Maybe going to jail.

DH has his interview with the police department tomorrow. Attorney told him that he didnt know what was going to happen but that we need to have a bail holder just in case.

I'm at a loss. We did nothing to this child. If DH goes to jail he will lose his job.


Please pray for us.

Oh, k, I know y'all are so scared.

Dear God, please, watch over this family, surround them with Your love and protection, guard them against the evil one who is working so hard in their lives. Please, dear Father, give them hope, give them peace, and most of all, give them the knowledge that You are in control and have plans to give them a hope and a future. Allow the truth to be made known to everyone. Father, you have the power to make things right. We thank you for all that you have done and all that you will do through this family. We ask you help in the name of your son, our savior. Amen

There are several threads about the insanity that has happened to KLRiggins. In a nutshell, one of their foster children, at the prompting of Mom, reported that DH had hit him in his face. The state removed the kids, sent them back to Mom, and they removed the soon to be adopted child as well. He is now back home, thank goodness.

Bio Mom had made repeated attempts to pin something on the foster family and finally one stuck even though the child is 5 yrs old. If I remember right, no marks by the way were found on him.

She has an attorney, but the state is adamant that the husband hit the child and they are trying to send him away.

This is complete and utter insanity. And they wonder why so few foster parents stay with it. If the state can not back up it's foster parents and instead decide to believe a drug addict, then what hope do we have?

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.
