See here’s what I don’t understand. Baby was 3 weeks old when social workers started trying to reach them. If jaundice was a concern the alarm should have come far far earlier.

I wonder if it was due to domestic violence in the home that the social worker was involved?

I hope the family is right but I sure wish she’d verify they are okay if they are.

Police were called to the home on Dec 12 and the details thereof are in this article. IMO his actions there would be considered domestic violence. Police searching for La Crosse woman, child; father not cooperating, authorities say

I am hoping she is safe and hiding out. The father has quite a record and wasn't supposed to be at the property... A lot of things not adding up. The comments on the LE FB post are so conflicting. Scratching my head!

Yes, that's why I'm wondering if that's the real reason. Because the jaundice reason seems disingenuous at best. If the family KNOWS the baby doesn't need medical attention for jaundice and the cops are saying he does.... I can see why the family would immediately go on the offensive.

It would feel like you needed to defend Tracy immediately while being in an abusive relationship and trying to get out is much more understood. I also think that if they had the medical documentation, an Amber Alert could be issued. We've seen them for less when mom takes off with a newborn. So it's really not adding up here.

Update from La Crosse PD in the comments section from 3 weeks ago:

City of La Crosse Police Department

City of La Crosse Police Department Just an update...We have not spoken to Tracy directly and we have no information that the child has been seen by medical staff. We do have credible information that she is still in the La Crosse area and we do still have welfare concerns for the child.

From the link above:
A K-9 searching the Safari showed a positive indication for drugs, and a comprehensive search revealed the following:

  • About 25.5 grams of THC/marijuana individually wrapped in 14 baggies and another container in a black purse that Cadogan later admitted was hers.
  • 51 clonazepam pills in the purse.
  • 20 Alprasolam pills, also in the purse.
  • A scale and several small, unused Ziploc baggies.
  • A ledger on the back seat floorboard.
  • A small, red plastic straw with methamphetamine residue inside.
Cadogan was arrested on three counts, including possession of THC as a repeat offender; possession of an illegally obtained prescription drug, also as a repeater, and possession of drug paraphernalia as a repeater.

she seems to think something is funny
will she still be smiling when she loses custody and goes to prison?
the two adult males with her are just as disgusting for lying to the police officer about knowing where the baby was
Zilch morales. Should never be allowed too breed again! IMO
