Amber Marie Keast, Granddaughter

Amber was always a happy and well behaved young lady anytime we were around her and especially when she was in our care.

The children were removed from our care based on lies and fraud, June 25, 2005. This picture was taken July 1, 2005. Amber is on the left side of this picture. This day I went to my son's home to see Alyssa and Amber before they went to live with a stranger. When the door was opened Alyssa saw me and said, "Grandpa I want to come back home with you." Amber said, "Me too."

I received this picture from my daughter June 28, 2006. When Erica gave me this picture she told me that Alyssa snuck some pictures home with her when she was returned in December 2005. Erica told me that Lacy Gonzales-Borstler (foster worker) called her and wanted the pictures back. Amber is the one on the right. Does this picture look like things have been done in her best interest?

Amber didn't have any emotional or behavioral concerns while in our care.

Nicole called these children "wild animals" when they were placed in her care.

Now I get to tell you what Newaygo County Child Protection Services (CPS) did to this beautiful young lady. She was emotionally abused by this agency that is suppose to be the protectors of children.

Amber has been diagnosed with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder. She currently takes Risperdal.

Wouldn't you consider what was done to Amber, child abuse? This was done as they say in her "best interest." When is it ever in a child's "best interest" to be needlessly emotionally abused and then drugged?
