We both have two children but one was taken one year due to the fact that the child was reported by centerstone and someone involved with the care of our first daughter. The first child (girl with multiple disabilities) was taken from the home with CPS agents and only my girlfriend and the daughter lived with the baby at the time with her grandmother. She didn't have a crib for a few days but the child was taken away anyways although the crib was going to be at the home that morning. The case was transferred from greensburg to north vernon eventually after me and my girlfriend got together.
North Vernon spent at least a year or more trying to keep the first child's case. We kept saying for months that we wanted to voluntary terminate and they kept going on and on. Around the end, they kept saying that we were going to terminate it involuntary and we had to say it many times before the lawyer had to step in at court.
Here is information on the second child. Me and 3 people got arrested the same year which is this year. We only had the child two months. The peron that is supposedly supposed to help us get the first child comes over one day and a few days later a cps agent comes over finding something that she isn't supposed to that I didn't know that was on the desk. Marijuana Seeds. She asks what is it and I didn't know and she says that I know what it looks like. She puts in the child in inhome chins and I can't find this on google or even in-home chins for that matter. A month or two later she comes on a friday and then she comes on a monday. If she wasn't going to find the smell, I believe that she was going to take the kid anyways. She smells something that smells like Marijuana. Many things smell like it and I was on the computer the whole time. She comes back with a police officer all the sudden after talking with us.
The police said that they couldn't smell the marijuana when they came. They searched the house and said that if we wanted to get a warrant we'd have to be in handcuffs until they got one. My girlfriend wanted to cut herself with scissors and the officer attempted to use a taser if she didn't do what he asked. It wasn't in the report. They arrested 3 of the individuals but me so far. They kept asking me if I knew where anything was. I didn't know anything of course. I didn't want to stop the search and get handcuffed. I went on the cop car with the officer and I got my charges read to me and he said its going to be a 48 hour period in the jail. I said that i smoked something a month ago and a year or two ago. Anyways, I didn't inhale it a month ago. Two years ago. They did find paraphernalia and seeds including syringes in the bedroom where my girlfriend and I weren't staying. I didn't know anything about it. How would they know that I smoked at the apartment a month or two years ago? I didn't. I didn't even know what they were doing in the bedroom either.
I went to jail 48 hours and when in jail me and girlfriend went to court to see the judge to agree to the boy's chins. We got out of jail and had another case worker for the second kid. We moved to my mom and dad's and did visits. We never had in home visits. The previous case allowed us to get transportation to the visits and the foster mom's home for visitation. This case did not and this case did not allows us to do anything although we both are on disability and don't have reliable transportation.
I and my girlfriend went to court for our criminal case and got the same charges but no judge wasn't present. The lawyer and prosecutor was only there. We couldn't talk with the prosecutor or judge but the lawyer was present. It was a plead. One year of probation and 40 hours of community service for a crime I didn't commit and I wasn't involved in. I still have to glasses cause I get major headaches in the sun and thats an extra $100 since I have to spend in order to do my community service.
The casa involved in the case lied to and on the report. She said we shouln't get the kid back although she only spent an hour with me, my girlfriend, and kid.
Nothing was mentioned in court what we were doing to get our son back.
After court, the main person involved with DCS decided to take a two week vacation and she has never arrived to check the home to do in home visits. We live in a apartment now that we have gotten for a month. Nobody from DCS or the agency that tries to get our son back never showed up. I don't know why the main person at DCS shouldn't have a replacement for 2 weeks or a vacation for that matter. Children and Families don't take vacations from child car. Why should they? She is probably very busy since she came back and her voice mail box is full.
