A malicious and defamatory ACS report was filed against me by a crooked woman named Margo Esbrand, a caseworker from an organization called, The Women’s Prison Association (WPA), alleging that I was diagnosed with a “personality disorder” that required medication management and that I was not taking such alleged medication and was therefor “mentally unable” to take care of my son. WPA further stated that I was abusing drugs and that I was attending a counseling center called “Interborough” for therapy but that I did not follow through with my treatment plan and had not been there since May 1st, 2018. WPA further stated that I would display erratic behavior by “threatening” the staff at Interborough. 

On July 7th, 2018, ACS files a pre-petition at Kings County Family Court as a result of the defamatory report made by WPA, in order to obtain access to my son. My son was seen by ACS that same day after I met with the Director of ACS in Manhattan to confirm that there was in fact, an active report. ACS found no safety concerns and withdrew the pre-petition shortly after.

Facts proving defamation on WPA’s behalf: — (Flashback) A few months before WPA’s report, on December 28th, 2017, I attended a conference with them. In the conference, it was agreed that I did have a stable home with my son, that I did follow through with his medical appointments, that I was attending a place called, Community Counseling & Mediation (CCM) for counseling (Not “Interborough”), and that I did comply with random drug screenings. This conference agreement was signed by WPA that same day.

On November 29th, 2017, I provided a random drug test to WPA. I tested negative for all drugs. It is the only drug test I provided for WPA as I was never asked to provide another screening after that.

WPA was also aware that my ex partner and the father of my son had a long history of abuse towards me that was still on-going, and maliciously provided his contact information to ACS so that he could provide false information about me to further slander the ACS report against me. WPA intentionally did not provide the contact information of a supportive family member who was at the time active in my life and my son’s such as my sister.

The emotional distress and the reputational damage that the defamatory report caused me demands justice and accountability. I do not give consent or permission to any entity to weaponize mental health against me in order to cause me harm in any way. I filed a lawsuit for this at Kings County Civil Court and WPA failed to appear in court despite being properly served.

I have tried to reach WPA’s CEO for comment and I have not received a response.
