Child Support Enforcement Agencies Need More Transparency and Accountability

laryholland@sbcglobal.net (Lary Holland) — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 04:35:45 +0000

Entrusting government officials to do the right thing nowadays, just doesn't seem very logical. As government growth continues to advance, citizen oversight seems to diminish in many key areas. Indystar.Com reported online that forgery charges were filed against ex-state worker (Indystar.Com; Forgery Charges Filed Against Ex-State Worker; Feb 10, 2010; Orig.) involving more theft of child support refunds.

Marion County prosecutors have filed forgery charges against a former state worker in connection with stolen child-support refunds.

James Lewis Parker, 47, was charged Monday with two counts of forgery as a Class C felony. Each charge carries a potential penalty of two to eight years in prison.

The various child support enforcement agencies need more transparency and accountability to ensure proper handling of significant portions of our nation's economy. As child support debt, orders, and associations expand exponentially, the crimes associated with these agencies increases as well.

Over the past several years we have noticed a climate ripe for embezzlement, identity theft, invasion of privacy, and more. Just this past year the Federal government removed some protections to the taxpayer to stop the continuous growth of these agencies. The reversal of the tax payer protection policy that was originally implemented under the Budget Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, paves the way for more disastrous consequences for taxpayers.

Just in June 2008, Delaware Child Support Program Employees were caught stealing from taxpayers and the children. Just over a year ago, we demonstrated how Theft was Running Rampid in State Child Support Programs. The widespread lack of accountability in these programs continues, without sufficiently limiting access to private data and ensuring digital fingerprints are placed on all data in the various systems nationwide, there will continue to be fraud on the taxpayers and the participants of Child Support Enforcement programs.

The Child Support Enforcement program continues to be plagued over the past several years of documented fraud, identity theft, embezzlement, bribery schemes, and more. Just take a
look at the snapshot below, and know that this is hardly a comprehensive look at the problems that exist throughout the nation with this "free for all welfare program."

Fort Bend Woman Guilty in Child Support Fraud Ring ~ "Fort Bend County jury has found 42-year-old Debra Hodge guilty of engaging in
organized criminal activity for her part in bilking over $40,000 in fraudulent child support from the Texas Attorney General's Office."

Child Support Worker Arrested in Bribery Scheme ~ "ORLANDO, Fla. -- A former employee of the Department of Revenue's Child Support Enforcement program was arrested Thursday on bribery charges." (Local6.Com "Child Support Worker
Arrested In Bribery Scheme" March 8, 2007)

Title IV-D Employee Embezzles Quarter of Million in Child Support Enforcement Money ~ "A Natomas woman stands accused of bilking the state Department of Child Support Services of more than $250,000, turning her procurement job into a means of buying a Lexus, hot tub and
big-screen television, among other things."

The Weekly Standard Indicts CSE Title IV-D Welfare Program ~ "There is mounting evidence that the system now encourages marital breakup and exacerbates fatherlessness by creating a winner-take-all game, where the losing parent--commonly a father wanting to save the marriage--is unfairly penalized by the loss of his children and by a federally enforced child support obligation."

Federal Child Support Enforcement Program Makes Little "Cents" to the Taxpayer ~ "So the man, named Michael Eugene Lamb, is going into prison at the age of 49, sitting there on a federal conviction, and coming out sometime when he is almost 51 years old. The federal system will charge the taxpayers for his 1.5 year confinement at a cost between $30,000.00 to $50,000.00 depending on the facility and not including any health issues of the confined."

Child Support Clerk Charged With Embezzlement: More Government Corruption ~ "Another County employee, this one in Lauderdale County, has been indicted by a grand jury on felony embezzlement charges for allegedly stealing more than $216,000.00 of program money, paid for by taxpayers, by writing unauthorized checks to herself from January 2002 through April of 2007. This employee was released on a $10,000.00 bond, which no doubt was probably a drop in the bucket considering she has already
been sitting on the $216,000.00 plus her lush salary.

