Editorial: Memphis Police Department’s silence on foster care death is inexcusable

The Memphis Police Department's failure to tell the public about the death of a 6-year-old girl in foster care and that a teen-age boy had been charged in the death represents an inexcusable lack of transparency.

• Teen charged, children removed from home after death of 6-year-old foster girl
• Teen charged with first-degree murder in death of child
• Cops: Tennessee boy, 14, charged in assault of three children
