A conservative group is supporting Fitchburg parents Isael Rivera and Ruth Encarnacion, who face kidnapping charges after fleeing to Texas with their five children to escape DCF custody. DCF revealed that their decision to take the children was not based solely on vaccination status, citing a complex history including allegations of medical neglect. The case has sparked significant public discussion around parental rights and state intervention, with rally supporters emphasizing their commitment to family unity.
Jeff Kuhner, host of the Kuhner Report, stated, 'Their only crime is that they love their children, literally, and they have five beautiful children,' highlighting the parental perspective in the ongoing controversy.
The Department of Children and Families mentioned that 'immunization status alone is not a reason to remove children,' emphasizing their criteria for child custody decisions.
Police records indicate that this particular case was prompted by a report of medical neglect, showcasing a deeper context to the DCF's involvement beyond vaccine status.
According to police, Encarnacion's sister reported her missing 'after the Department of Children and Families had notified the family that they were taking custody of the five children,' revealing the chain of events.
