This sort of thing is a lot more common than most of you would suspect. Some of the pro bono work I do involves representing kids in deprived proceedings where their parents have done something to get the children placed into the Department of Human Services system. One of the toughest dockets I do is the show-cause docket where after being taken into custody, the case worker, state's attorney and myself present an administrative Judge with the evidence which led to the placing of the children in the Department's custody. We get to go through every single case from the previous day. Some of the stuff is really heartbreaking.
