WHEN A KID DIES, CPS IS USUALLY INVOLVED IN THE CASE

WHEN A KID DIES, CPS IS USUALLY INVOLVED IN THE CASE
A Houston mother who allowed her 8 year old, tube fed girl to die of malnutrition and Dehydration was under the “Supervision” of CPS; Until CPS decided the kid didn’t need any more food, and cut her off of all services.

The mother is in jail pending trial, the CPS workers who cut the child off are off working to kill somebody else’s kid.

TEXAS, IT’S A WHOLE OTHER KIND OF CHILD ABUSER.

HOUSTON — A Houston woman is accused of starving her 8-year-old daughter, who weighed just 15 pounds when she died in January 2009, Child Protective Services said.

CPS spokeswoman Estella Olguin says Almita Nicole Lockhart, 34, is accused of neglecting Halle Smith, who was unresponsive when she was taken to a hospital.

The girl, who was born prematurely, suffered a stroke and had other health issues that required her to be fed through a tube, said Olguin.

Harris County Sheriff’s Office electronic records showed Lockhart was jailed Friday on a charge of injury to a child by omission. Bail was $30,000 for Lockhart, who was booked Tuesday.

Jail records had no listing of an attorney for Lockhart. Her next court date is Feb. 24.

The Harris County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled the girl’s death a homicide. Lockhart was arrested this week once an autopsy and further investigation led authorities to believe the girl’s condition was intentionally inflicted, according to Olguin.

Lockhart allegedly kept the girl in an empty apartment and apparently did not feed her, investigators said.

“The medical examiner said her death was a homicide and said it was due to malnutrition and dehydration,” district attorney’s spokeswoman Donna Hawkins said.

A 2006 CPS home visit found the girl weighed about 46 pounds, said Olguin, but at some point Lockhart apparently stopped receiving in-home care for Halle.

  1. Since when haven't social workers cared about a child? Funny I should ask that as I have an answer...sometimes in 1997 when then President Bill Clinton signed into law the Adoption and Safe Families Act. Oh, I'm sure he thought he was doing a GOOD thing with this but did it turn out that way? Not by a long shot. It became a business. What is a business' main goal? To make money. Do they give a crap if it's legal, moral, ethical or right? Just look to the tobacco industry for the answer to that question. It stopped being about the children going on 13 years and will only get worse if we, the American people, do something to stop it. Social workers needlessly remove thousands of children from their homes every single day in America and no one is stopping them, not even the law. In fact, they're as corrupt as CPS is. Foster care providers are in the news constantly where they've beaten, starved, raped, killed or had a part in a child going missing. You want to put a stop to child abuse? Then put a stop to the illegal tactics wielded by social workers to start with.

  2. Amen.

    What we're finding more and more are foster parents who are taking in kids to pay their bills, nothing more.

    These foster children are nothing more than food on the table for the foster family, and a way for "Dad" to stay home and watch TV.

    Why are foster parents licensed to receive payment for keeping children, and the children's parents cannot receive the same help to keep their own children?
