Yesterday, February 27, 2009, the court terminated the parental rights of the Stuth's daughter. This is a necessary step in order for the Stuths to adopt their sweet little granddaughter who had been in a miserable "foster-adopt" home for 17 months of neglect.
The attorney general's office has had a total change of attitude. Remember, these are the same people who repeatedly argued before the judge that the Stuth's were unqualified. These are the same people who withheld from the judge that there was an aunt and uncle who had passed an in home study and were desperate to keep their niece in the family. This is the same arm of Washington State government that failed to mention to Judge Kessler that the Stuth's granddaughter had been removed from the foster woman for cause!!!! And then argued... knowing the removal had occurred...that the three year old STILL be placed with the evil foster woman!
Thankfully, when Judge Kessler found out the foster woman had lost the two toddlers in her care he was equally angry about the deciet!
"But...no matter." Right? The state vilifies a very decent Enumclaw Plateau couple...causes them to go through hell as they watch little "Lisa" deteriorate before their eyes...costs them tens of thousands of dollars...and almost succeeds in stealing their grandchild. "By gones be by gones."
"By gones be by gones?" That is what the AG's office wants. The AGs will make nice with the press and have a conscience as long as KING5 and Susannah Frame are watching.
And, they are watching.
What about all the other families that the state vilifies...lies about...and successfully steals their children as they tried so hard to do with the Stuths?
I am willing to say this...knowing that Mr. Wilson, a former AG employee, is interviewing these same AG's involved with the Stuth case. Yes...the same honest people who withheld information and bore false witness before a judge will be talking about me! Mr. Wilson...I don't lie. And, certainly I have never lied before a judge.

Ethics Board Poised To Quash Ability Of 147 Legislators To Report CPS Wrongdoings
Please note if you have linked here from the TNT that Tacoma News Tribune reporter, Joseph Turner, is doing another gratuitous bashing of me and now my blog. This blog is a place for statements by the author, comments on my own family, and adventures. It is beyond me why a reporter would criticize my willingness to be open. Please see: pamroachreport.blogspot.com
Mr. Turner is a known Pam Roach detractor. The story here is that I challenged the system and won. Now, some want to punish me for that. They won't be able to do that. If Mr. Turner had any integrity he would investigate CPS and help straighten a system. The TNT is the best paper in the state. It does report about CPS abuse. Mr. Turner, why don't you spend your time trying to expose corruption rather than crucify someone who is? I have pledged to open government, something I think a good reporter would praise. Instead you want to intimidate. You are just part of the pack Joe.
One hundred and forty-seven legislators will be affected by the decision of the Senate Ethics Board. Each of us are asked from time to time for help from our constituency. Board decisions affect all of us. Can you imagine a board like this shutting down legislative review with a stroke of the pen...without a trial...hearing...or word from the body???
Will the entire legislative branch have to prove motives, submit everything in writing, be kept from exposing the lies and deceit that exists in the unrestrained areas of government?
When the "proved to be troubled" foster woman in the Stuth case (let's not forget here that this woman was touted by CPS as just being wonderful...they were wrong...I was right) filed an ethics complaint against me, she was coached to do so.
Who coached her? Someone or some entity that knew an ethics board even existed. And, someone who knew I was even writing a blog. I am guessing either a CPS worker or the evil CASA who railed against me in court when I showed an interest in the Stuth case and then quickly bowed out as soon as the press entered the picture. (He figured he could hoodwink judges but not me and Susannah Frame together.)
(Remember PRR readers...the CASA was an out-of-state attorney who is not a member of the WA bar. He was up here volunteering. He made his fortune in CA moving children in Marin County. I think he must have come up here to bad-mouth the Stuths, lie to them saying a judge had ordered them not to see their granddaughter, and promote a woman with "social" problems so bad that the children were removed. (He wanted to find a family just like the Stuths...troubled teen mother, not wealthy, healthy child around 3 years of age....)
I believe in open government. I believe in helping children and families.
More later on this setup to remove legislators from CPS oversight.

