I think you are missing the point. Why was there a second trial if they were found not guilty in the first trial? The reason is that there was NO trial. These people were in family court which is a slap in the face of our judicial system. The lower court found insufficient evidence to take these children away so they sent it to another court until they got the “verdict” so to speak. The family is under gag order to not talk about the case. If there was sufficient reason to take these children then these people should be facing a TRIAL and JAIL time.
Social services can take people’s children on an accusation. Then YOU have to prove that the accusation is FALSE instead of them proving it is true. THAT is what is wrong with this picture. Family court is a JOKE.
Not what happened in my case. My son came back from his dad’s house with bruises all over his back and red marks on his face. I immediately took him to the doctor, who hotlined it. DFS investigated and said that Logan was abused but he was too scared to tell if it was his dad or his dad’s girlfriend. There was NO threat whatsoever of jail time for them. At most they were required to take parenting classes, which they never did, and nothing else happened to them.
