Illinois governor Bruce Rauner (RINO) raised eyebrows and emboldened his political enemies last week when he said he is “trying to get to be” in charge of Illinois but has been blocked by Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan.
Rauner drew instant criticism for telling the truth. Chicagoland Democrats run the state legislature. More than 60% of state senators and almost 60% of state representatives sport the donkey brand. Madigan’s stepdaughter Lisa (D) is the state’s Attorney General. Rauner defended his record on things he could do that didn’t go thru the state legislature.
Here’s something Rauner damn well better control – he needs to stop his state’s loony and corrupt social workers from placing foster children in homes with sex offenders. And he should look at canning key officials of that corrupt agency.
We were contacted by a Chicagoland woman in 2014, who has been trying to gain custody of her grandson and adopt him. Her daughter and the natural father are both druggies, so she wanted to protect the little boy.
Instead, child protective services people in an Illinois county placed the boy with a relative of the sperm donor “in the best interests of the child.”
The woman asked us to look into the sperm donor and the foster couple, who state officials consider good enough to be foster parents.
We found the natural father has a string of convictions and lesser punishments for drug offenses, multiple DUIs, theft, car title violations, a concealed weapon incident, and criminal trespass in Illinois and Kentucky. He was also on the wrong end of a child support case. He is probably not father material in the sense of raising the little boy responsibly and setting him a good example.
The “haven” to where local social workers sent the little boy was the house in which the sperm donor’s uncle and uncle’s current honey live. The uncle/foster dude had financial problems, as evidenced by his conviction related to a bad check, and his eviction, as well as a divorce which showed his first ex-wife was the breadwinner. He also had assault and DUI related convictions, and matching ex-wives. The first one sued him for adultery after she was supporting him. The second sued him for cruelty, and had married him even after he beat her when she was his live-in girlfriend. The woman currently keeping his bed warm had an older son (now moved out), a paternity suit against this son’s natural father, who she later married as her first husband, a divorce, and a daughter (now moved out) who had a baby and a restraining order against a boyfriend before she was 20.
All these wonderful people, and the current (for now) wife’s younger son, who turned 18 in 2014, were living in the house the current wife got from her ex-husband when she divorced him. (It’s a rental; the first hubby moved out.) Related to the three divorces (and mentioned in the divorce files) were three restraining order petitions that had the truly bizarre info.
The current wife/foster gal filed a restraining order against her first husband, who had committed the politically incorrect crime of growing chubby. She claimed he became suspicious she was cheating on him, checked her cell phone for evidence of hookups, and called her a slut and a whore. In the divorce, she got the rented house and the fridge.
The uncle/foster dude, who fathered four daughters by his first two wives, was the target of two restraining order requests. Ex-Wife No. 1 filed on him when he refused to return their two daughters from a parental visitation. She had to have the police retrieve her little girls. Ex-Wife No. 2 also filed her restraining order due to a visitation problem. She said her older girl (who was 8) said the 16-year-old boy who was in her dad’s house – the younger son of his current wife – had molested her several times. Ex-Wife No. 2 sought to cut off his visitation rights because she didn’t want the pervert son (allegedly) of his current female raping her little girls.
When I found these cases in 2014, I immediately shot them to the woman’s lawyer. I also contacted the state police and the state inspector general. Putting a little boy in the home with a known or suspected child molester is corrupt or incompetent or both.
The local police had to refer Ex-Wife No. 2’s charge to the Illinois state police, because of “CONFLICT.” In other words, people on the force were friends or relatives of one of the parties or someone in that party’s family circle.
I located and talked with Ex-Wife No. 2. She told me a relative of the teenager who reportedly molested her daughter was an official with the county sheriff’s office. That was the apparent “CONFLICT.”
The second ex-wife’s request for a restraining order outed the foster couple as potentially unfit to have that privilege. It also implied local agents of the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) were ruling in this couple’s favor against the woman who sought our help perhaps out of personal friendships. And it outed some of these agents’ and local police’s apparent low standards of deciding who to be friendly with.
This revelation about an apparent sex offender should have been the little boy’s “get out of foster jail free card.” But the judges in that corrupt state did not spring him.
