What happened to Oakley?!
not sure but we just started watching you a few wks ago and stumbled up on your ppd video and just wanted to share with you we just had our last baby one yr ago and her name is emmy lou ! just thought that was a cute coincidence we love your work!
I love your videos so much respect and knowledge I have been watching you forever now it feels like! Congratulations to 601k!!!!! You deserve it sm!!! You will forever be my favorite youtuber!!! 😍
My granddaughter’s name is Oakleigh.
You did such a good job on this video and I hope millions and millions of people watch this so that they can find this little girl
with all due respect, nobody here is a CPS expert. They make a lot of flubs but people also don't understand the laws they have to follow. A claim from a child with no further proof would not warrant a crime. If people complete treatment and that is verified, they have to acknowledge that they did what was asked. The parents in these cases have attornies and it becomes a deal where constitutional rights are fought for. As in any crime , there has to be ohysical evidence . At the end of the day the fault lies with the perpetrator. anybody can hustle the system- thats not the systems fault
So much for “the best interest of the child”… CPS needs to be dismantled & rebuilt from the ground up. Despicable
Yep, they dont give two hairy $hits about kids. Its exactly the opposite.
Completely agree. These programs keep putting a these innocent children right back into the hands of the monsters that hurt them. It’s insane.
We can't forget the kids they take away from parents for absolutely no damn reason! 🙄 I have a couple friends who's had their kids taken for no reason at all! But leave the kids that truly need to be removed. It's disgusting. But I don't expect much from them, coming from the state partly responsible for Harmony Montgomery. 😭
@@katelyns419 That is true, too! They cant get anything right, its like they strive to do the very opposite of the right thing.
@@katelyns419 amen girl
Every single cps worker that came in contact with that case needs to be held accountable. This poor baby. I feel physically ill over this
I agree!! Where are the petitions we can sign? There must be a Facebook group or something to get information on how we can help them fight for justice! The bio parents will get what they have coming. I think getting this specific DCFS investigated is so important to save other kids in that area!!! Unacceptable!!
I agree in that cps case workers should be held accountable in this case and the countless others they just shuffle through
I agree, but I think this isn't going to get better if the evaluations only happen on a case worker to case worker basis and not the system as a whole. Punishing individual case workers is necessary sometimes, but it's the system as a whole that needs to be evaluated, and that needs to implement some serious changes.
And the judge
Me too. Sickening & brings out feelings of violence towards those parents, and negligent social workers.
This is my biggest fear. We’ve had custody of our son since he was 2 & is turning 7 next week, but the adoption still isn’t finalized. Cps is a joke. Poor Oakley.
No case should be drug out this long. Shame on not only CPS, but the judicial system as well. If the bio parents can't get it together in 5 years, they shouldn't be parents. For the love of God, TPR these parents and let you adopt him so he can have permanency. Prayers for your family...
Sending prayers & positive vibes to your son, you & your whole family🙏🏼Prayers he's kept with you, right where he belongs for all of his childhood til he's grown 🙏🏼 ♡ 😘
I hope you are moving towards finalizing your adoption. I know that’s the only way you’ll ever feel safe in the knowledge that your little boy will remain safe and well cared for. I hope that cases like Oakley’s help inspire CPS to do the right thing with in these cases.
Sending positive vibes to you and your family. ❤ I hope it goes through for you and your son!
Our situation was exactly the same. They don't care about small things like scratches or rashes. Or drugs (our bio mom kept failing drug tests for our son WHILE she was pregnant with another) and they still didn't do anything. They want people to live the kids but not so much that you hassle them. Foster parents have to meet daunting standards (which is why there are so few homes) while bios provide way less than "standard" care. DHS does not give any weight to what the child says or wants. My son was left on a floaty raft in a pool when he was 2...couldn't swim yet.. and bio told him to stay on it till she came back for him. On the visits she "wanted to so badly" she left him to watch Dr. Phil. Didn't feed him. Didn't change him. My son was taken into custody at birth and placed with us at 3 mos. Instead of going to court to terminate at 22 mos like the law on the books states, DHS refused to make a case. The bio mom didn't even have visitation from the time my son was 3 and still he wasn't able to be adopted till he was 6. The judge tore DHS a new ass, as he had never seen a case be so mishandled. People got fired and/or retired bc of it. Lucky he didn't die. The delay and stress ruined my marriage, eroded my faith, ruined my life.
How the hell are there no charges being made against the parents?!? They’re not giving any info on what happened to Oakley and they just get to live their life like nothing has happened. This is insane!!
I’ve also heard in certain states if you don’t report your child missing you can be charged…. I’m assuming it’s not one of those states because clearly no one gives a shit about this kid or these drug addict, Awful abusive parents.
When Annie said, "why should he get to feel safe when he couldn't keep his own children safe?" was just ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON.
wow, Annie must have hit her peak to get fake spam accounts in her name.
@@jess_jeff7549 ?
Oakley has a large family of relatives. Where are all them?
Some of these caseworkers need to be held accountable. They have a responsibility to these kids and clearly, they aren't following through properly and it is causing a lot of lives to be lost :(
Agreed 100%
I agree! They need to be held accountable!!! I understand its not an easy job, if you can't do it then don't apply! Because they didn't want to do their jobs a child is missing... yet good parents that lose their kids have to go thru the ringer to get their kids back and some never do get their kids back! There's to many children gone or missing that had open cps cases...
It's happening over and over again
Not only did no one get reprimanded, but one of them actually got promoted! That was sickening to hear...
