Honorable Mr Steil AND OTHERS:
With all due respect-
Let me assure you that the Representative of GOGEBIC county got a copy of the Colemans statement. We are estimating from feedback and tracking, literally thousands have read this story.
Not only is the story being talked about in GOGEBIC county, MICHIGAN, and the nation, IT IS BEING READ AROUND THE WORLD and plastered on websites. The feedback is astonishing.
We are pushing for big time exposure at the national level and we are getting it.
This is not a district problem. This is indeed a national problem. IT IS MICHIGAN‘S PROBLEM.
You must understand that the Colemans are getting a TREMENDOUS amount of support from people all over the country. You must understand the depth and scope of the problem with the abuses by the Child Protective System. People of note are well aware of what is going on with the hell that the Coleman family has went through.
Countless people in MICHIGAN and the nation have lived the nightmare.
I talked to Robert last night and he told me that Caitlyn has been vaginally examined at least three times. The baby has been gynecologically inspected as well.
Caitlyn reported to her father that the DOCTOR DID NOT WEAR GLOVES AS HE TOUCHED HER PEE PEE AND BUTT.
Is he the mysterious “DOCTOR” EDWARDS?
Mr. Coleman has miles of tape on the siege of his family. He has just submitted the clip of Caitlyns telling about the DOCTOR who touched her private parts without gloves on to YOU TUBE for the world to see.
MICHIGAN‘S SHAME.
It is Robert and Janets intention to continue to expose the sick and broken system by submitting excerpts from the reams of tapes that they have.
Expect to see more of it on YOU TUBE.
Failures of the Child Protective Services which have resulted in the horrendous abuse and murder of children have blazed the front pages of this state, MICHIGAN‘S, newspapers.
Far too many children and families are suffering throughout MICHIGAN. Gogebics problem is your problem. It is my problem and it is the problem of every family in this state.
I have gotten the same response from the politicians at the national level.
At least they responded with a “not my problem”. At least there was a response.
Protocall in your conceding any comments or actions to the esteemed Representative from GOGEBIC county’s district is out of courtesy and I understand that. However, someone has to stand up for our children.
YOU are the only MICHIGAN legislator who has responded so far.
The governor, deputy governor and first gentlemen have yet to respond to my concerns about child abuse and STATE SANCTIONED CHILD ABUSE via the agencies who are there to protect children..
I have studied the problem intently for a number of years now and what I am finding out is shocking. I want the corruption exposed.
I demand that changes are made for the good of MICHIGAN‘S children and their families.
There is far too much abuse by the system that is intended to protect children. Instead of protecting the innocent babes, they are child grinding machines. Federal dollars for foster care is good for the states coffers but, very bad for MICHIGAN‘S children.
Too often, I am finding a conflict of interests where those involved in the decision making process have “interests” in the adoption agencies, group foster care homes and support services for CPS.
The nations newspapers frequently publish articles exposing CPS and CPS support workers as pedophiles.
There is a lot of money and debauchery to be made off of removing children from loving homes.
IT NEEDS TO STOP.
I have several laws in mind that I would like to see passed that would help insure that children get a better chance of surviving the Child Protective System.
Among several laws that need to be passed is a conflict of interest law. NO MORE JUDGES SETTING ON THE BOARDS OF ADOPTION AGENCIES AND GROUP FOSTER HOMES. This must be a no no.
It does not matter to me if the children who are being destroyed because the state says so, are in GOGEBIC county or Ingham county or Wayne county. They are all residents of Michigan and I will fight for them.
Will YOU?
I appreciate your response and I truly hope that I gave you fodder for some serious soul searching and thinking about the children in MICHIGAN!
thank you
Martha Hyde

Dear Ms. Hyde,
Thank you for contacting my office with your concerns about the Coleman’s situation.
In an effort to better address your concerns, please send their home mailing address and contact information. Let me assure you, this is in no way intended to convey unwillingness on my part to be of assistance. Rather it is a matter of professional courtesy to allow the appropriate legislator the opportunity to assist his or her own constituents.
Again, thank you for contacting me, I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,

Robert and Janet Coleman need our help.
Let’s see what we can do to pull together and help their children find their way home safe and sound once again. This is a true story that began in March 2008. Please listen to this story.
