Subject: Typical DCF Multiple Failures- Hartford Courant New Artticle

Date: Friday, June 09, 2006 04:17:16 [View Source]

Here we have the classic case of what DCF does wrong.
See the video:
http://actionlyme.org/Psychiatric_MumboJumbo.wmv

False and extremely bizarre false allegations were
filed against me by my wacko sister Nancy Martin and
ex-husband Donald Dickson who both refused to help me,
as did DCF three times. I have high functioning
autism, which is defined by a lack of a personality
(see Temple Grandin), and the reason for the lack of a
personality is, as Grandin says, autism is like being
an anthropologist on Mars (people are inconsistent
and unpredictable- typified by Carolyn Martin's
unpredictable violent explosions of rage)
http://actionlyme.org/CAROLYN_VOSSLER_MARTIN.htm

Now my disabled daughter is not going to school at
all, much less getting care for Ehrlichiosis and Lyme
disease, and she hates her father:
http://actionlyme.org/THE_REAL_DON_DICKSON.htm
who continuously filed false allegations against me in
order to not pay child support. His brother did the
same thing to his ex-wife. DCF never prosecutes false
allegations.

In the end, after DCF forced me to plead guilty to
being a terrorist because I filed a RICO complaint
against Yale:
http://actionlyme.org/USDOJ_COMPLAINT_RICO.htm
having all Yale people perjure themselves and invent
my psychiatric history for the perjury record of the
court, the State of CT decided they had no one
qualified to assess me, which was what I told them in
the first place:
http://actionlyme.org/actionlyme_children_with_lyme_di.htm

The only people abusing or neglecting my children were
the DCF, my "family," the kids' schools, and the State
of CT, and of course Donald Dickson who continues to
abuse and neglect the children
http://actionlyme.org/THE_REAL_DON_DICKSON.htm

The Inkel family is being accused of causing dysthymia
in their children, four years after the removal, when
the data says the removal causes the dysthymia, and
the Inkels are not allowed a lawyer, have a gag order
about not being allowed representation by Judge Carl
Taylor, nor are they allowed to bring any witnesses,
like doctors, to testify that the children were not in
danger or dysthimic before the removal. Four years
after removing their son, the Inkels are only *now*
being given a "trial," in which they are clearly
blaming the Inkels for the trauma the DCF caused to
their children:
http://www.traumacenter.org/van_der_Kolk_Complex_PTSD.pdf

How can DCF manage other people's children if DCF are
not only retarded themselves, but their "records" are
100% lies? 'Proving DCF is far more mentally ill than
any of their victims. It is Carolyn Martin, Nancy
Martin, and Donald Dickson who belong in the nuthouse,
and James Phillips should at the very least lose his
license, if not be prosecuted for perjury as a
forensic psychiatrist for the State of CT.

Since when does Ted Kaszynksi testify in front of the
FDA and file complaints with the Department of
Justice? That is just plain delusional on Phillips'
part. Lyme is a brain disease, first and foremost.

DCF are the stupidest people I have ever met. I got
their "training" manual. It is for 4th gtaders and
there is about one technical word in it: asthma. All
the rest is made up psychiatric BS, since psychiatry
is *all* made up. The State of CT diagnosed me with
absolutely everything, including "mental retardation"
*and* "dangerously intelligent." The only time there
are not fairy tales being told in DCF-psycho land is
when parents tell you what DCF does.

Most importantly of all, the psychotropics *CAUSE*
dementia, agitation, and disorder, and that is what
the *SCIENCE* says. Verify independently.

http://actionlyme.org/MCGLASHAN_PSYCHIATRY_UPDATE_WE_HAVE_NO_IDEA_WHAT_WE_ARE_DOING.html
http://actionlyme.org/BUNNEY_YALE_BRAIN_DAMAGE.htm

This is why you should never join one set of faily
talers with another, like DCF and DMHAS, because when
they have no valid case of abuse or neglect against a
parent, they can simply deploy DMHAS to make it up,
remove the kid, and then continue to blame the parent
for the trauma signs DCF causes.

My kids are only *NOW* being abused and neglected in
the "care" of the "sociopath" Donald Dickson.
http://actionlyme.org/DIANE_CRYING_DCF_HELPED.wmv
Here is my 13 year old sick daughter complaining about
her placement with the insane and violent sociopath
Donald G. Dickson:

"....he will go crazy on me. dont tell anybody
but once he threw a chair and a dictionary at me. i am
writing to karen (don't
know how to spell her last name) and telling her all
about this. is there
anybody else i should write to?
i love you mommy"

Appeals Ruling Faults DCF

Says Agency Failed To Give Girl Care Ordered By Court

By COLIN POITRAS
Courant Staff Writer

June 9 2006

The state Department of Children and Families'
repeated failure to provide court-ordered psychiatric
care for a troubled girl who had been removed from her
family has brought a rebuke from one of the state's
highest courts.

