[quote=Anonymous]CPS has the authority to investigate child abuse claims. That they requested the Police get involved suggests they were trying to pin felony child abuse on you and ultimately terminate your parental rights. If the police believed you committed a crime they should have obtained an arrest or search warrant before coming to your door to investigate this crime. The Fourth Amendment gives everyone the right to privacy in their own homes. Police only have the authority invade your privacy with that warrant, or unless you let them into you home "to see that your family is just fine" Next time don't open the door when you hear the police identify themselves. Ask the police if they have a search warrant or arrest warrant for the child abuse crime they are attempting to pin on you. If they don't have a warrant, then tell them to come back when they do. And tell them you prefer to speak with them when your minor children are not around. Record the entire interaction via audio or video. Know that what has happened to you happens to many people every day. That is, every day Police erroneously contact the wrong person they are attempting to find. Police sometimes even kill the wrong people, and Police usually have no consequences for these errors as they claim immunity. Know that many people also get their parental rights terminated too here in the DC MD VA areas. What you think is insignificant slaps or emotional abuse, a Judge may think it's a good reason for you to lose your parenting duties. Search "Social Services" at the VA & MD Links below and read the stories of parents that got their parental rights terminated and had to beg the court of appeals reinstated those rights. http://www.courts.state.va.us/wpcap.htm https://mdcourts.gov/opinions/opinions [/quote]