Two Main Media Outlets Reprot More Thieving Title IV-D/CSE Employees ~ "Two separate reports have come out about a Maine Child Support Enforcement Worker (Title IV-D Employee) that has been stealing money orders from children the agency touts to protect. This most recent employee, who is now on administrative leave pending investigation, was reported as intercepting money orders and depositing them in her personal bank account."

Mounting Accountability Problems With Child Support Programs: Data Stolen ~ "Yuba County scrambled this week to contact 70,000 people whose names and personal information were on a laptop computer stolen from the new Child Support Services office in Linda. County officials said the stolen laptop contained Social Security numbers, birth dates, driver’s license numbers and other private information on 70,000 people+."

Identity
Theft: Opt Out of Family Court Services Before it Happens to YOU! ~ "...customers in at least three states have already experienced serious breaches in their personal information, including social security numbers being compromised and potentially handed over to hackers that might want to steal identities in the last few months
alone."

Implementing more data safeguards, limiting the size and scope of the the Federal and State Child Support Enforcement programs, tightening controls on confidential records, and more needs to be done to protect the taxpayer. We need to reign in the program and make sure it serves the purpose of real needy families rather than as a data harvesting tool for the federal and state governments on nearly every divorcing couple in the United States.

Freedom of Information, Open Records, and Government Transparency

laryholland@sbcglobal.net (Lary Holland) — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 15:31:26 +0000

I think that it was Thomas Jefferson that stated "All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent" and there is another side to that equation, that all tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience on the outside to not have the right information from the inside so they can speak up. In essence I believe that all aspects of government should be an open process, to the point that I have even taken to teaching others about the various formalities of records requests, sharing websites that open the doors of legislatures, and more. Myself and a few others have even joked about not acknowledging that we are citizens until we have had our first open records request granted, no matter how small it is. Why? Because an open records request is a chance to MAKE YOUR GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES do something directly for you. In a time when government is all about telling you what to do and when, so you remain to busy to see what is really going on... it is nice to know that we still have the power to require them to do something for us out of their day for the very pay that your local, state, federal, and property taxes contribute.

Here are some references that you should share with others:

Freedom of Information Help, includes open meetings, open records, and government transparency references: http://foiahelp.blogspot.com

State Surge, state by state legislation tracking. Monitor bills that are moving through your state legislative bodies. http://www.statesurge.com/legislation

State Surge, state by state legislator tracking. Monitor what each legislator is doing across the nation. http://www.statesurge.com/legislators

Halt.Org, Judicial Accountability group that monitors, reports, and discloses various issues to the public. http://www.halt.org

Follow the Money, group that is tracking the flow of money on various bills, initiatives, and government acts. http://www.followthemoney.org/

Government shouldn't run on autopilot.

When government thinks nobody is looking, that is when they move to restrict, encumber, and otherwise change the various rights and liberties that we are guaranteed. So be sure that you take some time out of your busy weeks to check in on your officials. Make a telephone call to your local representatives, your federal legislators, your governors, and your other "decision-makers." My getting in the loop you can help micromanage them, rather than waiting for them to micromanage YOU.

Popular Law Blog Divorce Without Dishonor Included in "Divorce for Dummies"

laryholland@sbcglobal.net (Lary Holland) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 12:15:23 +0000

Divorce Without Dishonor is an online publication emphasizing positive parenting, collaborative law strategies, and child-centered divorce practices through written articles, links, and resources that are presented by professionals for no cost to the public-at-large. STOP Fighting Over the Kids: Resolving Day-to-Day Custody Conflict in Divorce Situations is part of the Divorce Without Dishonor Series in print form.

The online publication and the print book help bring to light a better way to divorce, by demonstrating that divorce without dishonor is possible by listening, collaborating, and exiting a failing relationship with dignity and respect on behalf of children and communities. "Much of what is discussed in Divorce Without Dishonor and Stop Fighting Over the Kids is a consumer awareness piece that demonstrates there are viable alternatives to the adversarial and expensive divorce process," states Lary Holland.

