> [@Kinthalis](#): > > Looking closer at other articles on the case of the social workers involved with that poor little boy, it looks like it was a combination of missing several “red flags” (in this case being previous involvement with CPS and beatings, and several teachers expressing concern) and being stretched too thin. Again, lack of funding playing a role, but I guess the politicians who underfunded these programs won’t be held accountable. The father was convicted of murder yesterday and possibly is facing the death penalty. The mother and the caseworker trials are upcoming. I agree with all of your points. The sheriff said the process has been changed and this can’t happen again. At the press conference after the verdict, the prosecutor broke down in tears and revealed that he was also abused. ---
