4 Years in Hell with Cook County Probate Courts!

The case of trying to save one black child has reached the final stage of a lengthy 4 years process: In less than a month, this four years custody battle with Joyce Washington will be finalized. On November 8th and 9th we are going to have a two-day trail to decide whether or not the biological mother, Joyce Washington, will be regaining custody of Zion.In my soul, I can’t see how Joyce will be able to get him back. However; I know when you take a chance in court, it can go either way. On one hand, it seems that the Courts would say that a child should go back to its biologic mother and it’s not important whether she can take care of the child or not. Some people would say that we have a lot of children with mothers who can’t take care of them! And most importantly to them, by taking the child from the birth mother leads to children not knowing their parents. And the government caters doings this heavily within the “black communities” which causes a breakdown in many families. Thus, the states take cares of the children of these mothers whose ability to render care to their offspring is insufficient. But this is the norm as it’s began a line of children who become adults supported by a states welfare systems Now, let’s look at how the State of Illinois Statues governs this issue: “We are a Child- First- State which clearly favors the best interest of the children when placing them back with their biological parents. These laws have a list of issues that must be resolved before a child can be placed with its biological parents: A parent must be financially and mentally capable of rendering suitable care to a child before gaining full custody of them once the state has been force to step in to care for these children. This is how Joyce became a ward of the state till her 21st birthday; and what also lead to us getting Zion place with us; in one cases you had a mother who felt that they could take care of their child as long as the state let her and in the other you had a mother who did not want a child and was force to have it. Personally, I had been looking forward to the day, which will bring closure to this overdue matter. I personal fill that Zion’s life will be destroyed if he is uprooted from our home and forced into a life that has no future. In one case you had a mother who did her best to make a way for her child and in the other you have mother who want a child to make a way for her self. We have too many children (Blacks) who are living on the street struggling their way through life. We are living in a time that is not like any other; times are hard and our children need more than the basics to make it in today’s times. And I can tell you that if Zion is forced into the hands of Joyce Washington, it will be giving him a free one way ticket into the “Department of Corrections”!Yes this is a Fact! Some people will say why am I making such a strong statement about Joyce and her inability to render proper care for Zion? Well, Joyce hasn't shown that she is capable of taking care of a child like a mother should be! She has constantly misled the State of Illinois Child Custody Unit to believe that she is fully capable of raising a child! Again it’s true that Joyce has kept a place to live for the past two years, but this was done at the expense of the American tax payers, who were paying 100% of her living expenses: rent, lights, phone, food; and all other living needs down to her personal hygiene.

Well, as of September 22, 2010 everything ceased because of her age; Joyce turned 21, and her free ride came to an end. Now, Joyce was forced to pay rent for the duration of this year and her life on a Subway salary that I have been told amounts to $500 a month. Joyce will be force to face some of the same hardships that most of the American people have dealt with recently. Joyce actions or non actions in life have made her a prime candidate for a local homeless shelter because of her inability to survive under the harsh circumstances that lie ahead in her life; now do we want Zion to live this life with her?

Joyce has lived for Joyce for the past 4 years and she has done this on her own. However; Zion is a 4 year old boy that lives for his family. And this street life is a life that he might be force to grow up in; if he is force from the only home he knows back into the world of Joyce.

Would school be a major issue for Zion under a Joyce? I have to say no it will not. Joyce will not take the time to get up and make sure that Zion makes it to school everyday she will not push Zion to do good in middle school so that High School will be just as easy and a stepping stone to Collage and then on to some type of 2nd degree so that he can grown up to be a strong Black man that brings something to this world; and not one that looks to take something from others.

The things that I talk about are not things that we all see everyday on the streets of Chicago; I see the little black boys who walk the streets with no hope; I look at all the little boys of color that fill the jails cells of Cook County and it is fact not fiction that we have more black boys going to Jail then Collage and I have fought all these years to make sure that this is not the life for any of my 3 boys including Zion;

I have been fighting for them and have giving up a lot for them; so that they can have life better then mine. As parents we should all work for a better life for our children; I want mines to be better then me; I want mines to get a better education then me and at this point they will need to get a PHD or JD to do better them me.

I have four children that love school and they understand the reason that they are going and this include Zion. He knows at the age of 4 something that Joyce does not know at 21; and that’s without school he can’t get the things in life that he loves. We have place into him this seed and we have been nurturing that seed all these 4 years. I’m not a fool; I know that if Joyce gets her hands on Zion it will be so easy for all that we have done for him to die under the darkness that life would bring to him living with Joyce.

