Child Protective Services laws and agencies are abusive to families and children. This site provides support and information to parents falsely accused of child abuse by Child Protective Services.


FightCPS does not advocate or condone violence or illiegal activities of any kind.

FightCPS is intended to help people learn enough about the law to be able to successfully defend themselves and their families against false accusations using legal documents and strategies that put parents in a stronger position when they go back to court.

Child Protective Services, CPS, has devastated and destroyed hundreds of thousands of families in America during the last thirty years leaving a trail of broken hearts, broken dreams, and shattered childhoods.

Rather than helping families, government agents have used unconstitutional laws in Juvenile Court to rip children away from their loving parents, break asunder God-given, natural, parent-child bonds, and adopt the children of the grieving out to others who profit financially with large monthly adoption subsidy payments.

Child Protective Services must be stopped! The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed. We must work tirelessly to inform the public of this very dangerous travesty of justice. We must keep faith knowing that if there is a God, there is an answer and a way to end this heartache.

Child Protective Services Agents - please come to your senses! Family destruction on false or trivial grounds is wrong, reprehensible, and inhumane.

Fosterers - be aware that for the money you get you are holding much-loved children away from their grieving families while the parents are forced to perform a service plan that is anything but a service to them. I call this hostage holding for the government. This is not kindness - to help misguided government agents destroy family relationships and break loving bonds.

CPS workers and fosterers - I ask that you now let the children of the innocent return to their homes where they are truly valued, adored, and loved by the parents God gave them.

Family rights are God-given rights. And they should not be ignored or postponed. Every moment these loving parents and children spend separated from one another is a torment beyond what anyone should ever have to bear.

It is unworthy of human dignity to allow this terrorism and torture of families to go on without saying something, speaking out, and trying to make a change.

Site mission: To provide information and support for families attacked by Child Protective Services and child welfare agents, especially those families facing false or trivial accusations of child abuse or neglect; and for researchers working to protect natural family rights.

Colorado: Another Family Destroyed By CPS Social Workers

Baby Alyssa had bone fractures, but why? Social workers reacted by taking her away from her parents, Dave and Tiffany Cuin-O’Shell. When they took baby Alyssa, Tiffany was hysterical. Wouldn’t you be?

That was only thirteen days before she died. Police officer Dave O’Shell, suspected of child abuse and expecting to be arrested at any time, apparently snapped. He shot his wife, then himself thirteen days after the Colorado CPS social workers violated their lives.

Only two days later the foster mother said at a court hearing that the child had something wrong with it. Genetic tests were ordered and it was discovered that baby Alyssa had spinal muscular atrophy. This prevents muscles from developing and caused her 11 bone fractures.

It was never Dave’s fault – he was innocent of the child abuse charges.

Tiffany’s parents fought for custody of baby Alyssa and were able to take her home, but her health deteriorated. She died last Tuesday and has gone to be with her parents.

This didn’t have to happen.

I found this article through Dana’s new blog: DHS steals children for $$$Money$$$. She explains on her blog how her only grandchild has been taken by a woman with a criminal history, who works as a DHS social worker, apparently.

Colorado: Foster Parent Arrested For Death of 2-Yr-Old Foster Child

The family of Alize Vick is in need of $2100 for funeral expenses. A fund has been set up at Wells Fargo bank. See comments to this post for more information.

Twenty years ago, articles like these were suppressed. But now the media lets us know when foster parents are accused of killing foster children. States can no longer cover up the murder of children they claim to protect.

I read about these tragedies often, but many times don’t write about them here. Not only is it a source of fear and depression for people who use this site, whose children are being held in the foster care system, but I honestly can’t keep up with telling you about all the on-topic articles that are published. For more about children killed in foster care, see In Memory of Children Protected to Death by CPS.

The latest news is that a two-year-old girl, Alize Vick, was killed in a foster home in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The foster parent, Jules Lynn Cuneo, 34, is accused of throwing Alize against a coffee table where she sustained a head injury. Instead of immediately rushing the child to a hospital or calling an ambulance, she put her in the shower and sprayed water on her, apparently in an attempt to revive her.

I don’t know if this foster parent is guilty of intentional abuse, or whether Alize was injured accidentally. Her first story was that she was bouncing Alize on her lap when the girl fell back and hit her head on the coffee table. Perhaps her decision to try to revive Alize in the shower was the most reasonable thing to do.

In any case, another “protected” foster child is dead, and the foster parent is being held without bail. The foster parent’s two natural children have been moved to another foster home, along with Alize Vick’s younger brother, Anthony.
