Permanent termination of parental rights has been described as "the family law equivalent of the death penalty in a criminal case." In re Smith (1991), 77 Ohio App.3d 1, 16, 601 N.E.2d 45, 54. Therefore, parents "must be afforded every procedural and substantive protection the law allows."

CPS Corrupt in [town] [county] [state]

July 11, 2010
How do I find out if my rights were violated by CPS?

#1 
No matter what stage your "case" is in, the Number One (#1) thing YOU MUST DO- Document, Document, Document.  This costs nothing and is the MOST IMPORTANT thing you can do in your defense.  Keep detailed records of who said what, when.  ESPECIALLY document face-to-face and conversations on the phone.  Record or video tape if you have it.   CPS workers "make mistakes", LIE, and TWIST your words.

Washington State Extended Families has a nice essay on how to do Documentation.

#2 
If there is a lawyer in your area who HATES CPS and knows how to put up a DEFENSE, hire him now and help him defend you.  If you have to sell the car, mortgage the house, clean out your retirement fund, borrow from relatives- pay his retainer.  (No, you shouldn't have to do this to receive "justice", but this is the way the new progressive "sustainable government" works.)
 

NOTE- If you ARE a LAWYER who wants to learn HOW, see-
Legal Information

 If you get a court-appointed attorney, you may or may not receive a "vigorous defense".  About the standard pay they receive is $500 total, so the pay is no motivation to them.  You might get a young, idealistic one fresh from law school, and he may be pretty aggressive.  Some older ones who are not calloused may also really go to bat for you and the children and provide Competent CounselIn all cases, Help your lawyer defend you

Be aware that some "courts" may be so "unencumbered by the Constitution" that a lawyer "may" risk his Bar License by providing a "vigorous defense".  (See What Happens in the FOG)

There are also stories about CPS KIDNAPPING THE LAWYER'S CHILDREN AND ASSASSINATING HIS CHARACTER TOO.  We have heard of CPS doing the same thing to JUDGES, Doctors, Police officers, other CPS people (Whistle-Blowers), and even State Representatives who challenge CPS' lies and fascist activities.

If there is NO such lawyer (there's not very many), or you are penniless,

That's why just filing your papers with the court clerk may be the
only way to
GET THE TRUTH ON THE RECORD

If you don't get anything ON THE RECORD, you will likely have
NO appealable issues in the future. 
See this and ESPECIALLY THIS

What Happens in the FOG- Beginning with an anonymous hotline "tip" of suspected abuse, a parent enters a gray area of American jurisprudence.  And it is not "murky" to his benefit.  

Child Abuse, when alleged, is not a criminal matter.  It is blithely characterized as a "Civil" matter, much the same as a lawsuit to collect on a breach of contract.  Thus, the Constitutional protections afforded in a criminal case are not necessarily extended to those accused of Child Abuse.

Write your own version of history in a Sworn Declaration
 and FILE IT with the Court, the CPS, the DA, and whoever else that has ANYTHING to do with your case.

You are SWEARING to the truthfulness of your statements.  The CPS witches aren't swearing to ANYTHING (what is SACRED to them that they COULD swear on? The Humanist Manifesto II?)

You had better be telling the truth with no "embellishments" and citing FACTS you can back up with evidence or witnesses' sworn statements.  Say NOTHING self-incriminating.  If you have something to hide, you aren't going to lie your way out of it.

The importance of your Sworn Declaration cannot be over- emphasized! 
THE ONLY WAY you have appealable "issues" in the future
is to get your facts ON THE RECORD in court.

 SHUT UP--- SHUT UP--- SHUT UP!  
Quit talking with the CPS monsters.  You are waiving your FIFTH AMENDMENT CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT and Miranda Rights every time you answer a question.

"The claim and exercise of a Constitutional right cannot be converted into a crime." -- Miller v. U.S. Source: 230 F 2d 486, 489

Personal and phone conversations are where "mistakes" (inventions and fabrications) happen when THEY write their report about the conversations. Words you say float up into the rafters and come back twisted against you.  If you feel you have to talk with them, record it or videotape it.  And don't forget to DOCUMENT it.

CPS is NOT your friend! 

Women especially fall into this trap.  Especially in cases where a child is ALLEGEDLY abused or molested by a family member.  

DO NOT pour your heart out to a CPS worker or CPS contractor Mental Illness clinician.

