Where's Revrew?

[DolphinFan1]

Has anyone heard from Revrew since his last post last week? I hope he is all right. I know he was having problems with someone calling DCF on him.

I miss the ZFL, hope everything is okay on his homefront though.

Well, until Revrew comes back with the ZFL, get your fix with FOFC Wrestling. www.geocities.com/stormtruppa :)

You spelled "stormtrooper" wrong.

Um, no I didn't. That was a joke, right?

[tucker342]

I know! I need my ZFL fix!

[bbor]

DCF??

[GrantDawg]

Who called what on who now?

[CamEdwards]

yeah, I missed this story as well.

[CamEdwards]

dola: DCF would seem to be Department of Children and Families. Social workers, in other words.

Sorry guys. Here is Revrew's post I'm talking about on the ZFL thread from 8/4.



Sorry for the delay, gentlemen. There's been a new development in revrew's life...

Some idiot has reported my family to the authorities with allegations of child abuse (from the nature of the accusations, we suspect it may have been a malicious report. The charges are nonsensical for an observant neighbor or acquaintance.) Since Thursday, we have been the subject of a gestapo investigation. (I don't know about other states, but Iowa is very aggressive and frequently unethical in their investigations. The DHS has a baaad reputation in this state.) As always, it's "guilty until proven innocent" in these cases. Thankfully, I have a lawyer on retention, and I'm familiar with the DHS's strategy of intimidating people into voluntarily and unwittingly relinquishing their fourth amendment rights. Armed with that knowledge, we were able to preserve some of our dignity and legal rights, but...

We've had to put our lives on hold to take our children to the hosptial to by weighed, strip searched, and blood tested (as expected, the doctor reported all were healthy and injury-free). We've been "taken in for questioning" and required to present evidence that we DO keep food in the house. This is all pretty standard stuff for an investigation, but it sure does wreak a lot of havoc, tension, and fear in the house.

At this point, it would seem the inquisition itself is over, but we will have to wait up to a month for the investigator to file her report with the social worker. At that point, we'll find out if there will be any more "recommended" action.

Hopefully, as this looks to be cooling off, the ZFL will be up and running again in a few days.

Sorry for the delay. And especially before such a crucial week!

[scooper]

That sucks. Prayers for Revrew.

[GrantDawg]

I've seen cases of severe abuse go completely uninvestigated by our state DCFS. Then you have the jack-booted gestapo in other states harrassing innocent people. Is there no middle ground?

[GrantDawg]

Or at least common sense?

Not going to happen, is it?

[Kodos]

Geesh. I hope whoever did this to him gets shot.

Rev...piss them all off and have another child:)

[John Galt]

Rev, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you and your family are well.

nothing, but who wants to see a 3 legged dog hopping around the house?

okay, THIS is the post of the day.

BTW, rev... I'm really sorry to hear about this. Oklahoma's DHS has a similar reputation, and I can't imagine having to go through what you're going through right now. Your kids are also in my prayers.. I hope they're holding up okay.

[korme]

Where is KWhit?

[korme]

I highly doubt any child abuser would be machine-like and pump out 7 kids. Revrew will pull through this. :)

[mckerney]

Where's Coffee? I haven't seen him in his baseball dynasty for quite a while. And Shorty seems to be missing too as his NCAA/Madden dynasty has lagged behind...
