http://www.kansas.com/news/local/crime/article208704089.htmlThis JUST broke. Back with more...ETA: Heart warning, it's not easy to read in parts. Will be back with some quotes after I finish reading.

Thank you for posting that article. I think it's awful what Lucas had to endure, and those incidents are the documented ones. How many others went unreported/undocumented?

CPS dropped the ball.
They should be charged with child endangerment.

An adult can be arrested for putting a bruise on another adult. Followed by an order of protection.

What does it take for a child to get help?
Should family members kidnap these kids?
Take pictures of the bruises?
Call a press conference and show pictures of the bruises?
Explain to the public how you were cut out of the childs life for trying to help?
Explain to the public that CPS dropped the ball once again?
Is this the extreme folks have to go through to highlight a problem?
OR GO STRAIGHT TO THE DA'S OFFICE AND LET THEM KNOW THEY ARE ON NOTICE.

Im truly disguisted.

A few excerpts - again with the *disturbing* warning. It took me a while to get through it all, had to keep stopping.

Glass, the report says, was thought to be targeting Lucas due to her anger with the boy's father. The pre-kindergartner had bruises most often after Glass and the father fought, the state's child protection agency was told.

**

It says Emily Glass, Lucas' 26-year-old stepmother, has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, has difficulty controlling her anger and has experimented with methamphetamine and heroin.

*****

Hernandez, who is identified in the document as Glass’ fiance, hasn’t responded to messages left by The Eagle. The document describes him as the “alleged father” of the 1-year-old girl.

*****

March 2017: Someone saw Lucas with “temporary tattoos that were hiding bruises.” Lucas was reported to have been covered “from head to toe in bruises,” according to a report to the Kansas Department for Children and Families on Feb. 19, two days after Glass told police he had disappeared. The person said Lucas had a bruise on his bottom “that looked like the shape of a clothes iron. … Lucas reportedly stated (Glass) had caused the bruises,” the document says.

*****

May 16, 2017: DCF, the Kansas child protection agency, received the first of two reports of suspected abuse involving Lucas. Glass and an “unknown perpetrator” were suspected. The boy reportedly had bruising in the shape of a hand on his left arm, bruising on his left cheek and on his bottom.
“It was reported that when asked about his bruises, all Lucas would say is that (Glass) 'doesn’t like me any more,'" it says.
DCF investigated, “determined that there was not enough evidence to support the allegation. DCF closed the case.”
A separate entry says that Glass said Lucas had bruises from “playing around the house.”

*****


Late October 2017: While Glass and Lucas visited Hernandez in Carlsbad, N.M., Lucas had two black eyes, the report said. That was reported to New Mexico’s child protection services agency on Nov. 8, 2017. According to the report, he had bruises most often after Glass and Hernandez fought. Glass “may have been targeting Lucas due to her anger” with the boy’s father, the report said. Glass allegedly was using marijuana around the time she was breastfeeding her daughter.
DCF contacted the New Mexico agency, which provided its report, saying it had investigated and determined the allegations were unfounded. The report was not assigned for further review.

*****

Lots more about the DCF reports I didn't c/p for space

*****

Feb. 18, 2018: A police detective interviewed the father of Glass’ sons, who said he had primary custody and that during the custody case he found out that Glass experimented with meth and heroin and been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, the document says. He thought she might be currently using drugs because she was losing weight and acting erratically. He said he knew of concerns about domestic violence between Glass and Hernandez in front of the children and that Glass’ daughter had possibly been hurt, it says.

*****


Feb. 23, 2018: A prosecutor filed the child-in-need-of-care petition for Glass’ 1-year-old daughter, saying that Glass had failed to provide a “safe and stable living environment,” had admitted to smoking marijuana and then driving with the girl, had left Lucas alone at home, had a history of violence with Hernandez, had poor judgment and substance abuse issues and was in jail.
The petition also cited Glass’ criminal history from 2003 to 2017, including arrests for larceny, trespassing, stealing a vehicle, domestic violence and destruction of property.
The petition also contends that Hernandez was not an appropriate placement for the child either.
At the time the document was filed, it said, DCF had yet to find relatives who would be an appropriate placement for the girl. It said an "emergency exists which threatens the safety of the child."

So...there we go...

This is the first post I saw today. My heart just broke more times in one article than I thought was possible. I don't have the words...

When was this document filed?
I'm thinking more charges are coming soon related to Lucas being abused.
I'll also bet they are going to name her the suspect in Lucas's disappearance. (We already know she is, but they haven't offically named her)
EG's not going anywhere soon!

 

[noel leon]

crying....

 

[katydid23]

Bi-Polar Disorder and METH? Very ugly combination. Poor Little Lucas. My heart hurts. :cry:

 

[kkdj]

I'm really mad at JH. Really mad. There is no way he didn't know what was happening to Lucas! I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but not now. Not with this court filing by the prosecution. How could he allow this? How could he?
How can he stand by EG? There's something between those two we don't know about yet.

I'm going to have to take a small break. I can't get my emotions or tears in check. Thank you for sharing this. I hope that this wakes some of the pro-EG people up. I hope that Lucas is found soon. 😢

 

[wolvesjohnblack]

Wasn't there talk of JH coming on websleuths?

 

[kkdj]

How much does JH know?
With this new filing I really think EG called JH before the police. He knows more! imo

 

[Jewels53]

I still don't get why Lucas was there punching bag for heaven sake. Take it out on each other but not Lucas! :tears:

Where are you Lucas? We need to find you more than ever!

PB was going to reach out to him and Tricia offered to help him with his postings and our conduct. Knowing what we now know I'm pretty sure he won't be coming on here.

I also wonder if he doesn't know something.

How and heck can he support her, I know he know all of the stuff in the article! Come on JH wise up!

He doesn't need to wise up. He knows what she is. He has his own stuff going on. That's the only reason he's standing by her. There's something else they are hiding. imo

 

[kkdj]

I'm so mad I could spit bullets!

 

[Smarty Pants]

How was every claim that Lucas was being abused, how were they all "unfounded"? I could maybe see it if the same person was making all the claims but so many people noted his abuse in detail & notified proper authorities. EG (& possibly JH) made him disappear but Lucas's blood is on the hands of everyone that had the power to stop his abuse. All I can do is cry for this little boy.

Same here! Grrr
It is apparent than JH did NOTHING to keep his children safe. Now we are hearing that MH may have been injured? She's just a little baby! And I don't understand the whole "cannot find suitable relatives". What about JH's mom? I refuse to believe that there are NO relatives that are acceptable. This just comes off as CPS being lazy.
You are going DOWN Emily.

I am so beyond pissed off and upset after reading this. His Father, the state and DCF failed this little boy. The stuff he went through I just can’t. My oldest nephew is his age. [emoji24]
