Americans are in an uproar about illegal immigrant parents and children separated at the border. The level of hysteria surrounding this topic has reached a fever pitch with senators like Chuck Schumer mugging distraught for the cameras at every opportunity. While the shrill voices shriek loudly about the rights of Mexicans and other assorted border jumpers, American parental rights are being stripped from them, unconstitutionally, every single day. (Chuck Schumer has yet to freak out about it on national television.) American parents have lost their due process and Fourth Amendment rights, and most of them don't even know it. Most anyone who has been visited by Child Protective Services can testify to the absolute terror that the state can inflict on a family for very little or no reason at all.
Right now in the state of Mississippi, Michael Chambers is missing his little girl, Belle. When Belle was around two years old her mother abandoned her in the care of her grandmother. Chambers took custody of her after that. Lacking resources and the ability to track down his ex to serve her with custody papers, Chambers just took care of his daughter like a father should. Like many single parents, personal disputes often result in one parent harassing the other through any means possible. Belle's mother would occasionally call Chambers and shortly after the calls CPS would show up knocking on his door. The social workers where he lived understood the nature of the calls but when he moved to Warren county, things changed.
His nightmare began when a Mississippi social worker, Kyra Reed (who also goes by Kyra Carson), knocked on his door demanding entrance without a warrant. Chambers was never told what the charges were. "She didn't tell me what I was accused of and demanded to interview my 6-year-old daughter without my presence," Chambers told PJM. "I told her that was unacceptable, but she was more than welcome to talk to her with me there without me interfering. She seemed perturbed, but accepted that. She then told me she wanted to search my house," said Chambers. "I told her I had no problem with that, but wanted her to get a court order or a warrant as I am a bit of a constitutionalist and would just feel better having that respected. She was immediately angry. She hopped in her car without another word and drove off."
An American asking for a proper warrant signed by a judge to search his private property is 100 percent within his rights to do, or so we thought. "The next day, I got my daughter early from school and went to the CPS office with her to speak to a supervisor to make sure they understood that I wasn't hiding or attempting elusiveness of any sort," said Chambers. "I allowed the supervisor to look her over and explained my concerns about my insistence on a warrant before the search. I was told that the warrant wasn't a problem to get and that they would do that so we could close the case and finish out the interaction."
But that's not what happened.

When a mother told doctors that she was using CBD oil to treat her daughter’s seizures, and it was working wonders, they responded by reporting her to CPS.
When a mother tried cannabidiol as a treatment for her young daughter, who was having nearly 40 seizures per day, she was amazed by the effects and thought she had finally found a solution after pharmaceutical drugs failed to work. However, after her prayers were answered, the state stepped in and threatened to take her daughter away.
Lelah Jerger’s daughter, Jaelah, began having spasms when she was only 6 months old. Quickly, those spasms turned into seizures and Jaelah was given antiepileptics, pharmaceutical medications designed to control seizures. Not only was the medication not effective, but Jerger said it produced harmful side effects that created even more problems.
After finding CBD oil (cannabidiol, derived from hemp), the concerned mother was amazed by how effective it was at controlling Jaelah’s seizures. Unfortunately for the Jerger family, Child Protective Services (CPS) got involved and threatened to take Jaelah away from the family, all because Lelah chose to treat her daughter’s condition with CBD instead of pills.
In an interview with People magazine, Jerger explained her daughter’s diagnosis, how CPS got involved, and how scary the situation was at the thought of losing her children. She said Jaelah’s epileptic condition was very rare but she was relieved to finally have an answer as to why her daughter was having spasms.
“She has a rare type of epilepsy called benign myoclonic epilepsy in infancy … Finally we knew what we were dealing with, but we were scared because we didn’t know anything about epilepsy at all.”
Doctors, who are only trained in most cases to diagnose and prescribe pharmaceuticals for illnesses, ordered Keppra—the brand name for Levetiracetam. But doing her due diligence and reading the harmful side effects of the drug, Jerger said she became worried when she learned Keppra, like antidepressants, can cause people to become suicidal. Worse still, the pharmaceuticals were not working. Jaelah was still having 40 seizures daily.
Jerger said she began to look for a safer, natural alternative to drugs. She found cannabidiol, purchased it online from a Colorado retailer, and began to give Jaelah CBD drops, twice per day. She said the results were amazing.

