It's not a matter of having faith, I'm just familiar with the process. I'm not saying it didn't happen. I'm only familiar with CPS in New York, NJ, and PA and in the situation you described the state would never open a case based on what you described. Maybe they do in Tennessee. Are you sure it was just a caseworker who requested their supervisor open a case? Because if it's true that a case was opened against a family based on what you described it is definitely grounds for a lawsuit.

In my experience the biggest problem with CPS is actually failing to follow through with a case where there is severe ongoing abuse occurring. Too many children have died as a result of child abuse that was never followed through with.

I'm not sure how it's not victim friendly to say that CPS can't open a case without a thorough investigation. It's true where I live and I would imagine there are guidelines in every state. Otherwise they could just open an investigation any time they see a bruise on a child. Imo
My sister managed a very large district for CPS. She worked 60 plus hours for MANY years. There was always a high turn over of employees due to the excessive hours and general stress of the job and constant fighting to keep funding because employees keep getting expected to do more for less. She's told me that she's had to throw tough guys with teardrop face tattoos out of her office. She finally left and got employment with a company contracted to create software that streamlines the CPS process. And guess what.....there's no funding. CPS is FAR from perfect, but I like to think my sister isn't a monster that you people are making her out to be. Just kidding about the monster part!!! We have a crazy ex wife who I called CPS on up here in TN and got less than satisfactory results, so I get it.
 
I have to be off for a bit but I want to be clear that my explaining my Romani culture isn't meant as a defense or excuse to this family in any way. Rather to offer a different perspective removed from American societal norms. Applying those to a case where it doesn't apply is going to give people a skewed perspective. I think MB's upbringing and culture being different is the reason that LE and most people think she killed her child. People are reading into something as an apple when it's an orange.

I might agree in many other cases that if the mom is lying about a missing child it doesn't look good but I don't think this case is that simple.

I don't believe that MB knows where Evelyn is, personally. She may have an idea if Evelyn is being purposefully hidden from CPS but I'm not really sure she knows much of anything aside from what AB has told her at this point.

I believe something was done with Evelyn by AB and MC. I don't know what that something is and I am very concerned about it. I don't trust MC's involvement and influence nor am I willing to trust AB with her history. I think addiction and feuding with her ex are WAY bigger factors to why Evelyn is missing than anything else.

IMO I just think that if it was a matter of another family keeping EB for awhile, AB and MB and WM and all the others would just be like enough’s enough! You don’t keep this crap going when the FBI is breathing down your neck! People are going to prison if they don’t produce that baby. Why would they keep playing these games? If it is proven that they are just hiding the kid for funsies and whatever, they are probably going to have a massive bill coming their way for wasting taxpayer resources.

What makes you think they would continue this effed up game if they didn’t have to? Why would they risk prison?

I know none of us want to believe that something bad happened, but obviously something bad happened or they would bring the truth to light and show the world that they aren’t horrible monsters who threw away a baby.
 
yesterday it was a week they must have changed it

just woke up forgive me if i am wrong lol
That's if TN will pass it. We had one local State senator hem and haw about how we might already have a law that will cover this, and another that rattled on about there already being too many laws on the books. BUT the TN lawmakers have no problem trying to push through laws that declare CNN "fake news" and the bible the official book of TN. No joke. They don't have time for silly laws that may protect children .

Yes, there is definitely a high burn out rate and a lack of funding, unfortunately. They have tried to get around that in some states by hiring non-professionals to conduct follow up visits instead of caseworkers who are swamped with paperwork. I wish they had more funding from the govt, but I guess that's easier said than done.

Either way, Family Services has started an investigation in this case, which means they will look at all medical records and hopefully interview some people who can give some insight into the care of her child. And if she really is pregnant, having an open case may allow them to monitor her prenatal care and definitely the child if there really is one. Jmo
 
"Megan "Maggie" Boswell, Evelyn’s mother, says she went to Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office to volunteer to take a lie-detector test.

But she says she was sent away because she is pregnant.

According to TBI’s official policy, a pregnant mother in her first trimester can undergo a polygraph. In the second and third trimester they need a written note from her doctor. Ultimately it is up to the discretion of the examiner if they will perform the test.

We have not confirmed whether TBI did send Boswell away Tuesday.

Boswell says her pregnancy and missing child “is just a lot to deal with at one time."

Megan Boswell speaks out about search for Evelyn, says she left her with the grandmother

I hope all three passes.

However it's highly unusual for any parent that knows their child is missing not to report it to police quickly, but if they dont then a law should be created where they are held criminally liable.

Aw... they're probably just sincere, compassionate people. They were put into the middle of the investigation through no fault of their own and maybe they want everyone to know they're good people who want Evelyn found just as much as everyone else.

From the article you posted:

“We’ve been following the case since the AMBER Alert was issued and we’re just really concerned for her safety,” Bear said. “The more people pray for her, the better.”
 
News 5 spoke with Megan "Maggie" Boswell, Evelyn’s mother. She claims she volunteered to take a lie detector test to clear her name, but says she was turned away because she is pregnant. Boswell discusses the search for Evelyn.


“Tell me about Evelyn”

“She loves sweet potatoes”

Is this bizarre to anyone else? Why is that her go-to description of her daughter?
