In this case a foster child was murdered slowly starved to death and the school, the neighborhood parents, and her biological parents where all calling and asking DHS to do a safety check.

Why are the state employees who refused to check on her not being charged with any crime? Also their names have not been released.

She was literally never checked on once she was put into foster care.

The Federal Tort Claims Act probably? “Under the FTCA, the federal government acts as a self-insurer, and recognizes liability for the negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of its employees acting within the scope of their official duties.”

The government employed the agent, so they take responsibility. Not the agents.
