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 seem 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 amd 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..
