To whom it may concern,

I request the FBI initiate an investigation regarding the violation of the civil rights of my children
and myself by the State of Colorado, of many years duration; obstruction of justice and
collusion/conspiracy to obstruct justice; witness tampering; witness intimidation;
collusion/conspiracy to commit witness tampering; falsification of records, alteration of records
by Colorado State agency; the refusal of State agencies to acknowledge and intervene to stop the
emotional/psychological abuse of my children; failure of Colorado State agencies and licensed
mental health practitioners to report child abuse. The above actions involve the State of
Colorado, Court-appointed individuals, and private individuals.
Although my focus here regards events in Colorado, this case spans three states (MI, AK, CO)
beginning in 2001. Colorado begins in June 2003. I have a very large amount of documentation,
as well as video interviews, which provides sufficient evidence to prove these.
I believe the information also demonstrates actions against my children and me as a hate crime.
Attached is an expert report, written by R. Christopher Barden Ph.D, J.D., who was the
prosecutions expert witness for the State of Colorado in the case of a girls death due to
inappropriate therapy.
Within his report on my case he writes I suggest that the FBI be contacted to investigate what
may well turn out to be a case of corruption (e.g. obstruction of justice) in the local abuse
investigation system.
Also attached is an evaluation report done as part of Colorados investigation of me.
I request to speak with and present information to the FBI. I may be contacted at any time.
Sincerely,

Kevin P. Maguire D.O.

My family and I (wife-Lisa, Elizabeth-4, Catherine-2 , Kyle-6 mos) moved from Anchorage,
Alaska to Huntington Woods, Michigan, so I could start a radiology residency program, and
moved into a house in October 2000. Lisa had many relatives in the area, and our family had
frequent contact with them. In March 2001, following a party we had for some other doctors
were I worked, my daughter Elizabeth said that Allie (eight-year-old boy at the party) had
touched her. Over the course of the following week, she repeatedly named an adult male cousin
of Lisa's (Mr. Denise Shawn Cotter) , and gave details of being touched by this man at the
home of Lisa's aunt. We called the police, and filed a police report on March 16, 2001( ).
Elizabeth underwent a forensic interview on March 22 (__no video or audio recorded). She
named "Mr. Denise" and Allie. On March 23, the police came to our house and took items from
the girls bedroom and the crime lab van also came to do an evaluation. Elizabeth directly told
the police Lieut. that the man had "a tattoo where he pees" (see ). On March 26, Elizabeth began
seeing the social worker/therapist recommended by the prosecutor.
On April 6, 2001. Lisa called the police to the house, and lied to them that the therapist had
suggested questioning our daughter Elizabeth at home. During this "questioning" Lisa told the
police that Elizabeth said Kevin and Allie touched her. The police contacted social services,
who came to the house on April 11 (my son's first birthday). When I got home, Lisa told me that
social services said I had to leave the house or they would take our kids away. The following
day, Lisa secretly withdrew $9,914.12 cash from our joint account(below IRS "radar"). I came
home every night, we had dinner with the kids, put them to bed, and talked. I went to the hotel
to sleep. Weekends we did things all together. I was totally in the dark that Lisa had been
making false allegations against me, and attributing these to Elizabeth and Catherine. When I
asked social services why this was taking so long, told me they were just investigating all
allegations.
On May 1, 2001 Lisa secretly withdrew $9,999.00 and $9,950.00 cash, and $5,075.00 in
Travelers checks. She took the kids to a hotel, and told me they were afraid of the house.
On May 3, 2001 Lisa absconded with our kids to Alaska, which I only discovered when I called
that night and she said she was already on the plane.
On May 9, 2001 Michigan social services closed the case, and informed Lisa in Alaska. They
didnt inform me.

