A four year-old girl is ripped away from parents Child Protective Services calls "abusers," though neither had ever even been accused of neglecting or raising a hand against their daughter.

A four year-old boy is taken from a loving foster mother and handed over to a couple with a long record of abuse within the child protective services.

Neither child ever came back.

Logan Marr died of asphyxiation alone in a basement while wrapped in the 42 feet of duct tape which her foster mother had tied over her mouth and body. Anthony Bars was starved and beaten to death over a 10-month period.

Unfortunately, these stories are not uncommon. Child Protective Services has wide, police-state powers to act against American families, and confidentiality privileges to protect itself from accountability. A knock on the door from them is every parent's worst nightmare.
