Could this happen to you?



On Friday 21 March 2003 a Liverpool woman drove her 3 children and her 
Labrador dog to a Liverpool Park. The children were then 4, 2 and 10 
months.The mother was horrified to see a motor bike being driven towards the 
family; a 'hit-and-run' incident took place leaving the 4 year-old child 
with injuries, including a broken leg. Vehicles are prohibited from driving 
in the Park.



3 days later (24.3.2003), as the 4 year-old was preparing to leave Alder Hay 
Hospital Children's Ward with his mother, to be re-united with his 
grandmother and younger siblings at the family home, Liverpool CC Child 
Protection Team turned up in the Children's Ward with a Court Order to place 
the child with a male foster carer called Joe. Meanwhile, Liverpool Police 
(circa 12 officers) attended the family home and removed the 2 younger 
children from their Grandmother (and Aunt) and placed them with other foster 
carers. The 2 younger children were put up for adoption, against the express 
wishes of the mother, whilst the oldest child went to live with his father's 
parents ie his paternal grandparents with access to his mother barred and 
severe restrictions were imposed on access to his siblings ie twice a year. 
Should children be removed from a `safe' home?



3 days before the `hit-and-run' incident, the mother had filed an 
application in the Liverpool County Court for maintenance. Due to DNA left 
at the scene of the RTA, and kept for Liverpool Police by the mother, a 
teenager was convicted in relation to the RTA in the Park, but some 
questions remain unanswered? The child maintenance application has not 
progressed since the RTA on 21.3.2003.



Although the 2 younger children were put up for adoption, they have not been 
adopted and procedures have not been followed. As one would expect, the 
mother and her 3 children were highly traumatised by the events that started 
on 21.3.2003; the mother has dedicated her life since then to trying to 
re-unite her family under one roof and to preventing children from suffering 
avoidable trauma.



This case is not a unique and isolated case. The Patient Support Trust has 
expressed concerns about patterns seen in this case that have also appeared 
elsewhere in the UK eg when profit-at-any price and freemasonry combine? 
Moreover, many who have acted to either protect children or to protect the 
Public Purse, find themselves threatened with either being sectioned or 
asset-stripped.



Are you aware that your council tax money is being used to traumatise 
children? The basic cost of placing a child in a foster home is �400pw to 
the carer. What is the emotional and financial cost of needlessly breaking 
up a loving family?
