the second Permanancy Plan that I have completed.
Going to court tomorrow, a third will probably be ordered.
I called the Legislative and Constituent Services (LCS) to make a complaint about the foster parents’ continuing interference with reunification of child and parent. He told me that it was the foster parent’s right of freedom of speech.
IT IS ONE BIG GAME WITH THE WHOLE SYSTEM!
I recently had my newborn son taken from me on alligations of me moveing around too much he wasnt even 3 days old and they just walked in and took him
I live in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, august 18, 2010, I went to my arrainment. June 2nd there was a domestic violence issue with me and my husband, on July 2nd I was told by Child Protective services that me and my children were court ordered to attend classes and if we didn’t then they would take my children. She didn’t tell me that she was filing a dependency case. I recently found out that me and my husband was being charged for neglect and the papers said that if we didn’t attend court then we would lose custody of our children. I have been homeschooling since September 2009, and I was told by ChildNet that I can’t homeschool, and during the arrainment the Judge took away my husband’s parenal rights. It’s crazy and it makes you angry. They come into your home and basically control your life. It’s not right. Does anyone know of any lawyers in Ft.Lauderdale so that I can file a lawsuit?

My hell with dcfs started 5 years ago, when my mother reported me because my boyfriend and i had got in a fight. My child was asleep at the time. though i know thats still not ok, it was not serious enough for a report. the worker made a safety plan saying my child was to go to my mothers til he was done investigating. my mother would not let me stay with him. two days later i went to pick my son up from day care and they wouldnt let me take him. I called dcfs and they had had a hearing with out me that morning,claiming that i had abandoned my child. That was the service plan, hello!! at the time i was pregnant. I began taking all these classes they wanted me to do. parenting, domestic violence, i had 6 drug and alcohol classes a week, and i never did drugs or drank.What? a few months later my daughter was born and the investigator came to the hospital. she talked to me and the next day a worker came and took my baby. in court the investigator claimed that i had a bruise on my arm, and that i had told her my boyfriend beat me up. excuse me you just took one child even if something had happened to me i wouldnt be telling you. she described the location of the bruise as
being on my right bicep which when showed to the court is covered with a tatoo. then she said that it must have been on the other arm which is also covered by a tatoo. the judge still ruled in thier favor. after a whole year and a half of hell, classes, forking out money, everything seemed to be going good. i had another child whom i was allowed to keep. it seemed like they were coming home. i was done with everything they asked me to do and my boyfriend also. a week before my sons first birthday, they came and took him to the same place that my daughter was for risk of harm. not to mention the whole time i had him the foster care agency was reporting me every other week for something. within a month my rights were terminated on the other two children. and two months later on my baby. Come to find out the woman who adopted my children has several other adopted children and is a close friend with the judge that ruled over my case. they even go to church together. tell me what i can do about this?
I have read and can relate to most of your stories, I am a mother from Williamson County Tennessee and have had my 13year old son stolen away from me as well. Carla Newman his DCS case manager, Brian Willkins her teamleader as well as Keith and Cindy Gott the resources parents have conjoined together to lie and manipulate everyone and thing they have come in to contact with. My family and I have searched high and low to find some kind of help and have no returned calls from any attorney. I have participated with DCS to do any and all they have asked of me. My family has been lied on and harrased, please somone help us we can’t take anymore. WE NEED HELP! Our Best Wishes To All Of You

Hello My name is Mrs. Susan Lynn Sievert I am a concerned mother of Lawrance scott Sievert my son My husband’s name is Richard Scott Sievert We 1 had a horrible experience at St. Margarets hospital in spring valley illinois my I went in because I was pregnant with my son Lawrance, First off we where planning a natural birth, So that I could be more useful and beneficial to our new born child. ‘Everything was going as planned until they started whispering to one another we where there waiting to see if the dilation was sufficient to give birth to our son. We wanted to wait for my water to break naturally that was our original plan. ‘My sister In Law also interfered with our own wishes, saying the doctors knows best repeating it to my husband time and time again any time he spoke we did not go there to have an induced labor. ‘After they returned from saying the dilation was four ten minutes later they had this awfully fat woman check it again, I have her picture she said it was a 8 my husband questioned that and there reply was so fast and fuzzy that we couldnt understand them. Now i am a licensed CNA and i know enough about child birth from the videos i watch and from the things i studied that a four dilation cannot go to an 8 dilation in htat amount of time, and also know a woman’s uterus cannot open that quickly and they proceeded without asking us on the induction! I was traumatized my sister In Law kept saying they know best my husband recorded this ordeal and got a call from a friend and so he being a concerned father that he objected to the way they did this whole planed c section and left. He did not threaten anyone he did not touch anyone or me the wife or our unborn son, ‘Lawrance Scott Sievert. He did not try to stop the doctor or the nurses he did not lay a hand on anyone he just went to our truck and had a cigarette, ‘He started smoking over this traumatic experience but now has quit again.’Richard was not putting my life in danger or my child, he did not try to stop anyone from there procedures. ‘No they did not respect our wishes. This was not my sisters son this is our child and they know they are wrong. And they are the ones that placed my sons life in danger for trying to force me to push my son through a four inch dilation. ‘Now with all the living proof how can anyone say that Richard put my unborn child or my life in any danger? Their is a mark on our sons forehead that is living proof they tried to get me to push my son through a four inch dilation. ‘I am concerned that this hospital is inducing women like myself to get more money from DSHS that is my reason for writing you. ‘Also they filed a report on my husband with CPS just because he said he objected to the procedure. ‘I do not want to sue anyone but if that stops this hospital from doing this to other couples than we will. All I want is this hospital to be investigated for falsely inducing women that originally wanted a natural birth! My experience at the hospital was horrible and i would not ever recommend anybody to go to that hospital for the way they treated me and my husband Richard Scott Sievert and our now living child Lawrance Scott Sievert.
