Written by On July 10th 2015, Jody Herring’s 9-year-old daughter was taken from her by Vermont’s Department of Children and Families. It starts off a common enough story, with few details made public. Whether your particular authoritarian regime calls it DCF, or Child Protective Services, or some other Orwellian misdirection, governments throughout the world run these child trafficking schemes in the name of protecting children. So for one woman to lose one child on some day, is far from unusual.
Vermont, the leftist utopia that burdened America with the likes of Bernie Sanders, may unsurprisingly have it worse than some places though. Ever since the deaths of two children under DCF supervision, there have been changes in DCF policy. “Our goal is not reunification” said DCF Commissioner Dave Yacovone of reuniting children with their parents. The department instead insists it will do whatever is, in their infinite wisdom, in the best interests of the child. Perhaps that has something to do with the recent increase of children in Vermont DCF custody.
That may or may not have been what made Jody Herring so upset by the kidnapping of her daughter by the department, that she decided an assassination was order.