Do that, and you will join the ranks of "co-perpetrator" lamenting "I was so, so foolish.  I was an IDIOT. I thought they were there to HELP  me.  I thought the CPS worker CARED.  I thought I had PROFESSIONAL CONFIDENTIALITY with the psych shithead."   

CPS will use every word you say to make your child a Legal Orphan, because THAT'S what they are being PAID for.
Ignore or forget this at your and your children's EXTREME PERIL.

Interrogations occurring inside the home are custodial, requiring Miranda advisements under the Fifth Amendment, if the circumstances turn it into one of a “police-dominated” atmosphere.

Speaking personally, if there was no cop there, I would darn sure turn it into a "police dominated atmosphere", by calling 911 and report that my home was being trespassed under the Color of Law with no Warrant.  If they DO have a warrant, SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP.

Court: Suspects must say they want to be silent
By Jesse J. Holland ASSOCIATED PRESS
11:27 a.m., Tuesday, June 1, 2010

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that suspects must tell police explicitly that they want to be silent to invoke Miranda protections during criminal interrogations, a decision one dissenting justice said turns defendants' rights "upside down."

A right to remain silent and a right to a lawyer are the first of the Miranda rights warnings, which police recite to suspects during arrests and interrogations. But the justices said in a 5-4 decision that suspects must tell police they are going to remain silent to stop an interrogation, just as they must tell police that they want a lawyer.  FULL STORY

#5 
BE POLITE!  The highest crime you can commit is "Contempt of Social Worker".
We have reports of POLICEMEN telling people that the Constitutional Rights and Miranda Rights are only for TV, and what they are doing is "The Real World".
See The Oath of Office

EVERY OATH of OFFICE in the USA includes "support the Constitution"

Since many of them seem like childish morons, SOCIOPATHIC, and plainly nasty with no discernable social "skills", this can be a difficult task. 

"I would love to answer your question, but I cannot do that without violating my Fifth Amendment Rights and my Miranda Rights"

"I would love to let you in my house to look around without a Search Warrant.  But I cannot do that without violating my Fourth Amendment Rights"

"There is a secret pride in every human heart that revolts at tyranny. You may order and drive an individual, but you cannot make him respect you." --William Hazlitt

We believe the court-ordered psych exam is a violation of your 5th Amendment rights.  Don't entertain the folly that psychiatrists are your friend.  No, you do not enjoy professional "confidentiality" with them.  They are the foremost tool of character assassination.

#6 
Insist on LETTERS to and from the agencies.  They can't alter their words printed on paper that have been mailed to you.   Nor can they alter your words either.  KEEP COPIES of your letters to them. 

#7  Get your records- FOIA/Privacy Act/ Open Records.  Anything they FORCE you to sign, sign it "Under Duress".  You can also Rescind your previous signatures.

Clean up your house and your life.
Obviously, if your house is a mess or your life is a mess, your CPS worker is going to use every bit of it against you.  There is (so far as we know) absolutely NO LAW about "dirty house", but they make a big deal out of it.

Shacking up with a boyfriend is the path to hell.  Boyfriends have NO "natural affection" for your children, and they are the #1 baby rapists and child abusers and killers, at the TOP of any statistical data.

So this is something YOU CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT.  Clean up.  Quit smoking.  Develop some MORALS.  Maybe find a nice Foursquare church in your area.  

"The foundation of national morality must be laid in private families. ... How is it possible that Children can have any just Sense of the sacred Obligations of Morality or Religion if, from their earliest Infancy, they learn their Mothers live in habitual Infidelity to their fathers, and their fathers in as constant Infidelity to their Mothers?" --John Adams, Diary, 1778

Whatever you are doing that you KNOW is wrong, the choice is between your laziness, habits, lifestyle choices, CATS, and YOUR KIDS.

Best interest of the child- A new "Civil Right"
October 16, 2009
Family Rights Examiner Leonard Henderson

Last year, I was cleaning up my computer desktop. One item I came across was a poignant photo of a FLDS girl alone on a bus waving goodbye to her home and the life she knew.

As I was looking at this image, it struck me that- This IS a photo of the "Best Interest of the Child".

