Food Network Star Denied Bail in Murder Case of Foster Care Victim Victoria Rose Smith
The little girl must have cried her heart out at the pain being inflicted on her but these heartless black monsters must have ignored that. How could they?
Victoria Smith
Winner of Food Network’s America’s Worst Cook, Ariel Robinson and her husband were denied bail on Friday in the death of Greenville, Alabama Department of Social Services (DSS) ward Victoria Rose Smith.
Earlier news reports and the DSS had claimed that Smith was adopted by the Robinsons, who were both arrested for her murder but that turned out to be false. DSS was in custody of Smith at the time of her death and the biological family alleges that they never bothered to check on Smith and her brothers who were in the care of abusers.
Fox reported the gruesome details that emerged at the bond hearing about how the three-year-old toddler died.
The toddler suffered from extensive injuries, including deep purple bruising on her abdomen, bruising on her ear, abrasions on her face, bruising down her back, and bruising up and down both legs after her death on January 14, prosecutors told the judge. The coroner ruled that the child died from blunt force trauma, but prosecutors said Ariel had told first responders she believed the girl had drowned from drinking too much water.
Prosecutors revealed during the hearing that Ariel claimed Victoria, referred to as Tori, was having stomach issues after eating something and then drinking several cups of water. Ariel claims the child suddenly went limp and that she began attempting to perform the Heimlich maneuver on the child, fearing that she was choking. Ariel also claimed she started pressing on the girl’s stomach, which likely caused the bruising to the abdomen, as she asked Jerry to call 911.
When asked about the bruises to the other parts of Tori’s body, Ariel reportedly told them that the child’s 7-year-old brother, who was also in the Robinson’s care along with another sibling, hand anger issues and caused those injuries. Prosecutors said they asked the boy’s principal if the child boy had anger issues, and the principal reportedly told them he was a happy child who never showed any outward signs of aggression.
PJ Media reported that DSS had stonewalled the biological family that wanted custody of the body in order to bury her. After much public pressure, DSS relented and allowed the biological family and former foster parents to bury the child.
If the justice system was fair, DSS would be under arrest and on trial as well as the Robinsons for their role in this child’s death. It was DSS that placed her with the Robinsons in the first place with what seems like very little investigation into who they were. The family spokesperson Michelle Urps told PJ Media that the family believes DSS was negligent in Smith’s death.
We are standing firm that we do not feel proper vetting of this family was done. Clearly, there was some psychological testing that could have found she was not going to be a fit parent as well as we have discovered that their home was put into foreclosure the month [the children] were placed in their home.
Due to COVID-19 the foreclosure had not been finalized. We also found out that when they were moved into this home they had only known them for two hours. There were two one-hour visists with [the Robinsons] and then they were moved into the home.
The family wants DSS investigated. Unfortunately, the only thing that will happen—if history teaches us anything—is DSS will conduct its own “investigation” into itself and will find no wrongdoing. There is no other agency that supervises social services but the Department of Health and Human Services, which is the same cast of characters that all operate on the same budget. They are neither objective nor independent. A true investigation should be done by US Marshals or a police force that is not connected to the state budget.
This is the real issue with America’s child welfare system. The fox is guarding the hen house and no one has any motivation to change it. It is likely the American public will never see the file on Smith and what actions DSS took or what evidence they had to remove her from her mother and put her in the care of the Robinsons, where she died a horrific death. The government allows DSS to keep all their files on children, even dead ones, a secret from the public. They claim this is for the privacy of the child. When the child dies, all concerns of privacy should be moot.
The only way for this family to get any answers is to sue DSS and get discovery which would force open the internal documents to scrutiny. This is very expensive. Attorney Shawn McMillan, who has successfully sued child services all over California to the tune of millions of dollars, needs a $10,000 retainer just to take a case. The costs go up from there. There are very few families targeted by DSS who have that kind of money. On the contrary, most victims of DSS are living at or below the poverty level which is what alerted DSS to their family in the first place. In America, being poor is often confused with “neglect.”
Instead of helping families, social services rip them apart. Families that do try to raise funds to fight DSS are labeled by the DSS attorneys as “attention-seeking” and their efforts are used against them in court to prove they are bad parents.
These are the lost families of America who have no hope of recovering their children or seeking justice because our justice system is set up to punish the poor by disallowing access to the remedies they need to fight for their rights. McMillan’s cases prove that when a family has access to DSS records they find falsified warrants, false allegations, cover-ups, and corruption that leads to families being destroyed and lives lost.

Race-faker Rachel Dolezal who now goes by African name Nkechi Amare Diallo says she hasn't been able to find a job in SIX years after being exposed
Race faker Rachel Dolezal has claimed she has been unable to find a job over the past six years after it was revealed that she was a white woman pretending to be black.
Dolezal, 43, told TV host Tamron Hall that even after changing her name to Nkechi Amare Diallo - a West African way of saying 'gift from the gods' – in 2017, she is still recognized and never gets past the interview stage.