@@kmead82_1 If I knew I was responsible for something like that I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night, let alone ask for a promotion. No morals/values whatsoever
It's tiring to hear about the negligence of the child protection services, especially when the social worker gets promoted instead of them being arrested
They only care about statistics. Reunification statistics even if it's not in the best interest of the poor baby. Another disgusting example of CPS
I was in foster care from birth and visiting my bio parents was always super confusing and scary for me. i’d scream and cry that I didn’t want to go and literally have to be dragged out of my foster parents house. hearing all this, ik oakley probably felt the same. my heart goes out for that baby girl
It's insane to me that they can just force kids to spend time with their bio parents, even when they protest so vehemently... I'm glad it's different in my country
the problem is more that it's difficult to get this right with rules.
the best way to understand that is by imagining this being done well within a large family, like with the help of grandparents, aunts etc. to help with a rough patch. parental visits are usually best in the environment of the kid and with the primary care giver around, ideally with the kids having some choice and say.
Thank you. As a student of both the Hiles, they are everything Oakley needed. This just breaks my soul
So they are both teachers? What kind of teachers? Just curious!
They seem it
@@KrissyLynn999 I'm curious what type of teachers and what grades they teach, as well.
@@JesusDisciple916 Jamie was a senior class teacher, her husband was a substitute when he could
💔 I’m tired of these babies being harmed!!! Thank you for bringing light to these cases!
You are so welcome
I am too! How can we better protect them?
Right? The 2022 epidemic was hurting our own children and family members. 😭😭😭
I blame the government!!! Why the hell was she put back with them animals? The foster parents loved her so much no wonder they were scared .why is there never any justice? That beautiful babys probably dead because nobody did there job properly!!!
Agreed! Super annoyed with people messing with children! 🤬
THANK YOU! You are the first True Crime RUclipsr that I have seen cover this case so in depth. I'm from Aberdeen, WA, and I have been asking every true crime channel I watch to cover this case because Oakley needs to be found, and more coverage needs to be out there. My heart breaks for Oakley, and I KNOW her parents did something to that sweet little girl! So, thank you again for covering Oakley's case. Hopefully, she gets some justice soon.
It actually amazes me that this was the first true crime channel to cover this case and I was shocked when I read your comment. I 100% agree from what I’ve read that these parents are to blame with her disappearance. To call them parents is a joke in itself as they were anything but. Hopefully other true crime channels will follow suit and cover and share this story
@Hrts4leahhh I agree! It's so so sad that Oakley still has yet to be found and hasn't received justice! There are still signs, stickers, posters everywhere to remind our community that she is still missing and there isn't justice for her, it breaks my heart!
@@NesaAnn87start a channel for Oakley. I agree with you. 💔🫶
How are they allowed to go free when they can't produce Oakley?! My husband is a former detective and has never heard of such a thing. I'm completely baffled that the government is just okay with them walking free when a child in their care is still missing. Make it make sense!
I suffered with addiction and when I had my twins 3 weeks after they were born I went into a 6 month rehab. My babies went into the care of a older lady we had lived by and when I got out of rehab I had to do family drug court: random drug tests weekly, counseling and weekly update with the judge. I started with supervised visits and slowly got to un supervised overnights. Within 10 months I got full custody back but even now 7 years later the lady who had my boys is like a grandma. They love her as much as she loves them and I’m so blessed. I can’t believe they just took this baby and put her back in a home without making sure she was good. I remember once I had been 10 min late to a counseling appointment and because of that the judge made me wait another week to move up in the program. They failed that baby
my brother fostered a baby for a year that was born addicted to heroine, but mom got clean, worked on herself and got him back. he still calls my brother daddy and they come to holidays and stuff and he watches him while she goes to work and stuff. foster can be so wholesome, but so often the babies are just failed.
I’ve been through a very similar situation as you, us and our kids are the small percentage in the system that are the LUCKY ones! When in reality EVERY CHILD SHOULD BE THE “Lucky ones”
Agreed. Thank you for sharing. God bless you .
You are amazing. So glad you accepted it as an opportunity to create a support network and wonderful loving environment for you and your babies.
Thank u for sharing this. It is so nice that u and ur babies still have a relationship w her. U should be proud of urself for all ur hard work to get them back
This is so infuriating. The foster parents yelled from the rooftops and CPS still couldn’t get it right. Heartbreaking 💔
Sooo true!!! & they didn’t wanna get it right! 😢
I really hope she is alive somehow. I broke when you mentioned Oakley singing "grownups come back" when she left her foster family. She is the same age of my daughter and this rips my heart open. God please help Oakley come home. 🙏
This breaks my heart and it infuriates me how these babies are CONSTANTLY being failed.
At this point CPS is just trafficking.
I hate it so much! My heart is broken for these babies. So many healthy families are separated as well with little cause. What is going on????!
That's exactly what it is. Why do kids from junkies get put back in their care when they can't prove they are clean? But yet average families have to go through class after class and red tape and fines in hopes to get their kids back and have little hope
I’m so happy you covered this. Her foster mom is so amazing and has been searching for her relentlessly. Bring Oakley to her TRUE home. Trying to stay positive about this is hard but hope is all we have at the end of the day.
Completely agree!
I’d argue she isn’t even “her foster mom” & deserves the title of just “mom”. I’m sick that she’s fighting more for that Angel that her bio “”””mother””””
@@embadly I can’t even call Jordan the bio mother, she doesn’t deserve that respect, she’s just Jordan! I agree with you, Jamie Jo is Oakley’s mother!
