Juvenile Court Judge John Phillips, who ordered the boys removed from the Del Bosques’ La Porte home last year after remarking in court that the 50-something grandparents were too old to raise them, recused himself from the case.

But he didn’t go quietly (Falkenburg, 2009).

News Report

Phillips began to be slammed for removing two very happy and well cared for children from their grandparents, stating the 50+ grandparents were too old, and this was unfair to the children who would need their parents long after they are adults.

CPS gave positive reports for 12 months, but when Phillips set out to have these childen adopted by strangers, odd reports of drug abuse, and other hearsay information began to be culminated.

If we don't have a case, then let's just make it up as we go along.
Carole Strayhorn, ex Comptroller, stated a child is five times more likely to be seriously injured or killed in foster care.
Rep. Hupp stated a child is four times more likely to be seriously injured or killed in state foster care than in the general population.

The agency designed to protect children has a higher percentage of serious child injuries and death, than the parents in the general public!

House A - A child may be at risk of harm.

House B - A child is FOUR to FIVE times more likely to be seriously injured or killed.

Which house should the child live in? A ? B ?

The state of Texas believes it is better to take a child from Home A and place them in Home B.

I am not a math whiz, but this is insanity at its best.
Let's keep doing the same things over and over, expecting different results!~

Who has the most magnificent penis?

Which is worse:

1. A ten year-old child is alleged to have shown his magnificent penis to a female child.

or

2. A 62 year old, former police officer, and instructor in criminal justice, cons a 17 year-old student to come to class during the holidays, puts his hands all over her body, tells her what he wants to do, sends repeated and inappropriate text messages, and posts on her myspace.

San Antonio charged the Ten Year Old child with felony sexual touching of a child under age 17. Does this make sense when both children are under age 10? He was locked into Juvie Detention for over nine months (children do not get time served) and has been placed in a facility for sexual offenders!!

New Braunfels charged the 62 year old, former police officer, with a Class C Misdemeanor!!


By Roger Croteau - Express-News

New Braunfels, Texas Teacher charged with Class C Misdemeanor for Sexual Assault of Student

Affidavit: N.B. teacher's advances were sexual

"[..]Police took photos of the text messages and MySpace message after the girl reported it.

The officer who did the initial investigation labeled it an improper relationship between educator-student, a second-degree felony. But the detective who obtained the warrant wrote that the facts did not satisfy the elements of that charge and filed the misdemeanor assault charge.

Trollinger was a peace officer before becoming a teacher. He left the Comal County Sheriff's Department in 1992 with the rank of lieutenant, a department spokesman said. [..]

On Monday, students were sent home with letters from the principal to their parents, notifying them that a teacher had been charged with assault by contact, a Class C misdemeanor, in an incident involving a student."


------------------------------------------------

Would someone please explain how a 13 year old child, who is in state foster care is charged with a Class C Misdemeanor for cursing at another student.

Does this equate with a 62 year old teacher (who knows better) of criminal justice makes sexual advances toward a student in repeated text messages, inappropriate messages on the teen's myspace, and inappropriate sexual advances on school property, during the holidays?

When a 10 year old male showed his magnificent penis to another child, who asked to see it, he was charged with First Degree Felony sexual assault of a child under age 17; he was TEN years old! This same child has major disabilities, rooted in lead poisoning from 18 months of age, and he was railroaded into signing a plea agreement in Judge Laura Parker's court. The child cannot read nor does he understand what the plea was about but Attorney Ramond Deleon had already tried and convicted his young client.

Afterward the child was crying, "I thought those papers meant I could go home." After spending over nine months in San Antonio Juvenile Detention, this child was ready to sign about anything.

This is a disgrace!!

Criminalizing Youth For Non Violent Disciplinary Infractions

Texas Children With and Without diagnosed learning disabilities, are charged with a Class C misdemeanor, and ticketed for nonviolent disciplinary infractions (such as shouting in the hall, tardiness).

Not only is this the wrong way to deal with such minor infractions, these petty offenses have become a burden to taxpayers and families. The legal representation and processing personnel are required to respond to the broad differences in how schools’ administrative powers criminally charge young people for cutting up in class.

-- Should nonviolent minor infractions be charged and prosecuted as a Class C Misdemeanor?

-- Should a child with Asperger’s Syndrome, be placed in mainstream classes, without consideration for the child’s disability? Because he is in foster care, he is charged with a Class C Misdemeanor and he does not have parents to advocate for his special needs.

What Purpose is served when at an early age, children are criminalized for behavior that was once dealt with by a trip to the principal’s office?

Presently, Chapter 35 of the Texas Education Code allows school administrators to determine whether to ticket children with Class C misdemeanors for nonviolent disciplinary infractions.

Who is My Representative?

2007 Legislative Session

A 10 year-old child is taken from his family and placed in foster care on Friday evening. Monday morning, his foster parent took him to school and enrolled him in the new school. No one knew of his previous school records, his special ed placement, and the reasons for being in special education.

The child is angry that he has been taken from the only family he has known. The first person to tease him unleashes his rage and he screams and curses at this child he perceives to be picking on him.

Instead of being sent to the principal or counselor, he is ticketed with a Class C misdemeanor and before he leaves foster care, he has a full criminal record because he was angry that he was in foster care. A probation officer will now be part of his life.

Are we the only organization to see a serious problem with these actions?
