-here's the FACTS-
Quinten Douglas Wood, 15, died of pneumonia on January 4.
Quinten
suffered from a rare chromosomal abnormality that left him unable to
care for most basic needs. He wore diapers, needed help to eat and clean
himself, and had the mental capacity of an infant or a toddler, records
show.
His
father, Michael David Wood, 47, said Quinten had so many ear infections
that antibiotics rarely worked. He had been hospitalized at least nine
times with pneumonia, and each time took its toll, he said.
A
single working dad, Wood needed help to care for his disabled son. He
said he went to DHS three times, starting in 2010, to ask for it.
"They
bounced me to another department, and they said well, somebody will
come out. And nobody ever came out," Wood said. "I finally said, forget
it, I'll do it on my own
Michael David Wood, 47, of Midwest City, was charged in March with child neglect.

Her first supervisor, Heather Rogers, was fired last year for failures in overseeing workers.

follow basic child welfare policy or investigative protocols.”
Rogers “didn’t teach them anything,” the district director reported.
This is the grate CPS in all it's glory, destroying every life they touch.

She looks like she's about twelve years old.
ReplyDeleteShe reminds me very much of my youngest daughter. Which is why there is a soft spot for her in my otherwise CPS hatin' heart.