And then it struck me- This is a NEW Civil Right

That is, the child has the "right" to have her life decisions made for her by government. HER "BEST INTEREST" CIVIL RIGHTFULL STORY

Placement of Children With Relatives
Year Published:  2008

"Preference to Relatives-
Each State defines "relative" differently, including relatives through blood, marriage, or adoption ranging from the first to the fifth degree. Generally, preference is given to the child's grandparents, followed by aunts, uncles, adult siblings, and cousins. For Indian children, six States allow members of the child's Tribe to be considered "extended family members" for placement purposes.

The main requirements for placement are that the relative be "fit and willing," able to ensure the child's safety, and able to meet the child's needs. Approximately 23 States and the District of Columbia require relatives to undergo a criminal background check that may include all adult members of the household."

New Online Clearinghouse for State Child Welfare Policies
 
Child Trends, with support from Casey Family Programs, launches the State Child Welfare Policy Database to provide information on child welfare laws, procedures, and agency guidance for all 50 states and the District of Columbia.  The Database can help elected officials, administrators, advocates, practitioners, researchers, and other stakeholders keep up to date with the policies that protect our nation's most vulnerable children.  

 

The site can be navigated by state or by topic.  You can learn about your state's expenditures on child welfare services, policies for relatives and "kin" caring for children involved in the child welfare system, benefits and services provided to foster youth after age 18, and much more.  In addition to the traditional web version, the site is designed to be compatible with your mobile device, allowing for easily accessible information on the go.

 

For more information about child welfare resources available at Child Trends, please visit: www.childtrends.org/childwelfare.  Through program evaluations, data analysis, policy surveys, literature reviews, and research syntheses, we seek to inform policy makers and frontline practice.

Amendment IV

The right of the people (now including kids too!) to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized

You don't have to talk with CPS agents, so DON'T.

What advice does a suspect in a child abuse case need to hear right away?

No cases challenge a lawyer
more than those alleging child
abuse - and very few have
higher stakes.
-- David S. Marshall

He should not talk to the police or any other public agency about the accusation. If the suspect has information the police need, either to clear him or for any other purpose, he should pass it to them through counsel. http://www.childabuselaw.info


NCADRC...

"We are a non-profit organization dedicated to educating professionals and the falsely accused on factual, scientific data regarding child abuse allegations. To that end, we host one of the largest conferences on the topic of false child abuse allegations every 12 to 24  months.

For the falsely accused, we can refer leading professionals from the legal, mental health, and medical fields.

For the defense team, we can provide relevant research, expert referrals, and other resources necessary to be successful at trial.

For those who investigate, substantiate and prosecute claims of child abuse, we can provide resources to aid in objective assessment and conclusions that effectively distinguish genuine abuse victims from children that intentionally or mistakenly make or are coerced to make false allegations."

Bypass all the travail in the courtroom and with the atty.  Just FILE IT.  Tell the Court Clerk "I want it time stamped, a photo-copy of it, and it FILED WITH MY CASE" 

This is of course assuming that you have written it REALLY WELL, given them NOTHING to use against you (ADMIT TO NOTHING!  "Compromise" does nothing but shoot yourself in the foot.) and presents YOUR VERSION of the TRUTH.

Reference No.: E-09 Updated: 2/ 23/ 01

Parents in the United States are subject to increasing government involvement in their lives as they seek to properly raise their children. Administrative agencies of the government, which are created by statute to carry out broad directives such as maintaining the health and welfare of minor children, are given more and more discretion in performing those duties. Read the Whole Report

Believe it or not, everybody's case is pretty identical.  The CPS has led you to believe you are some kind of "special case".  The absurd accusations they have brought against you are NOT a "mistake".  It is a SCAM to keep you dizzy with fear. They have not "misunderstood" you.  THEY ARE DOING IT DELIBERATELY.

If you happen to be one of the EXTREMELY LUCKY FEW who have found this website BEFORE you are accused OR you have a situation where you believe YOU MIGHT BE ACCUSED in the near future, please read-  If you are ever approached by Social Services

Answer their first, simple questions truthfully.  If Johnnie or Suzie told the social worker they fell off the bicycle or down the stairs or hurt themselves on the trampoline, THINGS MIGHT be OK. 

Make sure you document this immediately after the interview happens.  Recorded or Videotaped is great too.

Beyond that, we advise that you cite your Fifth Amendment Right not to volunteer to tell them anything.  Anything you say most assuredly WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU.  Anything you say will come back twisted into a virtually unrecognizable tale.  The version of YOU they fabricate would be unrecognizable if it didn't have your name smeared all over it.

