I got my first affadavit done yesterday, fully expecting it to be ripped apart when I submitted it for review. On the contrary. My supervisor, the head investigator AND our OCC attorney said it was an excellent affadavit, thorough and well-written. I just hope I made the case sufficiently for the judge. It is a legally iffy case, even though there isn't a doubt in anybody's mind who knows these people and this case that removing the kids was the right thing to do. Our lead investigator told me he wished I hadn't had such a difficult case for my first one. So do I, but maybe that will make it a little easier in the future with a cleaner case. Anyway, I'm pretty proud of getting that done. The hearing will probably be on Monday. All hell is gonna break loose when I deliver these court papers to the parents though. Dad is a few sandwiches short of a picnic and has a bad temper (this is the guy that is being accused by some of killing the kid who drowned Labor Day weekend).
Well, I suppose I'd better get going. I don't want to be working too late today to catch the "debate" tonight. I am looking forward to seeing Dubya mop the floor with John F'n's poodle do. What time is it on?
I am driven from my unholy slumber to seek vengeance upon the living..Er..
*changes note cards*
I am awake because I was driven from sleep by my evil cat landing upon me with her full weight.
Major props Sweet! Be careful out there...
Omg Sweety, take care. I don't like the sounds of this at all.
Check back in as soon as you can and let us know you're safe if you are facing that Dad today.