I wouldn’t argue it at all. She is her mother. But for the sake of not confusing the masses I said “foster” because that’s politically correct. Her bio mother giving birth to her doesn’t make her a mother.
Its terrifying that she was taken from good loving parents who were reporting the blatant red flags
Happens all the time
@@BrandyinIndy but it shouldn't happen all the time.
@@tinawolf5560 totally agree. Shouldn't happen at all, but it does and it's unacceptable.
THIS is why people resort to taking the law into their own hands sometimes. It's horrible that we can't trust those who are supposed to help.
Good loving parents? You mean selfish foster parents that didn't ever want to give her back even if the biological parents were doing good.
What a sweet girl she was!! You can tell how comfortable she was with her foster parents. Their bond was natural. RIP ANGEL OAKLEY
My heart breaks for Jamie Jo, she tried so hard to protect those kids and help them escape their evil parents but the system failed them. I hope she is able to have kids of her own one day or adopt another child because she's the type of person we need raising babies.
I agree with you 💯percent..
Oakley’s sister told everyone what happened. They were starving & abusing Oakley.
😢
These CPS workers MUST be held accountable.
Reunification is NOT always in the best interest of the child/children.
I say this as an adoptive mother of two.
R.I.P Oakley. I’m sorry so many people failed you.
🙏🏻
I dont understand why they just left when oakley refused to speak with them. They should have interviewed the other children as well and cross checked all statements.
The fact that the case worker in this case got a promotion seriously sickens me!!!!
@@kristinmartinez66 same here 😡
ruinification is only a goal for kids who are taken away, right? like if a kid was given up they woukdnt try to find the parent and make them take the kid back?
Cps in our state (Washington is a fin joke) I've called over and over again on my sister and she always abused her kids and they never did anything. And than she moved state and they dismissed everything. The whole system needs a refresher course and needs NEW social workers.
"There is no more Oakley"... I literally got goosebumps and am now crying and shaking... Babies don't just say things like that. They repeat what they are told. I am devastated for this baby girl. I am praying for her, her siblings, and her foster parents.
Horrible that's so sick
We need social workers that actually care about the well-being of the children. So many don't actually care and it's so so sad
This reminds me of the Harmony Montgomery case. Both little angels that didn't deserve what happened to them. Rip Oakley and Harmony 🕊
Harmony Montgomerys case destroyed me. That sweet lil girl. I cry for her often.
@@georgeann3714 harmony was found so close to us and that father went on the news after acting so upset give me a break the only difference is the mom kept getting a check from harmony after throwing the little girl away 😢
I recently retired as a front-line social worker; I did the job in the trenches for over 20 years. I can guarantee that this precious little girl cried for her Mommy and it pissed her bio mother off. I absolutely believe it was intentional, out of jealousy and hatred for the "foster" parents as much as disdain toward the child. So sad.
You should know that those foster parents didn't do anything to try and keep a good relationship between Oakley and her biological parents. I guarantee that they had nothing good to say about them to her. It's obvious they expected to adopt her and didn't want her parents to succeed. It wouldn't have mattered if they were doing good or not. The bio parents were obviously not doing well... and may have been horrible but that doesn't make what the foster parents did right.
They were just as selfish.
“We found that (DCYF’s) actions and conducts in this case were consistent with laws, policies and court orders. Our investigation however identified opportunities to improve services to families, specifically to preserve and strengthen the parent-child bond when a child is removed from the home. Parent-child visits are critical to a successful family reunion. Reunification planning should not only focus on a parent’s successful compliance with services but should also address parent-child bonding and attachment issues.”
That's it 100%.
@@awkwardautistic So the bio parents are ALWAYS given back a child, after being proven to be unfit, due to a clerical error? Or are you projecting your rage due to your own insecurities?
Nevermind, doesn’t matter. CPS failed Oakley, & people like you trying to pin blame on some random person just goes to prove why weaponising autism is nothing more than proving how unfit you are to be in any sort of society.
Have a better day than you deserve.
DYS is a joke. They are supposed to keep kids safe. Biological placement isn't always best. They need to restructure the system to the healthiest placement for the child. For " austic" to make that statement about the foster parents us delusional
The bio parents can't even take care of them selves. Totally had drugs are a priority over thier own children.
They don't deserve to be called parents
@@awkwardautistic @10 to LIFE What!!!!! how about human nature & doing the correct thing instead of pieces of paperwork & policies !!!! Let me remind u the child is missing the foster parents were the only ones who really cared & wanted that human being!!!! If the foster parents did anything wrong it was not going to the police when the child was returned back to them with scratches on face, sick tummy, no diaper change ..please understand i'm not saying u were not a good social worker but what i am saying is procedures as u see in this case DON'T always work & it takes a combined physical presence of many people to see all sides !!! No1 should talk bad about anyone especially to a child about any1 in there life, They deserve love, warmth, caring, & selflessness..
The sister mentioned the parents said Oakley was eaten by wolves in the woods. Search the woods near the home all pathological liars hide a speck of truth in their lie. I pray they have the decency to admit what happened and let her be recovered and honored the way she deserves!
I had the exact same thought!!
They will never admit it😢
Normally I would agree. However, I think eaten by wolves is such a common thing in fairy tales, that it would have been an easy explanation to kids. Evil parents say things like "behave or the monster will get you, just like the kids in the stories" all the time. It's sickening how the worst parents use fear to control and destroy their children.
