Tia,
If you worked for CYS for four years you probably have a better understanding then most of us as to why they do what they do. I know here in Arizona our CFS department is in the middle of a firestorm because several children have died or been harmed in high profile CFS cases.
If your father is threatening to sue you for libel there isn't alot you can do. Anyone can sue anyone in America. The real issue is will he collect anything?
You said he told the case worker he admitted touching you and that you "led him on". At what age were you when did this touching? (How old did he tell the CYS worker you were when this happend?).
How did this all come out with the granddaughter? What led he mother to suspect he was touching her? If she knew in advance he had molested you (how long ago did you tell her) yet left her own daugther with this man I'd wonder "why"?
If he admitted this to the caseworker he has no case against you. All you've done is make an accusation and he's admitted to it. Did he actually "admit" to it is the big question.
As for touching the granddaughter who is four those cases are honestly next to impossible to prove. You said the granddaughter was inconsistent in her testimony with the CYS worker. What exactly did she say and not say that made the worker believe there was "inconsistency".
I'll ask if your sister filed a police report. CYS is fine for some things but a criminal investigation is another matter. The police have to investigate themselves. You might also consider filing a complaint regarding your own abuse. Even though your an adult now and he can't be prosecuted it might be good to get it out into the open. Then you'd have some "ammunition" in any libel action he takes.
Have you had any therapy or psychological help for this abuse? Have you ever mentioned it to anyone. When did you FIRST tell someone about it? When did you tell your sister about it? If you told someone years ago your case is alot stronger then if it just "came up now".
Lastly keep in mind your grandfather does NOT have the right to see his granddaugther. Your sister needs to not allow him to see her. Several high profile court cases have occured in which grandparents were told they do NOT have a right to see a grandchild if its against the wishes of the parent.