A lot of us grew up in homes where our elder did not go to High school; let along collage and this could have been a burden on our out come; however it was a different time then and our elder wanted us to reach goals that they could only dream about. This is something that is missing from a lot of our young parents now days; we have a large number of “ I don’t care” parents now days; and they don’t care if there child goes to school or those who go have non involved parents who don’t care what they are doing while they are at school.

On November 8th Joyce will have to prove to the court that she can take care of Zion; she will have to prove to the court that her life has change since the 2008 court date when the Judge gave us legal guardianship of Zion. At that Point Joyce was living in a group home and the state of IL was taking care of her and in that 2 years time she move from the group home into a apt that was still being paid for by the state; so she moved from one group home to another in my view; and she needs to go out and show that she can make a life for her self on her before this court place Zion into her care.

This case is one that on it’s face seem like a hand downs; and I could read the tea leaves and say that we should see 2010 come to a end with Zion still at the only home that he knows; however reading tea leaves is something that I can’t take a chance in doing. I feel that just like in 2008 Zion has a strong GAL this time around who wants to see what is in the best interest of Zion in 2010 and I hope that some of you can make sure that she keeps her focus on Zion and not this faux thinking that it’s better to place a child back with a biologic parent who can’t and won't take care of them; then leave them in a home where they see the people in that home as there one and only family.

Inclosing if you are not able to make it out on November 8th and would like to send the GAL a letter about this case I can give you her name or address if you Email me at Riv1906@aol.com . If you have ever meet Zion and talk with this 4 year old about family he would tell you about his mother that pick him up from school and helps him with his homework and gives him love; he would talk about his big brothers that get him up for school and helps get him dress and he wants to get big like his big brothers and how he love to chase; jump and play with one. He will talk about his big sister Stacie that is going to Collage that drives him to school some days and how she takes him to Chucky Cheese when he does good in school and how she puts him our of her room when he goes thought her stuff but he still loves her. If you talk to Zion about Grandma he will talk to you about how he goes to MS to see his and how she takes him to Wal-Mart and buy him things and how he just love going to her house and playing out side and how much she loves him and this is my wife mother. And Grandfather to him is my dad; this is the person that comes over and gives his brother; sister and him money. And last he has his daddy; not any type of dad; but a great one that he calls “my dad” that give him what he wants and needs and had taught him how to fish and play baseball and takes him to the games. When Zion wants something and mom will not get it for him; he likes to say he is going to ask his dad and most of the time he gets his way with; but when he knows he has done bad he does not want anyone to tell his dad as this will make his dad sad

Well; as I stated in the start of this letter you cannot tell what will happen when you deal with the courts. I just found out today 10/18 that our November 8th court date has been cancel and we are going to have to wait till sometime in 2011 to bring this case to an end. My family life is once more place on hold and it seems to me that this life for my family will once more be place on hold. And if I’m told once more that Joyce is Zion mother and that gives her a right to bring hell to her life; I will just lose it! If this right of being a mother is so important then how was the state able to take Joyce from her mother; how is it that DCFS can take children from their homes with just a hint of abuse; and when Joyce abuse Zion we are told then she has no rights.

"I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired."

I'm so dam sick and tired; of being Sick and Tried! I have been doing and giving my all and it seems to me that unless I bring an end to this case my family is going to just loose our mind.
I cannot understand what is going on with this case; I do know that I keep telling our lawyer to do one thing and that is bring a end to this case; and these people just cannot get over whatever love they have for this poor excuse for a so called mother. This case is going to come to end by one way or another,
I have ask for help; I have asked people to just give the Judge or GAL a call and ask them what is going on, and to date not one person has called. So I will have to take things into my own hands and seek out others who have a love and care for young black children just as much as I do.

I have been told some things over and over; and one is that the GAL can bring this case to a end; and I have been told over and over to just give Zion to Joyce and let her do what she is going to do and then get him back from DCFS. I have said it in so many ways to that 2nd part that we can't and we would not do this. When we became Zion guardian we did this with all our heart.
Ok so what is a guardian and what is their job in this case? I have been asking this so many times and this is what I have been able to come up with under the laws in IL?

The Illinois Probate act defines a "Guardian" as follows: "'Guardian' includes a representative of a minor and a representative of a person under legal disability." 755 ILCS 5/1-2.08. The Illinois Probate system governs guardianships in the State of Illinois. A Guardianship has two separate and distinct forms in Illinois. The Probate Act provides for Guardians for Disabled Adults and Guardians for Minors. In addition, regardless of the ward's status as a minor or a disabled person, a guardian may act in representative capacity over "the person", the "estate of the person" or both.

