Subject: HOT OFF THE PRESS: Here is the Federal Judge's Ruling on Coerced Cooperation against CPS/DCF. 

The ruling in this case makes it clear that threatening to remove children to gain a parent’s cooperation is unconstitutional. Today, We just got the copy of the ruling against DCF/CPS that they can NOT threaten or coerce you into cooperating with them no more than the police can threaten or coerce you into cooperating with them.  This ground breaking ruling is in the attachment as a pdf file. 

Pass this on to your attorney and anyone else who has been abused by DCF/CPS.  Below is the news release by the organization that argued the case. 

Judges also can not force parents to cooperate with DCF for that also violates parents rights to remain silent.  A judge can not force parents to cooperate with DCF, no more than they can force you to cooperate with the police.

COURT OF APPEAL, FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION ONE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA

In re Antonio G., No. D051079
Orders denying maternal grandmother's request to have children placed with her are reversed and vacated in part where county agency and the juvenile court essentially ignored their duty under Welfare and Institutions Code section 361.3 to properly consider grandmother's request to have her two dependent grandchildren placed with her. The agency did not reevaluate grandmother using the criteria set forth in section 361.3(a), and the juvenile court did not consider those criteria in assessing her as a placement option.

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
BELTRAN V. SANTA CLARA COUNTY
Filed January 24, 2008

"Furthermore, as prosecutors and others investigating criminal matters have no absolute immunity for their investigatory conduct, a fortiori, social workers conducting investigations have no such immunity. "

Lying, evil CPS workers stomping on Constitutional Rights, fabricating evidence, making false statements and filing false reports no longer have immunity.

Cal·um·ny  (kāl'əm-nē) pl. cal·um·nies
1- A false statement maliciously made to injure another's reputation.
2- The utterance of maliciously false statements; slander.

These sociopathic monsters have been getting away with FEDERAL CRIMES and FRAUD for 30 years with immunity and impunity.  This has not been going on in some dark corner.  It is the standard method of operation, SYSTEMATIC and PANDEMIC.

When will there be restoration and compensation?

..."In a forceful opinion, US District Judge James G. Carr wrote: “Despite the Defendants’ exaggerated view of their powers, the Fourth Amendment applies to them, as it does to all other officers and agents of the state whose requests to enter, however benign or well-intentioned, are met by a closed door.  There is...no social worker exception to the strictures of the Fourth Amendment.  ...Any agency that expects to send its employees routinely into private homes has a fundamental obligation to ensure that those employees understand the constitutional limits on their authority.”

The caseworkers in the Walsh case admitted they had never been taught anything about the Fourth Amendment or search warrants. 

The court further ruled that the police did not have probable cause to detain, frisk, and threaten to arrest Walsh, since he was not breaking any law but merely asserting his “fundamental right to be left alone.”
