This is no different from child trafficking.

Legal child trafficking.

This is happening in Missouri also. I am a grandmother wanting my grandchildren and get every excuse why I can’t have them. I am a law abiding citizen. We the people need to stand up to this government.

We need to change laws because CPS is getting to much power. We need a new bill to be passed. Especially for families who are not abusive to there kids but fallen victim to a corrupt CPS system.

I do not have children my self but I have 4 neices and nephews and my sister had to deal with DCF. When this happened I BECAME A DCF TARGET AND A TARGET FOR HCSO. Let me explain..... I am EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGE ABLE IN CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATE LAW !! I became their worse nightmare. My sister and brother in law signed POWER of Attorney for my 3 nephews and my niece to me.What this did was ENABLE ME TO ATTEND THE FAMILY COURT HEARINGS WHICH ARE ALWAYS CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC !!!

My two youngest were also illegally kidnapped from thier school and transported in a cop car and released to cyfd!!! These false agents need to be stopped, arrested, and sentence to prison for thier criminal actions and criminal mentality!!!!

They need to be held accountable for their actions

They need to interview more people and families like this especially us former Forster kids will tell you the true horrors of foster care but let me ask you this are you ready to hear the truth??

I would like to be part of this lawsuit. My son is in foster care. Hasn't been adopted yet as far as I know, but they took my rights and refuse to give him to my family who loves him. My son is the one being punished the most being ripped away from everything and everyone he's ever known.. I never harmed or neglected him on the contrary I was a very involved parent that loved and cared for him more than any other person in this world.

It's happening in Michigan, too. I've lost 5 grandchildren to racism and lies; simply because we couldn't afford an attorney.

This is very true. There are thousands and thousands of families that this has happened to around all states. I will be following this case

I cried watching this cause some of my childhood was like this I will never have a kid now so I don't have to fear this anymore CPS is evil no matter what there called trust me avoid these people at all costs.

Sue the state for trillions

The system is working exactly the way intended: divide families. It's a business. Kids "in need" are the product. When a state shows they need funds, the government gives them $$$

This happens everywhere please flee if you're in a state with heavy Foster care agency flee for your own good this is being written by a former Forster care kid so that right there should tell you something.

This is so sad but VERY true. They tore my family apart. No one in our family had seen my granddaughter in over 18 months. She was adopted by strangers.

This is happening to me and my family right now. I live in Arlington Texas. They have taken my babies. They have done everything to keep me and my family from getting my children. They are legally kidnapping my babies...

This is happening in every state

I am doing the same thing because it's not right and sickening 😢 the system is corrupt and all DCF does is destroy our children's minds but yet they will give our children to some of the DCF workers family 😑

They are running a legal baby mill

My five grandchildren were adopted to a woman who beats them. The children gave me pics and videos of the abuse. The abuse hotline did nothing.

Nobody should feel this pain. I hate this for you. I hate it for me as well. They destroyed my family and my life. Stay strong brothers and sisters. These disgusting excuses for humans will get what they have coming.

My family and I are living this out, word for word, as we speak. We have put everything in our lives on hold or completely canceled so that we can live in a hotel in Florida to fight. The issue is finding people in the right positions to fight with you as the corruption is spread wide. It's been pure hell aside from some visits with our family member that we are here for.

I currently in the battle of hell with THIS as my life story and my poor girls. All 3 of us are separated! And I'm still fighting 💪 The staying strong part while your children are stolen and you still have your rights is honestly as insane as it sounds.

Cause they want a paycheck and I'm a grandma going through the same thing.Amen so true.

This is exactly what happened to me and my 5 children I feel and live that pain everyday.

This government kidnapped all of my kids . I am a shell of myself.

There doing this here in NE Ohio, How can I be heard please help!!! Ohio had already adopted my grandson out last December, please save our children & grandchildren from this corruption!!!

Sue the nurse for false accusations

That’s what there doing to me in Staten Island fighting since 2018 they told me I can’t file a lawsuit 😢I’m going to pray 🙏🏽 I feel your pain

Exactly what is happening to us!! When we told DCF I had lost my kids 20 years ago their whole attitude changed! Florida law says a child can’t be placed with anyone who has had a felony conviction of child abuse or neglect. My record is spotless, not even a traffic citation. The DCF investigator used only my 20 year case on the home study(judge ordered it)and lied on it. When I complained to attorney general and they forwarded it to DCF to “investigate”. Their investigation consisted of asking the supervisor what happened, and case closed. And, we adopted the baby’s bio brother years ago. They STOLE my grandson!!

This is happening big time in TEXAS. Our governor has placed special protections on CPS and CASA and made them Untouchable. They can lie to the judge and even sign the judges signature on paperwork and there is nothing you can do about it. We have experienced everything in this story and can't find anyone to help us fight CPS and CASA. Our Family Law Attorney dropped us as clients when he thought he was going to have to fight CPS.

