Committee advances investigative‑warrant tool for child-welfare cases after heated public comment First substitute SB 124 would allow courts to issue narrowly tailored, time-limited investigative warrants to give caseworkers "eyes on" children when access is denied and credible evidence of serious harm exists; the committee adopted an amendment and advanced the bill by a narrow recorded vote after extensive testimony for and against.

A contentious vote in Utah could pave the way for a new investigative warrant system aimed at protecting children from serious harm, but it raises significant concerns about parental rights and potential misuse.

This is why #DueProcess & #HabeusCorpus matter to #FamilyLaw #FamilyRights #ChildrensRights #CivilRights #HumanRights. Is it any wonder that this #Fascist administration wants to rid us of these protections? #FamilySeparations #AdoptionTrafficking #LegalKidnapping #AdoptionIsTrauma #FosterCare

The #BestInterests of the #child/ #children are inherently enmeshed + protected within #ParentalRights & #FamilyRights. That's why every level of law + policy has enshrined it as such. In the instances of a child needing to be removed from their parent(s), the #FamilyRights still = Best Interests.

Because #ParentalRights & #FamilyRights are reciprocal & expansive #FamilySeparations aren't just violations of the parent(s)/grandparent(s)/biological relative(s)/kinship rights, they are inherently a violation of #ChildrensRights. Children have a right not to be illegally detained, separated, etc.