I contacted Governor Rauner’s people in 2015. They referred the little boy’s case to the Inspector General of the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS). This is the agency whose people place children into foster homes.
The woman inspector general, a political hack named Denise Kane, instead of owning up to her agency’s many failures in this case, tried to attack me. I stepped on her hard.
I then contacted Governor Rauner at his home.
How? I looked up property records in the counties around Chicago and found a fancy home that he and his current wife were paying taxes on.
I then wrote him a letter and addressed it to him and his current wife. This would screen out all the short-stopping aides.
Here’s an excerpt from that letter.
The case was referred back to DCFS. An official named Desiree [sic] Silva repeatedly refused to return my calls. So I finally called Denise Kane directly in early December 2015. She said she would look into the matter.
I called her three days later when I hadn’t heard from her. She said the charge was unsubstantiated. I asked who investigated it. She wouldn’t tell me at first, so I persisted. She finally said DCFS investigated.
She claimed the report was expunged, and mentioned someone complained to her agency directly about abuse happening to a child at the (foster dude and foster gal’s) residence in (Winnebago County).
I told her I reported a sexual abuse incident to the state police, but not to DCFS. (Why? I report to law enforcement. Child services agencies are jokes.) I said she was obviously referring to another charge against the foster couple. Since there were multiple charges against this couple, perhaps DCFS should have checked on them for suitability.
Ms. Kane claimed DCFS in Winnebago County did the investigation. Then she tried to hedge, because I understand it is illegal for local DCFS people to investigate when there is a conflict. (The conflict was the evident blood tie between the suspected child molester, the foster couple, the sheriff’s office, and/or the Winnebago County DCFS.) She said maybe a DCFS team from another county checked on the sex offense case.
The problem here is Ms. Kane didn’t seem to be telling the truth. The mother of the molested child said the only DCFS people who were involved in the case when she came to a hearing were from Winnebago County.
Like a crooked political operative, Denise Kane tried to turn it around on me. She said the girl was molested in 2012 but I didn’t report it till 2014. Why not? she demanded.
I told her the certified copies I got show the clerks pulled the case for me in July 2014, and I got the records some time later. This is when I first became aware of the evident ongoing molestation of the little girl in (the foster dude’s) house by his current wife’s much older teen son. The affidavit I filed had a notarization proving I let an officer of the court know promptly. Illinois state police call and e-mail records will show I contacted them in August and September 2014.
The truth is Ms. Kane’s own DCFS agents were aware of the charge, but did not act on it to lock up a child molester, nor to protect the little boy they entrusted to the couple who had a credibly accused child molester in their house.
I understand DCFS placed the little boy with (the foster dude and the foster gal) after the sex offense incidents!
The sex offense charges, and (the foster dude’s) evident child stealing, money problems, deadbeat acts, and petty thievery, would have shown up in a competently done background check, which DCFS apparently failed to do. Or worse, DCFS agents were OK with people like (the foster dude and his woman), herself a possible enabler of a child molester, having control of children.
I asked Ms. Kane how often she recommended discipline for DCFS personnel. She tried to hang up on me when I questioned her why it seemed so low.
Ms. Kane essentially admitted her agents broke the law as mandatory reporters and as investigators faced with a conflict. She prevaricated about how many reports of abuse against the couple there were, whether or not her agents destroyed or expunged the case files, and whether or not her people obeyed the law in investigating the charges of abuse. She also apparently lied about whether her agency even looked at the report I filed – she claimed her agents investigated an abuse complaint. I actually filed the sexual abuse complaint with the state police, not with DCFS. (Maybe she was telling the truth – and multiple sexual abuse charges should have been a red flag to her. But they weren’t, which proves she is useless.) She claimed she didn’t have the report(s) available, so she may very well have no way of knowing what she said was true or not. But it didn’t prevent her from opening her mouth and saying things that were ignorantly wrong or open lies.
I understand you had misgivings about retaining Denise Kane as DCFS IG. Your misgivings are totally founded.
Governor Rauner’s staffers let me know the state was on it and to let him know if there was any problems.
The woman’s little grandson remained in the custody of the foster couple.
So I contacted Governor Rauner again, in February 2016. Here’s the body of my letter:
“At your invitation, I am contacting you back because state agents mishandled their work in the (little boy’s) case.
