Child agency places official, supervisor, caseworker on leave pending probe of toddler's death

Texas Child Protective Services placed three employees on leave Friday in the wake of the death of a nearly 2-year-old Abilene girl whose mother claims she was too stressed by her husband's deployment to care for her children.

  1. Here is a link to a Philadelphia case where a child died of starvation and DCS (DHS in PA) workers and DCS/DHS contractor personnel were charged and sentenced to jail time, as well as the parents, and I would like to see Tennessee DA’s take the same position:

    I wrote to the Governor of Tennesse and told him that I'd like to see all Tennessee DA's charge derelict DCS workers when the children they're supposed to be protecting are murdered by the parents they can't seem to take on.

    I wrote to the Governor of Tennesse and requested that all Tennessee DAs bring charges like the above against derelict DCS workers in Tennessee when a child they were supposed to be protecting dies at the hands of the parents the worker was to much of a wuss to take on.
