DCS has recently provided a 113-page response to questions from the House Democratic Caucus prior to hearings in front of the state legislature next week. Interim Commissioner Jim Henry and other top DCS officials are set to testify in front of the House Government Operations Committee on Tuesday, the Senate Health Committee on Wednesday, and the House Finance, Ways and Means Committee on Thursday.
The response provides a lot more details about the 25 children who died in state custody in 2011 and 2012, but has not addressed the number of children that have died in cases in which DCS had an open investigation of abuse or neglect, but had not yet placed the children in state custody.