Now a far as them following the base rules I have seen them say one thing and do another say they are on our side than find us at fault with every false charge I am not exactly sure what there end game is but I know it is not for us to keep our little lawrance However I could be wrong laws are so messed up because of the way they where wrote concerning people receiving state money! Them that just possibly they are trying to protect us! ‘If I am right they will be rewarded something much more than a pay check if I am wrong they will inherit fire!
Amen’ However this comes out the hospital started this case on me for the wrong reason, ‘I was trying to protect the wishes of my wife, to have a natural birth! ‘I have started my own class action lawsuit if, ‘Brian does not pursue this I will never forget this go to care2.com and search petitions under 100 billion dollars! thats my son and our case!
‘Thank you all good luck I am a friend of light*
I would move from that state everyone find another place to move to come to illinois here the heavens here me!
“Amen’
‘Wherever I go, greater will be the place that greets me, ‘Only trouble can bring trouble, only love will bring love, ‘Know true wisdom or do not ever say I am part of your body when your so dried out your soul’s are like dust!
I have placed the whole state of, ‘Tennessee in my little black book!
I have placed the whole state of, ‘Tennessee in my little black book!
Amen

State of Tenessee DCS,CPS, Judges all try to bring good parents down to move their selves up. My nephew was raped by his mothers boyfriends soon but nothing was done because the mother decided to not press charges. Thye case was dropped with proof of the rape. The 5 year old boy had the 19 year old punks sperm on his clothes from the 5 yr old spitint the sperm out of his mouth. My nephew was told by CPS worker they would remove him from his mother if he told anyone about what happen. the mother and CPS workers are friends. GO FIGURE TENNESSEE OUT.
I am a parent of three children in Arkansas, and I am desperately seeking help. I haven’t been able to find an attorney willing to go up against DHS.After I was beaten severly by my birth mother I was removed from the home and placed into states custody at age 9,I lived in Youth Home for nearly four years until Bio-mom learned they had gotten me on SSI, I had no idea of any of it she went to court faught to get me back, we left the court house and she dumped me on a relative, I eventually lived on the streets until I dropped out of school and went to work and supported myself, while I later find out she collected three years of back pay and drew a check on me until I was nearly 18 when I found out and reported her. Well the story doesn’t end here, my brother whom I have very little contact with calls me, his girlfriend goes to have their third child and the baby tested for meth, so DHS takes away all three children so he begs me to get custody which I do and for a year I raise six kids with no help, because I went through the court to get custody, I was not entitled to get any kind of aid so my bio-mom is pissed that DHS would not allow her to get custody because her husband is the man who had beaten me as a child and caused me to be removed from the home, so she begins to attack me any way she can, calling DHS constently making false accusations about me trying to get the kids removed. A year goes by when my oldest daughter who was sixteen at the time, was very jealous of the time I spent with my brothers new born baby, nine month old, and five year old, her grades began slipping and she began hiding things from me,I was doing laundry one evening and find a summons to appear in court where she had been arrested, and her grandmother signed as her parent, I was furious called her grandmother and told her she was n longer allowed to take my child any where, then I took my daughter’s cell phone away and grounded her, and assumed that was the end of it well I was wrong. The next day my daughter goes to school and runs away well after searching every where I know to look, I went to the police, they find her four towns away with her great grandmother who had signed as her parent when she was arrested. The grandmother had been contacted by police and she had lied to them, cussed them out and told them to come and find her so when they found them they placed her under arrest for kidnapping. Well the next thing I know she and my daughter come up with this story that I beat my child and she was afraid for her life, which I have never whipped or physically punished any child, being so that I was physically abused my whole childhood, my husband is a staff sergent and we used exercise to punish our kids such as front lean and rest, holding their arms out for 30 to 60 seconds, my husband was always in charge of the disappline in our home,so any way they asked if my daughter could stay the night with my bio mom so they could investigate, I agreed because I was told if I ddin’t they would put all my children into a foster home. The next day at 2pm DHS called me ,the school, my daughter, and bio-mom, and told us they were convinced my child had lied that she was to go home, well my child doesn’t come home again, well this time bio-mom takes off with her and takes her three towns away to a county judge she paints his house, get’s an exparte order giving her custody of my child, I got a lawyer finally get a court date and because DHS was not finished with their investigation I was given every weekend visitation of my child but by this point bio-mom has completely brainwashed my child into believeing that bio-mom was the one who raised my daughter from birth to 3rd grade, which because of the man who beat me as a child being in the home and all of the drugs going in and out I would not even let bio-mom see my children at her house, but she