We need to protect our children.
Below, you find three documents on Youtube that shows how corrupt the system is. The Colemans rights have been violated.
Also, please read Janet and Roberts statement explaining what happened. The Colemans are good people who have been abused by the system. Please understand that Child Protective Services contracts their services out to PRIVATE FOR PROFIT COMPANIES. There is a great deal of money to be made off of creating misery for children and their families.
Robert and Janet did not hurt their little girls. Caitlyn and Ashley were battered in foster care.
I am asking you all to forward this on to others in order to make our world a better place for families. This is an important effort as what happened to the Colemans is happening to good families all over Michigan and throughout the country. Please Google CPS foster care corruption.
You will be shocked at what you learn.
Let’s fight the good fight and help this family and others save their wee ones from the abuse of CPS and foster care.
Please pass this story on to everyone, friends, family, your church AND YOUR LEGISLATORS!
As good and decent people, we need to stand up to state sanctioned abuse.
Robert & Janet Colemans Story
Child Protective Services has taken our 6 year old Caitlyn and baby Ashley from our loving arms because of lies.
The improper, heavy handed, illegal, and over zealous actions by Child Protective Services, police officers and foster care is child abuse. Child Protective Services has harmed our children.
Our family has suffered greatly because of the actions of county and state officials who acted on the lies of vindictive people.
While we were on a vacation, our hotel was surrounded by police officers from several departments and all of the entrances were blocked. As our room was raided and our little girls were being carried away, our babies screams were heard throughout the hotel. It was a surreal experience being surrounded by police, seeing folks come out of their rooms as our pleading and crying children were rushed to a police car.
Our girls have not been abused by us. Caitlyn and Ashley were taken during a siege at the hotel that we were staying in. We were terrorized because of someones lies. Our children were absolutely loved and well cared for when the Child Protective Services broke into our lives.
Our first contact with Child Protective Services began with deceit. We had the right to be with our children when CPS was at our home to interview us and the girls. Child Protective Service said that if we did not leave them alone with our children that they would get a court order and take Caitlyn and Ashley from us then.
We complied, even though we knew that it was our legal right to be with Caitlyn and Ashley. We did not want to loose our little girls.
Officials have admitted that they had no right to take Caitlyn and Ashley since they did not find fault at the initial interview and did not remove our children at that time. We were told that we would have to go through a trial before a judgment to remove our children could be made.
Our girls were torn from us in a terroristic manner and put into harms way in foster care.
Caitlyn and Ashley have not been abused by their parents. Caitlyn and Ashley have been abused by Child Protective Services and their agents, numerous police departments and foster care.
At our first court hearing we were ordered to produce the girls original birth certificates, social security cards, their immunization records and our signatures to terminate our rights as Caitlyn and Ashleys parents.
We were treated as guilty with absolutely no evidence to support the claims.
We were accused of spanking our daughter Caitlyn.
We do not abuse our children.
Our friends and families support us as loving, good and fit parents. The people in our church are with us, people in the reform movement are with us. And importantly, our daughters own pediatrician will support us as good and proper parents.
Our children were taken in a siege, have been physically and psychologically scrutinized by doctors who we did not give permission to examine them. We are still Caitlyn and Ashleys parents and we demand the right to parent them by making choices for them.
We demand the right to protect them.
Our children had a right to their own doctor.
Caitlyn has been taken to a dentist. She was scheduled for an appointment with our family dentist. Her appointment was not met because of CPS. Child Protective Services chose a dentist, not her own and submitted her to first time dentistry without the comfort of her parents .
Because of false allegations our daughters have been terrorized.
People that we knew, who we tried to help, made false accusations against us out of anger. We have been subjected to threats made against us and our children. Janets life has been threatened.
Threats to beat and murder her are unsettling at the least.
Our children may be taken away because people had a score to settle. Because of lies, Caitlyn and Ashley have been abused by people in the system and by the system itself.
Our accusers are bragging about what they have done and what they want to do to us and to Caitlyn and Ashley. They want to do bodily harm to us, they want us out of the way, and they want to adopt our children. We now know that our children have been beaten by our accusers. They are bragging now that they will claim our children.
