In 2011 I had a child and I needed help with opiate addiction. Dhr took him at birth and gave us a bunch of hoop to just thru, however refused to pay for anybody them. Our worker was LaCorie Jones. When I found out I was pregnant again before the case closed she told me to go to alethia house and I could keep by babybdown there. A week later she had completely taken my first child. She then started in on the child that wasn't even born yet. She called alethia house a week before the birth and said "I never told you that " despite the witnesses to her telling me that. So I left, afraid he would be taken by another county while I was sent home.because I was almost done with the program. She made sure when my 2nd son was born that the foster parents she had picked got to see hold rock feed...everything with my aon first. Even told me THEY are the ones who need to know. They kept him in NICU until the day the foster liscence cleared. Then they kept him for 3 years...yes DHR KEPT MY SON IN FOSTER XARE FOR 3 YEARS AND ABSOLUTELY NOT A THING CHANGED FROM DAY ONE UNTIL HE WAS RETURNED OTHER THAN US HAVING TO HAVE PUR DOG KILLED TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. Do you hear me, we had to sacrifice an animal to get our son home. Lacorie jones was pulled from the case by the way...even the judge could see she was vindictive. Then years go by no issues until I laid my daughter... the first baby I got to bring home and nurse and cloth diaper and bond with...in a fisher Price rock n play and she became one of the last victims of that product before the recall 4 months later...but dhr came in removed my son signed a safety plan for him to go with the same foster parents from before DESPITE there being 8 family options all of which have pristine backgrounds and homes. LACORIE JONES GOT INVOLVED. They made us leave first then when my child walked out with the foster parents they swooped up in a van and they put him in. The foster mom jumped in as well and called us while the investigators screamed at her not to. They forced him into stranger foster care that night after interrogating him without any adult present and according to him they kept telling him I must have done something to hurt her despite him protesting...because he was there. It was the most traumatic scene and scenario I've ever experienced and left me a shell with ptsd and he was there with me the entire time so he was just as traumatized...and thats what they did to him. Then when we were in court the day after my daughter died they forced one of the investigators to get on the stand, asked the woman who she was about to commit perjury by claiming she told her she saw us high the night before (despite her being a mandated reporter and never saying that)...yeah theyvmade her leave the court room.before someone got on the stand to lie about her. She was livid and an investigation found that she had never said anything like that and dhr did perjure themselves just to take my child away from their own foster parents once they realized the foster parents would just blindly follow along with whatever they said...plus we had been at a family dinner the night before...there were 30 witnesses to how we were behaving and none of them thought we were impaired in any way. He was returned after 4 months of 1x 1hr per week supervised visits. The guardian ad lietm came to our home apologisongnand crying because he had hired a paralegal who was sabatoging our files. I finally had a daughter in 2019 and had 3 yrs and 10 months with her...no issues no complaints she is a happy precocious bubbly smart little girl and she had never been away from me until I put her into LITTLE MADISON ACADEMY. She made some comments that suggested we were not a Christian household because we are not, and have the absolute freedom and right not to be. Suddenly a call comes in from the school claiming my husband was drunk when he dropped my daughter off..mmbut see I was in the car...his 10 yr old son confirmed his dad was not drinking AS DID HIS BOSS WHO WORKED WITH HIM ALL DAY

They forced us to either take a drug screen or they'd immediately remove our kids...so we did. They claimed I failed for EVERYTHING. So I went and had the hair test done and it proved their own urine screen wrong. Turns out I only failed for my prescriptions and thc

ONLY I HAVENT SMOKED POT, I USED OVER THE COUNTER SOLD AT EVER STORE IN THE COUNTY MADE LEGAL BU THE FARM BILL DELTA 8 GUMMIES TO SLEEP. It caused me to fail for thc. The vox even said it will cause a positive drug screen. So my last child who hadn't experienced this trauma was taken

9 DAYS LATER. APPARENTLY IT WAS SAFE FOR MY KIDS FOR 9 DAYS BUT NOW WE CAN ONLY SEE THEM 1HR 1 DAY A WEEK SUPERVISED AT DHR BEHIND A 2 WAY MIRROR. MY OWN DAUGHTER ON HER 4TH BIRTHDAY THAT WE ONLY GOT TO SEE HER FOR A FEW HOURS FOR STARTED TELLING ME ME AND HER FATHER DIDNT MAKE HER AND SHE DIDNT COME FROM MY BELLY...JESUS MADE HER. HUH? THATS FUNNY. SEEMS LIKE THEY WERE TAKEN BECAUSE OF RELIGION AND A LEGAL PRODUCT NEVER USED IN FRONT OF OR AROUND OUR CHILDREN. IF THATS THE DHR LOGIC TAKE EVERY CHILD FROM ANYONE WHO SIPS ALCOHOL AROUND THEIR KIDS OR AFTER THEYVE PUT TO BED.

