A family in turmoil: A woman who works for CPS and whose job it is to
protect kids has her own foster child taken away. Three other children
were taken from a relative's home. The investigation started in August.

"They can investigate for a hundred years if they want to, they're never
going to find anything that proves we hurt that baby, 'cause we love
that baby," Foster parent Judy Winans says.

Home video courtesy of a neighbor shows CPS at her home Friday evening
taking her three foster children into custody.



"I'm angry that they just came in and totally traumatized my children,"
Winans says.

CPS left Winans' two other children at home, they're adopted. Winans'
biological daughter Mindee Macias is also a foster parent.

It's was her foster son's seizure that prompted the investigation.
Macias works for CPS as a caseworker.

"They're on one hand telling her we think you're a party to this child
being hurt, but we think its okay for you to come in and make decisions
about other people's kids," Winans says.

Winans believes in her daughter's ability to do her job. She's angry
because CPS isn't blaming anyone for the alleged child abuse. Making it
difficult to appeal.

12 News did confirm Mindee Macias does work for CPS. The agency says
they don't have any reason to believe Macias harmed her foster son. But,
doctors working the case say the injuries the infant suffered were not
accidental.





CURRENTLY CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES VIOLATES MORE CIVIL RIGHTS ON A
DAILY BASIS THEN ALL OTHER AGENCIES COMBINED INCLUDING THE NSA / CIA
WIRETAPPING PROGRAM....

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...

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.
