Detective Awareness Of Changes
Summary
Detectives can learn of phone number changes through subpoenas, public records, or social media. In South Carolina, subpoenas for medical records require a valid court reason. Welfare checks may lead to investigations if there are additional concerns. Death records are not public in South Carolina or North Carolina, and access is restricted. Alleged fathers without legal recognition generally cannot subpoena medical records. Proper authorization is needed for medical record access, and subpoenas typically take several days to process. Cease and desist letters should have professional contact details.Full Conversation

A wellfare check was requested by someone who has never even seen my child despite getting multiple opportunities to do so. Deputy came to my house to search for my daughter, she was not with me. I told the deputies who came that I had been threatened if I didn't do what said person wanted then they would make sure a full investigation was launched and due to the events that had transpired the past year and a half I did not feel comfortable having the person who initiated the check to know where my daughter and I were located. They left then told this person exactly where we were. There was no mention of an investigation and seemed like it ended there. A couple of days later, there was allegedly another well check requested by some one who wanted to remain anonymous, even to law enforcement. That day a detective came to my house, did not identify who he was or have on anything you would typically see law enforcement wearing. He immediately started asking where my daughter was rude. I began to tell him the events with this person and the harassment that had been happening he the past year and a half. His response was he didn’t care aout that. Leading me to believe he was not law enforcement because he never said he was the entire time. So I felt as though it was the person who initiated the checks friend or potentially a private investigator. I had already found a tracker on my car months prior to this and filed a Police report. Working on that assumption, I lied as to where my daughter was and gave a random address that was not mine and shared * screenshots of my daughters medical records on my chart via text. When he left I went to the police station in an attempt to figure out who this person was at my house. They said it was a detective for york county sheriffs department. I ased if I could file a report for harassment they stated that detective wanted to take that over despite his previous statement. That made me very uncomfortable thinking there would be a bias against me for not telling the truth when I though he was not who he is. He was suppose to come the next day and he didn’t. He came the next day and said that he called the hospital and those screenshots were fabricated and he didn’t think there even was a baby that was existent and the harassment was * percent my fault because I didn’t give someone what they want and If I would they would stop. Asked me to sign a document giving him access to my medical records. I declined and said I would meet him at my lawyers office and if she felt I needed to I would. He said no I can just get a subpoena through the court. I proceeded to tell him that he can get with the person who requested the wellness check to come up with a date and a time they can both see her and to let me know. I followed up multiple times via text, phone calls, and email with no response for 2 months. Still hasn’t seem my child. Neither of them have.
