In re M.O. CA4/2
M.O. and E.O. were removed from their parents’ custody when allegations that their father, Marcos O., had sexually abused a step-daughter from a relationship with another woman years earlier emerged. Father also had numerous convictions for alcohol related offenses. The San Bernardino County Children and Family Services Agency (CFS) filed a dependency petition under Welfare and Institutions Code section 300, subdivisions (b) and (d). At a contested jurisdictional hearing, the court made true findings on all allegations, removed the children from father’s (and mother’s) custody, ordered reunification services to mother, but denied services to father pursuant to section 361.5, subdivision (b)(6). Father appealed.