In 2009, Divorce Without Dishonor was referenced on the online and print version of the immensely popular "Divorce for Dummies" book:

Divorce Without Dishonor
http://www.divorcewithoutdishonor.com
You can see from the quality of the postings here that the author, a divorce attorney who went through his own painful divorce, puts a lot of thought and effort into his blog. He not only provides compassionate, practical advice about the major aspects of divorce but writes about such topics as how to overcome the guilt you feel because of your divorce and how to help your child cope with the emotions he or she may feel because of your divorce, tips for moving out of your family's home when you separate, and why some divorced fathers become ghost dads after their divorce --- fathers who pay the child support, but drift out of their children's day to day lives. The blog also highlights interesting divorce-related Web sites to check out, studies to learn from and divorce books to read, and even features quotes that will make you laugh or inspire you as you go through your divorce. (Divorce for Dummies. NJ: Wiley Publishing, 2009. 334-335. Print.)

In essence, inclusion of Divorce Without Dishonor in the Divorce for Dummies print book delivers the information and resources to a larger audience and continues to influence parents and professionals on the issues of positive parenting, collaborative law strategies, and child-centered
divorce practices through written articles, links, and resources.

Child Centered Awareness Program Starting with two resources

laryholland@sbcglobal.net (Lary Holland) — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 15:56:48 +0000

Last night we released the first in a series of child-centered awareness programs that focus on divorce and trauma that children may experience inside and outside a divorce situation. Here is a copy of the first announcement that went to mediators, psychologists, and a select number of attorneys throughout the United States:

http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs070/1102459575011/archive/1102722545167.html

We found ourselves in a position to offer several professionals a free review copy of the book STOP Fighting Over the Kids: Resolving Day-to-Day Custody Conflict in Divorce Situations. The book sells for $29.99 through Amazon.Com. Within moments of many professionals walking into their office and checking their email our phones began to ring with people interested in using it as a resource in their own practices for parents, clients, and other colleagues.

Including the resource above we spread the awareness of the Coloring Away Pain series and have been receiving the feed back for them as well.

We interviewed Kimberly Pressley-Herric from Coloring Away Pain here.

The resource books will help parents work with their children through a variety of different trauma types in the form of coloring books to help a child express themselves on complex issues. Tornadoes, Earthquakes,Divorce, Parental Alienation, Floods, Fires, and more.

Here is a complete listing to share with colleagues and clients:
http://www.coloringawaypain.com/books.php

We are also sharing resource sheets from other counselors, psychologists, and professionals amongst their peers, if you have a resource sheet please email me at laryholland@sbcglobal.net so I can share them with others.

Pennsylvania Families and Childrens Equality Kicks off 1st Annual "FreedomBikeTrek4Families"

laryholland@sbcglobal.net (Lary Holland) — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 13:06:06 +0000

This event will be a part of a major event linking riders from 2 states in support of Federal and State Equal Parenting Rights.

Fairless Hills PA. July 5th, 2009: Pennsylvania Families and Childrens Equality are holding its first annual road bike trek to promote State House Bill 463 -- the Presumption of Joint Physical Custody in the State of Pennsylvania.

Bill Koellner of Levittown, Pa and Bill Gibbons of Fairless Hills, Pa will ride their bikes 310 miles from Independence Hall / Peoples Park thru Harrisburg down to DC in only 4 days.

Both riders will meet up with a group from Lansing Michigan on Thursday July 16^th on its last 80 mile trek down to DC – in conjunction with the annual “ParentStock” Festival held on the Lincoln Monument.

Monday Morning July 13^th at Peoples Park / Independence Hall – Phila. Pa. from 9-11am.

Speakers from PA FACE will discuss topics that relate to this underpublicized issue – Non Custodial Parents who want equal time with their children. House Bill 463 will bring both parents closer to their children.

The ride’s goal is for media attention for the bill on the floor, as well as to show that non-custodial parents (mostly fathers) want to be in their children’s lives – but the courts and laws separate them by broken / outdated legislation and Title 4D of the Social Security Act.

To get more information, please contact Bill Gibbons at the above cell phone or email address.

