  A school employee apparently fabricated a story and your child had an
obvious bruise.  A school reporting a child with suspicous injuries
happens all the time.  So, I'm not surprised that child protective
services got involved.

Now, this has what again to do with something growing on someone elses
property that MIGHT be marijuana?   If that's all it takes, wouldn't
all the parents living in drug infested neighborhoods have their
children removed on the notion that the parents should be calling in
drug reports of who's selling dope on the streets and doing something
to stop it?     Don't see that happening do you?