tells my daughter that her husband neer beat me that I was removed from the home because I went crazy, and so many other lies it was unreal well I try to tell my daughter the truth and show her documentation proving she was lied to, and my daughter attacks me, and even walks up to her mentally retarded little sister and shoves her to the ground, I call the police and they take pictures and tell me their is no jail for juvenilles and take her back early to bio-mom, this continues to go on excalatting each time my daughter trys all she can to get me to hit her, I believed she was cohereased to do so. I have paid my lawyer a $1000 bonus to try to hurry and get us into court, well a year goes by DHS has charged me with mental abuse because I asked my daughter during an intervention (where a lcensed counselor came to our house)to tell the truth and I cried my eyes out to my daughter and told her how badly what she was doing was hurting me. So two years I have been cooperating with DHS doing everything they say, my beautiful straight A daughter is now Pink haired, with five piercings on her mouth, smokes a pack a day, and is flunking out in school had two pregnancy scares and I’m considered the bad parent. Finally a year later I get a court date but guess what bio-mom and my daughter go to DHS and tell them I tried to kill myself in front of my kids and she had to wrestle a knife from me, DHS comes takes the other kids into bedrooms and question them none of us knew anything about the latest batch of crap they cooked up,so when that didn’t work my last visit before we go to court my daughter comes and screams and cusses and tells me she hates me and chases me and all the kids into my bedroom, my husband tells her to get out of our room and she threatens him she says just wait til I tell them what you did, I made her call bio-mom and leave I agree to give up my rights, because I can’t handle her, DHS was told to close the case by the judge, well they come out to the house once again to question my children, and granite it’s been over two years of them questioning my kids every two to three weeks, and they tell me that they are going to keep my case open another year because my mentally retarded and handicap child has missed eight days of school this school year and she is three days away from reaching her limit,THESE DAYS ARE excused by a doctor, she has physical illnesses that affect her ability to function. I have had my feel of DHS if they would have been for the best interest of my child in the beginning, and helped our family, which is what they profess is their job, my oldest daughter would still be at home, making good grades, still be a virgin, and still be treating her parents with respect and so on they teach kids if they don’t like going by the rules at home they can lie, and do whatever else they want to get to go somewhere without rules. There are all these rules to protect the child where is my protection? I was a sunday school teacher for nine years until this happened, and because I asked my child to tell the truth, I was charged with discussing the investigation while it was still being investigated, so they call that mental abuse, and now everything that I loved has been taken away from me for what? Because I loved my child too much to let her go wild, because I tried to teach my child morrals, and about telling the truth, maybe some people can’t understand what I’m saying because the world has taught that the accussed are always guilty but I assure you, I am not and because of DHS my daughter is in a home full of drugs and a abusive man with felony charges against him, but instead of opening a case for them they would rather investigate me some more because I have a clean home and go to church on a regular basis and do my best everyday to get up and face the crap they have put me through and go on.
Sincerely,

i do not live i tn,i live in tx—my nightmare beagn a month ago,cps and the local sheriff pulled up in my drive way,ordering my self and daughter to go with them,no explanations just orders—they took us to the local cps office and once my child was out of the room i ask what was going on—they said she(my daughter) had said that her dad had been touching her,i was in shock,the father and i were going thru a seperation and eventually divorce at this time–i have totally cooperated with them,even let the sheriff search our house looking for evidence that they needed to file charges against her dad,now cps is treating me as i am the one who did something wrong,not her father,i am under a micrsopic not him–i am told if i dont agree and do everything they say i will lose my daughter,so it seems to me i am the one on trail here not him-i have cps the local school and everyone all over me,everything from drug abuse to not taking care of my daughter.yes i smoked pot at one time in my life,but not in the last yr and i was honest about that,no reason in lieing,i am told how to be a mom what i should and should not be doing–not that i do anything i shouldnt be doing ,friends say get forceful with cps,but i dont see that,that is going to help anything but help them take her away from her only parent left, —help

DCS in Knoxville is putting an order to have my grandson declared a ward of the state and put in a home with strangers and relatives of the mother’s boyfriend. She just got out of jail on theft/drug related charges. She got diversion, 2 years with $$$ restition. The boyfriend is probably, hopefully going to prison for a few years with 6 felonies/ theft and drug related. You sure hope so anyway. His father now has him since we went for a visit the end of May and while there the two of them were arrested. The boy is in another state, the one he was born in and his dad’s name is on the birth certificate. He has an attorney and is legitimizing him and attempting to get custody.
