This is heartbreaking as you said Shaun. How can this kind of thing continue to happen in this country? Those kids need to be back with their mom and dad NOW! Where is the outrage? We must not allow ourselves to become inured to absolutely horrific injustices like this.

I wonder if it’s for the safety of the children or the hatred of their parents that they took those kids. What a fallen world we live in.

It is devastating to know more families are being targeted by States, medical kidnapping, illegal seizure and child trafficking. States are banking off of children who are taken and the rules governing abuse and neglect are not being followed. Children taken from their loving parents, sentenced to the harsh reality that crime pays. Each time the state receives money from the Federal government, from CPS or the Department of Health and Human Services, profit is over the care and support of the child and family. Attorneys refuse to take this type of cases, citing out of their scope of work, but it is Family Law. In Baltimore, Maryland there is a case in which the University of Maryland Medical Center in 2018, medically kidnapped and illegally seized a child. Dr. Eric Lemmon and corrupt, Social Worker, Rachel Thierry falsified medical documents to abduct minor child by stating the parent abandoned the child, when the parent was right next to the child. Unknown to the mother, this report was made and the medical personnel agreed with the false statements. If such an act occurred, abandonment is a crime and the police, security and State police, who patrol the University of Maryland Campus would have been at the hospital. No report was made, except the allegations that were false. The mother has been trying to find help via advocates, she has written to Senator Cory McCray, Senator Ben Cardin, Senator Jill Carter, Mayor Brandon Scott and the current Governor, Wes Moore. This case has been ignored, but there are many politicians who are aware, due to writing to the Department of Justice. We cannot continue to allow the state department to profit from kids being taken based on false information and advocates we have to be collective in using all these cases to bring attention to our State representatives. Baltimore City Department of Social Services, Department of Health and Human Services, the Juvenile Justice Center (where Magistrate Dawn V Jones and Judge Cynthia Jones heard this case and never requested any evidence. How can you accuse a parent of a crime without evidence. Surveillance video from the hospital can support that there were not any actions that would warrant neglect or abuse. It is important Shaun King that realizing this is not an isolated incident and there are families all over grieving and asking for justice when it is denied based on your race, financial status, sex or speaking out against the corruption that has continued for years. I want people to know that children are being stolen from parents. Raped, beaten, traumatized and victimized and sometimes killed in stranger's home based on allegations that have no justification and if policies and procedures were followed those children would still be with their parents. The State of Maryland, City of Baltimore stole my son's and I am still fighting for justice. Attorneys who specialize in these types of cases are Shawn McMillian (Florida) and Allison Folmar (Detroit), they are not in any of these states we are speaking about. #JusticeForZion #JusticeForZen

This is more than an outrage. This is criminal and illegal. The “authorities” in this case should be arrested. There is a lot of crap going on. I myself have been stopped for Driving While Black. What country am I living in?
