How child welfare works in Florida

With the criminal investigation into Eckerd Connects in the Tampa Bay area, here's how child abuse cases work in Florida.

I can tell you first hand how corrupt the child welfare system works. My family deals with a situation whereas a family member hooked up with some dirtbag and had (5) children by him. Turned out he had a past conviction of being a pedophile and domestic abuse. Our family member ended up in a shelter to avoid the abuse. As her mother rented a house (out of state) to move her and the kids in, Protective Service snatched up the kids and placed them in Foster Care with the "Aunt" of the dirtbag baby daddy. Years of trying to get custody all the while the kids ate fast food, slept on the floor and was restricted from any contact from our family, WHY???? The kids also lived with a mentally challenged cousin (of course the kids live amongst multiple people in the house) who pointed a gun at my family member (the kids grandmother) when she went to the house to see her grandkids. Later on, find out the baby daddy is back in jail for murder. You can only imagine the filth these poor kids lived in. The aunt of where these children are fostered in receives lots of $$$$ from the government. Not one lawyer or any means of legal action to save these children have been offered. The ENTIRE state is involved in some way to make $$$. Hush, hush tactics being dealt there. I must add, my family have the means and morals to raise these children in a proper, safe and loved environment. We are white and the baby daddy is black and his entire family is unfit, dirty and crooked. But ok Florida, you know what you are doing, right? Disgusting and will never step foot in that corrupt state, ever!