Also, previously I tried to get custody of my grndson. Same reasons as above. went before Judge Irene Joseph of Juvenile Court. My atty. was late. She would not let us say one word. Waste of time and money. Still fighting but its rough!
My son who lives in NC found out June 2010 he had a 10 month old son in IA. who is in foster care. He has been making trips to IA for court hearing and visitations. The visitations are only when the IA DHS SW allows and the visits are not supervised. Today he received notice that the application for further appeals was denied. The state of IA when trying to locate him, put a notification in a town he never lived in or any family did. The SW and GAL was always telling my son, his paternity rights should be terminated. The foster family was told by DHS that they would have a chance to adopt the child. This was a case closed before it ever started.
Was he appointed an attorney? I hope you appeal this case and get it out of juvenile/family court. Keep me posted.
I hope u appeal to 4th Circuit, keep me posted.
Appeal appeal appeal to Fourth Circuit is what I would do.
Tell the court your financial issues. They can base fees on your income.
Dcs in marion county,Tn is corrupt. I have been fighting for two years. I was found not guilty in juvenile court and the kids were ordered to be returned to me but instead the state filled an appeal. In circuit court i was found guilty of neglect not severe abuse on allegations that are not true. My family filled a petition to take the kids for now and the state wont let them. I have no drug,alcohol or criminal history. They made me do a full mental eval. and it showed nothing.They accused me of everything under the sun and no evidence to back it up. They were just tryin to find something on me. I believe i am being picked on cause i am at the lower in of the financial bracket. I believe they took my kids and are keeping my kids cause they are good kids for adoption. I even have videos where the foster parents posted videos on youtube. In the videos the foster parents are telling the baby that they are mommie and daddie. My 4yr was dancing around in her underwear in one of the videos. They posted my kids names not sure why omni would have foster parents like this. I am beyond upset for the way my kids were out there on the internet. We downloaded and printed off all the pictures and videos. Dcs and omni are corrupt and need to be sued. I will not give up fighting! I love my kids more then anything in the world!
CPS IN IOWA TOOK MY 5 BOYS IN NEBRASKA ON LIES. I HAVE BEEN FIGHTING A YEAR TO GET THEM BACK. WRITE DOWN EVERYTHING CPS DHS WILL MESS UP. YOU WILL HAVE IT DOCUMENTED. I WILL NEVER STOP FIGHTING. DHS TOOK JULY 1ST 2010
Suzan rushing and judge rader are in the child kidnapping buisness together, she lied and fabricated stories to make her self look like a winner,when my little girl was taken from her mom i was in the state of az laying to rest my brother and sister that were murdered and when i showed up and took my little girl home she told me i would be arrested for kiddnapping ,she is 14 know and the foster parent says i can not have contact with her ,what is the legal age in tn for a child to make responsibls decisions on if she wants to have her real father be a part of her life, god will punish suzan rushing for all the lies she told to have responsible parents that love there children placed in the custody of strangers so they could get a check from the state
KADA,ARE YOU STILL OUT THERE? THAT IS WHY THEY TOOK MY CHILDREN.THE DAMAGED TO THE CHILDREN WAS UNBELIEVABLE!THEY DRUG THEM AND FRY THEIR THEIR BRAINS AND AFTER 18 YOU’LL BE LUCKY IF THEY CAN SEPARATE THE TRUTH FROM THE BRAINWASHING.