DCF officials Thursday protested the Appellate Court's
decision to uphold a lower court contempt citation,
saying they tried their best to provide services for
the child referred to in court documents as Leah S.
They are considering an appeal.

But agency watchdogs said the ruling exposes the
shortfalls that continue to plague the state child
welfare system and place hundreds of children at risk.

"This decision is one more indication that the most
consistently negligent `parent' in Connecticut is the
Department of Children and Families," said Richard
Wexler, executive director of the Virginia-based
National Coalition for Child Protection Reform.

"Leah was a troubled child when the Department of
Children and Families took responsibility for her
care," Wexler said. "After bouncing her from foster
home to foster home and offering no help to her or her
family, Leah almost certainly is a lot more troubled
now."

In a nine-page decision released late Wednesday, the
Appellate Court found that Superior Court Judge Thayer
Baldwin Jr. in Middletown was justified in citing DCF
for contempt in September 2004 for failure to comply
with three separate court orders to take care of
Leah's "unmistakable and urgent" psychiatric needs.
Baldwin also ordered DCF to pay Leah's mother, who
sought the contempt citation, $500 in attorney fees.

Leah was taken from her parents on April 9, 2003,
after DCF social workers convinced a judge that her
parents were unable to care for her. A subsequent
mental health evaluation showed Leah had chronic
depression, bipolar disorder, attention adjustment
disorder and other behavioral problems.

Leah's violent and aggressive behavior, coupled with
suicidal and homicidal thoughts and daily migraine
headaches, caused problems for the foster families,
case records show. During her various stays in foster
homes, Leah reportedly tried to hurt a family cat and
was arrested for assaulting a 2-year-old foster
sister. At one point, one of Leah's foster mothers was
forced to sleep in a hallway because she feared Leah
would hurt her children, the ruling said.

Although DCF's own workers recommended that Leah be
placed as soon as possible in a therapeutic group home
or residential treatment center where she could
receive intensive counseling and care, the agency
instead bounced Leah around four different
non-therapeutic foster homes for seven months where
she suffered the possible effects of overmedication
and where her psychiatric condition deteriorated, the
ruling said.

Appellate Judge Thomas A. Bishop, who wrote the
decision, called the case facts "troubling."

"While Leah was in foster care, the department failed
to provide her with mental health treatment, failed to
provide her foster parents with adequate support,
failed to provide her parents with counseling classes
designed to educate them on how to raise children with
mental health issues and made no effort to facilitate
counseling between Leah and her brother," Bishop
wrote.

The Appellate Court dismissed DCF's contention that
the court's expectations of the agency were vague and
unclear and, as a result, the agency could not be held
in contempt.

Bishop said DCF was intimately familiar with Leah's
needs and failed to provide the same kind of mental
health care it had accused Leah's mother of failing to
provide when the agency took Leah.

The ruling "highlights the importance of appropriate
mental health treatment for children with specialized
needs," said Susan B. Carr, the Waterford attorney who
represented Leah's mother. Carr said Leah's removal
from her family hurt both.

DCF spokesman Gary Kleeblatt said the agency has
changed greatly since 2003 when Leah first entered
foster care.

Kleeblatt referred to a federal court monitor's
assessment of the agency released Thursday that showed
DCF has made significant gains in conducting mandatory
mental health assessments of abused and neglected
children, meeting case load standards and in reducing
repeated incidents of neglect and abuse in families
already known to the system.

The monitor's report showed DCF has met 15 out of 22
court-set performance goals, the agency's best showing
since the monitor began evaluating the goals two years
ago. The DCF needs to meet all 22 goals to be removed
from federal court oversight. A federal judge started
supervising DCF's performance 15 years ago after
Connecticut child advocates sued the department for
failing to adequately help thousands of children in
its care.

"The work in this case dates back three years. We
believe there is solid proof that our practice has
improved since then and there are many more resources
available in terms of service," Kleeblatt said.

But attorney Martha Stone - one of the lawyers who
brought the lawsuit that placed DCF under federal
oversight - said Leah's case illustrates the serious
failures that continue to undermine Connecticut's
child welfare system despite its recent successes in
other areas.

"The bouncing of kids with serious mental health
issues from one non-therapeutic foster home to another
was evident in 2003, and sadly is still occurring in
2006," said Stone, now executive director of the
Hartford-based Center for Children's Advocacy. "This
case sends a clear message to DCF...that merely giving
a child a roof overhead is not enough."

Federal monitor Raymond Mancuso in his latest report
said DCF, despite its improvements, continues to
struggle to meet children's emergency placement needs.
Mancuso said multiple placements are "devastating" to
a child already coping with considerable trauma.

After studying emergency placements in DCF's Hartford
and Meriden offices, Mancuso said he found there are
"placement crises on a regular and recurrent basis
that adversely affect the well-being of children in
the department's care."

Both DCF and Carr declined to discuss the details of
Leah's case or whether she has been returned to her
parents' care.
