NEW YORK CITY ACS DEFENSE LAWYER

http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/cliches-no-answers-zymere-perkins-death-acs-chief-article-1.2818710 The Mayor and ACS chief Gladys Carrion still have not provided any answers in the death of Zymere Perkins. The strategy they are following is to lay low and hope that other news stories overtake this one. This is a classic tactic of political leaders when a case is too explosive to address. The answers are there to be found. The Commissioner and the Mayor can call all of the ACS workers and supervisors to their office and ask for an explanation. This will not happen because the Mayor does not want to find the answer. It is easier to say that the Manhattan DA is investigating and we can't do anything.

EXCLUSIVE: ACS caseworker who had evidence of Zymere Perkins abuse closed his file because she got promoted Tweet email ACS caseworker Nitza Sutton closed the file on Zymere Perkins in April. Months later, he was found dead with bruises on his body. (YouTube) BY Ryan Sit Graham Rayman NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Updated: Tuesday, October 11, 2016, 12:28 AM The caseworker assigned to probe abuse allegations involving little Zymere Perkins closed the case because she was more interested in getting a promotion, sources told the Daily News. Child protective specialist Nitza Sutton, 48, closed Zymere’s case after just 12 days this past April — even though she took photos of injuries on the child’s body, according to child welfare sources who saw the boy’s file, several sources said. “She (Sutton) went to the home,” an Administration for Children’s Services source told The News. ...

One of the hardest things for parents to deal with if when NYPD and ACS do a joint investigation. This means that parents will be questioned by NYPD detective and ACS workers. Often, they collude to trick the parents into giving up their right to counsel or accusing the parents of different things, so as to keep them off balance. The most important thing any parent can do when facing this sort of investigation is to contact an attorney as soon as possible. Most parents are not equipped to deal with police officers and ACS workers. Do not speak to them without an attorney.

ACS Commissioner Gladys Carrion could use a civics lesson. Under fire over the death of 6-year-old Zymere Perkins, Carrion snapped at a Daily News photographer Tuesday — for taking a picture of her on a public sidewalk. “How many more photos are you gonna take?” Carrion said as she left her Bronx home and stepped into a black Toyota SUV. “This is invasion of privacy, if you ask me.” The embattled Administration for Children’s Services chief has taken heat for refusing to address the tragic case of Zymere, a Harlem boy who police say died Sept. 26 after being brutalized by his troubled mother’s hulking beau. ACS commissioner to address Zymere Perkins case Wednesday City officials say Carrion will finally discuss Zymere’s death — and the problems it exposed within ACS — at a Wednesday press conference. It’s likely to be a challenging experience for Carrion who needed a City Hall escort to shield her from a reporter and photographer on Monday. Carrion is...

We have touched on ACS and the Public Schools in New York City many times. In this post we will go a little deeper. To begin with, both are large multi-billion dollar agencies that are trusted with our children. Both are highly dysfunctional and both are often criticized in the media. Both have highly paid and ineffective administrators who are in charge of their own little fiefdoms and they protect it at all costs.  DOE has one huge advantage over ACS. As soon as school officials see a problem child they quickly call ACS on the parent. Why? It is very simple. By opening an ACS case against the parents , the school has gotten itself off of the hook. So instead of trying to teach children and providing the education that they have a right to, the DOE protects their turf and attacks the parent. Remember the most important thing to ACS and DOE is to keep the funding coming in and keep their inflated salaries and power. Many officials in the DOE and ACS would have a very difficult tim...

As we have discussed in the past, ACS receives a  good amount of cases from the New York City Public Schools. The bureaucracy in these schools is such that as soon as they see an opportunity to contact ACS, they do. This protects them from further liability by passing the buck to another incompetent state agency. THE NYC DOE is a large dysfunctional system focused on protecting its funding and turf. Parents must be aware of this alliance between the ACS workers and the administrators. They routinely join forces to attack parents and force ACS into a parent's life. Be aware of them. FIGHTACS.COM
