Most states now only have legal aid provided for prisoners. If you can get a legal aid attorney it could take months. They also do not work hard for you. They are not pd hourly like a private practice attorney, only salary. Thus, they cut every corner. They do not care if they win these cases.
I knew a guy who hired legal aid for a divorce case, attorney never showed for the scheduled hearing. Judge told the guy you get exactly what you pay for.( Pay nothing get nothing)😠
I would guess that the reason there isn't a huge public outcry is fear and/or intentional distractions.
I think people have been intentionally conditioned to fear those in power and to be caught up by all the distractions in our society ( entertainment, jobs, etc). People are afraid to stand up for their beliefs and fellow man, out of fear of being punished. I think especially when it comes to DCF, parents are terrified that if they stand against this unjust system, it will be used against them, to take their children and their rights away. A parents worst fear is losing their children.
Or for some, maybe they think these cases are outside the norm, and don't happen to regular people like them - the parents that lost custody of their children must have been doing something wrong to lose their kids.
But I would guess the main reason people aren't raising hell about these injustices is that they don't even know the extent of the problem. They probably don't know about the law Clinton enacted that enabled the kids for cash scam to become reality within DCF. Since it isn't shoved down people's throats in the msm, they don't understand that this is a massive cancer that has been inflicted on society.
While it's true there are distractions, as you put it, the main thing is that most people are simply unaware of the true activities of CPS, and even less aware of medical kidnapping unless it happens to them--in which case it is too late. The class system in the US prevents people form knowing what really happens to the poor--and the other people do not seem to care at beyond writing a check to an organization that exists only for it's won benefit rather than direct help.
On the other end of the scale, the elder are being abused terribly and their families have no say either. Most people do not realize when a person is admitted to a hospital, the hospital has the option to obtain guardianship and do what they want with them while feeding the family a bunch of lies. If a family member seeks guardianship, it can take years and cost tens of thousands.
This is happening in many other countries also, particularly in Australia.
I'm guessing my comment was too long so you didn't finish reading it - you just said basically the same thing I did lol. Except I didn't mention the elderly :)

How come there are no.lawyers for these families?. Where is federally funded Legal Services and locally funded Legal Aid?

Legal aid is joke. It is nothing but further abuse of the poor.

Honestly, I do not understand why there is not a huge outcry about CPS.