Pam Roach Plan Would Save Lives...Place Released Sex Offenders In Industrial Areas
Sex offenders eventually get out of prison. When they do...they should not go to neighborhoods or be vagrants lurking under bridges.
Please cut and paste to see Pam Roach and others in the KING 5 news coverage prompted by the murder of a 13 year old Vancouver girl walking home through a field.

(This is the correct link. Please copy and paste.)
We need better GPS monitoring. Parents need to be ever vigilant. Sex predators should be kept in prison as long as possible. When they are released they should go to industrial areas, not neighborhoods!
I have been pushing this idea for a couple of years now. Government already owns the buildings. They can, as has been done under my suggestion in King County, convert industrial property to sex predator housing and relocate government workers to other offices.

"Slumdog Millionaire"...Pam Survives The Opening Scene
"Slumdog" resonates because it is real. It is happening..right now...in many countries around the world...not the victory of the game show...the storyline of poverty in a country too poor to contain evil.
I liked it because it portrayed an image of India that for the most part...you expect. But you don't have the imagination to come up with the details.
This movie casts children, but it is not a child's movie. It is rated "R" for violence and sexual content. The opening scene is intense and involves mutilation of innocent children. You don't want to see this part because it is something that you know exists.
Those who see it will have a new depth in understanding the third world, and hopefully, a greater gratitude for American life.
The storyline of "poor guy triumphs" is lost for me. I did not focus on the fantasy as the reality was too overwhelming.
PLEASE POST YOUR REVIEWS

King County Assessor's Actions Add Up To Vehicular Assault...Why Was The Press 30 Days Late In Reporting It?
Tonight's news reported Russell "Scott" Noble on January 19th was driving drunk, southbound in a northbound lane. At a high rate of speed he went headlight to headlight with a car occupied by two individuals. All three spent several weeks in the hospital.
QUESTION?...Why did it take one month to report it? Why did the Seattle press hold this information? They haunt the halls of King County government and...the press routinely goes over traffic accident reports. There is no way they did not see this!
This "accident" (drunk crash) held up four lanes of traffic at 3 AM.
Coddling a drunk Democrat two weeks before a countywide election?
Why didn't the State Patrol let us know?
It ranks up there with the 14 year-old who weighted 47 pounds after being held captive by her sicko parents....it was two months before it was reported.
Let's bet he does what former State Supreme Court Justice Bobbe Bridge did when caught drunk driving. He will not resign. He will fill out his term. Let's hope it is from a jail cell!

President Obama Said Something I Have Never Heard A Democrat Say
For years I have been saying it.
Now that I am on the Senate Education Committee I have purposefully mentioned it many times publicly.
Sometimes educators and liberals will list all the important things that contribute to a child's education but they NEVER say what President Obama did in tonight's Joint Session of Congress.
"RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR CHILDREN'S EDUCATION MUST BEGIN AT HOME."
I have never heard a Democrat say this! This was the single most important message of the night.

Ethics Board's Mike O'Connell Reveals His Attitude And Just Maybe His Bias
This blog contains the email exchange between O'Connell and myself. I was counseled to give a firm response to his outrageously revealing and angry email to me.
Let's, however, know that this man probably recommended an expansion of the unfit foster mother's complaint against me and this blog, and then hired an investigator without telling me he was moving forward. He said he would inform me of developments. (Let's go hunt while she continues to write!)He also said he would call to set up an interview which he never did. No one has.
I would not be printing this email exchange but for two reasons. First, someone out there decided to write me saying what a nice guy Mike O'Connell is. Fine. This is not about nice. But let the email speak for itself. Secondly, I think witch hunts should be public.
Remember the story line. The foster mother in the Stuth case filed an ethics complaint against me demanding that this blog (this bit of free speech) should be shut down. Remember that I never used the names in the case. Remember that she is the one with the restraining order out against the former lover with a gun and that she had the Stuth grandchild removed from her (for cause) at the very time the state continued to argue for termination and placement with this woman! Who and what should be investigated here????!!!! (And yes, the judge agreed with me.)
Mr. Mike O'Connell sent me a cover letter with the complaint. I called him. He used to be the Senate Republican counsel many years ago and I have regarded him as at least not an enemy. I have not had much occasion to communicate with him over the last 10 years. He is employed at the will of the Democrat Senate.
I told him I thought this complaint was ridiculous. That I had the constitutional right to have a blog just like anyone else. And, that though I could if I had chosen to do so...I used no names. And, I stated that I have free speech rights. And, that as a Senator I have the right and responsibility to demand that state government follow the law by placing children with qualified relatives. The foster woman's name had even been used in open court. His letter of notification clearly released her information and he said the complaint could be public (including her name). He told me that he didn't see anything wrong, but that he would let me know if it was otherwise.
He did not. He never notified me that the purvue of the complaint had been expanded. Why? Because the longer she blogs the greater the chance of finding something we can pin on her!
I called him before Christmas telling him I wanted to know what was happening. As if as a casual aside, O'Connell informed me that the Ethics Board was going to "expand the nature of the foster woman's complaint" and go interviewing looking for something (anything) I might have done wrong. I had to call him to be informed of this new and unusual development.
Really? Not enough to do?
As you know, I am just finishing up, Twilight, a book for teens and now a popular movie that I am reading along with my granddaughter. We learn there that the werewolves do not like light! They prefer the darkness.