Michigan expanded:
I accepted a radiology residency and we moved our family (me, my wife Lisa, Elisabeth 4,
Catherine 2 , Kyle 6 mo.) from Anchorage, Alaska to Huntington Woods, Michigan, and
settled into our house in Oct. 2000. We often visited with Lisas relatives (she was born in

Michigan). On March 10, 2001 after a party for some hospital friends, Elisabeth (4 ) said that
the 8 y/o boy (Allie) at our house that night had touched her at the party. Over the next few days
she said that it was a man she called Mr. Denise (SC - a cousin of Lisas). We contacted police
and filed a report. On March 22, 2001 an interview was done by a social worker at Care House
(no video or audio recorded) in which Elisabeth named him again, and that he touched her at our
house. She also mentioned Allie the boy from the party at our house. It was decided that
because Elisabeth did not mention the relatives house, only ours, that the case would be
transferred from Farmington Hills (where the report was filed) to our local police dept.
(Huntington Woods). The following day (March 23) the police came to our house and took items
from the girls bedroom for crime lab evaluation. Elisabeth told a police Lt. that the man had a
tattoo where he pees (see police note March 23 - ) (see SC felony arrest record noting a tattoo
right hip - ). Our daughters underwent a forensic physical exam, no evidence of abuse seen.
Lisa took notes with our kids while I was at work. Shortly, our younger daughter Catherine (34
months) chimed in with her sister, adding various names unknown to us as well as saying that the
young (2-4 y/o) children of Lisas relatives had also touched her. We took Elisabeth to the social
worker/therapist recommended by the prosecutor.
On Mar 27, 2001, just 5 days after Elisabeths interview, a staff member at Care House told the
investigating officer that Elisabeth would undergo intensive counseling in order to see if she
will name the person responsible for the assault", and that it "might be as much as six months or
more before Elizabeth is ready to be re-interviewed." She told the investigating officer that the
case was basically on hold until then. Remarkably, he investigating officer wrote that It is
recommended that no suspects be interviewed until one is actually named by the young victim.
(See police note March 27, 2001)

On April 6, 2001 (Fri)

When I got home from work our kids were not there. Lisa told me
that the therapist had recommended that Lisa question Elizabeth at home, by asking her who she
did not want to come to Kyles birthday party (therapist notes confirm this to be a lie) (See police
note April 6, 2001) Lisa told me Elisabeth said Kevin, then Allie (boy at our party) She
told me the therapist had recommended that Lisa take Elisabeth to her cousins house that night,
since sometimes kids will name someone close to them as a way to test the water and then
make a disclosure. Lisa also told me the therapist recommended I take a lie detector. I thought
this was strange but I trusted my wife, so I called HWPD and spoke to Lt. Armold, who said they
didnt do them, and to call the State Police. I called them and was told it needed to be scheduled.
April 11, 2001
Social services came to the house while I was at work. Lisa told
her things are fine, she is worried about the kids. Social worker made false comments in her
notes that my daughters made disclosures to the therapist. (Investigation by the State of
Michigan proved that the therapist never made any such claims - ) In fact, the only allegations
ever made, or claimed to have been heard from my daughters, was from Lisa.
When I got home Lisa told me that the social worker said I had to leave the house because of
what Elisabeth said on Friday (6th), or they would take the kids. We finished dinner, sang happy
birthday to Kyle (he is 1) put our kids to bed, talked for a while, and I went to a hotel.

April 12, 2001

The very next day, Lisa secretly began the first of 3 withdrawals from our
account, in amounts of @ $9,999.00. (Below IRS radar of $10,000)

I came home each night, we had dinner, played with our kids, put them to bed, talk, and I went to
the hotel to sleep.
April 15, 2001

Easter Sunday. We go to Mass, then Sunday Bruch at a local hotel.

April 16, 2001

Lisa converted the first $9,914.12 withdrawn money into Western Union
checks of $1,000.00, and deposited them in a Comerica bank account
(unknown owner).

April 25, 2001

Lisa secretly bought plane tickets to Alaska for herself and our kids.

May 1, 2001
Lisa took our kids to a hotel. Told me our kids were afraid of the house.
Also, Lisa made 3 more secret withdrawals from our account $9,999.00 and $ 9,950.00 cash, and
$5,075.00 in Travelers checks.
May 3, 2001
Lisa absconded with our kids to Alaska. I didnt find out until I called that
night and she was already on the plane. She told me not to follow her or Id be sorry.
May 9, 2001

Unknown to me, case is closed in Michigan; Lisa is informed but I am not.