I have read several comments on here about several families destroyed by cps. I feel sorry for all of you and I know from personal experiences what it is like to deal with CPS. My son was taken from me when he was 2 months old after he was rushed to the emergency room. A little history on my son, from day he was born there was something wrong with my baby. His doctors and no one would listen to me then on Feb 16, 2011 my son had to be rushed to the er he was diagnosed with a brain bleed. Lets just say CPS lied, twisted stories, made it seem like we (my husband and i was a bad parent). The messed with the wrong person. I knew we hadn’t did anything to my son and there had to be an explanation for his bleed. We hired an attorney not a court appointed attorney but i did all the research with family friends etc. My attorney had one paper! He said we would make agreements with them and i said i am not making an agreements with them because this is my life and my husbands life and my sons life they are playing with. On valentines day, two days prior my son came forward in his baby swing and bump his head. I told the social worker at the hospital this. I gave them every little thing that happened to my son since birth. Well then 2 days later, CPS comes in and they tell me they are taking my son. They wanted me to sign papers, come to the police station etc. I think this lady was a bit surprised by my reaction. I told her very firmly, i am not signing any papers, i will not be at the police station. You will hear from my attorney within 2 hours. That is enough time to drive home and get one. My son was put through the ringer, test after test being done. The suspected NAT (non accidental trauma). This is a long story but the point of my story is after one month of throughly investigating my son was diagnosed with a very rare blood disorder. He has to be watched will never be able to play contact sports a bump on the head from anything could send him to the hospital. My point is I am going to sue CPS for false accusations, taking my son away from me when they suspected my husband, i was told by a nurse at the hospital if i would stop focusing on my husband than i would get to keep my kid. I knew my husband was innocent and i knew i didn’t do anything to my child. This is what i suggest people do: record every conversation you have with CPS be it with a cell phone because the very first questioning i went through happened to be recorded on a cell phone. This is my proof that from the very beginning my story never changed. Every question that they asked i answered and never suggested anything on my own. This could have saved me in courts to prove that CPS lied on their paperwork. Get a note book and write down every meeting you have with CPS and the names of everyone involved. Request copies of the minutes from CPS this is your right. Anyway after 1 month i had my son back. Because with the blood disorder this eleviated the accusation of NAT. I have not recovered from this incident and i can’t imagine going years or months without seeing my son. I am trying to find out how to sue cps because they have left mental scars and damaged me and kept me from my son. Once i figure out how to do this i am going to do it. I pray that everyone gets their family back together for the ones that actually didn’t commit the abuse.
i was one of these children,it took them 11 home visits to see that we were being sexually abused and neglected thank you very much DCS
Hi, thanks for reading my blog. I didn’t post your comment because it is incorrect. I don’t want others to be misinformed.
There is a statute of limitations on adoptions and removals. Usually 30 days to file an appeal in State Court of Appeals.
Also, the amount of people who file a lawsuit is not what constitutes a “class action”
TN. has already been sued in a class action suit in Federal Court
Also, one can’t sue for self respect to be returned either. Are you recently involved with Children’s Services?
Thanks,
Lisa – Bellas Mom
I am interested in details on the Class Action suit filed against TN DCS…can you give me any details on this? I am in the middle of a battle with DCS now. Without going into the ugly details, DCS was blatantly dishonest in their statements to the court. I don’t want to release details now because we have great evidence against the false allegations they have made and are awaiting a hearing. It is my intention to take this action as far as it needs to go for the protection of all children and parents. It is unacceptable for someon that is suppose to protect children to be dishonest in any way. The damage has been done to our family but I intend to seek change to the laws that govern DCS and REQUIRE that investigations be handled in a more professional and ethical way. Yes, we absolutely must protect our children but from what I am learning, DCS agencies across the country have abused their powers. This is in no way a DCS “witch hunt” but rather a hunt to seek out dishonest case workers that, for whatever reason, lie and falsify cases to produce their own selfish outcome.
You will be hearing much more from me in near future; I now understand why God has laid this on me and I will make sure that discovery is made and that we are not afraid to stand against this atrocity.
Again, I do not believe for one minute that all case workers are bad people, in fact I believe quite the opposite. I think most people go into that line of work to help children and families but unfortunately, there is corruption – it is just a part of our world. That is what I seek to expose and stop – the abuse. I respect all who serve in truth and serve responsibly. Sadly, I also know that many are afraid to speak up for fear of job loss and retaliation, this too must end.
Interested in helping? Have a case in TN? Any information that anyone has is greatly appreciated.
email me at — record4children@gmail.com.
I want to start with TN and then seek Federal Regulation to assure that EVERYONE is protected. I have served my country, both in the service and in the civilian/public safety world and I cannot stop until there is justice, truth and justice.

Let’s all get together and stop DCS abuse of power. It is damaging our children, our families and we cannot stand for it any longer! It takes a voice and determination to make people aware and put pressure on those that our taxes employ, that we elect, to take appropriate action. Get involved… email me at record4children@gmail.com

I am a recent victim in the process of going to trial. I read the horror stories of people a little too late!!! I have around 5 hours of recordings from meetings and phone conversations and they know it and refuse to talk to me anymore. Any tips comments suggestions would would help greatly. I have a lot of evidence against them just not sure what to do with it since I don’t trust anyone anymore!!
I also want more information on this class action lawsuit. I have videos and copies of some of the stuff they have done. They had a breach of confidenialty and i got proof. I am still fighting almost 3 years now. I will not back down and i will not lose my kids. The foster parents want to adopt and thats the only reason the state is fighting me so hard. They wont work with me or anything. I am fed up with marion county in TN and i will make sure they get held accountable for there actions.
