HELP:
I am writing to ask your assistance, because I do not
believe that the Department of Children and Families, the Police, and the
Courts followed procedures when they barred me from my family and stripped my
son of his father following an incident at Country Club Day Care Center.
Rae Weir of the DCAF had her police friend arrest me for
child abuse following the incident at Country Club Day Care Center; wherein, I
went to give my son his medicine, but found that he was being abused, and
decided to take him out of the center and was attacked by the staff (3 men and
3 women). They pulled me out of my car and eventually went into the car and
removed my son. I did not fight them, but it is said that one of the women
suffered a broken arm.
While I was in jail for assault and child abuse, somebody
got the arrest charges changed to “Child Abuse With Great Harm”, which I am
told is a 3rd degree felony. It has been 3 months, and I have still
not been told what child I am supposed to have greatly harmed. They say I was
charged with child abuse because my son witnessed the staff of Country Club Day
Care Center attack us, but they still have not said what child was “Greatly
Harmed”.
When the policeman came to my job to arrest me, I asked him
why I was being charged with child abuse, and he did not tell me. He said that
we would talk about it at the station.
I have since discovered that after I went to jail, he and
Rae Weir went to my family and told my son’s mother (Fannie Cooks
When I was released from jail the next morning, the guard
processing my release was upset, because she said that I should had been
released the night before; that the other guards said that I was not released,
because they could not find me. She asked me to complain to the Commander, but
I did not want to make any waves in case I have to go back to the place.
During the out-processing, another guard pulled me aside and
had me sign 2 documents that he said were orders stating that I was not to go
near the alleged victims, and that they were conditions of my bail. I asked him
who were the alleged victims, and he said that he did not know and he asked me
who they were. I told him the day care center, and he said ok. We did not read
whatever it was that I signed; come to think of it, I don’t remember seeing any
text on the papers; they were folded.
I knew that I had been treated unjustly and was in a state
of shock. Fannie (with our son, Stephin) picked me up from the jail. Because I
was arrested for child abuse, I was afraid that Stephin might be one of the
alleged victims that I was ordered to stay away from, so I did not know if I
should be near him or his mother.
So I went to Rae Weir’s office to get help and guidance. She
had her detective set in with us as I told her what happened at the day care
center, not knowing at the time that she was behind the unjust proceedings. She
took notes and lied about everything, and at the end, flipped the page and
wrote a short paragraph or two, and told me to sign it; stating that I knew
that I was not suppose to go home or be near Fannie and Stephin.
I now believe she did not take notes, but wrote a confession
and had me sign something that I did not say, and she presented the
“confession” to the court the next day to get the court to outlaw my going home
or being near my family.
I was in court for less than 5 minutes when the judge took
my son away and barred me from my home and essentially gave away my belongings.
She gave me 30 minutes under police supervision to get my personal things.
She did not tell me why she was barring me and taking away
my son.
I have been in front of her 2 more times and she still has
not told me why, but she did make it clear that if I do not show up for court
in December, that she will declare Stephin, dependent. I think that means that
she owns him.
In all of this, Stephen did not get to tell his story. He
did not get due process (after all, he is the one having his rights taken) and
he most definitely is not being protected by the state. He does not need
protection from his father, but from an abusive state servant who is punishing
him for an incident at Tutor Time Day Care Center, where a father alleged that
his daughter had her vagina licked by some of the children on the playground.
Rae Weir of DCAF abused her POWERS and threatened, coerced,
and deceived my family and me. She lied to the court and directed the policeman
to abuse his powers. She even tried to get him to change his report.
The court must not have followed procedures. The procedure
cannot be to throw a man out of his home and bar him from his only child,
without even telling him why.
