Please read and act upon this. This is my family... but more importantly this is a human life. Any choices that is made by the courts will decide the future of these children. Will their lives be on your hands?
Kurt Green and Dasha Asplin are being taken out of my mother and stepfathers care in 60 days to be placed with Craig Green who has a history of Domestic Violence and a Criminal record. According to Colorado Department of Social Services, Craig is a "changed man". This man also had placed against him a "LIFETIME protection order" to protect mother and children from his violent behavior.
My sister has been charged with "Suspected Conspiracy to Commit Felony Child Abuse" which she was charged with after Craig Green was interviewed by investigators as to her parenting skills. She cannot do anything to stop this until she is cleared of charges which will not be until May of 2008.
If Social Services will not step up to protect these children, then it is up to us...the People of these United States to do it for them.
Please I implore you, to contact the following peoples to ask them to look into this matter and take steps neccessary to stop this tragedy from happening. These children barely know, and are afraid of this man. We must take immediate action to prevent this.
For some reason a 911 call made by Kurts grampa Rick cannot be used in court, and all records of him seeking help from the county for Kurt have disappeared also. All efforts the family has made to help Kurt have conveniently disappeared however, Child Protection services feel it is on the childrens best interest to put them in a home of a man they are afraid of and whos girlfriends son has molested my neice. Not to mention the Permanant Protection order put in place by District Judge John t Bryan in 2005.
Social worker at Adams County Health and Human services, Kerry Pedrett, has conveniently gotten a "supposed" court order to make these changes without the mother or grandparents being aware. Guardian Adlitem, Todd Calvert cannot be reached for comment on this case.
This is what we are up against in Colorado... Government Officials refuse to take neglect and abuse of children seriously.