Senator:
You have my sincere apology if my response seems angry and irrational because surely you know me better than that. I am neither. And, it seems, I was mistaken about your intentions regarding a meeting with Ken Wilson. I simply wanted to convey to you that you have an opportunity, if you choose, to be part of the preliminary investigation.
No message to the Board has been sent on this matter. Of course you may have an attorney or anyone else you may select to be present at the interview.
Would you prefer to give me some dates and times when you would be available or should I start with his schedule and provide some options for you to consider? Whichever you prefer.
Best Regards,
Mike

Mike,
Please indicate in my letter where I refused to be interviewed. Please indicate where I refused to participate. Please indicate when or what time I have refused an interview from Mr. Wilson. When has a request ever been put forward to me for an interview?
You have indicated to me that you have hired an investigator. That takes money. Taxpayer money. We are in a recession. The state is facing a multi-billion dollar deficit. I have offered you an opportunity to read the King County Superior Court judge's ruling in this matter. The judge is not a party. However, he has rendered that ruling. That ruling supports my good work in this matter and clearly states the illegal actions and harm perpetrated on my constituents by DSHS.
Your response to my initial letter seems to be angry and irrational. I would ask that you reflect upon your words and your tone. I demand that you not relay erroneous or inaccurate information to the board. If you persist on the position you have stated in this letter I will have to seek legal assistance to defend my rights. I look forward to a more rational and well thought response from you in the future. Pam Roach

As you identified in one of our phone messages, one of the issues raised in the complaint is breach of confidentiality. This allegation involves your relationship with DSHS personnel and perhaps others. The other allegation, which we also discussed, was whether you wrongfully used you position or public resources – this could also involve your relationship with DSHS personnel and perhaps others. As you say, there may be nothing here in the end and I appreciate that it can be frustrating to be the subject of a complaint but a “witch hunt” seems a curious descriptor of a process established in law. Before a case may be dismissed the matter must be investigated. If this were not the fact then all that quasi-judicial boards would have to do would be to gather a statement from the respondent and dismiss the case or, in the alternative, gather a statement from the complainant and proceed to a hearing. Granted, a much simpler process.
Earlier you seemed eager to be interviewed – in fact, you insisted upon it and made me promise it would happen. You complained that in the past and on more than one occasion you have been refused the opportunity to tell your story. An interview would have given you an opportunity to help Mr. Wilson put his report together, with everyone’s perspectives included, before being considered by the Board. You have chosen not to participate and since there are no compulsory orders in effect at this time it is certainly your right to refuse.
I will inform Mr. Wilson and the Board that you have declined . As I mentioned earlier the Board meets on February 19 and the progress of the investigation will be a subject for a non-public, executive session. At some point the Board will determine it has enough information from the investigation to answer the question of whether or not there is reasonable cause to believe the Act has been violated. The Board will issue a public order on the question of reasonable cause, either dismis sing the case for lack of reasonable cause or finding reasonable cause and ordering a public hearing.
Best Regards,
Mike
