Hey there, thanks for joining us again for the wrap up of this discussion. So far we’ve looked at a couple of cases here in Michigan where innocent parents were falsely accused of child abuse by the Child Protection Team at Mott’s Children’s Hospital, led by Dr. Bethany Mohr. Thankfully, in both cases we looked…
If you’re just stumbling across this article, then chances are you’re looking for information about Child Abuse Pediatricians and the unchecked power they hold over families in Michigan.

As we mentioned in the previous article, we’re not trying to claim that it never happens, or that it isn’t a tragedy when it does. What we…
There is hardly a month that goes by in Michigan, that there isn’t a terrible child abuse case making the rounds in the news. Some of them are legitimate – those children really were harmed and the state is right to step in and protect them. Some of them are bogus – those kids are…
