Seems to me that every month brings another story of either abuse or incompetence on the part of the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OKDHS). The most recent installment in this saga has OKDHS turning upside down the life of Tulsan Michael Thomas. In falsely accusing Mr. Thomas of fathering a Lawton woman’s child, OKDHS turned a blind eye to the negative results of more than one paternity test, filed false reports with the court, and took money to which it was not entitled through garnishment of Mr. Thomas’ paychecks and interception of both his federal and state income tax refunds. OKDHS’ harassment eventually forced Mr. Thomas to drop out of college and forfeit a football scholarship. Mr. Thomas is now represented by an attorney and DHS says that it hopes the matter can be settled short of litigation. You and I as Oklahoma taxpayers better get ready to write a big, fat check to Mr. Thomas to compensate him for OKDHS’ latest episode of abuse and incompetence.