My inquiries to social services about the investigation were met with non-responses that they
could not speak directly about the case. A long time later I would discover that in late April
2001 Mr. Denise the man my daughter identified was suddenly dropped as a suspect and I
was then listed by Care House as a suspect (following Lisas fabricated allegations and false
statements to the police).
A year later, in June 2002, after a year of separation from me, recovered memory therapy in
Alaska, Elisabeth was brought back to Michigan and interviewed again at Care House now she
said dad touched her. (Again there was no video or audio recording made. When I requested
copies of the original handwritten observers notes, I was told they had been lost or destroyed and
that all that they kept on file was the typed after-interview summaries)
In 2002 I learned that Lisa had attempted to manufacture evidence, having taken evidence from
our house and did not give it the police.
I did not get most of this information until well after the fact. I remain convinced that the
investigation was mishandled, or worse. The allegations against me were fabricated by Lisa,
manipulated by Lisa, and that she planned her actions. The man my daughter identified (Shawn
Cotter) was apparently never interviewed: despite Elisabeths CareHouse interview, our police
report and statements to police, the tattoo identified by Elisabeth, his arrest report, or his
presence at multiple family functions. (He also has a sealed juvenile criminal record in
Michigan). Lisa lied directly to the police by fabricating comments made by the therapist; the
social worked made false comments of disclosure attributed to the therapist; and the therapist

conducted an investigation, not therapy. I dont know if anything happened to my daughters,

although I still suspect Lisas adult cousin Mr. Denise (Shawn Cotter)

ALASKA May 2001 June 2003

Lisa arrived in Alaska with our kids May 4. We spoke on the phone, she told me not to come to
Alaska or youll be sorry. She sent me e-mails that she "absolutely believes the girls". After a
couple of weeks, she cut off all contact.
Back in Michigan, I didn't hear anything from the social services department. There was sexual
abuse in Lisa's family when she was a child (two of her brothers were sexually abused by a high
school teacher). I thought that this had caused her to psychologically snap in some fashion, and
decided to give her some time while social services conducted their investigation. Also, we are
Catholic and I had every intention of saving our marriage and our family from what I saw as an
attack by an overzealous system.
On May 7, 2001 Lisa spoke with the police Lt. in Michigan. She told him she was in Alaska
with our children. She told him that our kids were in fear of their father, and that she had
decided to leave town and go back to her family. "She further stated that she was afraid that he
would come to Alaska. Writer advised her that if there is a real fear there, then she should start
immediately on a PPO there preventing contact. Writer advised her to start all necessary legal
procedures immediately if she was indeed in fear for her and her children's safety." (see )
Lisa did not. She waited until July 11, 2001 (after closure of the Michigan investigation)
June 14, 2001 (unknown to me) Michigan social services finalized the closure of the case.
Five days later, on June 19, 2001, Lisa hired a therapist for our children. At the initial interview,
the therapist wrote that Lisa told her our children had been sexually abused. The therapist
quoted Lisa as telling her, "Positive it was Kevin, maybe other as well but certain of him." (This
is the first time this statement by Lisa is seen anywhere)
After being in Alaska for 10 weeks, refusing to come home with our kids with, and with the
investigation finally closed in Michigan, Lisa filed for a restraining order in Kenai, Alaska on
July 11, 2001. She wrote on her statement of request: On March 15, 2001 my daughter

Elisabeth told me that her father (respondent) had be sexually molesting her and her sister over
time from October 2001to present." She also wrote: "he then threatened to make me fish food
if I suspected the abuser was him." I was served on July 22, 2001, although my attorney did not
make it to the hearing on July 30, 2001. Under questioning from the magistrate, Lisa repeated
her written statements. Without anyone there to counter her statements, a six-month order was
granted.
Lisa's written and oral statements to the court were perjury. Up to this point Lisa never made
such allegations, and her statement that she had been threatened by me comes out of thin air. Of
specific note is her written and sworn testimony "On March 15, 2001". The police report
was filed March 16, 2001, and none of her restraining order allegations are mentioned. Nor are
her allegations included in anything in Michigan, such as notes of social services, the police, or
in her voluntary statement provided to Michigan police on March 23, 2001.
(I was stunned that the Judge, in asking Lisa questions at the hearing, didnt ask why she waited
10 weeks before filing for a restraining order! Why not file in Michigan if any of it were true?!)
At no point after arriving in Alaska did Lisa make any report to Alaska social services. It was
the Court that referred to Social Services to review the case (after the long-term order was
granted). Alaska Social services concluded: Due to this case being investigated in Michigan the
Division of Family and Youth Services will not initiate another investigation here.