I’m in Lake County Florida and I did everything DCF told me to do and past with flying colors, or so I thought. They then turned around and told me because I am on Social Security Disability, I didn’t make enough money to raise her. I had read on their web site that when the relatives don’t make enough money, DCF has a fund to help us. When I asked about that, they told me there was no funding. Made no sense to me. I haven’t been able to see my granddaughter since September of 2019 when she was first born. I couldn’t take her at that time because I was in the middle of hip operations. I recently was heard by a judge and he ordered that I could have one hour, once a month , supervised visitation with her. I had to go downtown once again and redo my finger prints once again. Now Im still waiting on hearing when I can see her. I want to get on this wagon to be a part of this court case and have reached out to Octivia Brown. Hopefully I will get a responce and in return how I can go about fighting this decision. Im mad now after crying for 4 years!

I’m a father who hasn’t seen my son in eight years. His mother was caught in Casper, Wyoming in a hotel room with several strange men she was high. She was drunk, and she was trying to give sell or trade away my son when he wasn’t even six months old. I was under the assumption she was visiting her parents in Montana. CPS said their main concern was for the safety of the child so they decided to try and reunite him with a mother who told them that she didn’t love the child. She didn’t want the child and that she was not mother material.CRAZY. Not butter year later she was pulled over in Montana drinking and driving with him. I got a call from CPS just to let me know that they were going to try to reunite him with the mother. The courts treated me like it was our who had done these things and still to this day. Their main concern is to collect child support. I haven’t seen or heard from my son in eight years. I’m waiting patiently, for I’ve given up on any hopes of reunification through the courts or the justice system. Some days it’s almost unbearable. other days I scrape bye. The day will come.

we are in L A county facing the exact same circumstances. without adequate funding for legal representation they handle me and my family any kind of way we are desperately seeking help and assistance to help fight for our rights and bring to attention how the system that's suppose to bring families together is the very system that tear us apart. LA DCFS has been falsifying document, witholding critical evidence, having secret meetings and even having court proceeding without inform the Parents and overlooking highly qualified family members and choosing complete strangers, in addition the child was tooken as retaliation from a lawsuit that was filed due to police abuse. please help

The whole system is broken and has been for many years

This is happening in Manchester Connecticut. I have the proof and evidence from 13 years ago when DCF stole my son from me and his mother.. we are still together as a family and long to see him or meet him one day.🙏 Please someone help investigate this modern day child trafficking

I had the same thing happen to me. I am retired LEO and I was found unfit.

They illegally took my boyfriend's kids

I'm sorry but what does being a white "pretty" blonde blue eyed kid have to do with children being unlawfully stolen from their families, kids from all races are stolen from their families in Florida and that needs to be brought to light, criminally charged and those kids reunited back to their families

This happened to me and I was a foster child and I didn't know I had relatives in the same county until I was much older

I’m literally dealing with this right now! 😢

This is trafficking.

How can this government sanctioned racket claim to be humane, and cause destruction and death under the guise of " protecting the most vulnerable"? Federal charges, as well as wrongful death charges, and many more, must be made against DCF, and those who associate themselves with DCF, must be arrested, charged, convicted, and sent to prison for committing crimes against humanity. This must be done in the name of the families, both then, now, and to the children who are still being abused in foster care. The truth about DCF must be told regardless of what DCF says. Also, a thorough investigation must take place as well as being audited consistently. When DCF claims to "protect the most vulnerable", they're really taking about themselves. Why? Because as of late, their so-called state sovereignty immunity does not protect against being exposed, nor themselves being reported, arrested, and subsequently facing legal prosecution. Continue to stand in your truth, family.

My grandchildren were adopted out and placed when all the time I was refused access to them both!!! Massachusetts is a hot mess in dcf

This is happening in MASSACHUSETTS!!

This is big bucks, over $2000 per kid per month. So there is too much potential for corruption,

I know a family in New York that is going through this very same thing is it possible for them to join this lawsuit.

I’m going to be doing this in NE Ohio soon! For my grandchildren & family! Prayer’s please 🙏❤

I know how this family feels.

This is sad to here unfortunately. Something has to be done in other states to protect parental rights as it relates to keeping their children.

This is nationwide issue

It's in Connecticut and no one will fight

This is happening to daughter and son in law in Idaho, if you are interested there is a web site, Bring Baby Lilly home if anyone interested, the CPS has lied through their teeth, trying to keep my daughter and son in law from adopting family member, this is in post falls Idaho, sickening

happens in every state!!! i was denied my grandchildren for no reason

Has happened to me and my family and it's a terrible feeling every day to wake up not knowing what may happen. BURKE CO NC

It's happening everywhere

Right they are crooked as hell

Im here because if Take Care of Maya . Thank you for brining this to light. Dcf.. corruption!!