OCS seems to be the same everywhere in this country…evil! We lost six grandchildren to the state of Alaska. So long as they get money incentives from the Govt. to take and keep these children…even though it is our money (borrowed on the full faith and credit of the American people)..it will not stop. Our family history with them started when a local hospital gave a drug free newborn only six minutes old, an opiate antagonist which nearly killed him. Not wanting to get caught the nurse started accusing the mother of drug use at the hospital. She called her friends At OSC, she tainted our daughter’s UA and the rest has been a nightmare. We were very active in our grandchildren’s lives. OCS has totallly destroyed our personal lives through their lies and we have not been permitted to even know where our grandbabies are. Right now I am trying to prepare writ of certeriori to the US Supreme Ct. I am not a lawyer and can’t afford one but we cant give up. I need prayers to keep my mind sharp and my words clear and concise.
I need it straight up, Shannon got fired from dhs bc she made it impossible for parents to get their kids back. Don’t know if u guys knew this or not but I can’t quit feeling like a piece of the most shittiest shit of a person on this earth bc I don’t have my daughter n see n her then having to give her back to Sumone would b sumthing I don’t think I could do bc she should b at home w her Fam 24/7! That’s selfish of me but I don’t know that I could do that or even see her under those sircumstances n if that ain’t good parenting then I don’t know what the freak is! But tell me straight up do u think we deserved what Shannon made us get? There was no way that witch was ever gonna let us have our daughter bak. She said Kalynn couldn’t have Justus bc he dropped a dirty ua! They never even asked him to drop!!!!!! I have an aunt an cousin who r able to adopt kids and that is the requirements for family placement which dhs is suppose to exhaust before permanent removal!!!! What the heck am I to do!!! Everyday n and everyday out is getting harder n harder for me to bear bc I can’t find a way to deal w or cope w or even accept this bs!! And everyone cums to me w their problems like I’m dr. Phil!!! And I can’t turn nobody away bc of my heart and the only thing that makes me feel just a tiny little bit Alive is by me helping out the ones who need it the most and even at that the ones that don’t even freaking deserve it! But that’s what GOD would do. That’s what I tell myself everyday! But darn it all I tried standing up n saying that that is what that woman was doing and nobody that could of done n d thing would listen to me! She kidnapped my daughter LEGALLY and ended up getting fired for just the same reason!!!!!!!! And there is nothing I or nobody else can do about it bc she had the case closed on her terms n not what the terms actually were!!!! I’m not a bad person nor parent but I can’t shake what that witch did to all of us. And I can’t shake that I let it happen bc I honestly never thought n a million years that she could get away w it! Well I guess I was right bc she didn’t! My daughters case just happened to happen a year or do to early! I mean when have u ever heard of it b n legit that dhs keeps a child from a parent just bc they have concerns of the parent MAY go to prison!!!! After a dhs worker had said that there was not a concern and was not a problem that I was on parole!!! AFTERWARDS!!!!!! Shannon Nichols is the most and about the only thing in this world today that reminds me that I’m still ALIVE! Bc everything else that’s apart of me has been taking away from me by her like she was the devil dressed as GOD! She is the cause and the reason y I chose to take the paths I chose to take. Bc she made it impossible for me to go down the path I wanted n tried to get. But not only I but Jamie as well. Since when does it make since that bc Sumone is NOT n treatment they can’t attend family drug court! Then put my ass back in treatment n let me in! They said no u would have to have a relapse n order for that to work! They got mad bc I knew Jamie’s work schedule. Thats the mother of my child n if that is not ok for me to no then this is not ok to begin w!!!! I’m beating the life I have left inside me over n over n over again n again n again. N I hang on to the hopes that ain’t even realistic that Sumday a judge will c this. And well a judge had to of seen it bc she got fired for it and I’m mad about it bc it should overturn every case that woman ever did! And the courts should notify every parent for every case she did to Atleast restart if and give a proper and fair chance to keep and earn back the GOD given right to mankind, to b the parents of our children! And yet nothing!!! I wish I was who I am bc then I’d have my daughter! Ya, right! I take care n help out so many kids n families that dhs would b jealous of. Atleast shannon would b. and dagnabbit I feel bad for talk n trash even but that women isn’t even good enough to b considered yesterday’s trash! But Jamie and I and whoever how many other parents r?????!!!!!! If u can do n e thing or think of n e thing that we can do to get this right please do. I don’t know if I can n e more bc I’ve become do numb n the only thing that helps is for me to help out families n kids n people in the very way if not better even, that Shannon Nichols said I abandoned when I never did!!! If I did then y does it say in the paper work that I was arguing n fighting n b n non complient w dhs? It wasn’t bc of what she was portraying it was bc she was in the wrong!!!! N I stood up to it! Maybe the wrong way but what’s the right way to do that? Bc I’ll tell u what ur thinking I did try! N it didn’t work! The woman even apologized to me one day I was b n very upset w her! A sincere apology but there wasnt n e thing she could do about bc it was to late for her to change her recommendation!!! N she had even said she realized that she had made a mistake AND I EVEN HAD A PERSON HEAR HER SAY IT!!!!!! But I have to accept this everyday minute second of my life! Powerless of what is the most precious part of life! Parenthood!!!! That’s what hood I represent! Even today! I guess it’s all for……………… I’ll let u fill n the rest.
