Republicans defend Arkansas rep who ‘rehomed’ adopted girls with a rapist

6. But..but...DEMONS made him do it!!

Harris adopted the children in the first place over the strenuous objections of the therapeutic foster families with whom they had first been placed. The foster families felt that the Harrises did not have the necessary experience and training to deal with children who had been so severely traumatized in their family of origin. They also felt that the busy outside commitments and presence of male children in the home would not be good. They allege that Harris pressured the director of the Department of Children's Services (whose budget he partially controls) to override their recommendations and place the girls with the Harrises. The Harrises later attributed their inability to parent the girls effectively to the girls' being possessed by demons, which is one reason they got rid of them. They caused so much unnecessary disruption and trauma to kids who had already been through so much abuse. As bad as this is , what is even worse is that this freak and his wife run a preschool!
