Jaws of Justice Radio
It is the intention of Jaws of Justice Radio to investigate how to achieve justice in America, this includes issues of economic injustice, political injustice and the criminal justice system. We want to put a human face on those caught in the grasp of injustice and those that are part of an unjust system. We strive to dispel the misconceptions created by the news and entertainment industry, politicians and our educational system.
Personal Stories and Your Calls About DFS, Foster Care and The Courts
We have personal accounts from couple of Fathers telling their stories of losing their children, not to the mothers, but to the state. Do you have a story to tell? Is the Division of Family Services as capricious as some say? Call in with your story good or bad at 816-931-5534.
Our attempts to get a Family Law Lawyer or someone in the family services community to come on to tell what the criteria is for determining custody failed. We will continue to work on bringing you an explanation as to how decisions are made and what you as a parent need to know about the procedures of DFS and the court in future broadcasts.
