The family of a four-year-old left who died after being left in an SUV for 17 hours has a long history with Child Protective Services. Investigations date back some 20 years for allegations of abuse, neglect and failing to provide for the children. Colleen McCarty has the story.

  • I don't get your point? First off you said 70% of children are NOT abused. Now you say 50% of children in foster care are abused. Where are you getting your figures from. If one child in foster care is abused that's one too many and should be exposed by the press. Children are put into foster care as a safe harbor, how ironic that they are abused by the very people who should be giving them that!

  • The media director makes it look as though there are more children abused than what actually are. According to the US Census the number of deaths nationwide by parents is 1500. Many more children die in foster care. about 5 out of 10 are abused, raped and even killed in foster care. Look at my video and see my daughter talk. She's telling the truth. CPS needs to support families. The reason they don't is because they make money off BLOCK GRANTS for placing children in foster care. Cha-ching!

  • The media is controlled by certain individuals. They only put on the air what they want us to hear. The media has strong political ties. Maybe they are worried about being yanked off the air. Maybe they they don't know the percentage of children that aren't abused. Maybe they think CPS is helping children because that's what they are supposed to do. I didn't know that CPS was corrupt until this situation happened to me. I was a previous foster mother and have a clean background. I have no idea

  • Why would the news cover children that are NOT abused? Are you saying that the CPS Media Director covers up cases of abuse to make it look as though the actual numbers of abused children are low?

  • those bastard parents

  • Why is it the news covers all child abuse cases but doesn't cover the other 70% of children that are NOT abused or neglected? You know that CPS has a Media Director so while there is abuse the numbers are actually VERY low. Why don't you cover the TRUTH?
