Hey all,
Mum, who suspected ex was sexually abusing children, took kids interstate after finding out her ex raped her sister as a child. Dad has been charged with 2 counts of r**e and 2 counts of child abuse from Mum, and 1 count of r**e from sister. DCP was involved under family safety plan only. Mum notified DCP same day in both states and why. Address and phone number given by end of the day.
Kids removed by new state 3 days later under "at risk" based on "flight risk" and other trumped up hearsay and false claims under investigation order stamped 1 hour after notified of address - 3 day investigation. There were no court orders, no parenting plans, no family court rulings. Dad had obtained 6 mth old by deceit only 3 weeks before from breastfeeding mother. Oh... and department worker on the case grew up with dad's family and has known them for like 30-40 years.
1 order of investigation extend to 28 days. Appeal for 2 weeks to get legal rep.
2 order of investigation. 30 mins before entering court room. Mum & lawyer serve "updated" OOI adding kids being moved back to original state. Judge rules yep. Kids gone.
SA Orderofinvestigation. Mum not served or contacted - happened 1.5 days later.
1 child (6mth baby) placed back with Dad. Tried to place unbiological 3 year old with alleged peadophile as well. Judge adjourned 4 days. put 6mth with Dad, 3yo in fostercare.
OOI (42 days) held 4 days later. No time for legal aid or to even find a lawyer willing to touch it. No court appointed lawyer allowed. Mum tries to get adjournment. (denied). Mum yet to receive departments evidence. Arrived interstate today.
Dept stating Mum has mental health dx, is on methamphetimines, is non compliant and a whole heap of other complete hearsay and rubbish. Sister was threatened to have her children removed and wrote affidavit saying Mum used duress to "make up a lie". Has not withdrawn police statement.
Have evidence proving entire dept case is a lie. All drug tests clear. No mental health dx. And have transcripts and audio of all meetings and phonecalls showing dept is deliberately and knowingly committing purjory. They have threatened to throw me in jail and throw away the key if I use it in court. Have said we are "protecting our legal rights".
All lawyers are saying - you can't fight the govt.
QLD ruling was unprecidented and 4 barristers were consulted.
Huge abuse of process.
How the heck do we fight this?
How do we find someone willing to fight this?
Can the govt workers be charged with perjory?
Can this be ruled as a mistrial?
Seems very very wrong and injust to just go... sure no worries.. ok... take the kids and we won't complain.