December 1, 2004
A hearing was held in Larimer County Court on a motion for my mother
to be able to visit her grandchildren. ChildSafe therapist Valerie Macri-Lind testified that she
recommended that my mother not be permitted to see her own grandchildren. Ms. Macri-Lind
said there would be risk of deleterious psychological effects on my children. Had reservations
about what my mother might say to her grandchildren with regard to "the children's reality", and
that any mention of me or the allegations would be disruptive to ChildSafe's activity with my
children. However, glaringly absent from Ms. Macri-Lind's testimony is any mention of her
knowledge that my daughter Catherine disclosed in the forensic interview of October 29, 2004
that Lisa Pendleton (mother) had coached her to make false allegations of abuse! This is clearly
relevant (and directly contrary) to her stated position of psychological risk to my children. Had
the Court had been made aware of Catherine's statements in the forensic interview, it is almost
certain the Court would have recognized the inappropriate, even absurd exclusion of a paternal
family member in view of mothers confirmed implantation of false memories of abuse in our
children.
Ms. Macri-Lind withheld from the Court clear proof that what she termed "the children's reality"
was a lie, manufactured and implanted in their minds by their mother.

It is impossible to think that this was anything other than obstruction of justice and perjury by
omission. At the time of the hearing, Ms. Macri-Lind had been with ChildSafe for 18 years, and
regularly testified in Larimer County Court. Intentionally withholding vital information from the
Court, Ms. Macri-Lind and ChildSafe continued with their "abuse therapy" for another 18
months, knowing they were following an inappropriate and even harmful course for my children.
Despite Catherine's disclosure of coaching, ChildSafe not only continued their individual "abuse
therapy" of my children, but placed both my daughters in group therapy for girls who had made
allegations of sexual abuse. Elizabeth was placed in this group immediately after the
Department of Human Services found ChildSafe's allegations against me as not credible (Aug
23, 2004). Catherine was placed in this group in September 2005, a month after her individual
therapy stopped, and 11 months after her October 2004 disclosure of coaching by mother.
At least three ChildSafe therapists were involved with my children (including Lori Lund, who
witnessed Catherine's disclosure of being coached), and all shared information with each other,
with Ms. Macri-Lind as clinical director. Their actions constitute obstruction of justice,
conspiracy to obstruct justice, conspiracy to violate ethical and professional standards, violation
of ethical and professional conduct standards, failure to report ethical and professional violations
of each other, witness tampering, conspiracy to commit witness tampering, conspiracy to commit
child abuse, and emotional child abuse of my children.
Lisa Pendleton (mother) cooperated with, and contributed to, all aspects of ChildSafe's therapy
on our children. She coached our children to make false allegations of abuse against me. She
knowingly committed obstruction of justice, conspiracy to obstruct justice, conspiracy to violate
ethical and professional standards, witness tampering, conspiracy to commit witness tampering,
conspiracy to commit child abuse, and emotional child abuse of our children. She also
threatened a local therapist, resulting in the filing of the police report against her (witness
intimidation). Following a police investigation in Alaska, her case was referred to the district
attorney for perjury and unsworn falsification.

Secondly, at this point ChildSafe was well into its second year of "abuse therapy" with all three
of my children. Ms. Macri-Lind testified that contact between my children and my mother
would interfere with ChildSafe's therapy of my children.

ChildSafe's therapy summaries do not record that Lori Lund referred Catherine for a forensic
interview, nor do they record ChildSafe's knowledge that Catherine made a disclosure of
coaching by her mother. ChildSafe continued the same line of "abuse therapy" on my children,
even enrolling Elisabeth in group therapy for girls who have sexual abuse histories. Elisabeth
was placed in this group in early fall 2004, "due to her repeated disclosures of sexual abuse by
her biological father and an investigation by the Larimer County Department of Human Services
which substantiated these allegations." (Macri-Lind therapy summary of Elisabeth-April 14,