The Millennium Report
TMR Editor’s Note
All the evidence indicates that award-winning Fox journalist Martin
Burns was killed because of how aggressively he was pursuing various
institutional child abuse claims. Martin was working with powerful
people in government and Hollywood to bring to light a very serious and
ongoing problem which has curiously avoided exposure … over decades of
rampant child abuse.
There is no question that Martin Burn’s last project promised to be a
HUGE turning point. He had fastidiously put all the pieces in place so
that unprecedented revelations would be made in a highly authoritative
fashion. The real enablers within and outside of the Child Protective
Services system were under threat like no other time. Likewise, the true
reasons behind this multi-decade institutional crime spree were finally
coming out thanks to his persistence and courage.
The Martin Burns saga has certainly not ended with his death. Just
like the pedophilia scandal within the Roman Catholic Church, once this
genie has been let out of the bottle, there’s no putting it back in.
Martin Burns, perhaps as no other champion journalist, was dedicated to
breaking this story so that it could no longer avoid the attention of
ALL of key players … CPS supervisors and case workers, family court
judges, law enforcement, social workers, etc.
In short Martin Burns let the genie out of the bottle once and for all.
The Washington Times Removes Legacy Article On Fox News Investigative Reporter Martin Burns
Award-Winning Journalist Martin Burns Was A Champion Against Child Abuse
“His death has been added to a growing list of prominent
child justice campaigners who all died just ahead of a planned release
of either, a documentary containing highly sensitive information, or a
bid for new legislation to contain child trafficking and abuse.”[1]
State of the Nation
Martin Burns was a courageous advocate journalist who campaigned
mightily for the protection of vulnerable children, especially those
caught within the system. His brand of investigative journalism was
known for its fearlessness and ferocity. He left no stone unturned in
his quest to know what was really happening to children who wound up in
the custody of Child Protective Services.
The quote above comes from The Washington Times (TWT) article written
about the Martin Burns’ story that was published on Friday, October 18,
2013 under the title Fight against child abuse loses another prominent voice.
What is particularly suspicious is that every single post of this
particular report on the internet has been scrubbed except the two
versions that are found at State of the Nation.
The link below from the internet archive service known as Wayback Machine
captured the front page of The Washington Times on October 18th, 2013.
It is clear that all references to the original article by author Clare
O’Toole under the subtitle Disrobing Blind Justice have likewise been removed from The Washington Times home page.
https://web.archive.org/web/20131018011332/http://www.washingtontimes.com/
Therefore, the question remains: Why would The Washington
Times take the extraordinary initiative to remove every reference to and
post of their article that lauded a recognized champion of child abuse
investigative reporting?
The issue of institutionalized child abuse has literally exploded in
Los Angeles, California over the past few years. The Orange County
Child Protective Services (CPS) has come under fire for numerous and
serious violations where children were dismally failed by the system.
Therefore, it was much appreciated by many that an MSM outlet like the
TWT published stories which shed light on this very unfortunate and
ongoing predicament.
What follows is the original TWT article published on 10/18/13 for
the reader’s consideration. There is no question that the content of
this article is rarely found on any Mainstream Media website.
It contains information that is highly revelatory about the underbelly
of the “system”; in this particular case, the system of child protective
services that routinely permits children to be victimized, kidnapped,
sexually abused and illegally removed from the country.
Perhaps that is why the article was removed from The Washington Times
website. It contains naked truth about a clandestine operation that
has been functioning throughout the USA with impunity for many decades.
Let’s face it, if the 1oth Earl of Sandwich
can be called out for similar illicit and unseemly behavior, just who
might be next in the pantheon of political heavyweights. So many have
been exposed lately in both the U.K. and the U.S. that it is now clear
that this endemic problem is begging for unprecedented revelation.

Fight against child abuse loses another prominent voice
The Washington Times
Friday, October 18, 2013 – Disrobing Blind Justice by Clare O’Toole
WASHINGTON, October 18, 2013 — The death in late summer of Fox News
investigative reporter and producer Martin Burns, came as a heavy blow
to the many child advocates and suffering parents who looked to Burns’
award winning TV segments “Lost in the System,” to champion their fight for justice for child victims of abuse and trafficking.
His death has been added to a growing list of prominent child justice
campaigners who all died just ahead of a planned release of either, a
documentary containing highly sensitive information, or a bid for new
legislation to contain child trafficking and abuse.
Burns died on August 25 while out hiking in the Angeles National
Forest. The official autopsy report has been deferred for toxicology
results. Early media statements attributed cause of death to a fall
caused by a possible heart attack.
At time of writing, the LA County Homicide Department deemed it
unnecessary to investigate. Some parents and child advocates fear the
police are unaware of links between Burns’ death and those of others who
worked in a similar arena.
The LA County Coroner allegedly visited Burns’ house on the day his
body was discovered and reportedly told an inquisitive neighbor Burns
had probably suffered a “catastrophic accident” but had only minor
abrasions on his body from a fall.
According to a spokesman from the coroner’s office, Burns’ body was
recovered from a location 30’ east of the east edge of the Castle Canyon
trail en route for Inspiration Point. Hikers familiar with the trail
have commented they consider it unlikely Burns would have died from the
fall alone and they suspect other factors were involved.

