May 2002		Susan Detlefsen of Portland, Oregon Susan suffered retaliation from SOSCF for exposing their abusive, derelict handling of her case. In June her daughter was unceremoniously sent home. Susan continues her fight to end SOSCF abuse and expose child welfare fraud in Oregon.
May 2002		Taylor McLaren of Astoria, Oregon
		Taylor and her three children are currently living an underground existence, because of a malicious and fraudulent case built against the mother by SOSCF. Oregon Family Rights is seeking help in overturning the court order that granted custody to the state.
January 2002		Ashley Pond of Oregon City Around the same time the state was harrassing parents like Susan Detlefsen and Taylor McLaren on fabricated abuse charges, the two kids who desperately need protection, Ashley Pond and Miranda Gaddis, were left to be murdered, even after numerous cries for help to SOSCF. Since the sexual abuse Ashley was being subject to was not by a custodial parent, ie mother or father, the state had no interest in taking her into custody. There is generous federal money for taking children away from their parents on a dependency order, but Ashley was not the dependent of Ward Weaver. The two state workers who failed to protect these two were fired, and then quietly rehired later. Lori Pond recently filed a law suit against SOSCF for failing to protect Ashely. In predictable SOSCF fashion, they have retaliated by taking Lori Pond's other three children. Message to Lori Pond
