Trial of foster mother charged in Isaac Lethbridge death could wrap up
Wednesday http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/a...29/1048/SPORTS June 12, 2007 By JACK KRESNAK FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER The manslaughter and child abuse trial of a former Detroit foster mother could end by Wednesday, a Wayne County Circuit Court judge said this afternoon. Judge Vera Massey Jones dismissed the jury hearing the case against Charlsie Adams-Rogers about 12:45 p.m., telling them to return at 9 a.m. Wednesday for what she expects to be the final stage of the case. Adams-Rogers, 60, is charged with failing to protect two young foster children in her care last year. One of the children, 2-year-old Isaac Lethbridge, was burned and beaten to death by someone in Adams-Rogers’ home on Aug. 16, 2006. His 4-year-old sister also was abused, according to Detroit police. The children’s foster care worker, Karl Troy, formerly of the Lula Belle Stewart Center in Detroit, testified today that he saw bruises on Isaac on Aug. 4, 2006, but did not notify Child Protective Services, as required by state law. Troy, who testified under a grant of immunity from prosecution for failing to report suspected child abuse, said Adams-Rogers had told him that a doctor decided that the bruises were not child abuse. Troy said he accepted that explanation and did not contact the doctor. Adams-Rogers is charged with involuntary manslaughter in Isaac’s death and two child abuse counts involving both children. If convicted, she could be sentenced to up to 15 years in prison on the manslaughter charge and up to four years in prison on the other charges. Contact JACK KRESNAK at 313-223-4544 or . 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 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... 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. 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... |