Both riders will be available for interviews and photo opportunities.

Low-cost divorce tips, legal self-help, and child custody resources have been added on a trial basis on the Get Your Justice Live book-store feature. Most of these are in the form of E-Books that are immediately available and accessible through various third-party authors and sites.

Below is a sample of the resources that are available from http://www.getyourjusticelive.com/book-store.

West Michigan Tea Party: A True Celebration of Independence Day

laryholland@sbcglobal.net (Lary Holland) — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 16:38:17 +0000

The West Michigan Tea Party on July 4, 2009 was a true celebration of what Independence Day is supposed to be about. People throughout the West Michigan corridor came to Riverside Park between 1pm and 3pm to state that we as Citizens have been Taxed Enough Already (TEA). Family Rights, Parental Rights, Tax Reformers, and other outspoken advocates from all walks of life came together and networked and listened to live entertainment, speakers, and each other.

One speech that I really enjoyed was Kristine C. from ICaucus.Org that spoke on the issues of Grassroots effectiveness and the fact that government has not been listening to our voices lately. A copy of this speech will be available in the coming days. For now, I leave you with a live version of God Bless America and come back for more information about this and other events that will help Americans stave off government intrusion in a variety of areas.

Get Your Justice Live Interview

Americans for Prosperity, Jack Hoogendyk & Scott Hagerstrom Join Get Your Justice Live

laryholland@sbcglobal.net (Lary Holland) — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 12:53:47 +0000

Americans for Prosperity, Jack Hoogendyk & Scott Hagerstrom Join Get Your Justice Live

Americans for Prosperity Michigan Chapter Advisory Board Member Jack Hoogendyk and AFP-Michigan State Director Scott Hagerstrom joined the Get Your Justice Live program Wednesday June 17, 2009 and they brought a multitude of fresh issues to the national audience. Americans for Prosperity (AFP) and Americans for Prosperity Foundation (AFP Foundation) are committed to educating citizens about economic policy
and mobilizing those citizens as advocates in the public policy process.

To listen to the 1 hour interview, check out Get Your Justice Live Radio and the episode over here.

Just some of the discussions included right to work legislation, parental rights issues, establishing a limited government, enforcing government transparency (see-through spending), cap and trade policies, center right meetings, and the notion of taxation by citation/government funding. The consensus seems to be that moving citizens into stronger and better informed advocacy positions will certainly advance a more predictable and transparent government, and our Americans for Prosperity guests certainly enumerated that vision.

Coping as an Alienated Parent

laryholland@sbcglobal.net (Lary Holland) — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:09:34 +0000

In April 2009, we interviewed on Get Your Justice Live, author Mike Jeffries on the issue of Parental Alienation and his new book titled A Family's Heartbreak. (Amazon).

Mike Jeffries appears again on WomensDivorce.Com with a new article, Coping as an alienated parent. In the article he speaks of moving on:

Move on emotionally. Don't concentrate on the relationship you once had with the alienated child. Get past the anger. Don't beat yourself up. Focus on the positive. Understand how you got here. Get some exercise. Do volunteer work. Write in a journal. And when all else fails, recite the serenity prayer:

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can not accept
and the wisdom to know the difference.

Good advice from someone that has been through parental alienation and documented the entire process on both sides of spectrum through a parents' perception and a clinical perception. If you haven't had a chance to catch up with the full article, visit WomansDivorce.Com here. It is important to understand the dynamics associated with children of divorce when there is ongoing conflict between parents. The adversarial process harms children in our family courts.

There are two resources that every divorcing parent should be required to read. The first resource of course is A Familys Heartbreak (Mike Jeffries and Dr. Joel Davies) and then the second resource is Stop Fighting Over the Kids (Attorney Mike Mastracci). These two books show you the aftermath of poor decision-making that feuding parents can make before, during, and after a divorce or child custody dispute.

My thanks to WomensDivorce.Com and to the professionals that are aware that reforms are necessary to protect children and parents from the harms of the adversarial family court process.
