This week, Drewby and Yergy discuss two heartbreaking tragedies that took place over 1,200 miles apart… The similarities are shocking… And while these two cases aren’t directly connected, it highlights two different, but critical, ways we’ve seen CPS fail children: Not taking reports of harm seriously from witnesses, and not doing proper due diligence before placing a child in the home of a dangerous person. They serve as examples not only of ways CPS needs to do better, but ways in which we all need to do better in being vigilant: Saying something when we see something. Because if not, more innocent lives will continue to fall through the cracks. These are the stories of Kamryn Schlitter and TJ Wright.