2005 ) However, the State Department of Human Services had overturned the report filed by
ChildSafe regarding Elisabeth in August 2004, one month before she was placed in group
therapy. ( ) Thus, ChildSafe knowingly and inappropriately placed Elisabeth in group therapy,
and continued her in this group until May 2005, despite the intervening coaching disclosure by
Catherine in October 2004.
ChildSafe then continued their abuse therapy on all three of my children despite the overturn
of their own report to Human Services, and the October 29, 2004 disclosure by Catherine that
Lisas coached her to make false allegations. In doing so, ChildSafe conducted a cover-up
campaign of their inappropriate and harmful therapy on my children. ChildSafe had full
knowledge of the hazards they were creating by their actions, and displayed a reckless disregard
of possible consequences and indifference to the health, safety and rights of my children.
In her sworn testimony on December 1, 2004 Ms. Macri-Lind intentionally withheld from the
Court the disclosure that Lisa had coached Catherine. Ms. Macri-Lind then went on to
recommend that my entire family be cut off from contact with my children so that ChildSafe
could continue therapy on my kids! Macri-Lind knowingly misled the Court in order prevent
removal of my kids from their therapy and prevent examination of ChildSafes actions.

Linda Simmons, the ChildSafe therapist conducting the initial attempt at

reunification, wrote a letter to me that she was terminating contact
between my children and me, because I did not follow her
recommendations to "admit" to the reality of my children regarding the
abuse allegations. By her own writing and confirmation in testimony from
Valerie Macri-Lind at ChildSafe, Ms. Simmons communicated frequently
and regularly with ChildSafe and could not have been unaware of
Catherine's comments made during the October 29, 2004 interview. Thus,
it is clear that Ms. Simmons in attempting to have me acknowledge their

Magistrate Schapanski excused 3 ChildSafe therapists from deposition. I

found this very disturbing since a year earlier at the Dec. 1, 2004 hearing,
Valerie Macri-Lind, one of the therapists I had hoped to depose, testified
in court. Now she gets excused from being deposed? To me it seemed
clear that the Magistrate was protecting the therapists from exposure for
what they had been doing to my kids. Or worse, he is protecting the
system of abuses and civil rights violations from exposure. So much for
being allowed my rights as a non-residential parent. (Order Jan 31, 2005)

Dec 28, 2005

ChildSafe summaries, dated Nov 18 and Dec 5, arrive. They were

postmarked December 20, 2005, well after the scheduled date (Dec 15)
of the hearing and deposition. Intentionally delaying their records until
after the hearing, ChildSafe withheld from the Court (and from me) the
fact that they witnessed the interview and statements made by Catherine
in the October 29, 2004 LCCAC interview.
This is fraud and obstruction upon the Court.
Upon reading the ChildSafe summaries (after the hearing), it was
discovered that ChildSafe made no record of their witnessing the
interview of Catherine and her mom told me statements.
Also missing from the summaries was the fact that in Sept. 2005
ChildSafe placed my daughter Catherine in group therapy for girls 7-9
who have made allegations of sexual abuse despite their knowledge
of Catherines my-mom-told-me statements in Oct 29, 2004 interview This was done to program Catherine so that she would forget her
confirmation that her mother had coached her to make false allegations
of abuse, and that continued exposure to an abuse therapy
environment (individual and group) would enhance her suggestibility to
take on mothers alienation campaign and push Catherine further toward
This is OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE upon the Court for intentionally