I think the “mother” had obvious anger issues and that sweet girl cried out for her foster mom be it when she was being disciplined or something else and it infuriated the mother more. I think something happened and the mother beat that baby and it turned deadly, since finding blood in the home. I believe that they hid her body in the woods to save themselves. I mentioned that liars tend to always have a piece of truth in their lies. I lived this with a family member my whole life who also was/is addicted to drugs. I think they do that so they can keep up with their lies since everything in their life is a lie. Regardless hopefully they find it in themselves to do one thing right in their life and come clean about what happened. 🙏🏻
I live in this town..😢 I'm so happy you mentioned Andrew getting away with murder. This is a small dirty town, and I've seen a lot of gross people in positions of power. I definitely believe what happened was on purpose! Idk if she was sold or unalived, but it wasn't an accident. These people are sick and deserve no remorse. Angela Fries is gross and her own sister is a m user and she has her kids. Hmmm.
Now it makes sense why Andrew and Jordan got Oakley back. Angela can’t make it seem like she’s playing favorites by letting her sister have her kids, so she just gives any addict their kids back even if they don’t deserve them.
The Hiles seemed like such a loving and wonderful couple, and you can see the beautiful connection they had with Oakley in the recording...just the way Oakley is sitting so comfortably on her dad's lap and playing with his shirt, and just the way they are conversing with her and listening to her tell her story in her safe space with them. ❤🖤
When are we going to put our feet down and hold these people accountable??!!!! It makes me so angry hearing all these horrible cases of the system failing these children and it resulting in their deaths! Annie you rock, bring these cases to light! People need to hear this stuff is happening and get loud about it!
I think part of the problem is that CPS is a blob monster with 5000 heads. Good people are mixed in with the bad people, there is never enough funding, the workers are given the support they need, everything is hidden due to "child privacy" protections, there are different departments in every state, and the culture is to try everything possible to keep kids with their biological parents because parents have "rights" that are not taken away until it is so egregious and ongoing that hope is lost.
Nobody can get any information, the police either can't or don't help, and the justice system is not holding parents accountable. In this case alone, there are multiple times when they let the parents go free, despite the fact that they don't show up for court, don't pass drug tests or get treatment, and are repeat offenders. I suspect there is also a great deal of corruption, because bribing CPS to not take your kids away seems like easy math to a lot of parents.
If the movement to end police brutality is any example, we will still be angry and horrified about how the children are treated in another 20 years. We all need to push and support massive change, but nobody has a clue where to even start.
Evelyn have you ever heard of CASA?
When you said Oakley told the Hiles “it’s okay, grownups come back” I LOST IT. This baby was failed in every way possible. This is unacceptable beyond reason. Wherever you are Oakley, we will not forget you.
Same! 😢
Yes, even reading your words makes me teary again ...
Also the video of her describing abuse 💔
I had to take a break for the night after that.
Exactly! This case had me in tears multiple times. So sad. Baby Oakley didn’t deserve this… the Hiles were the best thing that ever happened to her. Poor angel baby…
@@vanessacecil2203 I did too at some points.. it’s hard to hear. I wish the worst on those POS “parents”.
I've shared. CPS dropped the ball big time. I can't imagine raising an infant, and then having her stripped away to go back to parents who are clearly still using. It's heartbreaking.
The way this was handled is absolutely disgusting!! Who knows how often this happens 😢
As a Mom...my heart just breaks a little everytime I hear one of these stories. Both of my kiddos came to us through adoption and...ugh. I just can't even imagine going through this.
Me too
I’m happy to hear there are good ones! It’s frightening and heartbreaking hearing this baby girl was taken from a family who loved her, and whom she loved!
I can’t imagine going back to my biological mother and the trauma that would bring. I don’t know how I wasn’t taken from her to begin with and why someone had to buy me off her
This case has always broken my heart... Oakley was removed her loving HOME, the only true home and parents she ever knew, and they ripped her away to be put back into abuse and now she's gone... It's vile
This case is so incredibly similar to what we’re dealing with right now with my grandchildren. Reunification set for June 1st. I haven’t had a moment of peace since court
May God be with you. I pray for your grandchildren.
Prayers for you 🙏 💔
Prayers 🙏🙏🙏🙏
This poor child was let down by just about everyone. If she’d been left with her foster parents she’d would have been safe and happy.
As a former foster parent I saw things like this happen far too often. We would have continued to foster but for the caseworkers and system. IMHO There’s a shortage of foster parents because of the treatment and lack of help from the agencys and the trauma we see and face with these horrible situations. I could tell you so many stories…😢😡😭😠
I have thought of fostering but I won't due to this. I would be fuming if a baby was taken from me and put back in a horrific situation. And to have no control over it. I am sure that is why there is a shortage.
@@AbsyntheAndTears exactly!! There are so many potential families that don’t because of things like this. One story… I had a beautiful, beautiful little baby in my home. The judge decided to keep all of her siblings in foster care “they had been abused” …but because the young baby hadn’t been abused… Yet… They gave the baby back to the mom. I got a phone call a couple of weeks later asking “if I wanted my baby back”. And I asked the social worker where is she? I was told “in the hospital brain-damaged a vegetable for life”!! The judge only left the mom one punching bag! This tiny baby!! I can’t even explain my outrage and heartbreak!!
@@AbsyntheAndTearsand they’d absolutely do this again and again.
