00:00from mike jost at cinema blend watching this documentary there's an incredible amount of
00:05times when family or professionals could have stepped in and removed you from your mother's
00:09care in your opinion do you have any insight as to why that never happened um you know i think a
00:16big part of it was um there was people that had suspicions family included um but nobody just
00:23wants to rock the boat you know so it wasn't brought up to other people it wasn't talked about
00:31so people kind of kept their suspicions to themselves just for fear of upsetting my mom
00:37and her ultimately pushing them away as friends or whatnot um so i think that on the professional
00:45standpoint i think that for those doctors that did have suspicions i think it all has to do
00:52with money honestly and that's just my that's my opinion about it um you know they were making
00:58money off of me and so i think that in their profession i think that that came first i remember
01:06gypsy we had discussed that cps came to your house at one point um remind me about that yeah tell us
01:14about that they did come to my house um and basically they were asking me the wrong questions
01:21so they were looking they're like show me your arm show me your legs and they were checking for
01:26bruises and at that point my mom never hit me um they wasn't asking the right questions to me
01:34yeah and so nothing was ever ever done nothing like there was no follow-up report or anything
01:40they came the one time um and then they closed the file and if i recall from our conversation this
01:47happened in the habitat for humanity house on volunteer way is that my memories right yeah one
01:54thing that if i recall this is just my memory i think after that incident when cps came believe
02:02you were telling me your mom became more paranoid about strangers and put garbage bags over the
02:08windows right right you want to tell us about that she became like increasingly more paranoid after
02:15that visit from cps and um she actually went as far as to remove the doorbell on the door
02:22um because she was just so paranoid about them coming back
