Fighting CPS 8/11/2013 2:59:41 PM
The purpose of this blog is to provide updates on some of the cases I reported in my book (Fighting CPS: Guilty Until Proven Innocent of Child Protective Services Charges ISBN 9-780-9800061-6-2) that had not been resolved when the book went to press, and to report other cases where CPS is not working up to par. I’d also like to hear about cases in which Child Protective Services did the right thing so those cases can serve as examples of what should be done. Occasionally, I will report helpful tips and web sites with advice on fighting CPS. To comment on this blog, or to tell your story, email Deborah Frontiera at frontiera.fightingcps.deborah.gmail.com
The next post will be on Aug. 26, 2013.
Another Sad Story Obtained through Cheryl Carlson:
CHILD 'PROTECTIVE' SERVICES DESTROYED MY FAMILY—PART 1 OF 3
(Names have been removed to protect the privacy of the family involved until the very end)
State and federally funded Child Protective Service agencies are seizing children from non-abusive homes in the absence of evidence or realistic cause to believe that the child is in danger of harm, and in gross violation of their own protocols, State and Federal regulations, and the Constitution of the United States. Children failed by the system have died while in the protective custody of the State, in the care of CPS and in foster care.
Each child in your family has a 1 in 25 chance of being the subject of a child abuse/neglect investigation this year. The chance of getting a flat tire on the family car is 1 in 70 (including Firestone’s).
Many children are taken from fit and loving parents solely based upon false allegations reported anonymously to a hotline, or as a result of a caseworker’s own personal judgment, or even by someone with a vendetta as in our case.
The State gains entry into private homes following the filing of a report of suspected child maltreatment. This report may be filed anonymously by anyone: a vindictive neighbor, a teacher, a day care provider, or an unstable busybody. You can lose your children from an anonymous phone call, with NO involvement from law enforcement, and NO charges of any wrong-doing. CPS controls the courtroom and employs the tactic of delay and “hide the ball” to keep families separated. This can go on for months and even years while children are separated from their families.
Actual acts of child abuse or severe neglect are not the primary allegations used to seize children from their families, meaning deliberate acts, willfully committed with the intent to harm – contrary to public assumption. CPS employs a method known as the “Clinical Model”, in which the behaviors of the child are used to claim that there is some sort of obscure psychological abuse in the home that has traumatized the child.
“Child protection is one of the biggest businesses in the country. We spend $12 billion a year on it. The money goes to tens of thousands of state employees, collateral professionals such as lawyers, court personnel, court investigators, evaluators and guardians, judges, and CPS contracted vendors such as counselors, therapists, more evaluators, junk psychologists, residential facilities, foster parents, adoptive parents, MSPCC, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, YMCA, etc.” (Nev Moore, Founder of Justice for Families.)
Service providers, called vendors, hold multi-million dollar contracts with CPS. Families are ordered to engage in “services” with these contracted vendors, all of whom bill Medicaid at enormously inflated rates for “services” that are often inappropriate, unnecessary, and completely irrelevant to the families situation, or to child maltreatment.
Behind the money is the socialist ideology that children should be raised by the state. This agenda was promoted by Dr. C. Henry Kempe (author of Battered Child Syndrome) in the 1970′s. An open supporter of the Communist party, he stated, “We must remove children from the crude influence of their families and, frankly, nationalize them.” Dr. Kempe emphasized the need for a “stealthy, incremental approach” to implementing the agenda to make families obsolete.
Families are coerced into participating by intimidation and the threat of losing their children. In return for fraudulently collected profits, the contracted vendors provide manufactured “evidence” of child maltreatment to support the claim that they need to keep the child in foster care. In return for this they receive more federal funding. Now this is truly job security.
Nothing in our life experience is more devastating than the abrupt, brutal, and unwarranted forced separation by strangers. The parent-child bond is our strongest instinct, superseding all else. To have this bond severed by state agents who possess unhindered power, and give no thought or consideration to the fear, anxiety, and trauma that their actions cause, is a crime against humanity. This is happening to 4,600 children per day, right here in the United States of America.
The law states that a child can only be removed from their home as a last resort, and only when the child is at imminent risk of serious harm, but CPS does not follow established law and policy, and nobody makes them.
I home schooled 7 children and raised them in the Christian faith. My middle daughter B33—who calls herself J33, (then 19 years old) walked across the street in January 2006 and told neighbors C11, E11 and C22 and R22 that she was sexually molested with power tools, beaten with crow bars and burned alive. This all supposedly took place between the ages of 8 to 16 years. Never mind that there is no physical evidence of any of this (because it never happened). Not one of these so called "Christian" neighbors bothered to come to my door to ask me if these things were true. My husband was arrested but subsequently released on bond.
The ‘protective’ order drafted by J33 disarmed us for 2 years. We lived out in the country where predators threatened our livestock. None of us has ever pointed a gun at a human being, yet, J33 “dreamed” that her father pointed a shotgun at the family and told them to get on the floor or he would kill us all. J33 later mentioned that the dream seemed “so real”. Yes, it was real enough to make sure we wouldn’t even be allowed to have ONE bullet in the home without fear of arrest.
My two youngest children were taken away from me without a warrant. CPS actors MariJo Shearin and Lisa Moore just walked in…and took them at 1500 hours on Wednesday, January 11, 2006. NOTHING was done to keep them in the home. REMOVAL was the first and only choice of CPS. The law states that a child can only be removed from their home as a LAST resort, and only when the child is at imminent risk of serious harm. Removal of my two daughters, non-abused children, from their home was perceived by them to be an act of emotional and psychological terrorism. CPS does not follow established law and policy. They face no consequences for their illegal behavior. Law enforcement routinely submits to the whims of social workers as they did in our case when Caldwell County officials Captain David Brent and Detective Amaya accompanied CPS into the home and told everyone to get out of the house so CPS could “interview” me alone.
Normal, innocent people do not tend to be suspicious and defensive, so they usually cooperate when social workers knock on their door. This mother offered no resistance, foolishly believing that truth and justice would prevail and that we had done nothing illegal and therefore had nothing to hide. Citizens should NOT be removed from their homes and family members based on nothing more than hearsay.