Reunification takes precedence over anyone who is fostering.
It’s maddening and it should newer happen.
They have blood on their hands and will continue to until a massive change comes and it doesn’t seem to be coming at this rate.
How many more children have to die bc they can’t admit they’re in the wrong!
I have always wanted to be a foster parent. Some of the horror stories I have heard. If they ever took a child from me to put them back in danger ... lord help them........
I’m from the area of the state she is, and so many people I know personally know her. I highly believe her parents know exactly where she is. Thank you for covering this.
I believe so too
This seems all to familiar to so many horrifying stories.
I had to look twice when I saw your name, I thought at first it was my daughter who was commenting.
@@Sunflowers__5 right? I’m from Aberdeen, and have personally dealt with the dshs (cps) she’s mentioning because of some not so great people. There is so much being hidden/not done in the court and cps system.
@@jordandavis4515 it’s truly sickening. And I don’t believe CPS is doing their job in most cities all across America. Continuing to fail children and the result is death. There needs to be a complete overhaul of the system!! And each social worker should know they would have charges of accessory to the crimes committed against any child they fail to protect.
I believe that could help them pull their heads out of their a$$e$ and do their job!!
The lifetime of trauma the siblings are facing is almost as heart wrenching as Oakley not having a future to face. I hope for her siblings that life improves and role models are in place for guidance they will need. I'm from Washington and ashamed over this case and what happened yet proud of the obvious out pour of love for Oakley and her parents the parents that deserve the title. Love needs to become and stay a verb an action word not adjective it needs action behind it not just empty description used by anyone who feels the moment.
Great coverage of this heartbreaking story. No matter what happened to that sweet girl her biological parents are covering it up.
It kills me to think about how horrible some children's lives are. These poor children 😔
I feel exactly the same it heartbreaking what some children have to endure at the hands of people who are supposed to love them the most 😢
This shatters my heart. Jamie tried so so hard to save her but the system is just RIDICULOUS!! my thoughts and prayers to Jamie and her husband and oakleys siblings 🙏 ❤️
I’m half way through I can’t take anymore what a devastatingly sad story. The system failed this little girl.
This breaks my heart , however, even here in CA , CPS is broken . Period, there will be no changing my mind on that. I myself attempted to jump thru massive hoops to foster , and eventually my husband and I gave up . I’ve seen kids returned to parents after clear signs to not return them , and within days those kids were significantly injured . CPS needs to be completely rebuilt
This is a nationwide problem, not just in CA.
Everything in CA is broken. There is a reason that everyone is fleeing that forsaken state.
I'm so sorry I've commented like 4 times, but one last thing to say- Jamie and her husband deserve so much praise and respect. There's so much in this case to comment on that is infuriating, but they deserve to be recognized for the way that they fought and advocated for Oakley. I can't imagine the helplessness they must have felt, and the emotions they have endured through this trauma. Wishing them the best
No they don't. They're just as selfish as the bio parents. They wanted to adopt Oakley and were never supportive of the actual parents. They wanted them to fail. I'm sure they didn't have anything good to say to her about her bio parents. Then they start fostering her brother and then get rid of him??? That's beyond selfish.
@@awkwardautistic I understand as a recovering addict myself, that addicts are people too. But I also understand that drugs and trauma ruin people to their core. Some become very bad people beyond the drugs. Just because someone is a biological parent, doesn’t mean they deserve to have custody of them. A LOT times it’s a true blessing to not be raised by addicted toxic dangerous mom and dads.
@@pinkdonut26 Well yeah ..obviously you can't be a good parent if you're in active addiction. I wasn't saying the kids should have been given back to them...I was saying that these foster parents seem like they were set on adopting the child and even if the parents had gotten clean I think they would have fought to keep her.
Annie, I just want to thank you for sharing your post partum story. Not only do I have so much more respect for you, but I’m so proud to count myself as part of your posse.❤
This was so triggering for me, yet it’s these very personal cases that I have a need to listen to. There is something inside me that feels that the suffering I endured so young at the hands of my mother and the system that failed me, makes me feel like the least I can do is listen to these stories. To hold them in my heart, to acknowledge the pain and suffering they endured and to care about them. It’s hard to explain. It hurts to know how often this is still happening. It has been decades for me and I still see so much repeated offenses by the very system that is supposed to help these babies& children. 💔
I'm so sry what happened to you,the systems really needs change.may God bless you sweetheart ❤️my prayers are with you 🙏
Best line EVER at 47:44. "Clink, clink".
You've outdone yourself with this tragic story. That innocent, precious baby 😮💨. Jaimie and her husband deserves angel wings for trying.
I will never understand the decisions made in these cases. This poor baby has no control of anything and their lives are literally in the hands of people who don’t seem to care what is actually best for them.
You’re amazing Annie! THREE days in a row?!? We don’t deserve you 😩 thank you for all the case coverage.
Yes, don’t overwork yourself in this dark land-I hope you are getting happy breaks! ❤
It's still not enough for me 🥺 I'm selfish 😞 BUT I am thankful! She brightens my whole daysss 🤗😁
@@bunnbihhh2391 I feel that way sometimes too 🤣 I’m just addicted to true crime! That’s why I follow like 10 true crime content creators 😅 and on the podcasts I follow like 20 different similar accounts. As bad as it sounds, I cannot get enough true crime lol!
this story is devastating. . . . i can't say here the words i have for these bio "parents..." a very similiar thing happened in my area, the sweet little boy ripped from his foster mommy fighting and crying from terror as he was handed to bio "mom" and he was horrifically tortured to death less than 2 weeks later! sickening! the system is broken.