Child Protective Services has disregarded the fact that Caitlyn and Ashley still have parents. The CPS has forced our little girls into all myriad of poking and prodding and mental abuse by the agency and its contract personnel. All while denying them the love and comfort of their mother and father.
Ashley came to the first visitation with bruises and a burn mark on her wrists, a bump on her head, a deep cut on her leg, multiple scratches on her back and she did not smell good. We have asked for her injuries to be identified and documented and have seen nothing.
Caitlyn has come to the first visitation with bruises and what appeared to be a burn on her. We are particularly concerned with the bruises on Caitlyns ankles and elbows. Again, we have asked for the bruises to be identified and documented by CPS and their agents but are yet to see the report.
Caitlyn was examined early on and no molestation was found. After Caitlyn had been in foster care she was examined again and found to have had her hymen damaged and she had a white pimply rash on her butt.
The claim was made that she was examined by Dr. Edwards in Marquette .
There is no Dr. Edwards in Marquette hospitals.
It is ridiculous for CPS to claim that our children were molested by us. Doctors records support the fact that the children showed no evidence of it when they were removed from our care. The records prove that the time of the first exam, the children had not been molested. Supervised visitations would prevent any possible molestation by the us. A later physical exam proves that our children were molested in foster care under the watchful eye of Child Protective Services.
Child Protective Services have taken our little girls and put them into foster care where they have been horribly abused.
Caitlyn, our oldest is just 6 years old. Ashley, our youngest is two.
Janet, my wife is pregnant. The stress and helplessness that she experienced from seeing our dear little girls bruised and burned and being drained and distressed caused Janet to leak amniotic fluids. The stress of Janet seeing our children abused put our unborn baby in danger.
Janet made an overnight stay at the hospital because Child Protective Services was not protecting Caitlyn and Ashley from abuse while in their care and in foster care.
Caitlyn, not only physically abused, has suffered mental and emotional abuses as well. We fear that she will not ever be the same.
Caitlyn is confused and does not understand why it is that she has been asked by CPS to lie. She feels a great deal of guilt because she was asked by them to lie and say that we beat her. She knows this is a lie and does not understand why she is told to say that. She only knows that she was told that she would be allowed to come home if she did lie and say that we beat her.
Caitlyn repeatedly analogizes to us. She is deeply regretting her words. Caitlyn feels a great deal of guilt that should not be on any child. The manipulation of a childs emotions as CPS is doing, is abuse.
Asking a child to tell a lie that would force her innocent parents to be labeled as child abusers and forced into a service plan is abuse by Child Protective Services. We feel that complying with the service plan would be an admission of guilt.
We are not guilty.
We have been lied to, threatened, our children have suffered horribly, our unborn baby has been put into danger.
Laws have been broken by the authorities and our telephone has been tapped without a court order.
Our supervised visitations have been cut short and also outright denied. Child Protective Service workers have broken court orders and refused to let us see Caitlyn and Ashley. Our little girls were there waiting for us in the very next room and were waiting to see us.
The Child Protective Service worker repeatedly lied and twisted facts in her reports. She lied about events that took place during an earlier visit. She was also angry because Caitlyn asked when she could come home and we told her 17 days. We were trying to comfort Caitlyn with positive words which were forbidden by CPS.
When we became irritated and disgusted with the lies, we revealed that we had been recording our meetings with CPS and our visitations. At that point we were denied further visitation with our children.
Clearly the worker was frustrated, angered and embarrassed by the revelation of the tape recordings.
Evidence that proves that the Child Protective Worker lied, twisted facts, threatened and denied a court order for our visitation rights has been published on Youtube.
We are asking that this case be dropped as we are innocent and a case is being fabricated against us. Our little girl Caitlyn and baby Ashley have been physically, mentally and emotionally abused because of Child Protection Services.
Please return our beloved little girls.
We swear that our statements are the truth.

> At no time will any video or audio recording devices including cameras be used during parenting time and/or during contact with the caseworker or service providers. Failure to comply will result in your visit being terminated.
> There will be no questions or concerns regarding this case discussed in the presence of the children. All concerns will be directed toward the caseworker and/or your attorney in private. Failure to comply will result in your visit being terminated.
