I apologize, too, for the few who take it upon themselves to judge you based on a couple internet articles, lack of knowledge of the legal system and terminology, and excess trust in a system that can all too easily turn into a Kafkaesque nightmare. People who make mistakes in their rush to judgement are all too often unwilling to subsequently admit mistakes, instead covering them up and doubling down on accusations and threats. Personally, I tangle with "authorities" only when forced to, and then with huge caution.
The only advice I can offer is to be phenomenally patient, don't give them *any* ammunition to use against you, keep as low a profile as you can, and try to slide through this nightmare like water permeates granite. Unless, of course, they overreach to the point that you can threaten to sue their asses off. It takes time, but in time the truth will out.
You mentioned there was a divorce in process. Maybe once that happens, CPS will feel sufficiently "in control" to back off a bit.
If you are not working, perhaps you can find work in a neighboring state and start rebuilding there. That is, if CPS will allow you and your children to leave?
