From what I've heard she isn't even allowed to go to school.

I've read that they won't allow her to attend mass or receive communion, either.

They are even willing to let this girl die rather than admit error.

IMO, they want her to die to make the case a moot point.

The citizens of CT need to get much more involved in this, to demand action and create a huge public fuss, seems like that is the only way to possibly impact this case because the courts are not helping.

I think you just hit the nail on the head.

> I can’t believe that this would occur as presented. There must be something left out.

I have to agree. Something stinks about this whole story. It would be helpful to hear ALL the details about what is REALLY going on here.

but now involves a bureaucracy which refuses to admit it was wrong

Just before this story became public, the MA DCF was already taking a lot of heat because a 5-year-old boy in DCF custody disappeared; it was 2 or 3 months before anyone knew, and then it came out only because his sister told her teacher at school. I believe the social worker who was supposed to be checking on him and her supervisor were fired.

Then it became public that DCF revised its guidelines on who could be a foster parent, saying that a felony conviction (even for violent crime or soliciting sex from minors) should not be an automatic disqualifier. (A decision which Deval defended publicly, saying if someone had a police record from years ago for stealing a candy bar -- yes, that was the example he used -- it shouldn't be held against him.)

Then there was talk of the -- IIRC -- 100 children who died in DCF custody over the past 3 years. And another 100 or so missing children in DCF custody, but DCF kind of dismissed those, saying most of them had attained their teens and were considered runaways.

Deval has steadfastly refused to fire the head of DCF. She says she submitted her resignation, but he refused to accept it.

One reason you don't want to be in a hospital over a long period of time is the sleep deprivation.

The health care bots, including the nurses and the doctors, don't understand when to quit bothering the patient.

I find people that say they submitted their resignation but it wasn’t accepted to be hard to believe.

She could quit whether or not it was ‘accepted’.

She should be released to her parents to see if she improves.
I bet she would improve.

At this point, what the hell difference does it make?

Sounds like the People Republic of Taxachusetts will find her dead one morning of an apparent suicide (which DCF will arrange for her)...

This piece from LifeSite is the most concise account I've seen: Justina Pelletier’s Parents File Emergency Petition With Supreme Court to Regain Custody

In MA, it's actually "the Supreme Judicial Court."

The all too frequent (apparent)confusion between "loose" and "lose" just kills me when I see it.

“She’s very intelligent “

She misspelled “vary”

Most likely she is being drugged heavily to sedate her emotional responses.....

Is this part of “Romney Care” the model for “ObamaCare”?

Waiting for mitt's water carriers to tell us all how this is just fine because he only inflicted this system on people at the state level.

I estimate that Freepers get that one right maybe 10 percent of the time.

It's a real mystery to me. The words are not even pronounced the same way.
