I copied the code at the wrong time. I have commented that in and out. Also where I set $sid to 0 was for testing also. I did set the $sid = '12ba7ce0cfeeae8e8a934af6724910e9'; which I copied from the cookie I am interested in and it proceeded to assume I was logged. The calling code just check ne 0 so anything ne 0 would have the same effect 
sub ProcessLoginRequest
{
  my ($query) = @_;
  my $status = 0;
#  $sessionname = 'CGISESSID';
#  my %cookies = CGI::Cookie->fetch;
#  my $sid = $cookies{$sessionname}->value; 
  my $sid = GetUserSessionCookie();
  warn("ProcessLoginRequest Query: '$query'");
  warn("ProcessLoginRequest SID from cookie: '$sid'");

  #Check if it got valid return from fetch cookie
  if ($sid ne 0){
    $status = 1;

But later I compare against the stored session ID. 

#---------------------------------------------------------------------
+----------
# FUNCTION: OpenSession($dbh, $sid)
# Opens existing session or creates new depending on $sid
#---------------------------------------------------------------------
+----------
sub OpenSession{
  my ($dbh, $sid)= @_;
  $session  = new CGI::Session("driver:MySQL", $sid, {Handle=>$dbh, Lo
+ckHandle=>$dbh});
  return $session;
}
