Rescue The Fosters

The McCord family — a Christian conservative couple who lovingly adopted two children through private adoptions — set out to build a peaceful, happy home. Life was simple and full of love... until everything changed. On December 1, 2023, their world was turned upside down when Georgia’s Special Victims Unit arrived. Monique was held in her own home as officers took the son she had raised for 13 years and placed him with his biological mother. Just one month later, DFCS came again — this time for their adoptive daughter. What followed has been a two-year battle to fight for their children and uncover the truth.

Diana Sullivan married her middle school sweetheart at just 21 years old, and together they are approaching 20 years of marriage built on faith, perseverance, and deep love. From the very beginning, they dreamed of a big family—but their path to parenthood was anything but easy. After 14 years of heartbreak, prayer, and countless medical treatments, their long-awaited miracle arrived through IVF. Their daughter, Arabella, was born in December 2019, and she was worth every needle, every tear, and every unanswered prayer that came before her. Parenthood exceeded everything they had imagined. Knowing how much love they had to give, Diana and her husband hoped to give Arabella a sibling. After another two and a half years and a full IVF cycle, they transferred their final two embryos. When asked what she wanted for her third birthday, Arabella answered simply, “Both.” Her wish was granted. Diana was pregnant with twins—a baby boy and a baby girl—due in August 2023. After a complicated pregnancy and a final trimester spent on strict hospital bedrest, preterm labor struck unexpectedly on July 2, 2023, leading to an emergency C-section. Their son was born just under five pounds, and their daughter just over three. After 42 long days in the NICU, the family was finally home—complete after 16 years of waiting. For seven precious weeks, life felt whole. Then, at just 11 weeks and 6 days old, their daughter awoke with a swollen thigh. What began as a terrified early-morning trip to the emergency room quickly turned into something unimaginable. Instead of compassion, Diana and her husband were met with accusations, suspicion, and separation—marking the beginning of a 19-month ordeal that would change their lives forever. This is Diana’s story of faith tested, motherhood challenged, and a world she never knew existed—until it became her reality.

Pepper Woodworth: My case was 15 years ago. Someone made a false report saying my daughter fell into a pool because she was unattended. There was no pool. They couldn’t find anything to open a case, so they started with the whole “we can help with daycare and other resources” approach—resources I was never actually given. What I didn’t realize was that this wasn’t how it would end. She continued to be involved in my life. At the time, I was staying with my parents, who were alcoholics. When I went into labor with my daughter, I had to leave the hospital because they were intoxicated and I couldn’t leave my other children with them. I had no one to watch my kids while I gave birth. She said she would place us all together in full family foster care. Instead, she showed up, took my children, and had my doctor put me on a 72-hour hold. I was transferred to the psychiatric unit. After my water broke, I was sent to labor and delivery, where I spent a couple of hours with my baby so they could make sure I didn’t bleed to death. Then I was sent back to the psychiatric unit for a couple of days—without my baby. I was later picked up by the family who took my baby. A few days after that, they picked me up again, brought me my children, and dropped me off at a homeless shelter—with a six-year-old, a three-year-old, an almost two-year-old, and a newborn.

Grant Phillips is a family advocate in Indiana focused on protecting families, due process, and truth within child welfare and related medical legal systems. His work centers on exposing systemic failures that lead to wrongful allegations, medically unsupported diagnoses, and government overreach that devastates families. Driven by personal experience and extensive case review, Grant works directly with Indiana families navigating DCS investigations, administrative proceedings, and court involvement—often where medical opinions, contractual incentives, or procedural shortcuts replace evidence and fundamental rights. He has assisted families facing life-altering allegations rooted in flawed assessments rather than verified facts. Grant’s advocacy emphasizes transparency, accountability, and reform, including physician identification requirements, limits on unsupported medical consultations, and protections against investigatory practices that bypass due process. Through research, public education, and direct support, he works to ensure families are not silenced, mislabeled, or stripped of their rights without evidence. His work continues to gain public attention across Indiana, contributing to growing awareness of how unchecked systems can cause harm—and how informed advocacy can help restore justice for families caught in the middle.

Dana was born and raised in Amherst, New York, where he graduated from high school, then attended Niagara Community College.

While still in grade school, he became an avid reader of books on early explorers and outdoorsmen. Learning that the American West was opened by early explorers and trappers scouting out new territory, he was inspired to learn the art of trapping. That fascination also led him to work for a while as a lumberjack. He also expressed an interest in learning guitar at the early age of four, which his parents encouraged, buying him a small guitar and he taught himself to play. By his early teens, he was an accomplished classical and folk guitarist. He performed in city-wide crusades in western New York in the 1980’s, and in Oklahoma at both Rhema Bible Church and World Outreach Church. Senator Prieto continues to play guitar at local churches, including Millennial Church in Tulsa where he and his wife are members.

I am a mother of 3 amazing Choctaw native American boys that are being alienated/ divided from me, I am being erased from their lives. I had full custody up until May of 2020 when the grandparents my parents did not like that I was moving and removing my boys from a toxic dysfunctional family situation. My mother was so extremely jealous of the relationship I had with my Boys that she would at all cost do anything to destroy mine and my boys lives. Grandparents have a close relationship with the retired Judge and he does whatever they ask and believes all the accusations and lies. I had someone from their school come forward and tell me that the judge himself contacted the schools and told them not to let me pick up my boys that the grandmother was on her way. That he had met and they informed him that I was crazy and they need to get the boys immediately and that he believed them and they were to give the boys to my mother and not me. Granted we had not gone to court had NO ORDERS, NO Law enforcement and NO permission to take them. KIDNAPPING!!! Under the color of law. .My children were happy healthy thriving boys with no issues whatsoever. 15 years prior to this they had taken my sisters daughter except she didn’t fight them. Also they have stalked me put spyware on my children’s phones and law enforcement refused to help me. 13 CPS report of abuse made by other people no me, counselor, friends parents, teacher etc. Grand father strangled the 10 year old in Rosenburg, Texas and they were about to be indicted when the judge from here contact the DA and lied and said I had made the strangulation story up… and it was dismissed. My 13 year old at the time recorded the whole incident and I had that recording of it all. The local sheriff and deputy’s refused to protect my boys and give them and protective order while the Rosenberg case was being investigated they told me their was nothing they could do. I had to go in front of the retired judge “my dads good buddy he worked with over 40 years” and see what he said he threatened me total me he would put me in jail for 3 years no bond if I spoke ill of him law enforcement my parents their attorneys etc. and refused to help. 4 and a half years ago they took my oldest first and alienated him, he was diagnosed with parental alienation syndrome, and 2 years ago they took the other 2 boys by kidnapping them as well and but with the help of the sheriff and a few deputies. When they picked up my youngest son my mother a deputy made my son say that I was mean and hit him. The deputy said when I turn on my body camera you say exactly what you r grandmother told you to and he said mommy I was crying because they said if I didn’t say this I would neve see you again. The judge has stated I will never get my children back ever.
