We went to court early that day and explained to the judge’s secretary that we need a court appointed attorney. She said that when we come in for the hearing let the judge know and he will appoint us a lawyer and give us a new hearing date. This did not happen. We went to the hearing and told the judge we needed a court appointed attorney. During this hearing we were supposed to have the right to question CPS and testify on our own behalf. Not only would the judge not allow us to question anybody he wouldn’t allow us to say anything on our own behalf. The judge did appoint an attorney for us but we coudn’t meet with her until the next day. Even though there wasn’t one single piece of evidence against us the judge allowed CPS to keep all 3 of our kids because Jenice told him the kids were in immediate danger because of Michael Snowden, even though he was cleared of all allegations two months later.
