Sabra requested that their two older children be allowed to keep going to their day care— with their familiar friends and routines—but the caseworker said no. The caseworker also continued to demand weekly check-ins with the Bruckers. Each time, she insisted on strip-searching the twins and commenting on natural bodily features, such as inverted nipples

The family declined this request. The new DCFS caseworker also informed Sabra that the Bruckers’ case file was completely empty of investigative notes

Wow. Just wow. They should be filing a civil suit against the DCFS agent.

realcaseyrollins OP ,

They might not have the money or willpower to deal with them any further at the moment, but I hope they do at some point.

So this person was stripping children naked and examining their bodies, making grossly inappropriate comments about their body features, and their folder had not a single investigative note in it?

This agent should be behind bars, in genpop. while their assets given over to the victimized children and family.

Right? How is this not a criminal investigation

I know plenty of parents that would turn it into a criminal investigation that the molester “case worker” wouldn’t be around for.

And rightly so. That goes way beyond “normal” or “acceptable”

Jesus fucking christ.

There were so many balls dropped during this entire fiasco you have to wonder if there wasnt malicious intent against the family by someone with an axe to grind, and a position high enough to keep them out of sight.

realcaseyrollins OP ,

I actually think the person who injured the child placed the report to cover it up and the hospital didn’t know at first, but later colluded with protective services to keep the perp out of jail (although it would not shock me if he or she was fired or suspended)

A_Random_Idiot ,

I mean, even then, a cursory examination of the file, showing the child had been in the hospital for days, with daily scans, proving no fractures until like the 4th day or whatever it was, Should have been the immediate first step, and ended there.

DCFS dropped the ball hard to terrorize a family and sexually traumatize the kids with their genital “inspections”. Especially with the fact that the file was fucking empty.

Think about all the time, money, and effort wasted on this provably false from the get go accusation… Then think about how they don’t even give a fraction of this time and effort to kids in actual bad, abusive situations.

NocturnalMorning ,

How did they conclude after seeing x-rays that the child’s bones were fine when admitted to the hospital that the couple must be abusing their kid???

I see you have never interacted with the hospital system

Doctors and nurses are great, highly qualified + they do magic. The administrative system that decides what to do on a strategic scale is pure malicious madness. It doesn’t surprise me in the least that they would decide to randomly accuse people of child abuse for no reason because it would make their inconvenience go away.

My parents have worked in a hospital in varying capacities from janitorial to administrative, to being the money people keeping the books balanced.

In the words of my mother, “the hospital owners will outright tell you ‘we don’t make mistakes so figure out how it’s the patients fault’”

She works trying to get insurance to cover things now and finally agrees with me that the while insurance system is a scam designed to fleece people out of money they already spent on Healthcare through taxes (because you pay more now in taxes for Healthcare than you would if the whole country moved to universal Healthcare, how’s that for “fiscal responsibility”)
