OCS - Free Angelina Smith


My name is Angelina Alexis Smith. I was taken away from my birth mother when I was eight. They said she was an unfit mother but she was always real good to me and my brothers and sisters. OCS put me in a foster home but, because I tried to run away back to my mother, they put me in a mental hospital where they drugged me up and tied me down when I was bad- which was a lot! Then I went to a group home but they still kept me on all those drugs and, to keep me from running away, I was never allowed to go to school or anything outside. As I grew older, I knew that I would be there forever because nobody wants to adopt a bad teenager.

Then a miracle happened! They told me the Smiths wanted to adopt me!
So, at the age of 13, I went to live in an old,old house in the country with old, old Mommy and Daddy. I got my own room, lots and lots of pets, bicycles, CD players, nice clothes; stuff I never had before. The best part was I got to go to school where I had friends (even boyfriends) and got to go to football games and dances and all the good things. School was tough. I had to go from the third grade into the seventh grade and my reading sucked because all we did at the facility was watch television. But everybody helped me and I passed each year up to the ninth grade. Daddy says I'm a whiz at math.

Then, last September, I went to see my psychiatrist and said something wrong. The psychiatrist went and called OCS and told them that Daddy had abused me. They came and took me to a foster home. I tried to tell them that Daddy had never abused me but they wouldn't listen so I tried to run away back home. Then they put me back in the hospital where they drugged me up and tied me down again. The therapists kept trying to get me to say that Daddy had sexually abused me. They kept harassing me. So, after four months, I gave in and gave them a story. The next day, I called Mommy and Daddy to tell them what I had done and OCS found out and wouldn't let me talk to them or see them anymore. In December, I finally got a chance to go to court to tell my story. I raised my right hand and swore to tell the truth and I did! I told the judge it was all a lie that the therapist had harassed me into saying it. My Daddy never ever abused me!  But the judge said he didn't believe me; he believed the therapist.
So I was sent back to State custody until I am 18, I cannot ever see or talk to my parents, and the judge took away their parental rights. Even Mommys!
In February 2006, I ran away from the hospital and called Mommy and Daddy to come pick me up. They did and took me to the lawyer because the lawyer said he would try to get me in another facility where I could go to school and see my parents. The judge said no and the police came and handcuffed me and took me back to that horrible place and Mommy and Daddy got arrested for coming to get me and now they are going to jail too.

Testing to see if this shows up in my groups. It seems that only much older shares are appearing in the Host Shares box, not recent ones.
