CHILD *** ABUSE IN WOMEN'S SHELTERS

by Richard Brautigan <richard.brautigan@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jul 19, 2008 at 09:29 AM

For several years, True Equality Network (TEN) has conducted 
investigations into re****ts of child abuse, child molestation, abuse of 
women in the shelters, organized operation of prostitution, sales of 
illegal drugs, misuse of federal funds, and violations of employment laws.

We have discovered an astoni****ng amount of illegal activities. However, 
we have not been able to discuss these cases publicly because they have 
been turned over to the various government agencies for prosecution.

Last week, one shocking case involving child ***ual abuse in a women’s 
shelter opened up that we can talk about. This is the first of many 
stories that will be exposed in the coming months.

Before discussing the case, it is im****tant for all readers to fully 
understand the goal of True Equality Network. The structure of the 
Violence Against Women Act and state laws that have evolved around 
pass-through funding requirements have placed the funding in the hands 
of radical non-governmental organizations that care more about ensuring 
their monopoly over entitlements than anything else.

The agenda begins with the American Bar Association Commission On 
Domestic Violence, and Senator Joe Biden’s undying sup****t for this 
dangerous system, and far too often ends with abuse of women in the 
streets. TEN and many others are demanding major reforms of VAWA and 
will not rest until Congress takes appropriate actions.

Alleged child ***ual abuse at the “Another Way” shelter

The case involves a four-year-old girl and her mother who went to the 
“Another Way” shelter located in Lake City, Florida. According to the 
police re****t, the girl was ***ually molested by a nine-year-old girl.

The contents of the police re****t do not begin to describe what really 
happened. “Jane Doe 783”, is a mandated re****ter who discovered the 
incident. She helped the mother re****t the incident to Florida’s 
Department of Children and Families (DCF) and helped her make the police 
re****t. She contacted True Equality Network and provided us with a 
statement describing the whole story.

According to Jane Doe 783, the 4-year-old girl was molested on June 4, 
2008 between 8 and 9 pm by another girl, age 9. It is not known if any 
of the shelter’s advocates were aware of the event. A babysitter 
responsible for watching the two children had left them unattended in a 
playroom together. One of the children then locked the door from the 
inside.

The babysitter managed to get one of the children to open the door. She 
found the 4-year old with a blanket wrapped around her. When the 4-year 
old stood up, the blanket fell and the babysitter noticed her pants and 
panties were around her ankles. The 4-year old then ran from the 
playroom while trying to pull her pants up.

The babysitter took the 4-year told to the bathroom, during which time 
the 4-year old told the babysitter the 9-year old had put her fingers in 
her “privates.”

The babysitter then gave the 4-year old a bath. During the bath the 
babysitter left the 4-year old alone in the tub. When she returned she 
found the mother of the 9-year old yelling at the 4-year old, claiming 
this was just a game the girls play.

After the babysitter got the mother of the 9-year old to leave the 
bathroom, the 4-year old repeated her original story saying that it was 
not a game they play. The 4-year old, while crying said that the mother 
of the 9-year old girl told her not to tell anyone about what happened.

An Attempted Cover-Up

When the mother of the 4-year old girl returned to the shelter at 
approximately 12:00 AM and found out about the event, she wanted to 
re****t it to police. But the shelter advocate, Gloria Taylor, said she 
had to speak with the residential director, Shanna Travis first. Ms. 
Travis told the mother of the 4-year old that she should not call the 
police or DCF at this time because it would cause great distress to the 
little girl. The shelter manager never re****ted the incident to the 
police or DCF and encouraged the mother of the 4-year old girl not to 
re****t the incident.

Shelter advocates were adamant about not re****ting the incident to 
authorities. Their position was based on an assertion that, ”no re****ts 
could be made due to the confidentiality of others in the shelter and if 
re****ts were made, no names could be given because of confidentiality. 
Even though a criminal act had taken place, they could not re****t it in 
order to maintain the confidentiality of the participants.”

However, Re****ting requirements issued by the Florida Council Against 
***ual Violence unquestionably require re****ting of child abuse 
occurring in women’s shelters to state authorities. Moreover, the 
shelter is required to re****t such incidents to the Florida Coalition 
Against Domestic Violence (FCADV) as specified in the their governing 
minimum standards for shelter operations.

Florida’s DCF also require mandated re****ters to re****t actual and 
suspected cases of child abuse in shelters.

It was later discovered that another child ***ual abuse instance 
occurred two months earlier, involving the same 9-year old female 
perpetrator, which was also not re****ted to authorities.

Why didn’t anyone in the shelter think these children needed help?

Reform of VAWA is mandatory

This and many more accounts will be exposed by True Equality once the 
witnesses have completed their re****ts to the authorities. These cases 
will clearly illustrate that the Violence Against Women Act and the 
oversight procedures of the funding systems and shelter operations must 
be reformed.

The shelters operate on what is called an, “Empowerment Model” that 
provides no rules or guidance to the participants. As a result 
“empowerment” programs are actually teaching the shelter participants 
how to lie, cheat, and steal, while hiding behind the cloak of shelter 
confidentiality. The gross lack of accountability of the entire domestic 
violence sup****t system places individuals working or staying in abuse 
shelters in positions that can easily be take advantage of.

If Senator Joe Biden does not want to go down in flames, he would be 
wise to stop backing big-government advocates who condone abuses of 
women, denial of services to men, and parental rights; and begin working 
with True Equality Network and other equality advocacy groups.
