LM&W was featured on ABC Action News discussing our client, a Hernando County mother, who is suing the state agency in charge of protecting kids. She says The Florida Department of Children and Families is responsible for placing her kids in a home where they were allegedly molested.
While her two children—both with special needs—were in foster care in 2018 they were both sexually and physically abused by a Lake County couple. The couple has had previous complaints about how they treated their foster kids. The Lake County Sheriff’s office investigated the foster care parents but never made an arrest, but reports show the foster parents were investigated 10 times by Kids Central, Inc. for allegations of sexual abuse and they did lose their license to be foster parents. Along with DCF, Kids Central, Youth & Family Alternatives and Lifestream Behavioral Services are also named in the lawsuit.
Our attorney Michael Winkleman is representing this family. “I think there were failures across the board from all entities," Winkleman said. "I think the buck ultimately stops with DCF. But, I do think there needs to be accountability on each of these agencies so they are held responsible so they all make the changes that are required to make sure this does not happen again."
