Exposing the Child Protective Industry for what it really is.

THE SYSTEM: WHAT YOU'RE UP AGAINST
The legal system is set up to protect the child at all costs. The theory in general is, if a judicial mistake is made, let it be on the side that assures the safety of the child. This is a fact that can greatly hurt you and your child.
From the moment an allegation is made, you will generally be treated as guilty and separated from your child. Most interviews are conducted with the assumption that something did occur. An unbiased investigator is rarely seen. Most interviewers are trained to believe that children don't lie, especially in divorce and custody situations.
The Court tends to believe the "experts", even if the "expert" is a poorly trained social worker or a physician who has never had experience with an abuse case. A small child's testimony about an event that supposedly occurred up to several years before your trial is enough to convict you in many states, even if no other evidence of abuse exists. The attitude of the public and the media towards an abuse suspect is usually hostile and prejudiced in a trial situation.
THINK BACK TO YOUR OWN FEELINGS WHEN YOU READ ABOUT A CHILD ABUSE CASE. THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE UP AGAINST NOW!

ADVICE FOR THE ACCUSED
- Do have all interviews with the child videotaped.
- Take all allegations of abuse very seriously from the moment it occurs.
- Do hire an attorney who believes in your innocence.
- Do have the child examined by a pediatrician or (if appropriate) a psychologist of your choosing, if physical or sexual abuse is alleged.
- Do not rely on the legal system to clear you, even tho ugh you know you are innocent.
- Do not talk to the press.
- Do not take a polygraph or lie detector test.
- Do not take "good advice" from people around you who mean well, but know nothing about this type of problem.
- Do not hire an attorney who has not won this type of case in the past.
- Do not make any Plea Bargains or legal decisions with the prosecutor without careful consideration. No matter what you are told, you may not realize the implications of such action.
