MAN POSING AS A CPS WORKER ALLEGEDLY TRIED TO TAKE 3 CHILDREN FROM TEXAS HOME
A man was arrested on Saturday, July 14, after allegedly breaking into a Liberty County home under the false pretense that he worked for Child Protective Services and trying to take three children who lived there.
According to ABC 13, Jimmy Dwayne Lackey, 37, is accused of entering the home and charging after an adult male who was also living there. Lackey allegedly planned on killing the man before kidnapping the children.
The four victims hid inside a bedroom and the male victim grabbed a gun and fired four shots into the ground. According to the Montgomery County Police Reporter, they were then able to get to a neighbor's home to call 911.
When deputies arrived on the scene, Lackey allegedly made several attempts to resist and evade arrest before he was finally apprehended and arrested by deputies.
According to the police report, Lackey faces several felony charges including burglary of a habitation with intent to commit another felony, impersonating a public servant, possession of a controlled substance, and resisting arrest.
Lackey is being held at the Liberty County Jail on $75,000 bond.

MOM SAYS FAKE CPS WORKER TRIED TO TAKE AWAY HER BABY
When Ashley Bradley put her son down for a nap on Wednesday, she wasn't expecting any visitors, so the New York mom was surprised to find a woman knocking at her door.
The stranger said she was with Delaware County Child Protective Services and was there to remove her 9-month-old, Ja'vonni, from Bradley's care. Yes, the stranger knew her baby's name!
But then after she had a second to process, Bradley felt that something was off. The person from "CPS" didn't have a state-issued badge, Ja'vonni's name was spelled wrong on the folder she was holding, and Delaware County CPS was the wrong county. Plus, the mom didn't have any CPS cases and she hasn't done anything that would require a visit from government agency staff.
So, Bradley trusted her mom gut and asked the woman for proof.
The fake CPS worker immediately "got an attitude and stated, 'I just told you who I am,'" Bradley wrote. "I then told her I was going to call the police and went to get my phone. She was standing on my porch, as I would not let her into my home. When I walked back out into my living room from getting my phone, she was walking very fast around the corner of my house."
The mom immediately went to go check on her son and contacted the police.
The officer who arrived "said people come from different countries and states, kidnap kids and traffic them; it does not matter what the age," she wrote. On Love What Matters, Bradley added that police are still investigating and she's waiting on them to check video surveillance to see if the unknown woman was caught on video.
Parents Have Enough To Worry About With The Real CPS Workers. Thank God THAT COP IS SO WOKE. Please Read Rest of Story.

Still stealing money from secure bank accounts, still stealing children. This is going to get worse before it gets better. Liberty county still alcohol free? That might be a good thing. I doubt he would get better treatment on the Conroe side. In the old days, he would not make it to the next jail meal. What am I talking about is he would be buried by the menfolk before he got that far.

I think those days will be coming back once the Average Joe wakes up. If it starts happening, this will be cut down quick. They are asking for it.

I am not so sure those days are entirely gone there. I grew up in CutnShoot, Texas when I was young. That is right on the border of those two counties. The reason for the name was because Liberty was dry. It was nothing but rednecks, nice junkyards, and a few bars. We were in the dirt roads out back. If a strange relative came in to visit, there was a landline system that would telegraph who came up the road, and someone would tell you before they got there. Other than that, everybody pretty much minded their own business.

Sounds pretty good to me. Easy to keep track and watch for strangers. Now with both parents working nobody around to mind the kids in the hoods. Sad.

The kids were armed too. That helps. I got my first 410 when I was 8. Already had several knives and completed my second homemade bow and arrow before that. I did not realize the Bronfmans was old news. Just got back and cooking. Sorry.

No not old news. Just arrested. I am waiting for more news to hit. There is a new thread on it. The problem is that children are given guns or they are in the home without teaching them respect for the firearm. Just like with driving. They are both weapons.

Yeah, city kids and trailer trash. We had them back then. Ain't nothing changed. It was 1977 when I said Mama, why cant I hang out with such and such, she said their parents do the cocaine. That is just the facts in life that young people need to know.

Parents are so busy now that they don't have time or just don't care. Must take an interest and in their friends. Very important to make the kids feel you care.