Y’all, this story is LITERALLY my beautiful adopted granddaughter’s story except ours ended well, after $30k and a private lawyer,thank the Lord😭😭😭 this just breaks my heart..what about the kids that don’t have people rallying behind them to protect them??
God bless you and yours as you raise your precious grandchild.
I went through this year's ago. I had my niece from birth to 1 year old. They placed her back with her parents and fast forward 15 years later. I now have her back and I am her guardian. I also learned of all the he## she went through. This time she is here to stay.
I’m so sorry 😢 I hope you two heal together
You are an amazing aunt and your niece is so lucky to have you in her life!!! 🩶
Good luck to your family! I'm glad she has you 🥰😇
Glad she's staying with you, terribly sorry for all she went through
Yeah that's how the system works. Leaves children in horrible homes because they are with the biological parents. Now child has years of trauma that can't be reversed. Horrible, there needs to be change.
I’m so tired of hearing about these babies being ignored by CPS and DCS and then going missing or ending up dead. I’m sick of it.
Same
This is not the only story like this out of Washington State. It seems more like the standard operating procedures for the state. From my experience of adopting out of the foster care system (we adopted 4), California is just as bad in different ways, ways that would make you sick. I pray the people who truly love her find closure. I truly hurt for the adoptive Mom & Dad.
I have a little boy in my class right now that I just know something bad is going on at home. I report every little thing I can but it’s never good enough. Nothing ever gets him the help he needs. 😭
To this day I think about Oakley all the time, along with all the other little ones who have gone missing these past few years. I hope her loving foster parents get the peace and closure they deserve, and her birth parents get the karma they deserve.
I use to be a foster care worker. I am livid! That poor girl, and someone somewhere has to make the workers, and the parents, accountable for all of this.
Thank you our community is heart broken over how her life has gone. We are also angry with our state for not doing their job and protecting this beautiful child.. We want/need Oakleys bill to pass. 2 years since a credible sighting of this baby.
My daughter lives in Aberdeen and she said the only reason these ppl haven't been unalived because ppl want answers but she's heard about many groups that want to lynch these ppl!!
Omg I was a foster parent in a neighboring county. And let me tell you Cps is not in the best interest of those babies. All they are worried about is getting them out of their system. Man I can tell you some stories I dealt with while I was a foster parent for several years. I been keeping track of this case. Thank you for bringing light to this case.
Just wanted to add I think her biological parents were so strung out they they did something really bad. And then covered it up.
I KNOW!!!! The whole state is a joke! Inslee definitely isn’t helping this state! Of and I’m in Pierce County and work in Tumwater. This is just horrible!!! They were just trying to get this case off their books. Lighten their load especially during COVID!
The systems are far too soft on these crappy parents, but it’s a fine line when taking children away for their biological parents. These parents didn’t want to do any of the work to get their kids back. Oakley should have been immediately adopted after the first incident. This case is so sad.
It sucks because they are way too hard on the parents that are working to do the right thing and working hard or the parents that don’t even deserve their children taken away to begin with but too soft on the parents that are doing NOTHING right and not even trying to get clean. Make it make sense!!! 😢
Yes! Especially since she stayed with the hiles 2 years anways. Why take a child who has been raised completely by another family, and put them in the hands of their sketchy parents just because they're biological? It makes NO sense!
Maybe there should be a time limit on how long the parents have to truly prove they are able to be good parents.
I feel in the best interest of the child, if you as a parent lose your INFANT at 7mos old, that child no longer has a bond with u, nor the parents with the child. Ages 7mos until 2yo? That is VITAL bonding time. The best interest of this child was ALWAYS to have just stayed with the ONLY family you knew.
I know this may sound harsh, but if you're a parent and you mess up (it happens, I'm not saying I'm anything near perfect bc I'm not) and lose your child as an infant and said child is with another family the entire time, leave the child where they are. That is your fault and the repercussions you should expect.
Should the parents get clean, you could allow them to eventually build a relationship and the child can get to know her biological parents , but to remove a child who has only known 2 people as their parents- it is severely damaging to the child to uproot everything they know at 2yo and do that.
Yes people make mistakes, and sometimes after we make mistakes the aftermath is not what we may prefer, but nonetheless it's a result of your own actions and therefore take responsibility and deal with it.
I'm convinced a large part of this is bc the bio parents didn't have a bond with Oakley as much as she didn't with them... she never should have gone back to that house and my heart aches for her REAL parents Jamie and Eric...
@@kmead82_1 I LOVED your comment, and totally agree. It needs to be what's best for the child, from any viewpoint. Remember that story from the bible (I think?) about the two women who came to a king because they both claimed the baby was theirs and needed the king to settle it? The king decided to cut the baby in half, so each woman would get a part of the child. One woman agreed, and the other woman said "NO! She can have the baby." And the king knew that the woman who protested the child being cut in half was the real mother, because the love of that mom wanted the BEST FOR THE CHILD, ahead of her wants. Real loving parents need to sacrifice for the well being of the child.
@PurpleKittyKelly I do remember that story! Didn't realize it was from the Bible but yes and it makes 100% sense. Doing what's right, is most often not what we'd prefer.. being the bigger person and truly looking beyond your OWN self/needs and putting someone else's wellbeing before your ego/image is the act of real selflessness and genuine love.
