I received this picture from my daughter Erica June 28, 2006. Erica told me Alyssa snuck these home with her when they were returned on December 9, 2005. Erica also told me that Lacey (CPS) had called her and wanted these pictures returned. I can see why, Alyssa looks despondent and Amber doesn't look happy one bit. I wouldn't be either after being emotionally abused by these people. Evidently Lacy thought this picture no longer existed because Erica told her they were thrown away. Were some surprised when I published this picture on the original webpage I made?
During testimony on August 3, 2007 Nicole stated that this pictures was taken and put into an album and sent home with the girls. You can decide what to believe. I believe my daughter on this one. Lacey wanted these back because of what these abused young ladies look like.
