Just How Much of Falsifying Records Has Child Protective Services Done to Cover Their Tracks?


This is just a sample of the cases where CPS Workers have falsified records to keep their jobs and cover their tracks. How many more are there in the different states? How much cover up has there been? How many cases are really not cases, just lies? My guess would be many more than we will ever know. There is no one hold them accountable, there is no one watching the watchers. The reason is they are allowed ot operate under secrecy – they don’t have to be honest. They can lie, abuse and do anything else they want to and are allowed to get away with it.

    how do you go about turning in a worker who is falsifying these records because it seems asif one hand is washing the other and everytime you go up the chain of commands it just gets worst for you. My casemanager falsified medical records for my son and also reports for calls that where made about ant bites and also 2 black eyes on one child and a split eyebrow on the other. The youngest was removed because of what was said to be medical neglect only now they see that it was not medical neglect they did not have their facts straight in that matter. So they are trying to cover their trail and the lies just keep getting better and better but more obserded. what can i do who do i talk to?

All DCF workers have been lying, playing mind games with me in regards too my Innocent seven year old Daughter: Workers have said over and over that my child wasn’t taken as a form of punishment, she wasn’t taken to hurt me, They’d be very concerned if she didn’t want too return home, they believe/feel that i didn’t intentionally, malisciously cause harm: That they were concerned about my “Anger Issues” Now they’re telling me that they’re not asking/requesting for my parental rights to be terminated based on what i may or may not have done causing my child too be taken into custody: but now they’re concerned about my Mental sate of mind: Well i can honestly tell you that i’ve never been in Jail/Prison nor have i ever been in ANY form of mental Clinic/Hospital/Facilityor ever been made too take ANY form of mental medication.

    All I can say is WOW what the heck are we going to do. With the cost to taxpayers in the millions for each of the falsified cases and the emeotional damage done to the brith parents the children and the adopted parets we have a very big problem.

    I am the Author of the book “In the Worst Interest”.

    We will never end child abuse when the social services across the country can side step the law and falsify documentation for a $10,000.00 per child bonus that they are being paid by DHS for getting foster care children into adopted families.

    I am glad to see that there is at least a way that I can speak with a group who can relate to the corruption within the CPS unit. I live in NY and it has taken me thousands of various google searches to finally try to find an answer of how to make these workers held accountable for falsifying documents. Although my 5 children have remained in my care case notes and court petitions have been falsified and I have made this known to my court apponted attorney and still no resolution. The past 3 yrs I have fully complied with my court menu and they still falsify documents to keep this case ongoing. This is emotionally draining. I have been harassed and threatened for my kids to be taken away constantly while complying fully. This is a complete waste of tax payers money to be able to falsify court documents and have a higher official mandate unnessecary services. How do I complain about a worker falsifying documents and how can I obtain the case note that the child welfare workers? http://www.14215couponqueen@gmail.com

  11. Children are suffering every day because they simply want to go home. These people who kidnap kids from loving homes don’t care because they get paid for it. I think they should volunteer their time if they are interested in this field…if they have children, take theirs for a week or so, so that they can feel the pain we feel…Alaska Office of Children’s Services are criminals working for a criminal cabal. Their day will come, but in the meantime, we suffer from not having our babies home…

    My story , I’m sorry I’m not leaving a comment about someone , didn’t know how to get something wrote on here . My daughter who is 15 was kidnapped by CPS false allegations . My daughter told the judge it’s lies and wants to come home . The only time my daughter been abused is by where COS put her , starved , threatened , stuff stolen . Sexually assaulted . This is documented . The CPS said and told Kayleigh if she complied and we did she would go home . We went to court and the CPS lady raised her had to a oath and lied several times , I was in shock that this could happen in America and this is Wayne County West Virginia they do what they want . I took papers to the judges office to prove she lied several times and took them to the CPS worker . How can she commit purgery and get away with it , how does the judge let this happen . Judges rule we can’t control my daughter therefore she is to stay in foster care . My daughter has gotten strait As and has not done anything . She was always on the honor role at home . She has always listened . I’m so afraid they will take her for good . I need a lawyer that costs 7,000 and more and most lawyers don’t want anything to do with Wayne county . What do I do ?