Texas is doing the same! This has got to stop! Add my family to this group. I am a grandmother trying to get my grandkids, I raised one already and he's now 20.

gossip needs to stop start returning our property

This is happening in Virginia too. Happened to my family. Bedford Co. , Va. did just that.

Creepy are you kidding me All this just to adopt out a child? that is absolutely horrible..that is disgusting disgraceful and this happenes in every state to alot of innocent family..

This happens way more thn most know.

This is happening to me currently in Deschutes County Oregon!

How do I file a lawsuit?? Against the Dept. (CPS) and the Judge?? My son was wrongfully snatched and just found out that the call they said reporting Medical Neglect was not made. I have proof. There is soooo much that I need to tell. I have tried reporting caseworker, attorney and judge but they lie to the Ombudsman and Internal Affairs, which do not require proof/evidence to prove my complaint frivolous. Yet I have proof to back up my complaints, that no one seems interested in!! PLEASE HELP. Thank You!!

Same is happening in Massachusetts smh

All of us parents have been damaged by the state of Florida just need to seek reparations and monetary damages

Sad 😢

I want to know everything about this case. I am going through this exact thing. My grandma was discriminated against by the supervisor saying "she was too old".

I've lived in FL since '75 and from way back then I always had the feeling they were in effect stealing children. Just different things I saw over the years, you could just tell from hearing of cases that they weren't trying very hard to reunite and did things that seemed way off.

Is DCF a human trafficking organization? What am I to think? There was and no reason to keep my granddaughter from me. I haven’t seen her since she left the hospital in Leesburg Fl in October of 2019. What do I do? How can we be heard? My tears are all dried up. I have so much to give my girl, so much love, but others have made her life decisions to live with folks who aren’t her blood. Is this about politics? Is this about money? DCF has not done anything to keep my granddaughter with blood relatives! I’ve been here the whole time and call to inquire and so much. But slam. I don’t get it!

Jury trails for parents

Ever notice they don't do this with the older kids with behavior problems? Nope they send them to family or foster care. They want the beautiful well behaved kids or babies to make money for adoptions.

Child Predator System combined with Floriduh.....that's about as bad as it gets!

Am going through this same thing please help me

Florida seems like a terrible place to live i heard about guardianship kidnapping and abuse and now this its terrible i don't have kids but I have dealt with cps as a kid dcf needs to be trained to actually help with families sad i hope for the families

This is not just in Florida. It is all over the US.

Phoenix Az does this too

The problem ...support foste care when the families are weighed with more strain and cause more struggles

THEY TOOK MY KIDS WHEN I WAS RECOVERING IN THE HOSPITAL FROM A MVA! Not at fault but they wanted to put that in the allegations, mind you I did not see till 4 months later. Was NEVER served anything, or even told me the removal of my girls. PARENTAL ALIENATION since day one! My civil right for DUE PROCESS was denied or was never given any information, resources or communication before or during the hearings. My voice and my childrens were silenced! They coerced me into thinking I have no rights or unable to do anything. My kids are BOUNCING around in the system SEPARATELY. My oldest has been baker acted over 8 times within 2 months and countless more. Hospital visits, placements, and so much more I am not made aware of!!! Days, weeks, and even months I would not be able to see or speak to my kids. They still continue to hold me from my children. Both my daughters have wanted to come home since the unlawful removal of them! They never wanted to leave and were not in any IMMEDIATE danger or harm during the removal either! SO MUCH DAMAGE just so much they are causing my daughters and I to endure! They have not contacted any relative residing in Florida and have not took one single step to place my girls with the Fictive Kin who is WAITING and WANTING to help, but only spoke with the case manager once! I was able to remove my daughter with by staying until law enforcement came. But nothing done from the countless acts of abuse and neglect, and attempted murder on my oldest daughter and even told me to my face in front of the officer IT WAS MY FAULT! ALL by the G.A.L told my kids I never wanted them, never loved them but wanted to adopt my daughter. I called CPS 3 months before my auto accident to help with my oldest daughters SEVERE mental disorders. But no help, and still both my kids are abused daily!!! HELP!! ADD ME TO THIS LAWSUIT!!! I have spent days learning their policies, our Fl statutes, the Federal Statutes, DCF guidelines, and exhausted just about every resource to prepare THE TAKE DOWN of this corrupt system. Over 450 children have DIED EACH YEAR for the past 3! Its on DCF's website for the public to see. KCI shows on there website of extreme turnover percentage of over 120% and the caseworkers are overloaded. Just another beautiful innocent child was taken too early here in Marion County due to no supervision. TO choke to death, yes choke to death on a medical latex glove.... SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO SAVE OUR CHILDREN and actually get the help and resources parents need with the communities support!!! We can no longer this! And it is SICKENING to say, that I have more evidence of abuse, neglegence and even abandonment to my children on the systems behalf! My case alone will break this corrupt system! My next steps, Internal Review and FBI to help with the FEDERAL laws that have been broken. I am going to SAVE my kids and I will NOT STOP until the TRUE SAFETY and 'BEST INTEREST' of our children are out of the devil's business and brought to JUSTICE!!!