The former NAACP leader, who says she still sees herself as black, claimed it has been 'really tough' and that she wishes 'people could see me more for who I am than the what'.
Even after moving to Tucson, Arizona, last year where her teenage son was going to college, the single mother-of-three said she has been forced to 'create my own job and find my own ways to provide for my children' as she braids hair, writes grants, paints and delivers 'pep talks'. She moved from Spokane, Washington.
In 2015, a local news reporter in Washington 'outed' Dolezal after revealing her Montana parents, Ruthanne and Lawrence Dolezal, were both white. High school pictures emerged of Dolezal - before she had made attempts to cast herself as a black woman - with blond hair
Hall questioned Dolezal about her hair and the former NAACP leader claimed that she was wearing it in braids to advertise her business of hair braiding as she had not been able to find other jobs.
'I'm in braids right now - and for a practical reason: advertising what I do to provide for my children,' Dolezal said, as she appeared on the show with a map of Africa in the background. 'I've been braiding for over 20 years.'
'I started with applying for all of the things I was qualified for,' she said of her job prospects, 'and after interviews and getting turned down, I even applied to jobs that didn't even require degrees ... being a maid at a hotel, working at a casino. 'I wasn't able to get any of those jobs either.'
'A mother, an activist, and an artist … that's really who I am,' Dolezal continued. 'When it comes to race and identity, I've always identified racially as "human" but have found more of a home in black culture and the black community, and that hasn't changed.
'I'm still the same person I was in May of 2015 I'm still doing the work I'm still pressing forward but it has been really tough for sure.
She was previously married to a black man, Kevin Moore, who she divorced in 2005. The mother of three sons claims she was 'too black' for him.

Actor James Dreyfus slam trans activists as 'misogynistic guys in skirts' for waging war of hatred on JK Rowling and sending death and rape threats to women as part of campaign to 'put them back in their place'
The Gimme, Gimme, Gimme star, 52, claimed those involved were 'angry, young, anarchist people' who harboured a deep hatred of women and 'what they represent'.
He also accused them of being behind an alleged campaign of threats to kill and rape women in order to 'put them back in their place'.
Dreyfus today told an 'In Discussion' Zoom meeting organised by the Campaign for Common Sense that society appeared to be 'going backwards'.
He said: 'These people speak for nobody but themselves. All my trans friends are as horrified and embarrassed as me. They want none of this having to label everything.
'Women are going "please listen to us" but the response is "No, we won't listen".'
A group of trans activists condemned Dreyfus last year when he was among 50 actors, writers and journalists to sign a letter in support of JK Rowling following backlash to her views on trans people.
The Harry Potter author hit headlines in June after she mocked an online article using the words 'people who menstruate' instead of 'women'.
She was hit by what she described as 'relentless attacks' after she wrote: 'I'm sure there used to be a word for those people. Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?'
The acclaimed novelist then penned a deeply personal essay to address the controversy, revealing she was sexually assaulted in her 20s and saying she still feels the scars of 'domestic violence' from her first marriage.
Rowling's remarks sparked backlash from a range of stars including actors Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe and Eddie Redmayne.
She has since been involved in several transphobia rows, including when she directed fans to a website selling badges and stickers saying 'transwomen are men' in September.
Critics branded the author a TERF - a slur meaning a trans exclusionary radical feminist - in response, while urging Rowling to 'understand the damage and hatefulness you have caused a group of people.'
Dreyfus said he had been 'cancelled' after showing support for the author in the letter as he criticised social media as 'a monster we have created'.
He said people used it as an 'echo chamber' of their views, adding: 'Silicon Valley has a lot to answer for. 'Everything has become so polarised. It is a big boil growing and growing. One day it will burst but I don't know when.'

Mississippi, Tennessee and Utah consider laws that would ban transgender girls from women's sport because they have an 'unfair advantage'
Under a bill that advanced in the Republican-controlled Mississippi Senate late Thursday night, transgender athletes would be banned from competing in girls' or women's sports in the state's schools and universities.
Many critics have objected to transgender women competing in female sports, arguing that they have an unfair advantage because they typically have greater strength, bone mass, and muscle volume.
Studies have shown that the women often retain their physical advantages inherited from birth, even if they take testosterone-lowering medication.
Speaking last week during a Senate committee hearing, Utah Senator Mitt Romney said he felt transgender girls should not participate in girl's sport.
'I've got pictures of my eight granddaughters amongst grandsons behind me,' Romney said. 'They shouldn't be competing with people who are physiologically in an entirely different category.
'I think boys should be competing with boys and girls should be competing with (girls) on the athletic field.'
However there is often fierce debate over the subject, and President Joe Biden signed an executive order on January 20 - the day he took office - that bans discrimination based on gender identity in school sports and elsewhere.
And LGBTQ rights organisations have accused the proposed bans of being attempts to 'sow hate' and say they are driven by the 'far right'.
