The state government of Colorado is in hot water for its prolonged neglect of an email hotline to report child abuse cases.
The AP reports: (https://apnews.com/abb6c464143242bf882dfe0da54d277b) A Colorado state email account that was created to report suspected child abuse and neglect went unchecked for over four years, and five possible cases that were undiscovered until May are now being investigated, officials said.
Minna Castillo-Cohen, director of the Colorado Department of Human Services’ Office of Children and Families, said agency officials wish they had identified those cases sooner, but they didn’t know the email account existed, KCNC-TV reported.
