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.
