Maine Bills Seek to Tighten Abuse Reporting Requirements


Maine Bills Seek to Tighten Abuse Reporting Requirements


Several high-profile cases of long-term sexual abuse - from the Vatican to Bangor, Maine - have put the spotlight on procedures for reporting cases of suspected child abuse and neglect. A pair of bills originally heard by Maine lawmakers on the Health and Human Services Committee got another hearing today before the Judiciary Committee. The bills would tighten child abuse reporting requirements, and sharpen the penalties for failure to report suspected abuse. But as Jennifer Mitchell reports, the proposals face opposition from the medical community.

Note: Maine's CPS director Therese Cahill-Low is a fear monger who took a once national model child welfare system and turned it into an inadequate failure which snatches more kids while pulling the plug on the services that kept kids safe in the home.

She really needs to go.
