I am so sorry you are going through this, your story illustrates absolutely everything that is wrong with our legal system as regards dangerous children and teens. You are absolutely right, you would be reported to CPS whether you took him home or not.
Your attorney will have the best advice for you moving forward. How long until he is 18? Has there ever been any police involvement?
If this was my family, we would look into somehow getting son eligible for Medicaid so the state would cover his care. Maybe his physical issues provide a window of opportunity to get him that coverage.
Has he ever been on antipsychotic medications?
