What is the story behind this woman MR? To be living in that level of filth herself, (ETA and to have such poor judgement about how many kids she could raise well), did she have something going on mentally herself?

The social workers and their supervisors and the judges approving all of the placements and adoptions also failed these children and should have to answer for it, in my opinion.

Hopefully the other children are all in good homes now.

@MsGazette - was wondering if the court site has updated yet for the next hearing date?

TIA!

 

[Niner]

@MsGazette - it's been a couple of weeks - and wondering if there might be a hearing coming up?

TIA!

edited to add - @borndem - it looks like MsGazette hasn't been on since late Feb. and wondering if you could possibly look this case up?

I have Kent County Case #K1-2019-0364A & K2-2019-0752A

TIA if you can!

 

[Niner]

@MsGazette - bumping up for maybe any new court hearing dates?

TIA!

Yes...sorry, sorry. I was “off the grid” for about a month. I checked into Zah-Nae’s case and there appears to be no change at all. Sadly. 4/6/21 is the next date.

Okay - it says Trial Calendar Call - but that is "not" the actually trial starting correct? Just a Calendar Call hearing? And going to assume no bail reduction....

TIA!