We have been asked by the Judge and GAL to drive Zion to see Joyce; we have been ask to make our self a slave to Joyce and do whatever we can to make sure that Joyce is able to see Zion as one day she may gets him back.
Now I don't understand how come we were ask this; I can find anywhere does it say that as a Guardian to Zion we also have to take care of Joyce needs. We have to spend our time and money to give Joyce visit with Zion ever weekend. We have been told that it our Job to get Joyce ready to get Zion back and we have been threaten that if we don't do this, then the Judge in this case is going to take Zion and turn him over to DCFS.
I have to ask who would want to be a guarding under these rules. I have to ask what make this case so different from the thousand of guardianship cases in Cook County Probate court. My family dealt with one year of going back and fourth to court in 2008 before we had a trail on what was the best interest for Zion. And after the court found that it was in the best for Zion to stay with us; we found this madness starting all over with once more 2 months after that trail, and this time it has been 2 years.
The Judge in this case should have heard this case some time ago after the 2nd social worker report about this issue. However, it seems to me that my family is being force to go broke trying to save this child life this time around.
Next I have been asking and I want to know what the job of the GAL is? Now the GAL that we had the first time who had to deal with this case took one year and to do a full report on this issue. Now this time around we have had 4 GAL and not one of them have taking the time to do much of anything but talk about how much of a pain that I am. I have had these GAL talk about me like I was the lowest of the lowest.
I use to ask why were these people so up set; were they that mad that I was trying to save a young black child from growing up and knocking someone up side the head later in life; were they that mad that I was trying to make sure that we do not have another little black boy growing up to spend more time in Jail then in school. I have to ask what about me did these people dislike so much that they would let a 2 year old child spend the weekend with someone that was not feeding him; using drugs with him; and just leaving him anywhere that she could drop him off at.
Now; the GAL in the case now has not made one trip out to our house to see how Zion has become a part of our family that loves him and he loves us. She has not made a trip out to see where he spends these weekends at in the worst part of Harvey IL. She has said that at this time she does not have to go out and make a home visit because after all the mother case worker and DCFS put her in the place and they would not put her in a bad place. I wanted to ask her what world she lives in; they are not going to pay for her to live Home wood or Hyde Park. DCFS does not care where she lives; they would put her in a cave if that all they had; so I guess the GAL feels that this would be ok for Zion to live also.
This is what I can find out about what a GAL is said to be and what their job in this case and has the GAL in this case the 2nd time around done what is asked of them.
Guardians ad Litem
Most counties in Illinois require the appointment of a guardian ad litem, a private attorney or trained professional charged with independently advising the court concerning the apparent need for guardianship. Although the process described in the Illinois Probate Act anticipates the appointment of guardians ad litem in all cases, many probate courts will waive this requirement for cause.
It is the duty of the guardian ad litem to report to the court concerning the respondent's best interests. Under the law, if the guardian ad litem is not a licensed attorney, he shall be qualified, by training or experience, to work with or advocate for the developmentally disabled, mentally ill, physically disabled, the elderly, or persons disabled because of mental deterioration, depending on the type of disability that is alleged in the petition. The court may allow the guardian ad litem reasonable compensation.
The guardian ad litem must meet with the respondent and tell him about the pending guardianship proceedings, and try to determine the respondent's position with respect to being adjudicated disabled, the proposed guardian, any changes in residential placement, changes in care that may result from the guardianship, and whatever else the court may deem appropriate. The guardian ad litem files a written report and appears and testifies concerning the appropriateness of guardianship. It is good practice for the petitioner of the petitioner's attorney to discuss the guardianship case with the guardian ad litem prior to the court hearing.
Now the GAL in this case should have done a report by now; the social service report was done over 2 years ago and we still don't have a report for the GAL. I have said it over and over if the GAL feels that Joyce is ready to be a mom to Zion then she needs to do her report and put her name on it and stand behind it.
And until she is force to do this; she is going to keep putting this case and this child well begging on the back burner. Her job it to do what is best for Zion and she does not do this. She is not forcing Joyce to give Zion his Med; she does not even know if Joyce has cloths for Zion; she does not know if Joyce has food for Zion; to tell you the truth she does not even know where Joyce is living now or who lives with her.
When Joyce was arrested for driving a stolen car; this is the same car that the GAL said that she was giving proof that Joyce own and she was not worry about the car and we found out 2 week later that the car was stolen and the GAL was not worry about this also. That why she did nothing when Joyce was caught in the car and gave Joyce 3 day over night after this, Fri to Sun 3 weekends in a row and then tells us that we can have the 4th weekend to do what we want. I ask one more time who is she the GAL for Zion or Joyce?
I have to beg on my hands and knees for someone to just take the time to place one call to the Judge or GAL and ask them why is this case taking so long and why my family is being made the fools out of.
My family has tried to do our best to give one child a chance that he was not going to get on the road that Joyce had him on. We spent one year to get guardianship in this case and I cannot see how come it is taking over 2 year for these people to see that nothing has change in Joyce life but the date. My family has use our last to fight this case in the court and I have never ask one person for one dime to help with this case; all that I have beg for is one phone call.
If you want know anything about this case just look into my blog or give me a call and I will tell you about this case; it not one person that knows this case better then me; I have over 5k sheets of paper that deals with this case and I know these facts by hard and if I cant save this child life it can never be said that I did not give my all in trying to do so.Director of DCFS Mr. McEwen 312-814-1445 or 312-814-4111 Fax# 312 814-1888; Governor Pat Quinn 312-814-2121; Judge Kathleen M McGury 312- 603-6499; Aunt Martha's (708) 747-7100 (this is who started all this) . The next court date is on 08/06/10 at the Daley Center Rm. 1806 at 11:30 am Case Number: 2007P005201 (lets bring in the light. If you would like to know more about this please call (708-819-0619), email (riv1906@hotmail.com) or look at my blog (http://mahdee-2yearinhellwithdcfs.blogspot.com/). Does one truly have to wonder or question why we have so many young black children killing each other in the streets of ....Chicago....? It is unfortunate that Children are going from DCFS to DOC and then ending DOA.

