Q: How can I get placement of my child who is placed with her father,who's a registered sex offender?
I missed a few custody court dates sadly, and the judge granted him placement. He just got out of prison after 3 yrs, for beating me.. My daughter is 3 and has never even met him until Sept 11th when she was taken from the only family and home she knows.. I have seen her once, (sept25th) and rarely get to talk to her. We have 50/50 joint custody. How is this right? And what can I do? I've reached out to cps, the judge, the sheriff Department for welfare checks.. He took her out of state with out telling me, and is not even residing at the address on file with her. I am worried for my child's safety.