“Grownups come back. Just like in the Daniel Tiger song.” That hits me so so hard. My toddler loves Daniel Tiger, and that’s one of the songs I’ll sing to her if she gets upset about daddy going to work. That sweet baby girl. This is maddening! DCYF literally set her up to be failed miserably! My heart breaks for Oakley and the Hiles.
I love that you said don’t come for me about how you’d rob a pharmacy to get what you needed for your children to save their lives… trust me, any parent who would do anything for their kid would say the same. Don’t worry we got your back lol
So excited that you covered this one Annie! I live in the state capitol and am going to the rally for Oakley today. She deserves justice, love, and all of our support. It's heartbreaking
On behalf of all of us who are holding little Oakley in our hearts from around the world, thank you for attending her rally. I can't be the only one who would love to go but is prevented by geography. It does my heart good to see that people in her area are still fighting for her.
Thank you for showing up for Oakley!❤ Sending you lots of love and support 🙏❤
I can't imagine how Oakley's siblings must have felt and are feeling about all this... that is so absolutely horrifying and heartbreaking. I truly do not understand how these biological parents seem to neither want Oakley to be placed in a loving functional foster home, nor do they want to take their own responsibility and do the bare minimum as a parent... Just heartbreaking and infuriating
Yes, criminal act, not accidental! This was one of your best sessions.
I could see and hear how much it hurt.
Prayers to you
also!
So true, the system failed this child and her foster parents. Thank you for sharing. God bless you!
This case is discusting! I can't believe no one cared. How have these parents not been charged! They were responsible. I cannot even imagine. As a mother myself, my heart breaks for everyone who truly loves Oakley.
Agreed. No one cared other than Oakleys foster family. They truly loved and worried for her. I can’t imagine how helpless they must have felt.
Yes, we need Oakley’s law to pass so badly!!!
This situation is absolutely appalling; I feel sick to my stomach. The parents deserve to rot in prison the rest of there pathetic lives at the very least. The case workers should be criminally charged as well for they are complicit in this child's death. It was truly heartbreaking to see that video of her knowing the outcome.
My heart hurts after hearing her explain the hitting. She speaks just like my 3.5 year old and I cannot imagine having to hear that as her parent
So broken hearted for the foster parents. 💔 Hoping that Oakley is found and gets justice.
Cant imagine
My (now) little brother was tied up with DCYF in that very same county back in 2008-2010. Thankfully, he was placed with and stayed with our loving, supportive family and is now a happy, healthy, thriving teenager. A 14 yr old 6 foot giant teddy bear 😄 it gives me anxiety to think just how close to being in very real danger he actually was. They really could have just decided to not do their jobs. We’re so lucky.
I could literally just cry listening to you tell this story. I am holding back tears at work. Just so sad. Those poor babies 😢😢 WHY AREN'T THOSE MONSTERS BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE?!?
This case fu**s me up so much. My 2 oldests are in their 20s and on their own and my 2 youngest are almost 18 but everytime I hear about the 6 year old saying she missed her sister so much my heart just bleeds for all those babies. Thank you for covering this, Annie. I love your approach to telling cases like this. It's real, and the way I think I'd tell it too. I just can't with scumbag parents.
As a foster parent I personally know the heartache of a child you have loved and cared for being placed back in the care of parents who were abusing/neglecting them and not knowing if they are going back to a safe place. Biological parents are given so many chances to right themselves before the children are removed. When all else fails the children are placed in foster care. Often when children are placed back in the parents care they are never checked on again. It doesn’t seem possible but it’s the honest truth. All you can do is pray they are safe and well🙏🏻
This video made me so angry at DCYS. I’m literally crying and I’m only half done with the video. I can’t 😢😢 I’m just so devastated for Oakley and her REAL mommy and daddy. It is insane that this happened I’m so upset this shit happens!!!
'if you get angry about people caring about the welfare of you're child, you're the problem'
I needed to hear that. Reported behavior that made me uncomfortable to cps and the family cut me out of their lives.
I live in Elma Washington, it neighbors Oakville, same county. I see Oakley's posters EVERY DAY, they are all over our town, this case angers and frustrates me SO MUCH, I wish I could hope for a good outcome in this case, if she was sold that would mean a possibility that she could be reunited with her foster parents (you know, her REAL parents), but I think at this point it is pretty obvious that she is no longer living and that fact angers me to no end! DCFS is broken, they hound foster parents who are doing a GOOD JOB and allow bad parents to litterally get away with murdering their children, even facilitating it when they return children to horrible biological parents. Something needs to change.
What Jessica did was actually a really smart move. Instead of calling the mother out in a phone call or text and alerting her that she knows something is up she instead said the girls were having so much fun and asked if she could stay another night and kept her out of harms way. Plus, I feel like if the girl went back home after her mother and father found out she said that about Oakley then she would have been more than likely abused for it in some way 🥺
My mom worked for years in an inner-city preschool during the height of the crack epidemic. She was a mandated reporter, and would fight for these babies. One year three children that graduated to kindergarten had been put back with their families and by Christmas they had been kill either by or from the neglect of their parents. She resigned after that. It was too heartbreaking for her.
