Department of Children and Families News Letter
Social Workers Help Children, Families, Vulnerable Adults in Need
There are several Social workers who really care and take their
cases very personal and not just a job or paycheck. Those are few that
are deserving of recognition, here in the 20th circuit.
Since 2005, I have been a court watcher at the Lee County Justice
Center, I have seen success stories, However, I have seen more Horror in
Family and Dependency courts.
In my experience with the Florida Child Protection System, I can
assure you what I have seen and heard is beyond disbelief. I know every
one of the Fl Status 39 and stay up to date on all revisions, which I
find that the Sub-Contracting Agencies are NOT complying with at all.
I and my fellow court watchers across this state , find this Extremely Disturbing.
As a voice for the last 8 years, I have made my position very well
known. So known, that my door was knocked on too many times with false
allegations with the hope that one day, Something would stick.
Having the knowledge I do, Your case workers were unable to prove or pursue.
In 2010, They finally found something to suck us into the system
of corruption. With NO Allegations or Association, My grand-daughters
estranged mother, who had abandoned her in 2004 and lost her rights to 1
child in New Jersey (2010) , Gave birth while having a drug addiction,
which was passed to another new innocent child. Now, we have a
legitimate case with this mother..
Because my son
and her were never married and there was NO legal court order of
custody, We became victims to the system. My son had to jumped threw
hoops of fire for 2 1/2 years before his portion of the case was closed.
The mother and other father, did not attend court hearings and were non-compliant with their case plans
The one thing I have found to be a benefit from being a victim
and a court watcher, Is I know all the players. I have done my
research, I have watched them closely, I listen to them intensely and I
can see the money trail that hold families hostage.
The system is Black and White, There should be No shades of Grey
for either the Court or the case management. The Status are defined as
such to be followed, Not to be interpreted by anyone differently.
Here in the 20th , I can say honestly that only 1 Supervisor and
her staff at DCF , Follow the laws, Genuinely, in the best interest of
the children and help to the fullest degree, Above and Beyond, To help
the children or families reunite.
The Courts, Family Court does not reaffirm Standing orders from
Dependency Court, Dependency Court holds NO weight in Family court at
all. The entire Family Court system is for profit. Regardless of any
standing order, You must BUY your child to have legal custody. The
entire Family court system is not in the best interest of the family or
the children…
In closing, I have some very strong advice. The 20th Should be
investigated and NOW.. Rumors are that several seasoned DCF employees
are leaving . Those in charge, have Never done their job to know their
job. You are about to see the this circuit implode. Working lunches at
the bar are not meant to be.. Lucifer Services supervisors and case
managers should not be entertained by DCF Operations.
The click of drunks, Should NOT be openly seen and heard during court recess.
Professionalism is Non-existent, when the public can hear them
cursing and bad mouthing fellow workers. One of which was referred too
as a fucking cunt for knowing how to do her own job and the job of that
OPA . Making sexual remarks about male staff members is very
inappropriate to say the least and offensive..
(Not to jeopardize the job of the seasoned well known person, she
was speaking of, I will keep that to myself unless needed in the
future.)
I will be watching and listening in the coming weeks, The
interest of what will be happening is too hard to resist and I
sincerely Hope, You take my advise. Remember the Black Eye the media
will have in store, as they feed off failure. And, The BEST INTEREST of
the families..
