In US, Baby Bath Pictures Yield Living Hell for Family

September 23rd, 2009 13 comments

Did you ever see the baby pictures of you as a little kid playing in the bathtub that your parents took? What about the pictures of you learning to use the potty? Most of us have such pictures of ourselves. At most perhaps we felt a little embarrassment. But according to American law enforcement employees, we’re supposed to feel upset and know that our parents are sex criminals who sexually abused us as children.

According to terroristic American government law enforcement agencies, if your parents took such pornographic photos, then your parents are child sexual abusers and pornographers who should be put on sex offender lists without trials. You should have been taken away from your parents for months or permanently until they could prove their innocence, something that is often not possible to do to the government’s satisfaction. Meantime, you as a child should be treated as confiscated contraband subject to whatever treatment the government wants to do to you, even if it damages you for life or kills you.

Demaree Family Abused by Government

These are among the lessons that the Demaree family of Peoria, Arizona, found out in 2008 to 2009. Parents Lisa and Anthony took 144 family photos during a vacation in San Diego, California, in August 2008. Eight of the photos depicted their small children, ages 5, 4, and 1.5, while the kids were playing in or around the bathtub without being fully clothed. When they returned to Arizona, they went to get the pictures developed at a Wal-Mart. Big mistake. A Wal-Mart photo developing employee reported the family for child pornography. Very soon thereafter, the police and CPS swooped in to take all three children away from their parents for more than a month as the government investigated and turned innocent photos into an excuse to abuse and terrorize the family.

San Diego County Grand Jury Cites Further CPS Misconduct

July 19th, 2009 15 comments

Despite more than two decades of repeated investigations by the San Diego County Grand Jury of misconduct by the County of San Diego Child Welfare Services (aka San Diego CPS) agency, the abusive agency and its illegal and harmful actions continue unabated. Safeguards to fix errors and abuses have been perverted into meaningless mechanisms to cover up wrong-doing and insulate the County of San Diego and individual social workers from criminal prosecution and civil litigation. The agency is unrelenting in its refusals to correct its own problems, and continues to run roughshod over the law, civil rights, and best interests of children. The County of San Diego and its derelict Board of Supervisors also avoid taking necessary actions to correct the problems.

Personal DNA Sequencing “More Affordable” at $48,000

June 18th, 2009 No comments

Illumina Corporation, a San Diego biotech firm, on June 16, 2009, announced the advent of relatively low-cost personal full DNA sequencing. For the low price of $48,000, you can have your entire DNA sequenced for use in detecting genetic diseases. Someday, that data may be useful for creating gene therapies and custom drugs to improve your health. $48,000 might sound like a lot of money, but it is really a bargain. Until this month, Illumina charged $96,000 for the same service.

Just several years ago, it cost billions of dollars and many years of work to get the same information. Consider the Human Genome Project to see how it took 13+ years and $3+ billion to sequence 92% of the human genome for the first time. Celera Genomics, founded by Craig Venter, developed shotgun DNA sequencing technology that brought down full DNA genome sequencing to $300 million and a few years, and companies like Illumina have improved and cost-reduced the technologies even further.

Torture of the Wade Family by San Diego CPS

PC Kidnappers

On the morning of May 9, 1989, eight-year-old Alicia Wade awoke complaining of pain deep in her midsection. Her father, 37-year-old Navy enlisted man James Wade, and her mother Denise, took the girl to the NAVCARE facility in San Diego, where initially she either couldn’t or wouldn’t explain what happened. The doctor found that the child’s anal and vaginal regions had been torn in a sexual attack and would need to be surgically repaired. When informed of this, both parents showed great distress and began to weep uncontrollably. The NAVCARE doctor immediately called the local Child Protection Services.

CPS immediately suspected family involvement for two reasons: the rapist, they believed, had not removed the child from her room, and Alicia did not immediately complain of pain. The CPS worker interpreted the hours the Wades had spent at NAVCARE as a delay in reporting the crime, and thus an additional sign of guilt.

Though shaken by what had happened to their daughter and also by the hints of accusation they felt coming from authorities, the Wades cooperated fully in an interview with CPS. They could not hide the fact that they were overweight, which child welfare authorities often take as evidence of general neglect. They did not hide the fact that Denise Wade had been molested as a child and that James was a recovering alcoholic who twice blacked out while drinking in foreign ports. They did not know that they were waving “red flags” that further substantiated suspicions toward family involvement in the crime. They had no idea that authorities were already beginning to build a case against them and were taking particular aim at James Wade, who was a walking bull’s-eye because he was a white middle-aged male and a serviceman in addition to his other defects.

The Wades were more interested in the facts. During an evidentiary exam at the Center for Child Protection, their daughter Alicia calmly told the physician that a man came through the window, claimed to be her “uncle”, took her out in a green car and “hurt” her. They would have had a better notion of the ordeal ahead of them if they had known that on the space on the medical form for “chief complaint in the child’s own words”, the examining doctor ignored Alicia’s testimony and wrote only that the child showed “total denial”.