> Parents will ensure that discussions, topics and situations during supervised visitation promote a healthy environment and are in the best interests of the children. Failure to comply will result in your visit being terminated.
> Comments made to the children that are deemed inappropriate at any time may result in postponement of future visits.
> All visitation is to be supervised by Child and Family Services staff. Any additional supervision must be approved by the Court.
> Parenting time is designated for parents. At no time will an unauthorized party attend parenting time. Any additional parties must be authorized through Child & Family Services, the Department of Human Services, and/or the Court.
> A nutritious snack, food or drink for the children will be provided by the parents. Diapers and wipes will also be provided by the parents during the supervised visits. Bags containing contents required for visitation will be subject to examination prior to visitation.
> No other personal items will be brought into Child and Family Services under any circumstances. Failure to comply will result in your visit being terminated.
> No form of physical punishment or humiliation during the visits. Failure to comply will result in your visit being terminated.

Additionally, upon arrival for visitation, parents will sign an acknowledgement stating their agreement to follow the parameters outlined.

> We received your letter in regards to the parameters for visitation. You stated that “Child and Family Services would like you to have regular visitation with your children, however the requirements below must be followed in order for visitation to occur”.
>
> If that statement were true and correct, then you would not continue to cancel our scheduled visits with our children. Why didn’t we receive these parameters for visitation before now, if they were in existence, wouldn’t we have been given them before our first visit? We’ve had five supervised visits with our children, and four visits have been canceled. We had our camera during prior visits, and freely took pictures, but this was never mentioned previously.
>
> Included in your parameters you state that “There will be no questions or concerns regarding this case discussed in the presence of the children. All concerns will be directed toward the caseworker and/or your attorney in private”. We don’t control our children’s thought process. Caitlyn has a free will, and she wants and deserves answers! We can’t possibly stop her from asking questions about Her life and future. Why is it ok for you to question Caitlyn in your guise of “it’s a secret”, yet we are not allowed to exchange normal questions between parent and child.
>
> You also stated that “Parents will ensure that discussions, topics and situations during supervised visitation promote a healthy environment and are in the best interests of the children. Failure to comply will result in your visit being terminated”. Caitlyn was obviously coached, before our visits, as to what she is and isn’t allowed to say. Normally a free spirited, outspoken child, Caitlyn was in fear of disclosing the truth to us under the watchful eye of you as the caseworker.
>
> We have absolutely no problem bringing the necessities for our children. But we do have a problem with you trying to continuously violate our Constitutional Rights and us. You stated that “Bags containing contents required for visitation will be subject to examination prior to visitation”. Again, these are new rules that you are making up as you go along. We were never informed of this, and you never searched anything we brought in before. Do you have a search warrant for these searches you want to conduct?
>
> In your closing paragraph you state “The primary goal is to have a cooperative relationship between the caseworker and parents in order to achieve family reunification. Your full cooperation is required to proceed with parenting time”.
>
> You mention family reunification, and make continuous threats with canceling our visitation time with our children if we don’t comply, yet we’ve done nothing to deserve this abuse from you. We have cooperated with everyone that we’ve come in contact with since our children were viciously removed away from us. Regardless of how much we cooperate with you, you continue to cancel our visits.
>
> You tell us not to ask our children any questions. Caitlyn and Ashley are our children, we have every right to inquire about their mental and physical well-being, and it’s not in our nature to not have concerns for them. Our parental rights have not been terminated. We wish to continue making all decisions pertaining to the rearing and upbringing of our children. We have not, nor do we intend to forfeit any legal right afforded to us as parents. With that being said, we refuse to sign off on any of our constitutional rights, therefore we will not comply with your fictcious parameters for visitation. You are canceling the visit you schedule for Monday, due to our refusal to give up our rights to an illegal search.
>
> At this time, we’d like to also make you aware of the fact that we are in the process of reviewing our options for other sources of supervision during our visits. We are also filing a motion for more frequent and meaningful visitation. In addition, we will also be filing a grievance with the Depart of Human Services, in regards to your inappropriate behavior and continuous threats. You are supposed to be looking out for the best interest of the children, but instead worry needlessly about us recording family moments.
