As a retired Law Officer, I can tell you there are probably more times they came out over a feud, than when and where they were really needed. This is a LONG post, but has many of the areas covered. Not good for the State though. I had them come to a scene where a 10 year old boy was chasing a truck his Mom was in, heading for a night out with a known doper. The driver stopped, and the kid hit the side of the truck, and fell under it. The driver took off real fast, and ran the kid over. A broken leg, and some ribs, but the kid survived. CPS (Child Protective Services) came out, and spent 5 hours doing an investigation. Left the kidS with the Grandparents ( over 70 and one with a stroke), while the Mom went on to party (she has a Right to some personal time they said). The Doper went to jail because of the dope found ON him, and the alcohol in his system. 3 weeks later, a call to the same place. She had slapped one of the kids, and when he fell off the steps, cracked hi skull, and died..... Another time, a Mom was in our jail on Federal drug charges. Her boyfriend came to visit, and brought HER son (not his). All visitors are checked for warrants etc. He had State felony drug warrants from another county, and a Fed warrant. I had to take him into custody right then, and try to figure out what to do with the kid. CPS comes again. They were called at 8:30 AM.and arrived at the jail at 10:45 AM. Only had to travel 30 miles to get there, but it was a Sunday and apparently no one was available to make an emergency investigation that morning. So..... After interviewing her sisters, her parents, and her Grandparents, they could not find anyone eligible to take custody of him. At 5:15 P.M., the caseworker left to take him to a foster home. I was dispatched to a call in the County to assist CPS. They wanted to investigate a Mom and Dad. They each had had trouble in the past. Both had taken care of it, and were woring and doing decent. CPS came in, and wanted to take the kids, because it was not clean enough for the kids. Wasn't surgical clean, but not bad. Again, BOTH parents worked, and kids were from 1-4 years old and cared for by one of their parents during the day. 3 hours later, it was decided to let the Grandparents have control of these babies, and a hearing set in County Court for a final determination. It was supposed to be 90 days, but "with some help" is was in 7 days. They got the kids back, and did real good with them. An old dope associate had turned them in. I saw many who were "By the book parents", never had any direct contact other than helping a family member or friend by watching their kids for a while, and none of their own. Maybe too much Dr. Oz or Phil for them...