withholding evidence. ChildSafe did not want the Court to see that they
had continued Catherine in individual abuse therapy, and additionally
in September 2005 witnessed included any mention of Catherines
interview in their therapy notes.
Further that they had committed a felony for failing to report emotional
abuse. As did Det. Voleski, Katharina Harden, Jennifer Middleton
(LCCAC), Lori Lund and the ChildSafe treatment team for failing report
the emotional abuse or Catherines disclosure of being coached.
Although Catherine had disclosed that she was coached by her mother to
make false abuse allegations, ChildSafe did not change their abuse
therapy of Catherine (or Elisabeth). Placing Catherine in group therapy
(2005) ONE YEAR AFTER her my mom told me disclosure was
witness tampering. It was ChildSafes effort to cover-up their emotional
abuse of my daughter by instilling more of the same abuse therapy,
causing reinforcement and implantation of a false memory.
In this regard they were acting in collusion/conspiracy with Lisa Pendleton
to program my children. Notes from other therapists (Dr. Govan, Ms.
McBride, Ms. Smith) confirm Lisa Pendletons efforts to disrupt the
reunification process, direct intimidation of our children, and severe
parental alienation and implanted memories in my children.
ChildSafe was required by law to report what they saw in the interview.
Also, they continued their abuse therapy on all three of my kids for
another year.
A specific process bears detailed consideration. ChildSafe therapists knew
of (and witnessed) Catherines video statement that her mother had told
her to make false allegations against me. ChildSafe did not report it. Nor
did ChildSafe alter or reconsider the therapy of all 3 of my kids. Elisabeth
at this time was in ChildSafe group therapy for girls who had made sexual
abuse allegations, and continued in that group until May 2005
The continual refusal of the Court to allow me full records of my children
from ChildSafe, refusal to allow me to conduct depositions of the
ChildSafe therapists involved with my children, the repeated failure of the
Court to respond to my motions to address the instability of their mother;
the Human Services Dept. relationship with the therapists in information
exchange; the fact that LCCAC, Human services, the FCPD, State
licensing boards and DORA investigators, even the office of the Governor
refusal to investigate cause me to consider that collusion or perhaps even
conspiracy existed in this circumstance with ChildSafe. There were
significant sums of money involved, and ChildSafe was billing for my
childrens therapy and group therapy for over 2 years. I at one time asked
the State to investigate whether ChildSafe had received Victims

Assistance funds for therapy of my children. I had discovered that

ChildSafe does receive substantial federal/state money for its abuse
therapy and programs. Keeping my children in their programs is
financially advantageous for them. And the continual

Therapists, CDHS workers, LCCAC interviewers, and the police are mandated reporters
of suspected child abuse. Yet none of them reported that my daughter Catherine had
disclosed that her mother had been coaching her to make false statements. This activity is
covered and defined within both Colorado definitions of emotional and psychological abuse, and
within the Centers for Disease Control child maltreatment surveillance definitions. Failure to
report child abuse or suspicion of child abuse is a criminal offense in Colorado. Additionally,
with several of these therapists, a human services social worker, and a police detective all
witnessed Catherine's disclosure that her mother coached her to make false abuse allegations, and
none took any action or made any separate report to investigate the mother. I believe this
constitutes a conspiracy to obstruct justice, and more importantly constitutes child abuse in itself.
Further therapy, both individual and group, was intentionally and needlessly conducted on both
my daughters

CDC CHILD MALTREATMENT

http://www.cdc.gov/ViolencePrevention/pub/CMP-Surveillance.html

Dept of Human services knowingly and repeated interfered with and damaged the parent-child
bond and relationship between my young children and me. The actions of Dept Human Services
constitute failure to report or respond to emotional and psychological child abuse as defined in
by Colorado law, and Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Child Maltreatment Definitions.
Specifically regarding Ms. Macri-Lind: in her testimony of December 1, 2004 she testified that
visits between my children and my mother would not be advisable because of her concern that
my mother might say something that might not validate my children's reality. She also
testified that contact between my mother and my children might pose some psychological risk
because of a family resemblance" between my mother and me, and went on to testify that the
only people that she would advise to limit my childrens contact with is me and my family.
(Transcript excerpt of Dec 1, 2004 p)
A:
Q:
A:

"Ms. Maguire and Dr. Maguire's family members who the children don't know.
So basically anyone related to Dr. Maguire
Correct.

Ms. Macri-Lind was aware of the interview of my daughter Catherine on October 29, and aware
that Catherine said that her mother had coached her to make false allegations. This is confirmed
in her own notes indicating that she had frequent contact with other child safe therapists, and

