$900 trillion for allegedly wrongfully placing her two sons in foster care and claiming she was mentally unstable.
46-year old Fausat Ogunbayo, who is representing herself, says the Administration for Children's Services's decision to
place her children in foster care infringed upon her civil rights and ultimately inflicted "over three years of terror, horror, grievous harm, time lost, substantial economic hardship and injuries."
The children, then 12 and 10-years old, have been out of their mother's custody since
June 2008.In court papers, the ACS references several peculiar incidents where Ogunbayo sought out medical treatment because she believed her
children's skin color was becoming darker due to radiation. In a separate episode, the mother allegedly told school officials the FBI was after the boys.
While the city is contending Ogunbayo suffered from such hallucinations and in addition
was an absent mother , a separate legal case last month ruled in favor of Ogunbayo with the court stating no substantial evidence indicating the children were ever in "imminent danger" while in their mother's care.
The Staten Island Advance reports that in fact, the two children had near-perfect school attendance and were "even thriving academically."
However, the mother claims that the ACS has yet to return her children to her care.
As for Ogunbayo's
$900 trillion demand,
Forbes provides some perspective:
The largest City settlement to an individual is $18,278,000 to James McMillan who suffered paralyzing injuries in the 2003 Staten Island Ferry dock crash that killed 11 passengers...And the national debt is $15 trillion.
