Hands To Heaven

The Missing Children

Carla Steele
I had been noticing that I was being followed and I thought that reporting my stalker to the authorities would help. I made a huge mistake in my choice of reporting it to the police. It turned out my stalker was the chief of police and he didn't even blink an eye when he had my four children taken away by CPS and we were left alone he wasted no time in assuring my fate. I knew I was going to die at his hands. He used one of Rays gutting knives and cut my carotid artery first. All I thought of was my husband and family suffering from this horrible persons deeds after he killed me. Chief Louis Ramsey was someone you didn't cross. I had turned him down and he started stalking me, I had just never known he was the chief of police because we lived on the outskirts of Montesano. We never had any contact with the police for any reasons.

Whoever killed Carla took our children away from us. It was done on the same day she was murdered using my gutting knives. I am a hunter and it was deer season. I had put them out where I could use them for the deer I had shot and was bringing home to gut and get ready to freeze for later meals. I saw the knives and Carla's body and suddenly the front door flew open and cops were all over me and I was being arrested for murder of my wife and children. I didn't see my children or their bodies anywhere. I was found guilty of all five murders in no time at all. There was no doubt that I was railroaded and the attorney that I had was part of all of the railroading. I can't seem to get anyone to hear my story. It is like I can't get Justice at all. I can't believe that I am in prison for something that I didn't do.

CPS Worker Ashley Jensen
I am given a court order to go puck up four children from their daycare and place them in emergency foster care. I look at the pictures of said children and I see the doctored photos and the last name. I also see Chief Ramsey had a hand in this and I don't like it, but I have no choice but to follow my orders. I pick up Lyle, Anastasia, Annabelle and Roger Steele. They were resistant to coming with us but they are picked up and placed in the car seats, these children are well cared for and even the childcare worker told me that. She took photos of the children before handing them over to me and then documented my taking the children and made me sign for each of them. She wrote down any scrape or bruise on each of them prior to making me sign the descriptions of each child. Constance Eldridge and Dawn ran a tight ship and I had no idea they had video cameras recording everything. This came up in the appeal process of mr Steele's new trial. The new trial was moved to a new jurisdiction. It was moved to Seattle along with all the evidence against him. Sadly his children were adopted according to the records again Chief Ramsey had a hand in the children's disappearance. No one found the children or the couples who adopted them. Chief Ramsey had that kind of power. I moved out of that town after I picked up the Steele children. I am now a CPS worker in Seattle and I go by the laws not by a bully who wants what he can't have. I have been called as a witness and evidence against mr Steele was non existent. He was soon released from prison after three years. His home was being take care of by an old military group of his. They were the ones who got him the appeal and a great attorney Carrick Grey. The sad thing is, is that his four children were so well hidden we can't find them. I did my best, but even though Chief Ramsey is behind bars now, he refuses to say where the children are. I was never called to his first trial and neither was the childcare people. His attorney has been brought up on charges as well. I can't get my records from Montesano, but mr Grey got them. Chief Ramsey is being charged with a lot of different things. He won't see daylight in this lifetime. A special prosecutor is appointed to oversee the Chief's case here in Seattle. A Montesano jury would find him not guilty and he is very guilty. He wields that much power there. They are shaking up the whole judicial system down there at this point. Investigators are going through everything especially anything involving Ramsey. It will take years.

Carrick
I am looking at this massive box of evidence against mr Raymond Steele. If you can call it a massive box, it has very little evidence in it. I think we have a huge problem here. I open the box and inside is a tiny folder with sheets of paperwork that give folder names and numbers only and I have been hoodwinked yet again by the Chief of police in Montesano. I have to request each individual file. There's like two thousand folders. Talk about wallpapering my office. Each has to have a formal request. This guy covered his tracks with file folders up the ass. Who knows the time it will take to get these files. I call a friend and they resolve the issues immediately and all the files are provided to me overnight. My office looked like a maze of cardboard boxes. I have interns glint through everything looking for pertinent evidence along with where the children were placed. We know they are alive someplace just not where. Miss Jensen is going to testify on behalf of mr Steele.