56

56 day; that what it took for our lives to change forever and I can say with all that I am, I hold blame for this at the feet of only one; and that Aunt Martha’s Inc.
Let me take you back to the day that we had a choice; Joyce came to us and wanted us to take in the child (Zion) that she did not want before he was a seed growing in her. As you see like a lot of young women who don’t know much and understand even less, Joyce wanted to have the sex part, she just did not want to take care of what comes out of having unprotected sex.
Joyce mother would not help her to get rid of the baby (Zion). Joyce found her self looking for help from the people in the state of IL and this would lead to the state tax payer taking care of Joyce from that point on and it seem like the rest of her life.
On April the 13th 2007 Zion was drop off with us after we had been taking care of him on and off for about 2 months and with 2 calls of child abuse placed on Joyce before Zion was 5 months it was a know fact that once the 3rd called came in Zion was going to be place into DCFS care and he would forever be a ward of the state of IL.
Now; when we took in Zion we had the choice to adopt him at that point; however it was something that I just did not know if I wanted to get into, my wife did I did not. As you see I had did the baby thing 3 x and my three children were of school age and I just did not know if I had it in me to do the baby and diaper thing all over and I did not know how this would effect my other children life. So we settle on just doing a guardianship at that point; this was on the biggest mistake that we made. We should have just did the adoptions at that point and been done with Joyce and Aunt Martha’s; because the both of them have came back to make my family life a living hell.
So on July 27th 2007 we had gone to probate court to make the guardianship of Zion legal since we could not add him to our insurance with the paper work that we had been getting from Aunt Martha’s to that point and once more we had the choice to do the adoption however we just did not have the money that it was going to take at that time and we just felt like it was no need to rush this; after all Joyce did not want Zion and we could always do the adoptions later.
Now some have asked us how come we just don’t give Zion back to Joyce and let her do what she is going to do any way and after the state takes Zion then we seek to get him back from DCFS and adoption him then. Well that would be good if Zion was a toy or something that could not get hurt; however he has a life that we can't take the chance on; unlike the people in the guardianship court we don’t want to give Joyce the chance to fail with Zion.
Well; after one year in a hard court battle we were giving legal guardianship of Zion and each and ever profession in that case felt that if Zion had gone back to Joyce he was going to be hurt and place into DCFS and they all felt that Joyce did not want Zion; however she just wanted the benefits that came with having Zion.
So on June 24th 2008 we had a trail and the decision was that Zion should be placed (stay) with us and the Judge told Joyce that after she was out of DCFS and had got her life on track, then she could seek to get Zion back if she wanted to then and only then.
Now; after DCFS made a monthly vista to the group home that Joyce lived in August 2008 and the found out that Joyce was still living in that home and she did not have a child that’s when my family got to see the pain that Aunt Martha's could bring on my family life.
Some one from Aunt Martha’s Inc. took Joyce to probate court after that visit from the state to help Joyce fill out the paper work to discharge us as Zion legal guardian. They also use state funds to get Joyce a private law firm to help her in this case and 3 other cases 2 civil and one crime. Joyce did not have a GAL; however a private down town Chicago law firm that has been working under retainer (paid by funds from DCFS) by Aunt Martha’s for the past 2 years now.
My family was told that we were going to get $50 a month for Zion needs; this was going to come out of the $107 the state give Joyce for Zion. We were also going to have Child Care paid by Aunt Martha’s for Zion. Now after we sign this contract with Aunt Martha’s my family has only gotten one payment of $50 from them and we have never had any money paid for day care.
My family has never ask anything from Joyce or Aunt Martha’s but to leave us along all this time; however they both have done nothing but make my family life a living hell for the past 3 years and It seem like this madness is only going to come to a end this year; because on September 24th 2010 Joyce will be 21 and at that point she would not be any use to Aunt Martha’s; so they will most likely leave my family be at that point.
My family has spent over 30k dealing with this case and other issue from the action of Aunt Martha’s and Joyce and we feel that the only way we can see any good come from all this pain that these two has done to my family is to seek some type of civil case.
I know that law is on my side and I have all the proof to back up my case; I just need a good lawyer who will take this case and help me bring something good out of something bad.
I have taking them to court before and I was offer a payoff on one of the cases by Aunt Martha’s however I tuned it down and when my case was set for trial I had the Aunt Martha’s lawyers pull a fast one on me, and I also was going thought a lot in my life and was not on me A game one day and I just let the Judge closes that case after a year of fighting motion by Aunt Martha’s lawyer tying to get the case toss out.
So I know that I can win this case, I just need the right legal mind to take the case and review the files and help with the motions.