Blogs and social media comments by individuals who seek clarity on
the circumstances of Burns’ death draw specific attention to links with
the deaths of three former Georgia state senators, Nancy Schaefer (R),
Bobby Franklin (R) and Robert Brown (D) and documentary maker, Bill
Bowen.
Although coming from a broad political spectrum, the three politicians were in agreement on child safety matters.
Schaefer was the most prominent investigator and supporter of issues
affecting children’s rights but also expressed reservations about rights
for gays and lesbians that drew criticism. Shortly before her death,
Schaefer agreed to an interview with “infowars.com” conspiracy theorist,
Alex Jones. Franklin was greatly derided for an extremist anti-abortion
stance and for promoting legislation to criminalize miscarriages.
While some individual, extremist values stirred controversy, the
sincerity of the three Georgia politicians’ fight to combat child abuse
has not been questioned.
All three were involved in exposing corruption and calling for
legislation to control Child Protective Services (CPS) and remove
unnecessary threats to child safety. The research, undertaken primarily by Schaefer, into the shortcomings of CPS when handling matters related to child abuse is widely considered valid.
All died within a two year period. Franklin was said to have died
from heart disease while Brown, according to the coroner, died from a
self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head. Schaeffer died in an alleged
murder/suicide incident said to have been perpetrated by her husband on
March 26 2010. Many who knew the couple believe this highly unlikely and
suggest an outside party was involved.
The deaths have been variously interpreted and details disputed. There have been many calls for further investigation to establish irrefutable cause of death in each case.
A few days before Schaefer’s death, she announced the completion of a
four-year documentary project she had personally funded to expose names
and crimes against children. Following her death, the documentary
failed to surface. Its whereabouts is still unknown.
Schaeffer was known to be friends with Bill Bowen, a former
firefighter and federal law enforcement officer who released a 30 minute
short documentary, “Innocence Destroyed.” Although a low-budget
production, the film was greatly praised for overall professionalism and
integrity toward subject matter. There was no question of political
taint influencing Bowen’s judgment. Bowen told a very credible story
about systemic failings behind the prevalence of child abuse and
trafficking.
“Innocence Destroyed” was intended as a precursor to a more probing,
feature-length film. Some online chatter identifies Bowen’s and
Schaefer’s documentaries as the same project. Washington Times
Communities has so far been unable to confirm this theory. It is
possible the full documentary was never finished since Bowen was
discovered dead on a golf course mid-September 2010, six months after
Schaefer’s death, having allegedly gone there to meet someone interested
in his work.
He was found alone. Cause of death was said to have been a
heart attack.
At the time, Bowen’s sister Beverly responded to online speculation, writing;
“While his death is untimely and because of his work, suspicious, it
looks right now to be natural causes. I’m not saying that something
would not have happened to him or that it wasn’t possible. I’m just
saying life intervened and got there first.”
As with Bill Bowen, Martin Burns was known to tackle the difficult
subjects described by his colleague and Fox news anchor Araksya
Karapetyan as; “investigative pieces on prescription drug fraud, welfare
fraud, child care scams, illegal birthing centers, just to name a few.”
His interests lead him to investigate drug cartels and individuals said
to engage in child trafficking. He investigated alleged corruption in
CPS and Family Courts.
Friends close to Burns have said he was aware he was investigating
some dangerous people but it was typical of his personality to show a
degree of nonchalance toward possible risk from anyone who might wish to
harm him.
Karapetyan described working with Burns as, “ incredibly fulfilling –
it’s what being a journalist is all about- going out there, digging,
researching, doing something for the community by uncovering abuses in
the system and giving the voiceless a voice.”
Karapetyan’s praise was echoed by a chorus of Fox 11 News personnel,
whose comments on a special tribute page set up to remember Martin
Burns, clearly showed he was respected, loved and valued and considered
an inspiration and stabilizing influence by his colleagues.
VP and News Director Kingsley Smith described Burns as; “having made a
personal difference in my professional life every day.” He wrote that
whenever Burns stopped by to share a story, the deep passion and
dedication in his work was obvious.
“Put simply, he was a caring soul. He never complained and always
worked with grace and dignity. He is on the short list of people that no
one ever complained about, ever. I will miss him. The newsroom will
miss him. Our viewers will miss him.”
The station has not responded to speculative inquiries about Burns’ death.
Tammi Stefano, Executive Director of the National Safe Child
Coalition worked closely with Burns said, “Martin was one of the best
investigative producers out there. He was covering issues too difficult
for most to grasp, let alone cover, Children in danger by a flawed
system, we were personal friends, I miss him every day.”

For those readers who would like more insight into this dire and
festering problem in the child protective services arena, the following
articles reveals some of the details of the case of Lexi Dillon.
Lexi’s
CPS situation is representative of the typical child abuse case being
mishandled in ways that are difficult to attribute to bureaucratic
incompetence or institutional neglect.
In fact many of the child abuse cases that have gone completely awry
have done so with premeditation. Therefore, the real question is
premeditated by whom? Perhaps the time has finally arrived to
ascertain exactly who or what is behind so many purposefully neglected
and deliberately mismanaged CPS child abuse cases.
