But, see, the agency can say if a judge has ordered them off a case, they have no alternative but to back down. That is what I fear the agency will do.
I don't think the DCF will say this. The greater danger is that the DCF will drag its feet and not file for protective custody of Terri in time to save her.
If the agency was gonna baçk down, why, there was no reason for them to get involved in the first place. Theodore, listen to this...their JOB BY STATUTE is to remove people from abusive situations if necessary. Now if they let a judge tell them no, I'm gonna kill this person whose case you're investigating, then ALL ANY ABUSER WOULD NEED TO DO IN THE FUTURE IS FIND A JUDGE WHO WOULD TAKE THEIR SIDE IN A LEGAL DISPUTE INVOLVING AN ABUSE SITUATION, AND THOSE ABUSERS COULD IGNORE THE DCF AND THE DCF COULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT IF THEY LET GREER STOP THEM NOW.
Defeatist attitudes are bad for your prayer life. And he didn't order them off the case. He denied the 60 days and intends to destroy their evidence, Terri.
Greer wrote in his order, "What is particularly unsettling is that when asked whether DCF believed that part of its mandated duty was to review orders of this court, the answer from DCF counsel was "yes.' "
