Social worker's perjury trial to start Wednesday
Social worker's perjury trial to start Wednesday
http://www.wcfcourier.com/articles/2...ca0042e13e.txt INDEPENDENCE --- The trial for a Buchanan County social worker charged with three counts of perjury is slated to begin Wednesday. Marie Mahler, 39, of Cedar Falls, is accused of filing three child welfare reports with the courts between Aug. 27, 2004, and Oct. 7, 2004, that contained false information. Court documents state Mahler's reports included several misrepresentations of conversations, events and relationships of people involved in a child custody case between Denise Gander of Jesup and Allen Gardner of Tripoli. The child-in-need-of-assistance case began in February 2004 after Gander's two youngest children, a boy and a girl, tested positive for having methamphetamine in their systems. The children were placed with relatives. Meanwhile, Gander and Gardner began a legal battle for the girl, who is Gardner's daughter. Mahler's reports were filed during this time period, according to court documents. Mahler is employed by the Iowa Department of Human Services and has had her license since 1998. She has no record of disciplinary action, according to the Iowa Bureau of Professional Licensing, and her license is active. State officials said it is unusual for a social worker to be charged with perjury for information included in a report. Perjury is a Class D felony punishable by up to five years in prison. The trial is expected to last three days. CURRENTLY CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES VIOLATES MORE CIVIL RIGHTS ON A DAILY BASIS THEN ALL OTHER AGENCIES COMBINED INCLUDING THE NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY/CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY WIRETAPPING PROGRAMS.... CPS Does not protect children... It is sickening how many children are subject to abuse, neglect and even killed at the hands of Child Protective Services. every parent should read this .pdf from connecticut dcf watch... http://www.connecticutdcfwatch.com/8x11.pdf 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 160, Parents 59 Sexual Abuse CPS 112, Parents 13 Neglect CPS 410, Parents 241 Medical Neglect CPS 14 Parents 12 Fatalities CPS 6.4, 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. CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES, HAPPILY DESTROYING THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT FAMILIES YEARLY NATIONWIDE AND COMING TO YOU'RE HOME SOON... BE SURE TO FIND OUT WHERE YOUR CANDIDATES STANDS ON THE ISSUE OF REFORMING OR ABOLISHING CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES ("MAKE YOUR CANDIDATES TAKE A STAND ON THIS ISSUE.") THEN REMEMBER TO VOTE ACCORDINGLY IF THEY ARE "FAMILY UNFRIENDLY" IN THE NEXT ELECTION... |

The trial is expected to last three days. Hmm.. Iowa! State motto: "We're *still* sorry about Vilsack. Honest." It's unusual that a DHS CPS caseworker has a "license". Since when? Last I knew all needed to be licensed social workers. Have the regulations for such changed recently? What's the statute of limitations for this Kent? Perjury has a SoL of seven years in the state of Iowa. Since the alleged perjury occurred in 2004, the SoL hasn't expired. If your wondering about this in regards to your case, the SoL has expired. You chose to do nothing and now there is nothing you can do. Misrepresentations about conversations and relationships? How was THAT enough? If the report was made under penalty of perjury, and it can be proved BARD that she willingly submitted false information that rose to the level of perjury, it would be enough. Since she's going to trial, we can presume the county attorney believes she committed perjury. Kids tested positive for Meth, so WHY did this person LIE? We can't know her motivation. Only she knows that. And this presumes she did lie. Being charged with a crime does not mean the person is actually guilty of the crime. FIVE YEARS in prison? Oh boy! Up to five years. Actually, the way the law reads, No more than five years, but I'm being picky. The end result is the same. -- Kent Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons... for thou art crunchy and taste good with ketchup. |

Iowa DHS CPS Caseworkers don't need a Social Work education or license. This is fairly new then. It used to be (back in 2002) that they did. I've not had cause to check since then. That's true nationwide, with few exceptions. Even NASW members were surprised that SW licenses are not required. Hell Kent, most contract SOCIAL WORKERS in Iowa have no SW license either! You can, of course, offer a verifiable cite for this, right? The board of Social Work says a license is not required for Bachelors or below. Not available is NOT the same as not required. That aside, can you offer a cite for this claim? We had one who had no license for SW and no license for therapy bid did both for pay. G What's the statute of limitations for this Kent? KW Perjury has a SoL of seven years in the state of Iowa. Can you point out the statute, Kent? Of course. Unlike you, I don't make up facts. However, I was in error regarding your case. The SoL is two years. You've long since forfeited any hope of a successful suit. Municipalities 2 Years 2 years for claims against state, requires written notice to State Appeal Board within those 2 years. http://www.statutes-of-limitations.com/state/iowa Does Lisa know you'll never make her wealthy from your bogus suit? Does she know that you opted to forfeit any chance of filing? -- Kent Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons... for thou art crunchy and taste good with ketchup. |

Is Perjury a CIVIL COURT matter? It can be, and since you wanted to sue based in part on what you claim is perjury, it's relevant. But continue to lie to yourself (and presumably Lisa) regarding your futile suit. -- Kent Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons... for thou art crunchy and taste good with ketchup. |