Their official reason is that we had thc in our systems. So to recount they took my first son and we pulled it together before the birth of our second where they tried everything to make us relapse (admitted to by one of the 4 caseworker we had)...in fact the secind worker who had a stroke actually said she had no idea why this case was still open. Dhr policy is to only keep foster cases open 12 to 18 months...they tried to make us relapse by lying and manipulating. They made us kill our dog "because our son is allergic to dogs" something they gotna doctor to say by telling him that he sneezes around dogs. We had a huge backyard...said we would put her outside and never let her in. THAT wasn't good enough...they told us him or the dog and forced us to put down an 11 yr old dog we had adopted before we got married. By the way that same little boy loves sleeping with his dog and is sitting in foster care right now begging to come home and begs us to bring her to every visit. He wasn't allergic AT ALL. Pur attorneys told us we have been TARGETED by dhr. Both well respected attorneys appointed by Judge Hundley. We were trying before this false allegation was thrown out there. Dhr has been shut down every time except for the 1st time after tricking me into not being at court and claiming they didn't know where i was to the judge. Had I been there to fight they wouldn't have gotten away with that. He was placed with family. After 3 years, shut down. After my daughter death and subsequent state sanctioned kidnapp of my son, they were shut down. Now they are back for round 4 and I need help. This has gotten ridiculous and I'm about to contact every national media outlet in the country to inform them about Madison County and the fact that they are UNDER INVESTIGATION for their what's the exact number

..8...9% rate of reunification. They are being incentivised to do this weather it's monetary or they just have a sadistic joy in removing children from their rightful parents and choosing children's families themselves. Reign in MADISON COUNTY DHR.

Even your own investigators on my daughters case told me exactly who had called in one allegation and they said there was something very strange about the other calls they'd recieved. Almost as if the person calling knew the exact things to say. Even your own foster parents think you are doing this to come in and check on my son because he was born on subutex and you always have him completely evaluated. My family isn't here to be your test subjects, we weren't here for you to try to set precident over subutex either but you did and lost. SO LEAVE US ALONE. The only trauma inflicted in my family has been done BY ALABAMA DHR.

Also lacorie jones said with witnesses that I should be careful because I make pretty white babies and people want to adopt pretty little white babies...then made sure she hand picked foster parents for him AND made sure they laid eyes on hin before his own mother could.

They even stood in my home and told me that they absolutely would not remove my children over thc. My daughter, my baby girl who has never been away from us not even one night BEGS me to take her home. Now she has started thinking I don't want her home. How in the world is that help and nor trauma. Happy children don't beg to come home. My son tackles me when he sees me

Those are not the reactions of abuses and neglected kids. Not that ANY DHR WORKER WOULD KNOW AS THEY HAVE ONCE SEEN US WITH OUR KIDS.

I will not go thru this again without bringing the entire system down.

Also jordin Bailey is the least qualified social worker or investigator I've ever seen. She doesn't even know hownto read a drug screen. OUT OF 10 WORKERS I have NEVER had one who had a voice-mail box or answered the phone. Not a single one had been there long enough that they could even work the case without running every single decision thru their supervisors because most of them, I was their first case. Multiple workers have quit following our cases simply because they couldn't do what they realized had been done to us. Also lacorie jones interfered in the case after my daughter died after being removed from one of our cases before for showing animosity towards us...and saying I make pretty white babies so I should be careful...but thebladt straw with the judge was he claiming I had mishandled my infant son AT DHR WHILE SHE WATCHED YET SHE HAD NO IDEA THE DATE, DIDNT HAVE THE RECORDING(ALL VISITS IN THAT ROOM WERE RECORDED), AND COULDNT EVEN FIND THE INCIDENT IN HER FILES...NOT TO MEANTION NEVER SAID OR STOPPED THIS "MISHANDLING" OF AN INFANT. Why is it that your caseworker lie with impunity on the stand and you do nothing, in fact the 2nd one to perjure herself on the stand was seen by everyone crying right before she took the stand while the dhr supervisor was telling her what to do. It was in the hallway at the courthouse. Again one of your witnesses to that is a DHR FOSTER PARENT.

Desired outcome: I think I made myself perfectly clear. Get your workers to stop targeting my family and hold your workers responsible for lying and perjury