I can't imagine having to deal with that. It's just heartbreaking. Your poor mom...and those poor little kids. 😥
@@zxy78267 oh yeah that was a rough year for her, and it was always really sad to hear something awful happened with the kids at that school. Some of those kids being at the day care was the only gentle hands and hearts. All the staff there were really special people. I hope it remained that way and still runs with that same love of children
Omg how horrible 😭
I don’t think I’ve ever cried over a case… “adults always come back” took me out. As a mom of a toddler I can’t imagine
I've been following this case and Kyron Horman's since the information was released to the public. I hope they can be found, whether alive or dead (hopefully ALIVE!!) for their families, or at least the family members that actually care about them. Thank you for putting out a video about her, so that her story can be heard all over the US and the world. I live in WA state, and don't know if people outside this state had heard about her disappearance. Ty ty ty!!!
Heart breaking that the foster parents cared and advocated for her so much, yet her own biological parents couldn’t care more.
All 4 of those parents were selfish.
"The couple didn’t hesitate, especially because they were under the impression they might ultimately be able to adopt her."
They wanted to the bio parents to fail.
@@awkwardautistic Well yeah, they knew the bio parents were addicts so the adoptive parents would be the obvious best choice.
@@AL3XTR0NiK Just because they were addicts doesn't mean they couldn't get clean.
This is absolutely disgusting and sickening that there were so many red flags and they literally put her back in the hands of her biological parents. Completey irresponsible. This makes me sick and breaks my heart. I COMPLETEY blame DCYF or whatever they’re called. These services need to GET IT TOGETHER!!!
It’s like they didn’t care at all. They just wanted to close the case. Oakley meant nothing to those workers.
@@laikanbarth it’s sick how could people working for cps do this shit? And the sad part is it happens all the time
Our system here in WA does not care about how the parents are at all. Everyone’s hands are tied that’s why the social worker didn’t seem to care much. Just as long as the “parents” are doing the least amount possible they are “fit” to get their kids back due to the laws they passed.
So sad that they failed this poor baby. I’m fairly certain the girl missed her foster parents and talked about them alot that it annoyed the birth parents. The Hiles are amazing people and I’m glad they continue to keep her story alive.
This story about Oakley is similar to Summer Wells!! The parents know what happened!! It’s so heartbreaking & infuriating to hear about abused, neglected or murdered children especially at the hands of their own parents!!!!
I check daily to see any updates on summer wells 😢
@@tigercub13 You have a giant, compassionate heart. We'd definitely be friends. Keep being you.
Social worker here, this case brings me to tears. If we had our way, so many babies and kids would have better lives. I've fielded phone calls from DCFS in which we cry over a baby being returned to a home where she wouldn't be protected. I can understand SWs checking out and relaxing on their duties, but to the extent that a child is returned to a dangerous situation?? This system is SO broken.
Why would you cry about a baby being returned to a home where they won’t be protected instead of ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
@Katy Mcgee hi thanks for responding. Because the judge made the call. Despite the DCFS caseworker pleading to the court. Ordered the file with DCFS closed. In my particular agency we are voluntary and I cannot contact a family about a child. Even if I could, I had no contact info for the bio family and DCFS could not release it. That's why I couldn't do anything about it.
@Lemon Lime depends on the state, they all have different procedures. I believe in IL we have a hotline to the DCFS director. Against certain a caseworker, reporting to the director of the local agency is a good place to start. I'm in Early Intervention so we are not DCFS, but we work alongside them for kiddos who are in state custody. If I have a problem with a particular caseworker I'm able to go to our liasion who works with my director to get things resolved.
My heart broke when Oakley left the hyles for the last time, not knowing that she would not be going back! That poor baby.
Such a tragic story. I am in the UK and over here too child and social services are totally under resourced , underfunded and understaffed. Totally broken. So many awful stories of kids not being protected.
The attorney General in WA is as corrupt as the governor. This story breaks my heart. I've seen the lack of concern that cps shows when children are in danger and it's truly beyond frustrating. Thank you Annie for bringing awareness to Oakley's case.
So true
Agreed.
So frustrating that the foster parents tried to get help multiple times….
I literally have been watching Child Protection Service stories since 1991 when we went through the Houston Texas foster parent and adoption classes.
I’ve NEVER once seen a success story. CPS fails children every time.
It makes me so mad that they never ever wanted this little girl but yet they took her away from the family that loved her so much. And I firmly believe that they did that because they couldn't stand that she was so happy with the family that she was with and that they loved her so much and that she probably came back talking about how she missed them and loved them and they started right there abusing her because of that all the way until her bitter end. It's just so so very sad how people can harm their children. I'll never for the life of me understand
Agreed. Jordan and Andrew didn’t have her for very long before she got taken into CPS custody and they were on drugs the whole time they had her so I’m sure they didn’t do much bonding with her as a baby. And then when she came back and talked about how much she loved and missed the Hiles, it probably made them resent her and since they never bonded with her they started abusing her and eventually killed her.
Coming up on the 4 year anniversary of my daughter passing away and knowing I would have done everything to keep her alive, this story kills me.
I'm so sorry for your loss 💜🙏💜🙏💜
My son’s 5 year is tomorrow 😢I’m so sorry for your loss 🙏🏼💔
My heart goes out to you both.
@@sherrykrause3410 thank you so much for your kindness ❤️
God, please keep you both in his strength and love. I am so sorry 😞 for your loss.
I'm so glad you mentioned Andrew having been a cop potentially contributing to his current freedom. Exactly what I was thinking throughout this. I'd guess that because he's a cop, and because of how immensely the entire system fuxked this up, that the state is willing to protect him in order to protect themselves and their reputation
My son loves the grown ups come back song. That tore my heart wide open. Man. This case really boils my blood!
