I am re-married to a black man, and I am a white woman. My daughter who just recently turned 8 is currently living full time with her father who drops her off to my parents 4-7 nights of the week. The reason he got custody was because my daughter, for whatever reason (I believe she was manipulated by my mother, a racist) lied to CPS workers and told them she was being abused by my husband, that I was being abused as well and that we smoked weed in the house with her. Even though the claims were unsubstantiated, my ex’s attorney was allowed to use the CPS reports in court, and my mother did a very good acting job on the stand. Not only that, but my daughter had been sent to a pschologist that I knew NOTHING about and told her the same stories… something HAS to be done about this problem!!! I miss my baby every day, and she lives a horrible life where she never knows what house she will be staying at or where her dad will be. And there is nothing I can do about it… Makes you feel helpless…

If you filed a Tort. WRITE WHAT YOU DID!!! I am filing a tort and am learning, Torts are hush, hush. I am confused on where to send it, what form, I’m I doing it write???
I will be posting my information on here.
So many people say you only have 180 days, however the Tort form I have says “according to Indiana Law, you only have 270 days from loss to file”.
Please, post what you did so we can follow.
I think what needs to happen now is EVERYONE needs to file a Tort Claim. Flood the AG with it. If I get anything back on my Tort I will help everyone. I want to lobby and get the child abuse laws changed, we need to ban together and it needs to be soon.

Chuck, if there were not so many false accusations and cases where children are taken when they shouldn’t be, there would be no need for this site and the site would not be here. If reading this site makes you mad, maybe you should find something else to do to make yourself happy.

If parents would take care of their kids that state would not have to…of course there will be a miskate when dealing with high volumes of cases but to think the system as a whole is bad is just crazy. reading through here makes me mad becuase some of the posts are people who need their children removed yet seek protection in numbers….

my kids were taken because my exbf was doing child porn. Now cps is trying to destroy my family and keep my only family member left out of my life by misconstruing information they have about him and putting words in my mouth. I know my father will never hurt my kids. What is more is they have been in the system for a year and a half and i still have an hour visit only when they should be in the at least 4 hour range away from the visitation place. Cps needs to be completely revampd with nothing but parents running the place. i mean if a cps worker abuses thear kids they get to keep them why cant we when the allegations are not true where in other cases cps workers can keep theiars when it is true. an angry hurt mom. thanks

I am in search of any parents that has had a CPS case in Owen county where they feel there rights were violated by the CPS office or its staff. My case was opened in Dec. 2008 and I attended IOP classes in Spencer, IN. and there was women in my class with me that discribed the same foul play from CPS workers and I am very interested in speaking with those women about a class action suit, I have already filed my Tort claim.

About 3 months ago my step-son made false alagations to his school that he was being abused at home. Vigo county CPS came to our home and removed him and ny 2 other kids. In court there was know proving ourseleves inicent because they took his word on what happened and wouldn’t even here our side. The judge did point out a few things that where not write to the cps people but did nothing about it. For one, Vigo county cps was called when we are in Parke county, IN. Second, CPS questioned my Step-son in a room alone with no parent, school official, or attorney present which she said was not right. We signed a case plan to do the classes that they told us to do and our case worker asured us that if we started the classes the kids would be aloud home. We have finished one class and are very much into the others and they still will not give us our kids back. We only get a 1hour supervised visit a week. We have no clue what to do and we seem to be getting no where with CPS. They just keep telling us lie after lie. The whole reason behind my step son doing this is so he could live with his mom full time where he has no rules and can do what ever he wants. If anyone can give me some addvise on things I can do to get my kids back or resources to help me I would greatly appriciate it. Thanks
