CPS employees stall Nassau probe into drowning deaths

A probe into Nassau County's handling of neglect cases against a New Cassel mother charged with drowning her three children in February has been delayed more than two months by uncooperative Child Protective Services employees, the county's top investigator said.

One CPS worker declined to be interviewed and then, after being subpoenaed by Investigations Commissioner Bonnie Garone, exercised his Fifth Amendment right to not incriminate himself, Garone said.

Note: So the 5th Amendment is ok for workers, but not the 4th for parents?
