The University of Michigan’s Innocence Clinic have successfully argued for a new hearing to hear evidence that Terry Ceasor, a Port Huron man, was convicted based on the faulty theory that the only possible cause of his girlfriend’s 16 month old child’s head injury was violent shaking.

On June 7, 2016 the court granted a request by the Department of Health and Human Services that court jurisdiction of Naomi be permanently terminated. Naomi is now in the full care and custody of her parents Josh and Brenda Burns. The Burns family are grateful for the overwhelming support they received over the past 2 years.

This past weekend Josh, Brenda, Torn Family Trustees, and several local supporters had the opportunity to see the film The Syndrome in Bloomfield Hills. They also had the pleasure of meeting the filmmakers, Meryl and Susan Goldsmith. Please watch the below clip from Fox 2 Detroit.

The Burns family had a review hearing on the status of their court ordered family reunification plan. Josh was granted permission to officially move back into the family home. We anticipate closure of the DHS case in a month.
