Stepgrandmother convicted of abuse
Stepgrandmother convicted of abuse
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/htm...2_dige10m.html A Pierce County woman accused in a highly publicized case of child abuse was convicted Friday of three counts of assaulting her stepgrandson. Authorities said the woman, Loni Venegas, beat the boy with sticks, choked him and scalded him. Another time she beat the bottoms of his feet till he could barely walk. His grandfather, Remil Venegas, was accused of repeatedly punching him in the stomach. The boy's birth mother was killed and he lived with the Venegas family in Puyallup. Child Protective Services failed to follow up on a number of complaints. When it finally intervened, its "safety plan" was to have the boy, then 12, live in a travel trailer outside the house. When the Pierce County Sheriff's Department found out, it blasted the agency. Department of Social and Health Services Secretary Robin Arnold Williams instituted several new policies as a result of the case, including improving the exchange of information between police and CPS. The case is also used as a training tool for new social workers. Loni Venegas faces 10 to 15 years in prison when she is sentenced Friday. Remil Venegas faces trial beginning June 19. The boy is under state supervision, but he's living with paternal relatives. An Inconvenient Truth about Child Protective Services, Foster care, and the Child Protection "INDUSTRY" Child Protective Services Does not protect children... It is sickening how many children are subject to abuse, neglect and even killed at the hands of CPS. every parent should read the free handbook from connecticut dcf watch... http://www.connecticutdcfwatch.com Number of Cases per 100,000 children in the US These numbers come from The National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect in Washington. (NCCAN) Recent numbers have increased significantly for CPS Perpetrators of Maltreatment Physical Abuse CPS/Foster care 160, biological Parents 59 Sexual Abuse CPS/Foster care 112, biological Parents 13 Neglect CPS/Foster care 410, biological Parents 241 Medical Neglect CPS/Foster care 14 biological Parents 12 Fatalities CPS/Foster care 6.4, biological Parents 1.5 Imagine that, 6.4 children die at the hands of the very agencies that are supposed to protect them and only 1.5 at the hands of parents per 100,000 children. CPS perpetrates more abuse, neglect, and sexual abuse and kills more children then parents in the United States. If the citizens of this country hold CPS to the same standards that they hold parents too. No judge should ever put another child in the hands of ANY government agency because CPS nationwide is guilty of more harm and death than any human being combined. CPS nationwide is guilty of more human rights violations and deaths of children then the homes from which they were removed. When are the judges going to wake up and see that they are sending children to their death and a life of abuse when children are removed from safe homes based on the mere opinion of a bunch of social workers.

Some experts estimate that about 30% of the children in care have marked or severe emotional problems. Various studies have indicated that children and young people in foster care tend to have limited education and job skills, perform poorly in school compared to children who are not in foster care, lag behind in their education by at least one year, and have lower educational attainment than the general population. *Casey Family Programs National Center for Resource Family Support 80 percent of prison inmates have been through the foster care system. The highest ranking federal official in charge of foster care, Wade Horn of the Department of Health and Human Services, is a former child psychologist who says the foster care system is a giant mess and should just be blown up. http://abcnews.go.com/print?id=2017991 Four rigorous studies have found that at least 30 percent of America’s foster children could be home right now if their parents had decent housing.
