A state investigation report indicates the professional guardian could face felony criminal chargers for withholding medical care from a ward she was appointed by the court to protect.
“She's put us through misery. It's not us. It's what she did to Steve. She killed him,” said Linda Lanier, who filed a complaint with the state against professional guardian Rebecca Fierle.
Lanier’s friend Steven Stryker choked to death at St. Joseph’s Hospital in May.

Stryker had a chronic condition that made it difficult for him to swallow.
He died after Fierle ordered his feeding tube removed, then signed a do-not-resuscitate order.

The biased and unbalanced views of child protection by mainstream media

Can someone please explain why the Australian Newspapers to not appear to print a balanced view of child protection? All they ever print is how hard done by the caseworkers are (even when they allow a child to be harmed), yet only print how bad parents are. In fact, even the worst parents do most of the caring for the children, and caseworkers do nothing practical for the children. All they ever do is paperwork. So long as they get their paperwork done everything appears OK.
Why are parents time pressures and needs not printed ever, to ensure proper community supports for parents, but the papers are fixated on staffing levels and the daily routines of handsomely paid social workers?
Here is the SMH complaining about staffing level on behalf of social workers : Click here And here they are again complaining about the daily routine... They claim to be really busy but appear to have enough time to lobby and talk to the newspapers ... Click here. What a joke.

"[W]e have the same problem, I think, in the institution of the law as well as in the institutions of our churches, etc.... [T]here is clearly a need for the inclusion in the terms of reference for the Royal Commission, under 'institution', the institution of the law. - Senator Bill Heffernan
I was given an order to produce, and I produced, documents to justify my case to the McClellan Royal Commission. I have some of those documents here...
This one I am holding up here, for instance, asks, about boys picked up by Judge so-and-so... This is a police intelligence document that says, 'A certain judge used to pick up boys in the toilets opposite Marcellin College.'
That particular judge...allowed a father who was abusing his foster children and whom he found guilty in a closed court, with names suppressed, to go back to the family home.

Dossier indicates drive to increase adoptions is punitive for low-income families and alternatives exist
The research found a 65% rise in the number of children that are separated from their parents since 2001.
The push to increase adoption in England is punishing low-income women, who are increasingly losing their children due to poverty, according to research by Legal Action for Women.
A report to be presented at the House of Commons on Wednesday contains new research from the legal service and campaign group, which suggests the policy of increasing adoption has not reduced the number of children in care – as it was intended to – but has increased the number of those separated from their parents.

They are claiming that there is a large child abduction network throughout Australia. Don't allow yourself to be taken in by the narrative that is being provided and reported by mainstream media. They are trying to make out that the two men and their connections who have been arrested, are criminals. They are not. They are heroes, every single one of them.
The catastrophic crisis in the family courts and connected child safety systems has dramatically imploded. It has reached a point where these systems themselves are charging and jailing advocates and professionals who are desperately trying to protect children, after their parents find that legal remedies have hit brick walls where the abuse of their children is often disregarded through inadequate investigations and misconduct.
