HB 2137 Protective Parent Act
IGNORED
HB 2542 Citizens Review Panel
SQUASHED
HB 2538 Grandparents Compensation Bill ~
IGNORED It costs more money for the tax
payers to place children in the home of strang-
ers where they are more likely to be abused,
but the State isn’t interested in making sure
Kansas children are safe or know their family
members and where they come from.
SB 262 Grandparents receive preference in
custody cases PASSED, NO threat to the
State or Judges, they don’t follow the law
anyway.

REMEMBERING 23 MONTH OLD BROOKLYN WHO WAS MURDERED
THE STATE SOCIAL WORKER CHOSE NOT TO PROTECT THIS BABY
A Kansas attorney general's investigation found
that a state social worker disliked a Coffeyville
couple and chose to do "nothing to protect" their
23-month-old granddaughter before she was
murdered in 2008.
Authorities said the toddler suffered brain
injuries after being beaten or violently shaken.
Her father's meth-addicted girlfriend, Melissa
Wells, was later convicted of first-degree murder.

April is National
Child Abuse
Prevention Month
By: Donna Roberts
I am sure most parents
think the way I did 6
years ago, "trusting of
the child protection
system". At one time I believed the system protected children from danger-
ous people and I now know that sometimes the abusers are the “system
itself” and not always the parents.
Kansas state statutes have loopholes that allow law enforcement free reign
of our children. We have a monster lurking within our state and it is the
Kansas Statute that allows law enforcement to place your child into
custody on "probable cause" without any court orders, no legal docu-
ment. Law enforcement can go to your child's school and remove your
child from your custody and place them in the custody of the police depart-
ment and hold them up to 72 hrs. without a hearing, they can use force to
remove your child from your home. Imagine being a child and you are at
school and you are called to the office and the next thing you know you are
in a police car with a detective and social worker and you are being taken
to strangers and you have no idea why. We must have laws that truly pro-
tect children but we also need laws that will not allow a law enforcement
officer to remove your child from your care because they can.
The above statement is a prime example of what is happening to child vic-
tims who tell of abuse, child victims are being re-victimized by the child
protection system. Children should be treated with dignity and respect after
they report abuse, not treated as if they have no rights, because they do.
We must not only protect children from abuse but we must also protect
them from a child protection system
that causes secondary trauma by re-
moving the child from the non-abusive
parent and place them in the home of
the abuser.

The Broken Arm,
By Matthew Brown
(9th grade essay, a few years ago)
This is the brother of the eight year
old girl who was interrogated in
Reno County.
Matthew wrote, ""After that terri-
ble, terrible February 11th, we had
been in foster care for three days
before we were finally allowed to
see our parents. They had won their
case ( but at the cost of my mom
losing her business ). I remember
sitting in my fathers lap, as watch-
ing him cry for the very first time. I
could tell how happy my parents
were to see us again, and I knew
that they loved me. This had been
one of the saddest and hardest times
of my life. I don’t think that I will
ever forget that moment"" http://

KS Court of Appeals Vacates the
Criminal Contempt Charges by
Nola Foulston and
Judge James Burgess
The Kansas Court
of Appeals found,
"If this is a crimi-
nal contempt, then
the court failed to
afford V.R. suffi-
cient due process.
Interestingly, the BURGESS
State now contends
that the contempt proceedings are to
be regarded as criminal in nature and
the district court properly imposed a
punitive sanction for indirect crimi-
nal contempt. This change of posi-
tion by the State cannot be ignored.
Even if we view this as a criminal
contempt action, we must likewise
vacate the sentence because the
court failed to afford V.R. due proc-
ess."
"Because the court gave the con-
temnor no way to purge herself of
contempt, we hold that sentence to
be wholly punitive. The court failed
to give the contemnor "the keys to
the jail." The court had no author-
ity to impose a criminal contempt
sentence in a civil contempt pro-
ceeding.
Therefore, we vacate the penalty."

KANSAS CINC LAWS
ARE UNCONSTITUTIONAL
In Kansas children are being taken
from parents on an allegation of
abuse and placed in foster care.
In Sedgwick County, the DA has
admitted to filing boiler plate peti-
tions against parents and has stated
that it is up to the parent's attorney to
correct that. This is the same DA that
was accused of bullying social work-
ers into filing false information. The
legislative post audit found that at
least one social worker in each re-
gion had been pressured to include
or exclude facts of a case.
If it is alleged that you raped a dog
or duck in Sedgwick County, you
will have a jury trial by your peers.
If it is alleged that you neglected or
abused your children, those children
will be taken from you and placed in
foster care. You will be in a civil
court where anything can and will be
said. There is no jury of your peers.
The parents are silenced by the
system, that their taxes fund, and are
only allowed to discuss how the case
was handled without revealing the
identity of their own children.
The Confidentiality Law is really
about covering up what the State is
doing to families. It’s NOT about
protecting the child’s identity,
constitutional rights or due process.