Ms. Denise Kwateng of the Office of Executive Inspector General referred my complaints about the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services and their inspector general Denise Kane right back to Denise Kane, the IG of DCFS.
Ms. Kwateng’s highly irregular action is the agency equivalent of the police referring citizen tips about crimes to the criminal suspects. Maybe this approach is why so little government employee wrongdoing is punished in your state.
I reported this back to your staffers. The number assigned is 672763.
One, who identified herself as “Christie” or “Christine” but would give no last name, said she would look for my written followup. This was on 2/18/2016 or 2/19/2016. I called 2/26/2016 to see if your staffers had gotten my update.
A young man who identified himself as Jim Crowley acknowledged the receipt, and said it was not unusual because DCFS placed children in foster homes with sex offenders routinely.
I said this was why I was contacting Gov. Rauner. He as the governor of a state is like a president of a company in that he wants to see how the workers on the state payroll are doing their jobs in serving the public good.
Crowley conceded DCFS should not be placing young children in foster homes with sex offenders. He conceded maybe DCFS agents didn’t screen properly. But then he said something very troubling, and unfortunately, something he had to have learned from someone else in the government.
He said, “Well, people have the right to sue.”
This is true, I told him, and in the case I referred, the little boy’s grandmother has filed to adopt him and get him away from the petty thief, petty criminal, and child stealing foster father whose current wife’s 18 year old son is in the house and evidently molested a stepsister in that house several times.
But then I told him the IG process and similar outreach programs by the state are designed to correct problems the state government’s employees have caused. So is calling a wrongdoing employee’s chain of command.
A PERSON SHOULDN’T HAVE TO GO TO COURT TO GET A STATE AGENCY TO REVERSE THEIR OWN ILLEGAL ACTIONS!
The state agency’s top people should be able to right the wrong on their own. And if they don’t do so, then those who have oversight of the agency should do so. Lawsuits against the government should be rare. Instead they are too common because people like the DCFS and Ms. Kwateng don’t do their jobs.
And there would be more lawsuits against the government if people had money and stamina to fight them. The government can lie with impunity and delay with impunity and their agency lawyers and union lawyers can lie and delay with impunity in court and to the media. And they get paid by people’s taxes to work against the people.
Governor Rauner, I know you didn’t run for office to perpetuate this sort of cesspool behavior.
I am asking you to have Maggie Hickey sort this mess out and get (the little boy) taken out of a home where he could get molested and mistreated further. He is not even in school yet, but he is in therapy. What’s right with that?
Thank you for your consideration. More importantly, thanks in advance for aiding (the little boy) in escaping a place where he shouldn’t be. I’d like to see him not be yet another statistic, and I believe you would want that as well.”
There were quite a few news stories about incompetence or worse in the DCFS. Rauner brought in a new boss for the agency to check on things and maybe fix the agency. Rauner had his people contact me, and they essentially asked for patience while the new head of DCFS sorted things out.
But the wheels of justice turn slow. The little boy, now seven, remained in the custody of the foster dude and the foster gal. Meanwhile, the new boss in 2016, George Sheldon, ejected in mid-2017 after he was accused of the time-dishonored practice of giving lucrative no-bid contracts to friends. Denise Kane is still the IG of DCFS.
And Illinois state police never completed their alleged investigation of the teen son of the foster gal (foster dude’s third wife) for molesting the little girl he fathered by ex-wife No. 2. The ex-wife told me the state police never contacted her. This implies the Illinois state police did an incompetent or corrupt investigation. Or maybe the Illinois state police dicks take a very long time to investigate child molestation cases. After all, there are a lot of corrupt politicians to check on.
To aid the woman in her quest to get custody of her grandson, I re-checked the foster couple and the natural father for new problems. After all, the Illinois state police and the courts seem to move with the speed of a glacier in child molestation cases.
I went after all police and fire calls for the address of the foster couple in the summer of 2017. Here are some of the most bizarre of what I turned up.
(11/18/2011). A sheriff’s deputy arrested natural father of the little boy at the house of the foster dude and the foster gal. Sperm donor is relative of foster dude. They had been apparently harboring sperm donor from a warrant from the Ogle County (Illinois) Sheriff.