Five Problems Facing Public Defense

and last, but not least, the-
Marsden Hearing

Most often, falsely accused parents do not seek help until their case has become quite hopeless.  People find Parents Rights Advocates like us when they have become DESPERATE.  Usually, any money they had- has already disappeared into a law firm that did not present anything close to a defense.  So what are you going to do now that YOU ARE BROKE?

  • Usually, the man- father- daddy has already been forced out of his home and away from his family with false allegations of his "dangerousness", "violence", "abuse"- most often complete with restraining orders CPS forced the wife- mother to seek. 
  • It is ABSOLUTELY standard practice for CPS to threaten the wife-mother with being charged HERSELF for "failure to protect" if she defends the husband- daddy's innocence.
  • Most frequently, the husband- daddy has already lost his job due to the completely INSANE compelled classes, "counseling", "psych evaluations", drug tests, and other "meetings" scheduled during his WORK HOURS.
  • Most frequently, the wife- mother has been reduced to dependency on government programs such as Food Stamps, HUD housing, and whatever other government programs and classes can be FORCED ON HER.
  • And with INCREASING FREQUENCY, the wife- mothers are now being THROWN OFF the government programs and found "neglectful" because she cannot provide food and housing for the children.  CPS agencies across the nation are scooping up kids by the van-full.  
  • The "Divide and Conquer" scam is complete when they have daddy and momma in prison and the kids diagnosed with various mental syndromes so the CPS can collect the Social Security Title IV funds and keep the kids DRUGGED so they are "easy to handle".

Represent Yourself in Court: How to Prepare and Try a Winning Case (Paperback)
by Paul Bergman (Author), Sara J. Berman-Barrett (Author), Lisa Guerin (Author) "This book provides the information you need to prepare for trial and represent yourself in court..."

Reviews:

From Library Journal- The nuts and bolts of self-representation in court are presented in this detailed, sensible book. The authors describe the legal process from the investigation of the case through the collection of a judgment, with an emphasis on what happens in the courtroom. Bergman and Berman-Barrett share the procedures and methods a lay person needs to survive in an environment that is not necessarily friendly to nonattorneys. Understanding that in the law the devil is in the details, they take pains to avoid oversimplification, and they do an equally good job of illuminating concepts like burden of proof and procedures like marking and identifying exhibits. The authors highlight important information with icons that alert the reader to a practical suggestion, warn of a potential problem, or refer to other resources on the subject. Highly recommended for even modest legal self-help collections, including those that already own Robert Schachner's How and When To Be Your Own Lawyer (LJ 3/1/ 93).

"Am I in a court of Constitutional Due Process?"

This is a fairly accurate representation of what really happens to a family in "family court"

Momma and papa are seldom left together. Ideally, both will be in prison for plea bargaining when they were INNOCENT and paying child support from their prison pay.  

Missing carrying off the money are the colluding malfeasant psychiatrists who helped assassinate the parent's character, and the fosterwardens collecting their $700+ a month per child.  

The kids won't be bawling because they are going to be doped out of their heads in foster prison.  They may become "special needs", go to "Residential Treatment" to maximize the Federal Funding streams up to, or exceeding $10,000 a month.  

See why keeping your child with YOU in YOUR HOME isn't very important?

"Lack of counsel of choice can be conceivably even worse than no counsel at all, or of having to accept counsel beholden to one's adversary." Burgett v. Texas, 389 US 109

We supply information for free.  No Family Rights Advocate under the AFRA umbrella charges you for their help.  You may feel free to help your advocate financially, but you are NOT required to do so.  

Some of AFRA's member advocacies may have 501 (c)(3) Non-profit Tax Free status  Many do not, and must not represent that donations to them are "Tax Free".

American Family Rights association does NOT have a 501(c)(3)

We don't want one because we refuse to have our political activities hand-cuffed:

IRS Charities & Non-Profits Page

"An IRC Section 501(c)(3) organization may not engage in carrying on propaganda, or otherwise attempting, to influence legislation as a substantial part of its activities."

We do NOT seek donations or membership fees of any kind.  If you want to help Families, we recommend you support your local advocacy, or "pay it forward" by helping others in your locale.  

Otherwise, if you want to help, we recommend you to print large quantities of our brochures and distribute them widely to prepare young families for "The Visit"
