The initial social worker on the case, recommended on 5 Nov 1970, that Susan Wiley "Genie" be removed from her parents and made a dependent ward of the state.  Susan Wiley "Genie" had a state appointed attorney and advocate John Miner. Susan "Genie" was placed as a foster child first with David and Marilyn Rigler, in 1971.  It appears she was next placed with the Crocketts about 1977.  Susan's mother Irene Wiley appears in one of these documents dated Jan 1974.  And again Irene signs an authorization form in Jun 1975. Susan Wiley was placed at Immaculate Heart College 1973, the "Sophia T Salvin School" 1973-1974, "Diane S Leichmann School" 1974-5, and the Lincoln School 1976-7.

There was apparently some sort of conflict between the Rigler's and Jean Butler over Genie's care and guardianship.  John Miner wrote extensive notes on the "numerous foster homes after Genie left Rigler's"
