My Story On February 25, 2025, all three of my children were removed from my care—without a completed investigation, without findings of abuse or neglect, and without due process. Each of my children has unique needs:
Davina was medically fragile after birth. I worked closely with specialists and therapists to help her grow strong and thrive. CJ has significant medical needs and developmental challenges.
Aundrianna has ADHD and ODD, and requires consistency, routine, and trauma-informed support   I did everything a committed mother should do. I tracked feedings, managed therapies, followed medical guidance, and made every decision in their best interest. I never endangered my children—I fought for them. But instead of receiving support, I was targeted by a system that misunderstood my role and misrepresented my advocacy. How the System Failed Us Due Process Violations CPS removed my children without offering services, violating RCW 13.34.062 and RCW 13.34.020, which require active efforts to preserve families.
Though a fact-finding hearing is my right under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the Department has delayed proceedings multiple times—prolonging separation with no judicial finding.
While Davina was in shelter care, the petitioner filed a no-contact order, violating RCW 13.34.030(10) by attempting to override CPS custody and sever contact without lawful authority.
I have been excluded from medical decisions, school information, and consistent visitation, despite my continued legal parental status—violating RCW 13.34.136(2)(b)(ii). Manipulation Through Family Court After I attempted to work with Davina’s father and he didn’t get his way, he filed a family law case in September 2024.
He then cut off communication, stating he would only engage “pending the outcome” of that case—isolating himself from his child, and later blaming me for the separation.
He previously told me he had no relationship with his mother, who now acts as Davina’s primary caregiver—blocking contact and interfering with reunification despite no legal designation as guardian. What Was Done Without Basis The petitioner filed a parenting plan before Leave to Proceed was granted, requesting to terminate all of my rights for one year without a trial, findings, or evidence.
He demanded court-ordered counseling through a provider personally connected to me, violating neutrality and ethical standards under WAC 246-16-200.
He and his family used the legal system not to protect Davina, but to exclude me through filings and power, not facts or truth. Federal Violations That Cannot Be Ignored 42 U.S.C. § 671(a)(15) (Adoption and Safe Families Act) requires states to make reasonable efforts to prevent removal and reunify families. CPS failed to do so.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Title II requires accommodations for trauma-affected parents and medically complex children. None were offered.
The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) mandates substantiated, credible evidence before removing a child. In my case, accusations were treated as convictions. What I Am Asking For Immediate reunification planning for Davina, CJ, and Aundrianna
A full investigation into Spokane County CPS, including delays, misrepresentations, and failure to uphold due process
Review and reversal of the no-contact order and parenting plan, which were filed prematurely and used to sidestep the dependency process
Court-ordered services must be provided by neutral, ethically vetted professionals, with no personal ties to involved parties
Statewide CPS reform to prevent the targeting of medically involved parents and ensure trauma-informed, family-centered practice
A formal, independent federal investigation into this and other cases—examining bias, misuse of authority, and patterns of rights violations
Federal oversight and reversal of the decisions that led to the unlawful removal of my children and the stripping of my parental rights from my daughter, all without judicial findings or trial
Professional misconduct review and disbarment proceedings against the attorney, for repeated violations of the Washington Rules of Professional Conduct, including: RPC 3.3 – Candor Toward the Tribunal: Misrepresenting facts to the court
RPC 4.4(a): Using legal procedures to burden, embarrass, or harass opposing parties
RPC 8.4(c): Engaging in deceit, misrepresentation, or dishonest practices
RPC 8.4(d): Conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice, including defamation of parents during ongoing dependency proceedings Why This Petition Matters:   This is not just my story. It’s the story of hundreds of families who: Were flagged for asking too many questions about their child’s health
Had their rights suspended before they were ever heard
Were presumed guilty because someone else had more power—not more truth
Were erased from their children’s lives by filings, not facts Let’s Be Clear: Medical advocacy is not abuse
Delayed hearings are a violation of civil rights
Accusations are not evidence
Every child deserves access to both safe, loving parents—not just the one with legal leverage   Please sign to support my children—and every family who’s been silenced, sidelined, or misrepresented in a system that was supposed to protect them. Let’s demand truth, accountability, and reform If this has happened to you, share your story. We are louder together.
