Child Prtotective Services stealing children without cause - 3 views

  •  
    This article is just appalling. I can not believe the horror stories that these parents have and are actually living. They have lost their kids to the system that was put in place to protect children not take them away from good parents. Seems the parents are guilty and can not even prove themselves innocent in CPS's eyes.

    I am speechless, I would never imagine there would be a corrupt system involving government kidnapping! This is unfair to good parents and it is just ridiculous some of these parents were denied the right to a fair trial to prove themselves innocent.

Guily until proven innocent - 2 views

  •  
    This article shows a point of view most people do not think about nor are they faced with this situation in their personal lives. Being accused of a crime and presumed guilty by the media, society and sometimes family before even being tried for the crime.

    This article is very interesting! I completely agree that because of the various forms of media in our society today, and the influence they have on the public, people accused of crimes are usually immediately assumed to be guilty. The authors suggestion that names and pictures stay out of the media, while still informing employers, family, or anyone else who comes in contact with the accused is a great way to ensure privacy if they turn out to be innocent, but also to keep them from victimizing others in case they are in fact guilty.

    This topic is not brought up a lot, but it should. This article provides a very good explanation behind the saying "innocent until proven guilty". It also explains that not all of us follow under that saying. It is a saying with actual meaning behind it and more of us need to follow it.
