Social workers who snatched four-day-old baby put her up for adoption over unproven abuse claim
Mum’s heartbreaking fight to get her daughter back.
A mum and dad have been told they will never see their young daughter again… after she was snatched away at only four days old.
Tiny Baby A was taken from her mum by social workers who claimed the tot, who we will call Emily, was at risk in the family home.
Not because of the mum’s failure to care for her – but because of a six-year-old unproven claim that her husband had injured his son from a previous marriage.
Yet, although interviewed by police, he never faced a criminal court over that allegation. And he has even been allowed unsupervised access to watch his boy grow up.
Now the High Court, in a devastating civil court ruling, has decided that a decision to forcibly adopt Emily – now aged four – away from her parents (who we are calling Tania and Stephen) must stand.
Revealing her agony for the first time, mum Tania said: “I had my beautiful baby girl snatched from me at just four days old. Only a mother could understand the horror of that.
“My only crime is that I love and trust my husband. I don’t believe he could ever harm a child, and the courts have been unable to prove it. I have already missed years of Emily’s childhood.”
Stephen, in his 40s, married Tania, in her mid-20s, in 2003. Almost a year after their wedding Tania gave birth to Emily in hospital and they were overjoyed to take her home two days later. But they were to enjoy just two days alone with their little girl before she was taken from them. Social workers claimed there was a danger her dad would hurt her because of the case six years earlier.
Stephen had been married before and has a 10-year-old son, Jamie. When he was eight weeks old, Jamie was taken to hospital with a suspected brain injury and was found to have suffered bleeding behind his eyes. The episode left him permanently disabled, and he now has cerebral palsy. A medical expert said that he had been shaken viciously.

Adoption law is like licensed child abuse
Full Article: http://www.stopinjusticenow.com/news/archive/2009/febuary/14/01.htm
Have we lost our sense of humanity? It’s a big question, and I’m afraid the answer seems to be a big YES.
Yes, we have lost our compassion. Yes, we have lost our sense of how fragile and sensitive human beings can be, and yes, we have lost the capacity to feel the sheer wonder of the miracle of birth, of having a child and bringing that child up to be a human being to be proud of.
That is life’s greatest privilege. You only have to look at this week’s pictures of a beaming Chris Evans and his new son Noah to witness that. That privilege was enjoyed by Mark and Nicky Webster. And it was, inhumanely, taken away.
Mark and Nicky have been dealt the most tragic of blows: they were told, by the Court of Appeal, that they’ll never see three of their children again, even though the judge accepted that they’d probably been wrongly accused of child abuse.
The children, now aged nine, seven and five, were taken into care in 2004 after doctors decided that six tiny fractures found on the middle child’s leg had been inflicted by the tot’s parents.

Rhys battered to death like Baby P
Full Artice: http://www.stopinjusticenow.com/news/archive/2009/febuary/11/01.htm
A BABY whose crack addict mum was known to social services for eight years was battered to death like Baby P, a court has heard.
Two-month-old Rhys Biggs had his chest crushed, ten ribs broken and his wrist and shoulder bones cracked.
Yet during his short life he had been under the care of TWO London social services teams, Newham and Camden.
His mum Claire Biggs, 27, had been known to them since 2001. She had a premature “at risk” daughter taken into care when she was 19 because she was on drugs and homeless.
At the time of Rhys’s death she had three boyfriends. One, live-in lover Paul Husband, 33, did nothing to stop the abuse.
Biggs and Husband were convicted yesterday of child cruelty as it could not be established what had caused Rhys’s death. It was another echo of the Baby P case.
He was tortured to death aged 17 months by his mum, her lover and their lodger even though he had been seen 60 times by health and social workers.
In Rhys’s case, health and social workers from Camden and Newham arranged to visit Biggs several times but she dodged the appointments.
The court heard how on April 10 last year, Husband rang the NHS Direct helpline to say Rhys had been screaming for
hours. Biggs admitted that on one occasion his cries had continued for eight hours.