I recently had DCS in my home. I was drug tested and told i failed the screening, i KNOW i don’t do drugsso I kept the test instead of throwing it away, I took it and had the very same one checked and was told it was negative! And the alligations are lies made up by my ex husband. What do I do now!? Who do i speak to? I dont trust the caseworker. She took everything we said and twisted it to maske our situation look bad.
It is hard to find an attorney who is not absolutely terrified to go up against CPS. Everyone has a story . The fact is very ,very few children are actually abused by their own parents. Statistics prove that the majority of valid child abuse or neglect of children is suffered at the hands of foster custodians and step parents, boyfriends and girlfriends. The following may be helpful to those caught in their wrath of corruption.
1. CPS HAS BECOME A CRIMINAL”CHILD TRAFFICKING’”AGENCY FUNDED BY THE GOVERNMENT.
2. IN ORDER TO CHANGE LAWS WE ALL MUST DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO EXPOSE THE CORRUPTION.
3. CPS PREDOMINANTLY TARGETS THOSE THAT ARE LOW INCOME OR ON STATE ASSISTANCE.
4. CPS WILL USUALLY BRING ALONG THE POLICE TO INTIMIDATE YOU INTO OPENING THE DOOR SO THEY MAY SEIZE YOUR CHILDREN AS THEY ALMOST ALWAYS DO.
5.CPS WILL MAKE NO ATTEMPT AT KINSHIP CARE.. DUE TO SIMPLE FACT THAT IF CPS PLACES YOUR CHILD IMMEDIATELY IN A FOSTER HOME GOVERNMENT FUNDS START ROLLING IN.
6. NEVER , EVER LET CPS INTO YOUR HOME WITHOUT A WARRANT. IF THEY REALLY HAVE A CASE THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO OBTAIN A REAL WARRANT FROM A REAL CONSTITUTIONAL JUDGE. NOT THIS POST- FACT O TYPE AFFIDAVIT OF CASEWORKER ..WHICH DOES NOT CONSTITUTE PROBABLE CAUSE FOR A WARRANT TO ISSUE.
8. ARM YOUR HOME WITH DIGITAL RECORDING DEVICES AND HIDDEN SECURITY CAMERAS IF YOU CAN. THIS HELP WHEN YOU LATER FILE A 1983 ACTION AGAINST THEM.
9. IF YOU END UP IN COURT RETAIN A COURT REPORTER… YOU WILL NEED THESE
RECORDS LATER FOR APPEAL OR LAWSUIT.
10. DO NOT AGREE TO ANY INTERVIEWS , CONVERSATIONS WITH GUARDIAN AD LITEMS, CASA WORKERS, SOCIAL WORKERS, COUNSELORS. THEY ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND AND ARE BEHOLDEN TO CPS. THESE PEOPLE ARE PRETTY MUCH SERVICE PROVIDERS FOR CPS AND YOU COULD SAY THEY ARE ON THE GOVERNMENT PAYROLL.
11. IF CPS HAS NOT YET KIDNAPPED YOUR CHILDREN.. GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE.
IF YOU CAN’T MOVE AT LEAST GET YOUR CHILDREN OUT OF THERE. YOU CAN MAKE A
TEMPORARY CUSTODY ARRANGEMENT WITH A RELATIVE IN ANOTHER AREA. IF CPS
ATTEMPTS TO QUESTION YOU AS TO WHERE YOUR CHILDREN ARE. YOU DO NOT HAVE
TO TELL THEM WHERE YOUR CHILDREN ARE. MAKE THEM GET A WARRANT.IN ALMOST EVERY CASE CPS WILL NOT BE ABLE,TO OBTAIN A WARRANT, DESPITE WHAT THEY MAY TELL YOU, TO SECURE A WARRANT FOR YOU OR YOUR CHILDREN BEFORE REMOVING YOUR CHILDREN THEY MUST HAVE PROBABLE CAUSE… A ANONYMOUS TIP WILL NOT SUFFICE AS PROBABLE CAUSE. .IF YOU WISH TO SPEAK WITH CPS OR POLICE GO OUTSIDE AND LOCK YOUR DOOR BEHIND YOU. IF THEY REQUEST PERMISSION TO SPEAK WITH YOUR CHILDREN TELL THEM THERE ARE NOT ANY CHILDREN RESIDING HERE AT THIS TIME. SAY NO MORE. LEAVE THE CHILDREN AT THE RELATIVES UNTIL IT IS SAFE OR PACK UP AND GO GET YOUR CHILDREN FROM THE RELATIVES AND MOVE.
