Cops Assult woman, Take Baby

All this without a warrant and after other cops found NO reason to do so. What happened was the parents insisted on a second opinion when Sutter Memorial Hospital in Sacramento, CA told them their five-month-old child needed heart surgery. They weren’t opposed to it, but did not want it to happen in that hospital so they took their child and left, going to a Kaiser-Permanente hospital. The previous hospital called the cops and told them all kinds of lies to get them to intervene. The cops found otherwise and left. When they got home, other cops, accompanied by a CPS worker, knocked the woman down and threatened her if she resisted, entering the home WITHOUT A WARRANT, and “snatched” the child and left them lying on the ground. After a court hearing, they are close to getting their child back at this time, but what can EVER justify their treatment at the hands of the cops and CPS in such a case? Last I heard, getting a second opinion was NOT illegal and there was NO REASON for the child to be taken away under ANY circumstances, Let alone assaulting the parents and forcing your way into their home without a warrant.

But when you get CPS involved, legality flies out the window. They have their own set of rules, legal or not. I think this family has grounds for a HUGE lawsuit and should file it forthwith. they SAY they're protected against such suits by the "Good Samaritan Law," but not when they EXCEED their authority. Update: After ONE court hearing, the parents are given back their child, but CPS has still told them of their intention to "keep an eye on them" with regular home visits, even though the problem was that THEY screwed up. These "visits" are MORE home imvasioms without a warrant (A suit can gain them an injunction against CPS interfering in their lives). will action be taken against these cops who assaulted them and pushed their way (without a warrant) into their home? Probably not. They'll cover it up with the usual legal mumbo-jumbo and gobbledegook until it loses interest and "goes away."  (The Blaze)
