MsFacetious, thank you for linking to Lily's page. I'm sickened beyond belief. Unfortunately many of the media links no longer work, so thank you for summarizing them so well. I've been to court a few times lately as a witness to behavior of two children, one who has admitted to being abused physically, sexually by her own father, the small boy too young to speak about it. YET, for a year now it's been back and forth, Dad ordered for this counseling or testing, doesn't do it, back to court, and Judge STILL hasn't removed his rights! Still hasn't charged him! Because the children are too young to testify is the excuse given! Even though the children's counselor has documented the words of the kids, and shown pictures the kids have drawn and are terrified of their Dad. For now, the kids aren't going for visitation because twice he has violated the order of having SUPERVISED visits only, and been alone with the kids. Only because family was watching the home, and called police immediately when they noticed he was alone. The courts don't do enough to protect these innocent babies from monsters that prey!!! A 4yr old isn't going to have 'a wonderful immagination" quote from that judge, and say Daddy said he would cut off my head if I told anyone... Daddy said he would kill Mommy if I cried. Daddy took my clothes off, and put me outside (during the WINTER) for peeing my panties. ETC... those are NOT things a kid just makes up!!! YET...we're still in limbo as to what will happen and if he'll get visitation back!! UGH! Why won't Judges read about cases like this and keep those thoughts in his mind when making decisions that could be life or death for a child!!!!