12-028735.1 (5/3/2012, 9:20 am). Report notes foster gal came to the sheriff’s office to complain about her son getting a threatening message on his cell phone. She said her teen son was accused of illegal sexual contact with the daughter of his father’s new woman. Foster gal said her teen son was not arrested for the reported sexual assault. (She has juice with the agency and the cops.) Foster gal accused her ex and his woman of spreading rumors about their son “to all the neighbors, friends, colleagues, people in the bars or “whoever will listen” about what (his son by the foster gal) was alleged to have done. Now (son) is getting threats of being beaten up.”
This means the foster gal admitted her son was investigated for molesting another little girl! And the son’s own father was calling him a sexual predator.
(5/10/2012 thru 5/30/2012). Sheriff’s deputy reported going to foster gal’s house. Report says foster gal said threats against her son were “related to an aggravated criminal sexual abuse investigation (12-018059) where (her son) was accused of sexually molesting his two little stepsisters” who are the daughters of her “new husband.” Girls are foster dude’s second ex-wife’s little girls. Foster gal said DCFS was investigating the case and Nancy Woody [true last name] was the DCFS “investigator;” she showed a letter from Ms. Woody and also said Illinois State Police were investigating her son. (This is possibly because she and her son apparently had a relative in a position of authority with the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office at the time.)
Foster gal claimed foster dude’s second ex-wife and her new husband were spreading rumors about what her teenage son did to the little girls. She also claimed the second ex-wife’s new husband and a “bar buddy” hired teenagers to harass her son and beat him up.
The teen who was supposedly threatening the son reported to the sheriff’s office, apologized, and said no one put him up to hassling the foster gal’s molesting son (allegedly). He promised not to harm the perv (allegedly).
The report said foster gal still demanded action against foster dude’s second ex-wife’s new husband. The new husband told deputies he and his wife (the second ex-wife of foster dude) thought it was not safe for either of her girls to go to foster dude’s and foster gal’s rented connubial residence because foster gal’s son apparently molested the older girl and the investigation (such as it was, considering local DCFS being involved) was ongoing.
The report noted foster dude’s second ex-wife and her new husband were not happy with DCFS’ alleged investigation into foster gal’s son’s reported molestation of the older daughter, but would wait to see if the county prosecutors would press charges against him.
This means the foster gal admitted her son was investigated for molesting yet another girl! He was checked into for reportedly molesting the little girl of his father’s girlfriend, and for reportedly molesting his stepfather’s older little girl.
The mother of the girls, who I have spoke with, has apparently refused home visitations to foster dude since the older little girl told her the son of the foster gal had been sexually molesting her in the foster couple’s house. If the girls’ mother was in the wrong, foster dude could easily go to court and compel her to provide both little girls for home visitations. In my opinion, the fact that he has not done so and/or he has not been able to compel enforcement self-evidently indicates sexual abuse took place.
(4/26/2015; 12:55 am). Barn fire killed maybe 15 to 20 cattle. Foster dude and foster gal rent their house from a farmer. It is on a farm of at least 70 acres. A cattle barn behind the house burned after midnight, resulting in the loss of a number of cattle, per the report. (The foster gal’s suspected molester son was the only teen still living there, per the report.)
Despite foster gal claiming she woke up, saw the barn fire, and started screaming for everyone to get up, no one in the house went out to let the cattle out from the barn or the barnyard so they could escape the flames. Instead, the first officer on the scene rescued cattle by opening a gate for them to escape.
There was another item of interest in the report. Foster gal right away threw blame toward someone for the fire. She said a blonde in a Chevy seemed to be watching an Animal Control raid at her house days earlier. This implies there was reason to believe foster gal and foster dude were doing or allowing something unsanitary or unsavory or dangerous to animals or something else that was illegal on the premise they rented. It also implies the government in Illinois pays as much or more attention to the welfare of animals as they do to foster children in questionable places.
One last item: The report noted there were three young children at the time in the house that “(foster couple) are caring for.” Were these also foster children?
(11/14/2015; 10:09 pm). Call to “get rid of a car that belonged to a person who used to live there” from the foster gal and the foster dude’s address. (See following.)
