One Ohio County man who now lives in Owensboro says he and his fiancée found themselves in a similar situation to her parents, Tesla Tucker and Cage Rudd, when they were giving birth to their third child.
However, the state handled their case very differently.
Suffering from addiction, Baize and his fiancée had two of their children taken away by the state when they found out they were pregnant again.
While he says they were actively in treatment and trying to do the right things, their third child, a little boy, was born.
Due to their other two kids already being in custody of the state, he says their baby was taken, no questions asked, straight from the hospital.
“We were in treatment, trying to better our situation following our case plan, and everything was going right for us at that time, and they still removed the kid,” he explains.
Following Miya’s case, he says he couldn’t help but wonder why a similar treatment wasn’t given to Tesla Tucker and Cage Rudd, who had three of their children taken by the state and placed with family?
