Default Abusive Ex-husband Makes Sure Woman Loses Son

Abusive Ex-husband Makes Sure Woman Loses Son
January 8, 2008. By Julia Browne

http://www.lawyersandsettlements.com...-violence.html

Dallas, TX: Mary's abusive husband, Robbie, vowed to make her pay
if she left him. She dared escape domestic violence, but due to
additional victimization by Child Protection Services (CPS), the police,
and her own mother, she lost her 8 year old son.

"After my divorce I moved with my son to a 'safe state', Florida.
Robbie followed me there so I had to get a domestic violence protective
order and he wasn't allowed within 5 miles of us. He did try to contact
me by email and phone on holidays, which I logged and reported to the
local police but it wasn't considered severe enough for an investigation."

"For six years in Florida I was happy. I'd gotten married and was
living the typical life of barbecues on Sunday and PTA. But stress from
the aftermath of that previous abusive marriage and living in constant
fear made things difficult and my new husband and I separated. In
October 2003, with my family in Texas I figured we'd be all right there
for a couple months but that was a fatal mistake."

It didn't take long for Mary's ex-husband to catch up with his prey.

"Just after the holiday season I reported his stalking behavior and
calls to the police department of a suburb of Dallas/Fort Worth. On at
least eight occasions they said, 'oh that's a Florida order, we're not
going to uphold that in Texas'."

"Getting away with minor violations made Robbie bolder. He
conspired with my mother to take my son away from me, even though he
wasn't his biological father. Together they made allegations against me
of mental and emotional abuse, of drug use, and they even claimed I was
in a baby-killing cult. When my son was born I cleaned up my life and
stopped any drug use. CPS did four different tests and found nothing at
all so in mid 2004 I was cleared of all charges of neglect and abuse."

Mary and her son prepared to move back to the safety of Florida.
Their nightmare was over... or so they thought.

"In May 2004 my son went to church and never came home. He was
abducted. When I reported it the police, they and a CPS agent showed up
at my door, not to give me news, but to get me to sign another
accusation of abuse from my ex-husband and my mother. I refused. My
attorney tabled a motion to have my son immediately released to me but
on day the court order was signed, the police came and took me to a
mental hospital for 'observation' based on a false affidavit."

"The doctor couldn't find any reason to detain me but during that
24 hours I was in that hospital Robbie, GrandMommy, the police officer
and a CPS worker broke into my apartment and stole over $10,000 worth of
property including all my home videos and photos of me and my kids, all
my legal files and evidence, electronics, medication and even my wedding
ring. Even our dog was gone."

Mary's son was placed in a foster home.

"Parents have to do something like take parenting classes, go to
rehab or counseling to have a chance at getting their kid back. I did
but they said I didn't complete their services just because I chose to
get my own counselor, not the one of their choice. They called me
uncooperative if I did anything that was against my civil rights but
even though one of the case workers wrote that my case wasn't of abuse
but of child custody they do retaliate, I hate to say. They ruled
against me because I challenged when I knew things weren't being looked
into, like my accusation of Robbie molesting children."

"The last time I saw my son was just before Christmas 2004. The
case worker arrived without him and said, 'we forgot to bring him'. But
that wasn't possible. He's nine years old and he knows when it's
Tuesday. The next day, December 22nd, they brought him. He had a black
eye, blood on his shirt; he'd been beaten. I never saw him again.

That's when I started my blog almosttuesdays.com which came out of
a poem I was commissioned to write for Child Abuse Awareness month. It
was all the things my son had said to me during out visits that we
shared that no one else knows about."

"When I realized he wasn't coming home I fell apart. I was in such
shock. I didn't have an attorney so I represented myself. Fortunately
I'm a paralegal so I could write my own pleadings but they were just
ignored. My son's name was changed, he lives with GrandMommy and I'm not
allowed to talk to him. Then Robbie was jailed in 2006 for child abuse.
I'm too tired to fight. How do you find an attorney when those hired by
the state to work on behalf of the kids say it's too hard to go up
against the system?"





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...