(11/15/2015; 5:34 pm). (See above.) Report notes deputy met complainant, a woman who was trying to recover a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix from the residence of her daughter’s ex boyfriend’s family, who were the foster gal and foster dude. (Foster gal’s suspected molester son, now of age, was still at the house in 2015.) Apparently someone immobilized the girl’s car, because her mother and the deputy were awaiting a wrecker. At least this girl was old enough to drive, unlike the two much younger reported molestation victims. The report didn’t note why the foster gal and foster dude or anyone else connected with the address tried to dispose of the car, or for what gain.
Why would a mom need a wrecker and a police escort to pick up her girl’s car from the foster couple’s place? After a call from the place asking how to dispose of a car? Some uncharitable souls would call the stunt “attempted grand theft auto” or “attempted criminal conversion.”
I also did some other follow-up work. Here’s what I found:
The natural father of the little boy, who is a relative of the foster dude, served time in prison in Kentucky on drug convictions.
The foster gal evidently has two bankruptcies in US Bankruptcy Court in Rockford, Illinois. The latest one was in 2014, after child protective services people put the little boy in her home. Foster parents are supposed to be financially stable.
The woman who called me brought what I found to her lawyer in Illinois.
Why? The little boy is still in that house, thanks to the court system and the child protective services stooges in Illinois. Because of the way DCFS screwed up the placement of this little boy, the case is now in federal court. The little boy’s grandmother is hoping to gain custody of him by this Christmas if the federal judge is competent and honest.
Since apparently the last honest man to hold public office in the corruptocracy known as Illinois was shot in Ford’s Theater, I’m not counting on the agency or judges or state officials reforming any time soon. In my lifetime four Illinois governors did terms in Springfield, then did terms in prisons. (Otto Kerner, Dan Walker, George Ryan, and Rod Blagojevich, if you’re keeping score at home.) That’s double the number of World Series victories by the Cubs and White Sox in the same time.
The public record on foster dude and foster gal implies Illinois child protective agents did no background checks on either of them. Or even worse, Illinois child protective agents checked on the behaviors of these two very flawed people and still decided they met the standards of acceptable foster parenthood participants in Illinois. Apparently the bar is low enough that it can be slithered over.
How bad have Illinois officials been at choosing foster parents?
Here’s a foster couple you heard about earlier this year.
According to the reporters of the Belleville, Illinois News-Democrat, Congressional shooter James Hodgkinson was an Illinois-certified foster father. His wife Suzanne was certified also. They reported the following:
One girl in the Hodgkinsons’ care, Wanda Stock, burned to death in a car, allegedly a suicide. Suzanne claimed the pretty brunette killed herself over a boyfriend. By burning herself alive? When two gas cans were found quite some distance from the car Wanda was burned in?
Police and the local coroner did not investigate Wanda’s death because they were told she was a suicide. Reportedly she left a note. But if you don’t check it for fingerprints or writing style, how do you determine it is authentic? And if you don’t check a girl’s corpse for a bullet hole or for hatchet or knife or machete cuts that nicked or severed bones (meaning they also cut blood vessels) or cut tendons or windpipe, or for carbon monoxide and other drugs and toxins in the blood, how do you know a fire killed her?
Another girl, Cathy Rainbolt, who lived with the Hodgkinsons under an arrangement called “subsidized guardianship,” ran away from their loving home after James repeatedly beat her and humiliated her, beat a friend of hers who was a girl, and shot at this other girl’s boyfriend.
Cathy Rainbolt, by the way, was the Hodgkinsons’ grandniece. Cathy’s own natural father, and her mom’s boyfriend had sexually abused her and/or her sisters before any of the girls turned 10.
Cathy hid in the neighbor’s home, but Hodgkinson entered the dwelling, grabbed her by the hair, hit her repeatedly, and threw her around. She and another girl who was visiting the neighbor girl ran out of the house and got into the other visiting girl’s car to escape.
Hodgkinson used a knife to cut Cathy’s seatbelt so he could drag her out of her girl friend’s car. He also beat the friend girl. Suzanne Hodgkinson joined her husband in the assault; she hit Cathy, pulled her hair, and tried to drag Cathy out of the car. The caring Suzanne then threatened to dump Cathy back into the foster care system, according to a police report the reporters referenced on the incident. Hodgkinson choked Cathy and tore her clothes, and struck the other girl when she came to Cathy’s aid. Hodgkinson then evidently shot at the other girl’s boyfriend, who came to the house to intervene, and the kid ran. Police found a spent shotgun shell after the boy reported the future Congressional shooter to the law.
