GAL told me that I had to give her documents from our DVP against mom and documents from our custody hearing. She and CPS worker Kristi Hixenbaugh screen shotted them in front of me when they entered my house unannounced. I let them in because I didn't know my rights. I told them my lawyer had everything and they said my lawyer had nothing in this. On a prior occasion, Jessica Embrey told me we could not pursue custody because CPS "trumps the court". I asked three times if we could discuss things without my granddaughter present. I was ignored. We were not allowed to defend ourselves at the child abuse hearing or the motion to intervene. At the child abuse case we were subpoenaed but not called to stand. At the motion to intervene, lawyers, prosecutor, CPS and GAL met in judges chamber.

Judges Comments
At custody hearing judge said that prior domestic violence and assault cases were not relevant due to date. This included assault on elderly, stabbing of ex boyfriend, assault on father.
At motion to intervene hearing he said, mom was meeting her requirements for improvement period which is six months and ends in March. He said it was too early to intervene.
At custody hearing, he said we did not have evidence that mom was being unsafe or violent in front of children, even though we had IM from friend saying it took 10 minutes to wake mom and baby was asleep face down on floor. The same friend went back and got the baby because of fear for child. And our granddaughter was present when mom attacked great grandmother in her home prior to our incident.
