REPORTING FOR THE CT LAW TRIBUNE, ISAAC AVILUCEA PROVIDES AN UPDATE ON THE FOY CASE!

Isaac Avilucea reports as follows:

"On March 20, 2014, state child welfare officials took three young children from the Simsbury home of two attorneys who were in the midst of a bitter divorce.

  1. Having read the article, I do not understand why those kids are in foster care. The state can take kids away from their parents -- in this case both parents -- and put them in foster care based on vague, unproven allegations of "emotional abuse." Yet somehow the state does not consider the impact of its own actions on the kids?! Putting them in foster care is the real abuse.

    1. I would agree with this assessment. I also want to say that my best bet is that there are more cases exactly like this out there, but because this is juvenile court and "secret" and parents are subject to gag orders people are unaware of the extent of the problem. My best guess is that the Foy case is the tip of the iceberg. What a nightmare for these children.