Cathy had not fared well in foster care. Other foster parents had also abused her (thus the threat from the witch, errr, “subsidized guardian”). The next foster parents after the Hodgkinsons would continue to abuse her. She ran away from them when the man of the house reportedly started touching her inappropriately.
At year’s end the Hodgkinsons submitted expenses for Cathy. Per the article on the Hodgkinsons in the wake of his attempt to murder members of Congress: “In that report, they detailed the expenses incurred on her behalf, including legal fees, intermediate foster care, damage done to the front lawn and $300 to repair a hole kicked in her bedroom wall.” “ … in addition to the lost work time we incurred for counseling, court dates, incarcerations and medical expenses for the stress the rest of the family was put through while (the girl) manipulated her way through the system,” James and Suzanne Hodgkinson wrote.”
Excuse me for not being sad. Incarcerations are what should happen to those who beat and choke girls and shoot at a teen without justification!
Cathy’s girl friend’s mother took Cathy in and cared for her until she became emancipated. James Hodgkinson ran over the dog of this woman who sheltered Cathy.
Cathy as a young adult got into drugs. Her natural father, out of prison, chose to reconnect with his pretty curly-haired blonde daughter by raping her again. Caring Illinois officials gave this repeat rapist a measly five-year sentence.
Cathy died of a drug overdose in her early 20s. “Foster care is supposed to be foster parenting,” the woman who sheltered Cathy wrote in Cathy’s obituary. “Parenting is supporting the physical, emotional, social, financial and intellectual development of a child from infancy to adulthood. Foster care is not supposed to be belittling. The child is not supposed to be your free worker bee.”
Suzanne Hodgkinson, reached for comment after police had to put her hubby down for good, got police protection. She demanded the media leave her alone. She was playing the victim again. And Illinois taxpayers subsidized her protection, which was better than what the two girls got.
Governor Rauner can drive a purge and reform of the child protective services agency in his state, to protect children like the little boy whose case I am working, and to ban scumbags like the Hodgkinson couple from being foster parents. If Democrats balk, he can accuse them of clouting for child molesters. And then he can run the picture showing Illinois Democrat fundraiser (and homosexual serial rapist and serial killer) John Wayne Gacy with Rosalynn Carter when she was First Lady. And he can run pictures of Al Franken, John Conyers, Harvey Weinstein, Matt Lauer, and other Democrat bigwigs who have admitted to or have had to settle rape and/or molestation cases.
Rosalynn Carter and Democrat activist and serial rape murderer John Wayne Gacy
If Rauner has a sense of humor, he could mention crazed leftist entertainer Chelsea Handler chose to take her stage name from what the Secret Service must have called Bill Clinton. Bill had to settle a sexual harassment case Paula Jones brought against him because she correctly described an abnormality Clinton had – Bill’s erect member was visibly small and pointed left.
Rauner could also direct state attorney general Lisa Madigan (D) to file an amicus curiae brief Colorado’s appeal against the ACLU-allied lawyers pushing to outlaw sex offender databases and pay “raperations” to rapists and their greedy lawyers. This is a criminal racket Chicago native Eliot Ness ( R) would have machine-gunned into an agonizing death. For the record, the case is Millard, Knight, and Vega vs. Michael Rankin and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, and the judge who made the corrupt and/or idiotic ruling in favor of rapists and predator-friendly lawyers is Richard Matsch, US District Court, Colorado. Appeal is in the 10th District US Court of Appeals.
If she refuses, out Miss Mad-again as a servicer of sex offenders.
If Rauner wants to protect children, he could look at purging Illinois Department of Children and Family Services Inspector General Denise Kane. And maybe purge everyone she cleared. I read a few articles dating back more than a decade about scores of children who died from abuse in Illinois who were on the DCFS radar, and Ms. Kane made noncommittal statements to protect DCFS, or blamed the rise in children dying from abuse to the rise in deaths of children sleeping with parents — everything, seemingly except for the negligent and corrupt work her people were doing or failing to do.
