AP reported in the Tacoma News Tribune today:
"DSHS and the Dept. of Corrections are paying $1.5 million to a now 14 year-old girl. The girl was emotionally, physically and sexually abused while in her grandparents' home in Okanagon County despite warnings to Child Protective Services. The girl's grandfather had twice been convicted on child-molestation charges and his parole officer told CPS he might pose a danger to the child. (Ya THINK?)
DSHS spokesman Steve Williams said the two departments decided to settle the claim to spare the family and the girl from having to relive the trauma....
And they decided to announce this case in time for Saturday news...least read of all the papers and untimely for Monday talk radio shows.

relive the trauma??? Hey you idiots at DSHS how about preventing it in the first place?
This is sadly typical of a lot of CPS/DCF cases. Family unification often takes a higher presidence than child safety.
Of course they decided to settle. How conveinient.
This is sadly typical of the sick behavior CPS engages in and has nothing to do with family unification. They DO SELL PLENTY OF BABIES TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER! Get it straight!
I would like to see them go to court and get questioned on the stand. Placing a child with a known sex offender does not surprise me in the least. My family has fought the battle with CPS for 3.5 years and WE DID NOT ABUSE ANY CHILD. But across the street from me is a level II sex offender and who lives there. 2 foster to adopt boys and 3 bio kids. Do you think they should be there. I don't. Whats wrong with CPS? Everything!!
Has anyone read Susannah Frame's Investigator story on King5 the report that is out by Dr. De Haan?
Children Protective services is nothing but a racket. They don't operate under any laws.
What if the entire government was allowed to operate like C.P.S.? You would have to head for the hills or the border as many people have who have been victimized by them.
They are a blot on our country.
For the record eight out of ten reported incidences of sexual molestation to children occur in foster care!
