    This guy needs to be held accountable… and fired. He needed to ask Harmony not Adam who’s a drug addict.

    I think the case worker should have been held accountable. I, as a former foster parent can tell you we are always being watched closely by these workers and made to feel we aren’t good enough to question their decisions. Thankfully our last case worker knew what she was doing and actually protected the child before listening to the lies the parents were spewing.
    Oh, and it absolutely disgusts me he kept his job…but isn’t that typical with one of these govt jobs? They are protected while an innocent, beautiful child who should have been protected just as well is murdered and her body will probably never be found. It’s just wrong.

      Yet everyone loves to complain when government gets in their life. How about both parents be held accountable and not given so many chances to continue to abuse their child and then end up with a dead little one. Now that useless junkie bio mother once again not taking any responsibility wants $$$

  • @Celestial.Heather
    @Celestial.Heather 12 часов назад +5

    So he noticed injury but did not contact police, failure! However there are MANY case workers that are either not doing their job or have very limited power due to overreach of the state. Entire System needs to be audited to weed out these failing depts & workers to help prevent future harm.

    @DawnRyan-k8o 15 часов назад +6

    I am so glad to see that they are at least trying to see why this case fell through the cracks, like so many others, these children, are the most vulnerable among us, they don’t have someone that loves them, looking out for them, they are at risk, trapped in a system that harbors pedophiles, human traffickers, and many other criminals that prey upon them. They are in dire need of protection, that seems to be worlds away from them. 😔😢

    Many states around the country have a very bad system with their children and family services that involve children and juveniles being mistreated and not cared for properly by the parent(s). These state workers act like they don't want to do much for the clients and rather just get paid by their state.

      No. Crystal isn't Kayla.
      Yes, she battled substance addiction but she learned from it & she's not a career criminal. DCYF should've never overlooked that or AT LEAST acted when Kevin reported the abuse.

      @ldolan4051 What do you mean? A & K were arrested after Harmony was officially declared missing in late December 2021.
      Adam stood trial 1st for gun dealings in the summer of 2023 and in February 2024 for killing his daughter.
      Kayla got 18 months for perjury & got a deal for being the State's witness/her testimony about what happened on Dec. 7, 2019 & afterwards.
      Harmony's case has been in the national news for almost 3 years now.
