Senator Roach Attacked Again
Excuse me, I have to look over my shoulder....
Yep, the Senate Republican Caucus and the Senate Ethics Committee and
yep...several DSHS workers at high levels read this blog and are
do***enting what I say.
They are really glad I am blogging because they want to use
something...ANYTHING...against me.
Today, I called the attorney for the Senate Ethics Board. He told me
that after he received a complaint from the foster mother that the
board would have to look into whether or not my trying to help a
constituent was, in fact, unethical.
(Note: The foster mother's complaint was about what I was saying...I
never used her name...but she thought I was talking about her and just
didn't like free speech. Her name was used in open court...so it was
public...but I never used it. The Ethics Board with Senate Republicans
agreeing---without asking I know this---have decided to expand the
complaint on their own. They want to find me guilty of unethical
conduct for helping a constituent and fighting tyrannical government.
That, by the way, is what I do when government wants to take away
rights. God forbid an elected official who battles for rights. That is
so passe.)
I guess it is OK to help...sometimes. For instance, the Department of
Trans****tation wanted to put a round-about on a rural state highway in
my district. Most of us felt it was a bad idea to put cattle trucks
and logging trucks (essentially big semis) in a round-about. We also
thought that it was wrong to take the private property it would have
required to put in the round-about when they would not have had to
take any private property to put in a traffic light at the same spot.
I fought hard to influence government. After all, they serve the
people and the people did not want any of what they were di****ng out.
And, today there is no round about.
There is, by the way, no manual that is given out when you become a
state senator. You work for the people you represent.
In the same area of the round-about (Enumclaw) DSHS took a child and
has ignored the law that says family should be the first consideration
for placement. They actually had two positive in-home placements for
relatives (the grandparents and an aunt/uncle). DSHS actually hid the
fact of the aunt and uncle from the judge. That's right. They did not
want the child with relatives so they withheld information from the
judge.
And, as I have been told...DSHS has almost totally ignored a court
order to let the grandparents see their grandchild. For months and
months, in fact...they were told (a lie) by the CASA that they had
been ordered NOT to see their grandchild by the court! Imagine how
they felt when they found out they were lied to all those months.
Where the heck is an ethic board when the attorney CASA lied to these
people?
So, now the Senate Ethics Committee wants to attack me for calling it
like it is. Surely, there must be something wrong when a Senator
fights for an individual family. Why would anyone spend their time
that way?
I have asked only two things from DSHS...that they follow the law and
the court orders.
Oh, and, yes, after the fact, I expressed my displeasure that they put
this mother and child in a home with 13 people and one bathroom. Oh, I
certainly did tell them about the restraining order that the foster
mother had against her old lover. It would have been irresponsible if
I had not done so. And, I certainly did re****t and demand an
investigation when little Lisa showed up at daycare with a black eye!
That was not happening without me! People who care about kids do not
put them in danger. (Let's see...wasn't it DSHS that put the
pyromaniac teenager back in the home with four other children...only
to have two kids burn to death?)
How about it...I am being persecuted for trying to help people against
an agency that forces a child to stay with parents that are starving
her!! (Pls. see earlier PRR: the 14 year-old who weighed 47 pounds.)
For those persecutors that read my blog....SHAME ON YOU FOR NOT HAVING
THE GUTS TO STAND UP FOR ANYTHING AND THEN PERSECUTE THOSE WHO DO.

DHS, CPS, whatever it is called in whatever state you find it; it
boils down to them being bullies.
They are used to running over and abusing the rights of people who
cannot fight back. This is what they do to regular people.
When you came onto their radar they no doubt looked up your personal
information on state computers including that of your families. They
couldn't find anything so they were left with the resort to file an
ethics complaint, or the threat of.
They are bullies pure and simple. You can't use diplomacy with a
bully; you have to knock them on their butt.
Please be proactive and take this to the court. That is the only thing
that is going to stop them.