Sports scholarships gained from high school sports often give students free tuition to university, which can cost tens of thousands of dollars a year.
In Mississippi, Republican Sen. Angela Hill of Picayune said: 'I've had numerous coaches across the state call me and believe that they feel there's a need for a policy in Mississippi because they are beginning to have some concerns of having to deal with this,' said the bill's sponsor.'
No senator asked whether any transgender athletes are currently competing in Mississippi, and Hill did not volunteer such information. The bill will go to the Republican-controlled House for more work in coming weeks.
Mississippi is one of a dozen states with lawmakers proposing restrictions on athletics or gender-confirming health care for transgender minors this year.
Mississippi Republican governor Tate Reeves, the father of three daughters, tweeted on February 4: 'I am so disappointed over President Biden's actions to force young girls like them to compete with biological males for access to athletics.'
Human Rights Campaign, an LGBTQ advocacy group, condemned anti-transgender bills in Mississippi and other states.
'These bills are not addressing any real problem, and they´re not being requested by constituents,' Human Rights Campaign said in a statement Wednesday.
'Rather, this effort is being driven by national far-right organisations attempting to sow fear and hate.'
In Utah, Senator Mike Lee introduced a bill with 13 other Republican colleagues that would also ban transgender girls from playing women's sport at schools.
Lee said the bill would protect 'opportunities of girls throughout America to athletically compete against other girls.'
Supporters of bills such as the one in Mississippi argue that transgender girls, because they were born male, are naturally stronger, faster and bigger than those born female.
Opponents say such proposals violate not only Title IX of federal education law prohibiting sex discrimination, but also rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court and 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
In Tennessee, a day after the governor said transgender athletes would 'destroy women's sports,' Senate GOP leaders on Thursday offered tepid support for legislation that would ban them from participating in girls' sports.
'I think we need to adequately review the issue in committee and if it's not occurring in Tennessee (we should) probably not address it,' Senate Speaker Randy McNally, a Republican from Oak Ridge, told reporters.
The comments add some uncertainty to the bill's prospects one day after Republican Governor Bill Lee entered the debate.
He said transgender athletes would 'destroy women's sports' and stressed that transgender athletes would put 'a glass ceiling back over women that hasn't been there in some time.'
However, as the legislation is debated inside the GOP-dominant General Assembly, neither Lee nor legislative leaders have revealed how many transgender students are participating in public school sports in Tennessee - sparking criticism from opponents that prioritising the proposal is offensive when the state continues to be wracked by the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to the bill, student athletes would be required to prove that the student's sex matches the student's 'original' birth certificate in order to participate in public school sports.
If a birth certificate is unavailable, then the parents must provide another form of evidence 'indicating the student's sex at the time of birth.'
The proposal has already made some early traction in the House but it remains unknown how far it will advance in the Senate after McNally's remarks.
Like Lee, McNally also said he opposed transgender girls participating in girls sports but said he's unsure it's an issue that should be a top concern for the state.
'We need to move very carefully. I think probably that issue is best addressed on the local level and allow the locals to address that issue,' he said.
Senate GOP Caucus Chairman Ken Yager added that he expects questions on how widespread transgender athletes are currently participating in Tennessee's middle and high schools when the bill is debated in a committee hearing.
In contrast, Republican House Speaker Cameron Sexton told reporters Thursday that the state should take a 'proactive approach' regardless of whether transgender athletes were actually participating in middle and high school sports in Tennessee.
'Whether it is now or not, it could very well be in the future. You've seen national things happening,' Sexton said. 'I think we're being more proactive knowing that it could be a problem today or in the future.'
Sexton added that he believed the legislation is supported by his Republican caucus and that it will likely pass the House.
Currently, a similar 2020 Idaho law has been blocked by a federal judge as a lawsuit makes it way in court.
In 2019, 18-time Tennis grand slam singles champion Martina Navratilova was heavily criticised for her comments on transgender inclusion in sport.
She wrote in a newspaper column, she referred to trans woman as men who 'decide to be female,' adding that it is 'cheating and unfair' to allow them to compete with women who were assigned female at birth.
'To put the argument at its most basic: a man can decide to be female, take hormones if required by whatever sporting organisation is concerned, win everything in sight and perhaps earn a small fortune, and then reverse his decision and go back to making babies if he so desires,' she wrote.
'It's insane and it's cheating. I am happy to address a transgender woman in whatever form she prefers, but I would not be happy to compete against her. It would not be fair.'
Her comments were slammed for being 'disturbing, upsetting, and deeply transphobic', with rights group Trans Actual tweeting: 'We’re pretty devastated to discover that Martina Navratilova is transphobic.
'If trans women had an advantage in sport, why aren’t trans women winning gold medals left, right and centre?'
In the case of the Olympics, under guidelines introduced by the International Olympic Committee in 2016, trans men are allowed to compete without restriction.
However, trans women must demonstrate that they testosterone level has been below a certain cutoff point for at least one year before their first competition.