This happened to me 😭 it's been 3 years my 5 babies are seperated and suffering they are trying to terminate our rights in may

Almost a year ago my nieces ex husband took her and their six kids by gunpoint away from their home and to Wyoming and South Dakota where he was from. They reach his friends home and that night he killed himself. When the cops came and a cps worker come they see dirty children and a dead man and a gun in his pocket and guns in the van. They wouldn’t believe my niece about them being taken by gunpoint. Within 30 minutes of them finding her ex dead cps took my nieces kids. And then a couple days later they put Tabi in jail for bs charges that weren’t even real. They wanted to try to say she committed murder. This is such a long story. The charges were bogus. Most dropped. She got out of jail and has been trying to get her children back since. My cousin has tried to steal two of her kids. I had two of them and they were taken from me and placed into a home of someone they didn’t know. This story is so much more involved, too involved for a short comment here. But hearing this story makes me wonder what the hell is going on. I’ll tell my story if anyone is interested. My niece is fight our cousin, another couple the little boy was placed with, and we are hoping the courts do the right thing in June. But we do not trust the system.

Something really needs to be done about these monsters . I am in Arizona and the system had "corrupt files" which resulted in placements that should not have happened. It delayed court cases and so on. DCS here used to be CPS until they were sued.

How this is allowed. Is horrible. The most corrupt system needs to end for the children who are kidnapped! Let the people have the right to charge them.

cps needs to repent

That is true

Happens in Texas too.

Hernando County should be investigated! Falsely acussing a parent of misconduct, witness suppression and gag or jail, arrested the mother. All this while allowing the ex(the father) to continue his abuse. The father has mental health concerns and is an employee of the city!

This exact situation happened to my family. It’s been a little over 4 years, our boys were taken, for alleged neglect. They tried splitting my husband and I up, by saying the boys were not allowed to see me if my husband and I were together. They falsified documents and drug tests. I lost the little boys, that I once had they are not the same well behaved boys, all they did was take them from us, and cause them trauma,and much much more. Then, they were gone, just like that once they were unable to get the boys from family. But did have my mother in law convinced we were terrible and unfit even though we were productive members of society, with absolutely no reason to keep out boys from us. We desperately wanted to fight against them, knowing what they were doing, we didn’t have the funds or resources, it’s got to be the worst feeling in the world you loose a piece of yourself. I pray 🙏 you are able to sue and get back what little of your sanity and hope and love that’s left from these monsters. Please keep fighting for the ones of us that couldn’t sincerely Kansas U.S.A.

im starting to think this is legal human trafficking

Family preservation my a**

I wonder if anyone has ever heard of a judge reserving jurisdiction and not allowing parent to Plea guilty/ not guilty at the beginning of the court process of a 2nd removal? When 1st removal was five years prior with different circumstances? So they somehow put it all together when it was two different scenarios. Then ultimately terminated parental rights using first time removal against parent, but child was returned then and the 1st situation was worse because the child was actually hurt, but from an accidentally injury. Which they really pushed their opinion , with no proof or facts, strongly asserting someone had to have intentionally harmed the child because accidents can never happen.. When 2nd removal child wasn't even hurt at all in any way shape or form. They don't need facts or proof when they trick or force people into a contract, I mean caseplan. plus civil burden of proof has different standards verses criminal.? Not 100% sure but they make these in shock/traumatized parents agree to a pre-made plan ( that they were supposed to be included in creating, according to the rules so it would be case specific to their needs) but after parent agrees willing or not to Caseplan the state doesn't have to prove anything regarding the removal. In fact you can't even bring it up at trial, apparently you can only talk about the case plan!! It's a wicked backwards system full of liars and theifs claiming they are helping families. When in reality they cause more harm compared to whatever the parents may or may not have done 9 times out of 10... I'm glad people are finally starting to fight back. I hope some justice can finally begin to be served and force them to follow some of their own rules....

Louisville ky is doing the same thing ...

I’m going through this now…. Be Aware

This happens in Az as well

This happened in Utah

Houston is in this same scrutiny...cps is a mess and we need to get together...I'm going through something simular.

ILLINOIS SHOULD CHANGE ITS LAW RIGHT NOW AND ALLOW REALITIES LIKE THERE GRANDMOTHERS CAN HAVE RIGHT. governor jb. You want to do something for minorities give us our power back.

It’s happening in Escambia County, Florida