Child Support

I have to say that when most think of child support the 1st thing that comes to mind is some man who is not paying for a child that most of the time he did not want in the 1st place. However, once the child comes into this world the State will hunt him down and put him under the jail if he does not pay child support!
Now let’s look at what happens when that man is a woman; now you are going to ask how a woman can have a child that she did not want; well that easy she lacks the $500 to get rid of him. Now once the child comes into this world the woman does everything that she can to get rid of the child after birth; however once she notice that this child is a pay day for her, then the light bulb goes off, let me milk this child for all that I can.
Now; this is what happen in this case; the mother gets $200 in link from the State of IL; $140 in cash; free rent and electric bills paid for her and her boy friend; free legal service; she even gets a free ride on the bus and meter train all on the back of the tax payer in the State of IL. And the kicker in all this; she gets to keep her pay from her Job and get her hair and nails done and use her money to go out and eat, drink and get high.
Now after all this the State of IL feels that this woman should not pay child support; or they don’t want to go after her like they would a man. We have been trying to get someone from the DHS to go forward with the child support case on the mother and force her to tell who father this child. I have been to the Govern Quinn and DHS and I cannot even get a call back; after all what does Govern care about how the Tax payer in the state is being milk by a system that is bleeding the people dry. What does Governor Quinn say; the people in the state need to pay more and give more to; and I have asked why? And I was told that the taxpayer in the State should give more so that Joyce and women like her can gets a little more.
We have been told that the mother should not and cannot pay any type of support to take care of the child but she should get all the benefits that a person would get who take care of their child without the finical responsibly of being a parent. This job is left up to my wife and me and when we seek to get some type of help we have ran into so much red tape it will take about 20 years just to get this issue to court.
Now; I just want to the people in the state of IL to know just how our tax money is being spent and I have taking this to the Governor office and the powers that be and all that I have been told is; hey what is the problem she is just doing what a lot of other women are. I feel that just like a man has to pay this so called mother should have to pay. Why does DHS need my family to get the father SS number; when we can't ever get him name. Now I say that make the money pay; she wants to be a mom then make her pay likes a mom.
Please call the govern and ask him why should the tax payer of IL pay more to take care of a 20 year old Joyce Washington and her 18 year old boy friend.

Well in Cook County Probate Court not much!

What is the life of a Black child worth?
Well in Cook County Probate Court not much!

