Florida DCF Accused of Misleading Court, Targeting Nonprofit Watchdog

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - July 6, 2025 - PRLog -- WEST PALM BEACH, FL — The Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) is under fire after one of its Child Protective Investigators submitted a sworn court affidavit mischaracterizing a legally registered nonprofit as "a series of social media accounts." The nonprofit, Corruption Interruption, has filed formal complaints, calling the statements not only false but part of a broader effort to suppress lawful civic engagement.

In the affidavit, DCF investigator Alnisha Huggins stated that founder Justin Hair "runs multiple social media platforms under the name Corruption Interruption" and referenced past legal issues without context. Notably:

• The fleeing and eluding charge cited was nolle prosequi (dismissed).
• The sole conviction referenced is a misdemeanor for resisting without violence (2022).
• Most critically, Corruption Interruption is a legally registered Florida nonprofit, pending federal 501(c)(3) status.

"This was not a mere oversight—it was a willful and material misstatement in a sworn affidavit, intended to mischaracterize lawful First Amendment activity and weaponize the child welfare system against protected civic engagement," said Hair. "We have submitted over 25 pages of legal argument, statutory authority, and documentary evidence exposing this abuse of process, and we will continue to seek full accountability through every appropriate legal channel."

Key Allegations Against DCF:

• False and misleading statements in sworn testimony
• Weaponization of child welfare investigations against dissenters
• Retaliation against those exercising civic oversight
• Violations of privacy and agency policy

Formal complaints have been filed with the Florida Office of Inspector General, Attorney General, and Chief Inspector General.

Demands for Accountability:

• Correct the public record regarding the nonprofit's legal status
• Withdraw all prejudicial statements from official filings
• End retaliatory investigations targeting dissent
• Reaffirm its duty to integrity, fairness, and due process
