The state's summary (as published)
On December 10, 2022, a complaint was called into the Report Line and not accepted for investigation by the Institutional Abuse Unit. It was sent to the Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) on December 12, 2022, and accepted for investigation regarding improper discipline. This complaint was also self-reported to OCCL and law enforcement. OCCL received clearance from law enforcement to investigate the complaint on January 5, 2023. An investigation was conducted on January 10, 2023. The complaint is substantiated for improper discipline because the administrators reviewed video footage when the incident was brought to their attention and confirmed the staff roughly handled the child. The administrators took immediate action. The staff was immediately suspended and subsequently terminated from employment at the center.