My 3rd cousin (Joyce Washington) http://www.myspace.com/miazion4lyfe had a child that she did not want at the age of 16. She wanted to have the child aborted; however she did not have the money. So, she ran away form home to go in to DCFS in hopes that they would terminate the child for her. They did not and so Z was born on 8/20/06.
During Feb of 2007, my wife and I took Z in so that Joyce would not kill him or leave him alone anymore. There had been 2 DCFS calls of child endangerment on Joyce.
In July 2007, Joyce told my wife and me that we could have ....Z..... She did not want him nor did she want him to live in DCFS. So, my wife and I drafted the paperwork for legal guardianship with Joyce signing her rights away. During the process, Joyce changed her mind because she was told that once she gave up her rights Aunt Martha’s Inc. was going to place her into a shelter and she would not get her $107 a month for Z any more.
On 6/24/08, after one year in court, my wife was appointed the legal guardian of Z. Each and every person interviewed agreed that the best place for Z to stay was in our home with a family in which he had integrated, and where he had a mother, father, brothers and sister. And this is where Z has been living since Feb of 2007.
On 8/14/08 Joyce called about Z's 2nd birthday party. She was upset that we were not having his party at Chuck E. Cheese's. Joyce got mad and was able to get a legal team to help her file a motion to get Zion back with that help of Aunt Martha and on 8/22/08; just 2 months after the courts had just given us guardianship.
Fact about this case so far; Joyce has use drugs with Z; Joyce has not been able to feed or medicate Z; Joyce has ties to a well know gang and has taking Z with other gang members for fights; Joyce has been living in a apt with her live in boy friend (who is 18) for the last two years and DCFS is paying all her bills; Joyce has been physic and verbal abusive to my wife and I during this time and she has been teaching Z how to be a thug also; and last Joyce was arrested for being in a stolen Vehicle in May of 2010. Now after all this the courts and GAL for Z still feels that Joyce is a good mother and they have keep giving Joyce over night with Z and they are thinking about giving Z back to her so that the tax payer in IL can take care of Joyce after she is age out of DCFS in August of 2010.
After all that has been done and said over the last 3 ½ years by Joyce Washington how can the probate court does this; well they feel that it in the best interested of Z that he be remove from the only home that he knows and placed with a unstable; member of the GD's; violent; soon to be homeless unstable person just so another DCFS ward can keep getting a check once she is age out of DCFS. Now this is total against the state law Chapter 750, Illinois Compiled Statutes, 5/602 of best interests of the child. But for the Courts it helps to make sure that Z is place into DCFS and they can keep this broken system that we have going. Z biggest problem is that he is a little black boy; if he was any other type of race then and only them others might care about his life. Why is it what we want to care about little black boys once them become young black males going to Jail and then we want to spend the time and money to wonder how did this happen; well if we stop this cycle before it gets to late then we can make a difference.

In closing, I was at my dentist office about 2 years ago and he was reading what has been going on and he said to me “what do you want me to do?” Well, this is just something that I never thought about what would I like people to do; besides knowing how their tax money is being spent. Well I want each and every person that cares about this to fax a copy of this to others and let them know; and I would like everyone to call or write the Judge; GAL; DCFS and Gov Quinn and ask WHY! We need to know why is a 20 year old ward of the state, is still a ward of the state. And how come we have to see our taxes go up so that we can pay for this woman and her live in boyfriend bills! Director of DCFS Mr. McEwen 312-814-1445 or 312-814-4111 Fax# 312 814-1888; Governor Pat Quinn 312-814-2121; Judge Kathleen M McGury 312- 603-6499; Aunt Martha's (708) 747-7100 (this is who started all this) . The next court date is on 08/06/10 at the Daley Center Rm. 1806 at 11:30 am Case Number: 2007P005201 (lets bring in the light. If you would like to know more about this please call (708-819-0619), email (riv1906@hotmail.com) or look at my blog (http://mahdee-2yearinhellwithdcfs.blogspot.com/). Does one truly have to wonder or question why we have so many young black children killing each other in the streets of ....Chicago....? It is unfortunate that Children are going from DCFS to DOC and then ending DOA.

