PERSONAL EXPERIENCE-many years ago I had CHILD PROTECTION SERVICES seize a JOINT BANK ACCOUNT based on a claim from a woman in North Carolina for her kid.

I did not know her, the kid was not mine. In the end it was an error by CHILD PROTECTION SERVICE and my BANK. My bank wanted to charge me LEGAL EXPENSES. Child protection services asked me for a copy of my SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER so they could straighten it out. I had the name of the damn fool who asked for that. I told her she should send me her's and I would send her mine-SHE HUNG UP. In the end, after getting this all corrected, I INSISTED ON AN APOLOGY LETTER FROM THE BANK PRESIDENT AND CHILD PROTECTION SERVICES signed by each person involved. I STILL HAVE THAT-IT IS A TROPHY.

We have allowed ZEALOTS in such well intentioned groups WITH FAR TOO MUCH UNCONTROLLED POWER, to become monsters.

In the mentioned event-ASSUMING THE GUY IS INNOCENT-he will not be able to sue the news source as they like CHILD PROTECTION SERVICES have become or have always been too powerful. The solution-unfortunately there is no easy one. The press is protected under freedom of the press-TO SUE THEM IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.
I am really sorry I said what I did about castration. However it was an extremely upsetting situation reported. I hope he is innocent.

There was a teen in our neighborhood who accused one of her teachers, her sisters husband and father in law of molestation. I doubted that all of them could be guilty and they were not. There is real incest sadly, so any of these things reported is possible. I am always skeptical of a very wealthy, high profile man being accused of something sexual because I think then it is often about the money. The principal of our elementary school killed himself after impregnating a 12 year old student.

It is so hard not to react emotionally to the reporting of such incidents. Some ARE true, sadly.