specifically with Ms. Lund, the child safe therapist who had been present at Catherine's October
29, 2004 interview.
This is obstruction of justice. Ms. Macri-Lind, Ms. Lund, Ms. Middleton (LCCAC interviewer),
Ms. Simmons, and Detective K. Voleski are ALL mandated reporters. They are required to
report suspicion of child abuse. Failure to report such suspicion is a criminal offense in
Colorado. Additionally, if knowledge of the Oct 29, 2004 interview and disclosure of
Catherines coaching by her mother was made known, it would have allowed the Court full
knowledge of the information and actions of Mother and prevented another 2 years of false
allegation-chasing and needless therapy by ChildSafe in pursuing a false line of accusation.
Keeping knowledge of both the interview and the disclosure of Mothers action a secret from the
Court, was intentional fraud upon the Court, failure to give me the information entitled (I had
joint legal custody) Social services. Despite the ChildSafe and Lisa allowed the therapy to
become abusive and directly aid in the alienation which was later so terrible as to evince
emotional harm to our children. (see I hate Kevin letter, and Elisabeths letters 2006-07)
This went far beyond misrepresentation. Failure to disclose their knowledge of Catherines
comment allowed them to keep my daughter in therapy circumstances which reinforced mothers
coaching, cover their tracks for their abusive and inappropriate therapy, and help mother to
continue her psychological abuse, brainwashing and alienation. Together these constitute a
conspiracy to commit child abuse, willful failure to disclose a statement of emotional or
psychological abuse by a child, and fraud upon the Court for withholding information which
would have given up to date and complete information for proper evaluation of the childrens
circumstances. Deflecting the grandmother may make statements counter to the childrens
reality? Catherine already made that statement! Catherines statement exposed the lie and harm
being perpetrated by her mother and ChildSafe, and ChildSafe needed to cover it up. Mother
was cooperative in bringing our children to ChildSafe for further harmful therapy. Social
services, LCCAC and the police were all too willing to cooperate by keeping silent.
Conspiracy to obstruct justice:
Present at Catherine's October 29, 2004 interview were Katharina Harden, social services;
Detective Kathy Voleski of the Fort Collins Police Department; Lori Lund, Catherine's therapist
at ChildSafe (Ms. Lund made the social services report of Oct 11, 2009 which led to this
interview); and the LCCAC interviewer Jennifer Middleton. Confirmation that they witnessed
Catherine's statement that her mother had coached her is documented in Katharina Hardens
social services notes of the interview, noting the presence of herself, Lori Lund, and Detective
Voleski at Catherine's interview.(social services note On November 16, 2004, following a visit with my children, as I walked into the parking lot I was
met by Katharina Harden and Detective Voleski. Ms. Harden said she wanted the three of us to
go somewhere to talk about the case right now, saying that she wanted asked me a few questions.
I said the case went back many years and that this would probably be better done my attorney's
office. I gave them his address and phone number and said that we could arrange to speak at his
office. (CD of the police recording available) Later we agreed to meet on November 18 in my
attorney's office.

After visiting with my kids on November 18, 2004 my attorney and I met with Ms. Harden and a
different Fort Collins policewoman. Ms. Harden spent just short of two hours asking questions
about Michigan, and only a few minutes speaking about Colorado. I told her that the case had
been in Michigan and Alaska now in Colorado, and that the allegations Lisa Pendleton and
ChildSafe had made last year (Aug 2003) had been overturned by the State Department of
Human Services. Ms. Harden said that she didn't care, that she was going to continue with
another investigation. (social services note)
According to her notes, Ms. Harden went to the home of Lisa Pendleton on November 22, 2004
and "updated" her on the meeting that she and the police detective had with me in my attorney in
his office. Home visit yesterday to update mother about interview yesterday with father. Ms.
Harding also made a reference to pending criminal cases." Her use of the word "updated"
implies that Ms. Harden had previous conversations with Lisa Pendleton, and discussed what
appears to be an ongoing social services investigation.

Larimer County Department of Human Services, Fort Collins Police Department, ChildSafe
therapists, Larimer County Child advocacy Center (LCCAC) and Lisa Pendleton, have conspired
to conceal and undermine any attention or further investigation into the actions allegations and
responses of the above parties as regards my children and myself. The statements of my
daughter Catherine, repeatedly identifying her mother as coaching her, is perhaps the most
obvious and egregious example of Lisa Pendleton's ongoing campaign against our children, not
only go unreported or investigated, but the agencies and individuals involved, including