Bad Cop 2

To Mayor of Phoenix IL: Terry R. Wells

Good day Mayor Wells, I have to say that I have tried to reach out to your office two times so far; and for whatever reason your office has not felt the need to respond back to me about these issues. I would have thought that by now I would have got a card or something by now. However, everyday I just get a reminder on how one Police officer in your town destroy all 3 branches of government without a care to how this would affect others.
Mr. Mayor Wells, today I receive a phone call from Mr. and Ms. Hoover (the young man who had his car stolen family) and they wanted to let me know that they have been getting tickets in the mail from the city of Chicago for their son Shawn; and all these tickets were during a time that Shawn was not able to be driving his car. It turns out that during Joyce Washington Illegal joy ride in Mr. Hoover car she was racking up tickets for red light. Now; as we both know the City of Chicago does not care who was driving your car when these tickets were issue; they want the owner of the car to be held reasonable for the tickets.
Now once your polices offices found Joyce driving Mr. Hoover car and did not charge her with anything they took Mr. Hoover rights to contest these tickets by the fact that A person had stole his car and he never gave her the permissions to drive it
Now, let me say that I told the Hoover that they should send these tickets to your office and request that the Phoenix Police Dept. pays these tickets since your office took care of Joyce Washington case for her; now this is would only be fair. I feel that the police dept should pay for these tickets and also turn over Mr. Hoover car to his parents since the police officer felt that Joyce had a right to be in the car. I was also wonder did Joyce Washington go to the Calumet City Police Dept and filed her fake report to cover up her crime; and I don’t know why on earth that office would suggest that Joyce Washington breaks the law and file a fake report anyway.
Now the Hoover family wants to know how they can get their son car back, since your police dept has a hold on the car; and personally who is liable for the tow anyway? The Polices are saying that Joyce might have taking the car or she might had not taking it and gave some unknown person money for the car; now I don’t know what are the real facts one way or another but I do know that Mr. Hoover should have his car release to his family and all tickets that Joyce Washington got on the car, should force Joyce be held for them and whatever your police officer did or did not do then that up to the villager of Phoenix to decide that.
Mr. Mayor I gave someone my word that I was going to give you some time to sit down with me and try to discuses what happen that Saturday night on March the 27th and I had wish that for me that night ever happen as it has made this one of the hardest things for me to push. As a black male I look for towns like Phoenix to give young black children a chance to grow up and run the government in their own home town and I feel that this issue is so important to me because the action your officers took that night has a negative impact on black communities. These actions are the reason why there is so much crime that has gone wild in black communities, we have so many polices officer who are taking the laws into their own hand and dealing out unfair justices. I want to know if Joyce was Jerry would he have been giving the chance that Joyce was. I wonder what does or can A 20 year old woman offer to a police officer that would force him to cover up a crime. Now I don’t say these things as hear say; however this was told to me face to face. The problem your officer made was to tell me to my face how he was going to cover up this crime by Joyce so that he can help her in the Guardianship case that she was dealing with. Now those people that he spoke about are my wife and I; so not only did he cheat Mr.; Hoover and the people of the state of IL and city of Phoenix; he has also cost my wife and I about 20 dollars that we are going to have to spend since Joyce told the court what your officer told her to say “that she was never arrested she was just pulled over for not having her paper work in the car”. So these actions have force us to have to come back to court and deal with this issue and this is costing my wife and I since we are the only ones that have to pay for our lawyers. So when you officer was telling me what he was going to do to help Joyce; he was also telling me how he was going to take money out of my family pocket.

Bad Cop!