12.IF YOUR CHILDREN ARE IN SCHOOL CPS WILL ATTEMPT TO INTERROGATE OR KIDNAP THEM FROM SCHOOL..THUS HOME SCHOOL IS A SAFE OPTION PROVIDING YOU FILE YOUR PAPERWORK WITH THE SCHOOL BOARD AND ACTUALLY PROVIDE EDUCATION TO YOUR CHILD. MOST STATES ARE NOT PERMISSION STATES MEANING YOU DO NOT NEED PERMISSION, BUT YOU MUST FILE LETTER OF INTENT. CHECK HOME SCHOOL LAW ONLINE FOR YOUR STATE.
13.IF YOU ARE ALREADY GOING THROUGH COURT AND CPS HAS NO PROOF OF ANY ABUSE OR NEGLECT DO NOT AGREE TO ANY SERVICE PLANS. CPS WILL THREATEN YOU TO NO END. STICK TO YOUR GUNS. IF YOU AGREE TO ANY SERVICE PLAN YOU WILL BE ARBITRARILY FORCED TO DEAL WITH CPS FOR YEARS TO COME SINCE YOUR CHILDREN WILL THEN BE CONSIDERED A STEADY PAYCHECK FOR CPS AND IT’S SERVICE PROVIDERS. IF A jUDGE’S DECISION IS NOT IN YOUR FAVOR OR JUST CORRUPT … APPEAL IT . REMEMBER YOU USUALLY ONLY HAVE TEN DAYS TO DO THIS.
14. NEVER GIVE CPS PERMISSION TO INTERROGATE YOUR CHILD. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WILL DO.
15.FILE WRITTEN COMPLAINTS VIA CERTIFIED MAIL TO EVERY AGENCY INVOLVED IN THE KIDNAPPING OF YOUR CHILD. JUDICIAL REVIEW COMMITTEE FOR THE JUDGE. FEDERAL DEPT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE FOR CPS UNLAWFULLY EXTORTING GOVERNMENT FUNDS ON BEHALF OF YOUR CHILD. BAR ASSOCIATION FOR COMPLAINTS ABOUT GUARDIAN AD LITEMS OR ATTORNEYS. EXPOSE , EXPOSE, EXPOSE. IF YOU HAVE RECORDINGS OR VIDEOS GET THE MEDIA INVOLVED.
16. PROBABLY THE BEST THING IS TO TAKE YOUR CHILD OFF THE GRID COMPLETELY. IT’S SAD THAT YOUR CHILD HAS TO LIVE SUCH A SHELTERED LIFE BUT CPS HAS BECOME SO CORRUPT AND ABUSIVE FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES THAT WE MUST NOW TAKE DRASTIC MEASURES TO PROTECT OUR CHILDREN FROM CPS. THIS YEAR COMING WILL BE ESPECIALLY BAD SINCE OUR DOLLAR IS ABOUT TO BECOME WORTHLESS, THE GOVERNMENT IS BANKRUPT , BANKS ARE ABOUT TO GO BELLY UP. CPS WILL HAVE TO KIDNAP MORE CHILDREN IN ORDER TO RECEIVE ENOUGH FUNDING TO KEEP EVERYONE WORKING. WE SUSPECT A LOT OF CITIZENS WILL SOON BECOME ENLIGHTENED AS TO HOW CORRUPT CPS IS.
17. NEVER REFER TO FOSTER CUSTODIANS AS “FOSTER PARENTS” SINCE THEY DO NOT FOSTER ANYTHING GOOD AND THEY ARE NOT THE PARENTS OF OUR CHILDREN. CPS CALLS THEM “FOSTER PARENTS’ BECAUSE IT SOUNDS NICE AND SECURE. THIS IS INTENTIONAL TO DECEIVE THE PUBLIC. MORE CHILDREN HAVE DIED, BEEN MOLESTED, ASSAULTED IN FOSTER HOMES THAN BY PARENTS. WE LIKE TO REFER TO THEM AS THE COLD ENTITY TO WHICH THEY ARE….”FOSTER HOUSES” “TEMPORARY FOSTER CUSTODIANS” IT WOULD BE NICE IF WE COULD REMOVE THE WORD” FOSTER “COMPLETELY AS THE ONLY THING THEY FOSTER IS A PAYCHECK FOR YOUR CHILD LIVING UNDER THEIR ROOF ALONG WITH THE THREE OR FOUR OTHER CHILDREN THEY ARE RECEIVING PAYCHECKS FOR.
18. WE ARE NOT ATTORNEYS. WE HAVE DEALT WITH THE WRATH OF CPS. WE WON. BUT WE WENT THROUGH LIVING HELL AND OUR CHILDREN MAY NEVER RECOVER FROM THE DAMAGE DONE BY THIS CORRUPT AGENCY. ULTIMATELY YOU MUST DECIDE WHAT TO DO IN YOUR CASE. THE ADVISE WE LIST IS ONLY SUGGESTIVE AS IT HELPED US AND OTHERS WITHIN OUR GROUP. WE WISH YOU ALL GODS BLESSING FOR YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN.