It’s a big if. Rauner has to want to help children and has to want to punish evil and incompetent state employees. Is he up to the challenge? We’ll see.
What lessons apply from this case to you?
You can access the public record like the Illinois child protective services people apparently failed to do. I looked at criminal records, civil records, and calls for services records at the address of the foster couple. I looked at criminal records of the natural father. I called Kentucky authorities and got them to mail me proof of the offenses that led to his incarceration, I called bankruptcy court to verify filings. And I used public records and the Internet to locate the ex-wife who turned in her ex-husband the foster dude for allowing their little girl to be molested during visitations, allegedly. The calls for services records which the sheriff’s people provided me also showed charges were made concerning a second little girl who was reportedly a victim of foster gal’s son.
Homeland security begins when women and children are protected. In your life, and in the lives of your loved ones and those you see in harm’s way, you are your own first responder.

Info on the Hodgkinsons comes from a article in the 6/17/2017 Belleville, Illinois News Democrat.
Sources for my comments on Denise Kane (besides my phone conversation with her) comes from 11/20/2006 and 5/4/2008 Belleville, Illinois News Democrat articles, a 12/11/2013 AP article, and 7/9/2012 and 5/11/2017 Chicago Tribune articles.
As for Bill Clinton, the public record is full of articles about Paula Jones’ ordeal of withstanding many years of unrelenting character assassination from the Clintons and their flunkies. And there are articles about the attacks leveled at Paula by holier-than-thou Republicans who abandoned her to her legal bills, which evidently were about as large as the amount of money she won.
Paula Jones essentially won the lawsuit she filed against Clinton when he agreed to pay the $850,000 to settle it. The public record shows Clinton’s former law student and Bush 41 appointee judge Susan Webber Wright refused to recuse herself from the case. Ms. Wright threw Paula’s case out, but Ms. Jones appealed her ruling. The parties settled out of court in late 1998 while Paula’s appeal was pending.
Leftist hypocrites who said Bill Clinton’s horndog ways didn’t matter (and were OK with Hillary’s affairs with both sexes and with Janet Reno’s lesbian affairs) assassinated Paula Jones’ character nonstop for years. During the case, a former boyfriend of Paula’s, like a heel, sold naughty photos of her to a skin mag to cash in on her notoriety and harm her. GOPers who adopted Paula’s cause for their own motives were fiscally conservative about helping her. As soon as the case was over, they dropped her like a tattered rag doll and ran off like greedy children to a fancier birthday party.
Paula’s lawyers grabbed the money and evidently left her darn near broke. Then she lost her first husband to a divorce over the toll the case and the daily attacks took on their marriage. She apparently went into debt, but none of the cheapskates who benefited politically from her bold solitary stand against the Clinton machine would help her. Meanwhile, Clinton supporters gave all kinds of money to the lecher’s defense fund. Paula Jones, broke, single, and desperate, posed for a porn magazine to pay off her debts and put some money aside for the sons she loved. Then the holier-than-thou types joined the slimy Clinton apologists in bagging on her.
All I can say is, “Let he or she who is without sin cast the first stone.” Very few criticized the Clinton machine for trying to strip Paula Jones of her pride. Nobody criticized the lawyers for stripping Paula of her money. Posing for a skin rag is not noble, but it is far more objectionable to commit sexual assault, stalk women sexually, steal money from clients, steal money from the public, commit slander, and pervert justice by failing to recuse yourself from a case involving someone you know. I crossed paths with some of those who were her alleged supporters, and I can say they have had a history of promoting themselves.
Sources for the info on Paula Jones include a 11/14/1998 Washington Post article, a 6/1/2015 Daily Mail (UK) article by Paul Thompson, a 1/13/1999 article in The Guardian (another UK newspaper), a 1/10/2000 article in Publishers Weekly by Michael Coffey about Clinton apologist Jeffrey Toobin’s book on Bill Clinton (which covered Paula’s affidavit describing Clinton’s plumbing), and the transcript of a 1/13/2000 Larry King CNN show which featured Ms. Jones confronting and tearing up Toobin (whose book at least did contain Paula’s affidavit in which she said Clinton flashed his undersized and leftward pointing member at her and told her to kiss it).
