The case of the mismatched shoes, and other ways CPS workers waste their time

The case of the mismatched shoes, and other ways CPS workers waste their time

The call was one of more than 150,000 that are taken each year by Florida's child abuse "hotline." Someone was on the phone alleging that a child was in danger. Had the caller heard the child screaming in the night? No. Had the child complained about being mistreated? No. Had the caller seen welts and bruises? Uh, not exactly.

Note: Another good one from NCCRP.