On June 27, 2005, I filed a complaint against the Larimer County Department of Human
Services with the Colorado State Department of Human Services. I requested an investigation
into their actions dating back to August 2003, which had been inflicting/permitting emotional
and psychological abuse on my children, and also for apparent collusion in refusing to
investigate that my daughter Catherine that she was coached by her mother to make false abuse
allegations.
For over a year I wrote to multiple departments and dozens of individuals within the Department
of Human Services, State and local government. What responses I did receive were dismissive
and did not answer my questions. Glaringly absent was any mention of my daughter Catherine's
October 29, 2004 forensic interview and her statements within that interview. On March 10,
2006 the Larimer County attorney wrote to me "There will not [be] any further investigation
conducted nor will there be further correspondence with you about this investigation."
I had also requested to present my complaint to a Citizen Review Panel, per Colorado law
(section 19 3 211, CRS). I was repeatedly denied.
From May and September 2006 I wrote to the Governor. The final letter concluded: The Office
of the Governor is unable to dedicate any further resources to assist you with this matter.
(September 27, 2006)

I wrote to Gov. Bill Ritter, December 25, 2008, but I received no response.

ChildSafe, social services, LCCAC and Lisa Pendleton have acted individually and collusively to
maintain a stream of allegations and baseless safety concerns in order to keep my children and I
effect an underlying pattern of efforts to elicit an admission from me, to continue my children
in therapy for abuse which has been disproven and even confirmed as coached by their mother,

The organizations, agencies, and individuals identified above have intentionally and maliciously
engaged in a continual stream of allegations, recovered memories, inappropriate abuse therapy,
failure to document therapy used, refusal to release records, obstruction of justice, conspiracy to
obstruct justice, failure to report emotional/psychological abuse, coercion to elicit an
admission and failure to document statements from my children which would have exposed
the unnecessary therapy enacted on my children.
What is apparent from this pattern is that many have profited, especially the various therapists.
Maintaining the faade allowed ChildSafe to collect tens of thousands of dollars in payments for
therapy on my children needless and harmful therapy. Other therapists, ostensibly involved
to break the pattern of alienation, also garnered tens of thousands of dollars in fees.
Collectively and individually, this amounts to nothing less than child exploitation.

The evidence presented here is representative. They have knowingly acted to directly cause and
to abet child abuse of my children, refused to take action to stop the child abuse, failed to
properly investigate the abuse, altered records, made false reports, withheld records to which I
was entitled, and acted with coercion and in collusion with private individuals/organizations to
deflect attention and to cover up their part in the abuse of my children and the violation of our
civil rights.

I have grave concerns about the manner in which the investigation of the possible abuse of my
children was conducted in Michigan. Some specific points stand out.
First:
Our daughter Elizabeth identified and described Mr. Denise (Shawn Cotter) multiple times to
both Lisa and me.
She disclosed "a friend of aunt Denise" at her forensic interview at Care House (no video done)
Elizabeth directly told the police Lt. that the man had "a tattoo where he pees".
An arrest record of Shawn Cotter identifies a tattoo on his right hip.
Second:
Despite the above evidence, just five days after the forensic interview Care House told the police
that Elizabeth would have to undergo as much as six months of extensive counseling in an effort
to have her name her attacker.

Also, despite the above evidence, the police wrote It is recommended that no suspects be
interviewed until one is actually named by the young victim".
Third:
Despite the initially detailed disclosures of Elizabeth, there was apparently no effort made to
conduct any investigation whatsoever of Shawn Cotter, or of Lisa's aunt's house.
The transfer of the case from Farmington Hills to Huntington Woods seems to have deflected all
interest from investigating Elizabeth's initial disclosures.
Fourth:
It seems clear that both the police and Care House inappropriately left the investigation function
in the hands of the therapist recommended by Care House. This is even more disturbing in that
Elizabeth had already given multiple disclosures naming Shawn Cotter (Mr. Denise). Thus
leaving the therapist with the task of eliciting a name from Elizabeth, rather than concentrating
solely on her professional role, that of assessing the need for and providing psychological or
emotional therapy.
Fifth:
Regarding the April 6, 2001, questioning session at home conducted by Lisa, there was no effort
made to confirm that this questioning session was conducted at the request of the therapist (it
was not requested or approved by the therapist). It is later noted that no action could be taken in
the case because of the repeated questioning conducted by Lisa.
Sixth:

Regarding the effect upon our children of having to undergo