To Mayor of Phoenix IL; Terry R. Wells

Good day Mayor Wells, I have to say that if I if ever get arrested I hope and pray that it is in your town of Phoenix IL; I will tell you why I came to feel this way.
Mr. Mayor Wells, let me tell you something that happened in your town on Saturday, March 27th 2010; and if I did not know it for a fact I would say no way could this happen. Two know gang members of the Gangster Disciples (look at the picture) Joyce and John were arrested in your town driving a stolen car and not only were they allowed to make phone calls from their cell phone all while they were in police custody, but they were let go 4 hr later and they got a ride home by one of your police officer.
Now, let me give you some facts that I know about this case. The woman that was driving the car said that she got a car from someone, and she does not know his last name. Now she does know this first name guy did not have permission to sell her the car or give it to her and she did know that he was not the owner of the car. She knew the owner of the car and she knew that he is currently in jail. Now, how this person whose last name that she does not know got the car was not an important fact to her; she just wanted a car and he had one.
The person who owns the car is in Jail and he never gave anyone permission to sell his car. However, he did report the car stolen once he found out that his car was in the hands of someone that did not have permission to be driving it. Just because he is in Jail does not take his rights away from having his property protected under the laws in the State.
Now these Gang members told your officer that they paid someone $800 for a car that was not worth $200; and they knew for fact that the person that they gave the money to was not the rightful owner of the car. They also admitted that they kept the plates on the car because they could not take the title in and change it over because the owner did not sign it and they did not have any money to do this part of the law anyway. Oh by the way they did not even have the title on them. They informed your officers it was at their house and they had a bill of sales however they don't know what happen to the bill of sale. Your office put into their head that they were a victim of fraud and should go file a police report on the unnamed car salesman.
Now; they can't produce a bill of sales; or any paper work to prove that they paid anyone money or prove anything that what they are saying is true, however this was ok since they got caught in Phoenix, IL; they don't need these things just a cute smile.
Now for what I have been told this woman told someone else that some guy was going to sell the car to her for $200 and he told her that she had to take the plates off the car asp and forge a name on the title and switch the title over into her name; and after she gave him some money he would try to get someone to sign the title for her.
Now at some point the car owner found out that these people had his car and he reported it stolen. Under the law, the rightful owner of the car never gave anyone the right to sell the car; or drive the car; nor did he sign over any title for the car. Now this stolen car ended up in your town of Phoenix IL and there were two people in the car. Now the officers in your town ran the car and the car came back stolen out of Chicago. Your officers let the woman in the car keep her cell phone and make calls tying to get someone to ok her story and she was also trying to force people to lie for her.
She called the true owner of the car’s mother and father and wanted them to come to tell the police that she did not steal the car. And they told her and the police that they were not going to do that; and that their son did not give anyone the right to sell his car and that she should have never had that car. As I stated before just because he is in jail does not give anyone the right to take his car.
Now; let’s look at what state laws were broke. These gang members were found in a stolen car; and if your officers want to feel that they did not steal the car themselves; because they said that they did not; then they what should they have been charge with. Let's see; how about criminal trespassing of vehicles; or having stolen vehicles. They would have been charged with something in any other city in the state; however in Phoenix IL they were driven home. Now the only thing that was done right was that the car was towed away and impounded like it should have been.
Now from what I can get in your town your office felt that these nice sweet people were the victim. The woman was just so sweet, they felt sorry for her. Now your office knew that she was doing something wrong; however she was just so sweet that they just could not charge her with anything; after all she had a child that she was trying to get back; and this would hurt her chances of getting him back; and your offices had to do everything in their power to help her.
This is the same child that she took with some of her gang crew for a fight when he was 2 and this is the same child that she would use drugs with; and had 3 calls of child abuse to DCFS; but your officers felt she was just so cute and if only your officer would had finger printed them who knows what else these two might be wanted for.
Now, I personally don't know what is the real story behind how these two got this hot car and to tell you the truth no one will ever know for sure your officer cover that up. However what I do know is that your officers not only let them go home without charging them with anything or running their prints for warrants or even doing a police report on this matter. They just felt sorry for them and drove them home.
I have sometimes wondered how it is possible for things like this to ever happen. How do gang member walk the street committing crime? How do drugs dealer sell drugs on the block and the police know who and where they are? I guess they can do this because they are the victim just like these two were; or they might just run into police offices like yours in Phoenix IL who feel sorry for them. Now these two broke some type of law but hey they are just so cute or something happen that they were never charge and now the real victim has to pay.
Your officer blame everyone for what happen but the two main people this man and woman. They knew that they were driving a car that they never had permissions from the owner to drive. They knew that the person who owns the car never gave them permission to buy the car from anyone. Its like if know someone has taking your stuff out of your house and I give them cash for it. I get caught and say; I'm sorry it not my fault; the person who sold it should not had sold it to me.
I have watched this woman and man work the system for far too long. The woman has said that it not her fault that people would use drugs with her son. It’s not her fault that others would use bad word and teach her 2 year old son these words. It’s not her fault that she was defrauding the link card system for a child that she did not have; after all DHS had given her the link card. This woman will be 21 in 6 months and to this date she has wanted to blame everyone for what has happened in her life and as I look back on it she is right. It’s not her fault; after all when she has giving her a free ticket to break the law and blame everyone else for it; so it the people fault.
These thugs told your offices a good story and they had not one thing to support it; they just took the woman word for what she said So much that they never ran her or the guy that was with her finger print to see if they were wanted anywhere; they let them sit and make calls from her cell phone. I don't know what happen with this car and at this point I don't care; however I do know that the action your office took on that day will make sure that the people of the state of IL, will never know and I have to make sure that these types of cases come to light who knows how many more are their.
Where was the justice for the owner of the car? How does he get his car back? These are things that your office never though about, they just took two gang bangers word. If your office feels that these two were the victims in all this, then how come they just did not give the car back to them? They did not do this because they were not the legal owner of the car and never had the permission from the owner to drive the car, so if one was to look at the way the laws are they would say that they broke the law However in Phoenix IL this is not against the law, its like your officer said none of this ever happen; and without the police report I guess it did not.
