I am wrong about the law on this. I am horrified by this law, but I don't get to make the law and am happy to admit when I am wrong. Here is an contemporaneous paper (to approx time of M's telling her psychiatrist) re: failure to report knowledge of a crime when told in session as a therapist...

I am an RN in Ohio and a mandated reporter who does not work with children. My professional and legal obligation is to report alleged crimes, abuse or neglect of a child or vulnerable adult whether I witnessed the crime, abuse or neglect or whether the report of same was given to me. If my adult...

Might be tough to get the parish priest to release those records. My local parish won't release beyond 1925, even to direct line family. Cops might get them, though.

Yes, good question. This article says mid 60's. Do I Report This? Understanding Variation in the Content of State Mandatory Reporting Laws). Seems like a death/crime against a different person would HAVE to be reported in 89.

Can I just say it is nuts to me that a mandated reporter did not report a client admission of a child's death? The shrink should have been fined, at minimum.

This very thing happened in my family. My deeply Catholic great grandfather conceived a child out of wedlock with a deeply Catholic girl in the 1930's, prior to marrying my great grandmother. She delivered in a Catholic mother's home, and gave the baby up for them to place in an adoptive home...

Just discovered this girl is my husband’s great aunt. We had no idea about this family history.

So strange to look at these photos. She was a very pretty woman, once, and looked happy to hold her baby. He looks strung out for a while, but just so bizarre that their beautiful little boy is now dead, not even by neglect, but active fury and vicious abuse. Let me join the chorus here- I hope...

Forgive me if this has been brought up- around here, the opiate addiction rate is so high that all moms are drug tested when they come to the hospital to have their baby. If they refuse the baby is tested. Would this policy have at least gotten Chance back into the CPS system? I so wish it was a...

I am hoping this child's body was weighted and thus the decomp made the body parts come loose instead of the more sinister reason these pieces would be found. Not that it makes much difference. RIP sweet baby.

Could cannabis oil kill a 7 mos old? I know there are lots of people using it to treat seizures in kids, so I can totally see a dad who is already familiar with the product trying it, but is it really possible that an accidental death would occur?

I had never heard of this story until I watched the trailer and had to google. My eyes were bugging out of my head, I'm sure. Then had to come right to websleuths to see if anything about this case was here. This guy, Christian. Wow. His psychopathy sends shivers down my spine. And turns my...

Not to be cruel, but how long does it take with what we know about temps that day? Would the child have likely been passed at lunchtime when he got in the car again? Because the crime is so heinous, no matter what...but if that child was alive when he went to the car....

And can I just add one more thing? This kid, in this moment captured in time, was doing NONE of those things. We *might* be able to surmise, based on the situation, that he was wandering. He *may* have left the room without permission. Beyond that, we just really don't know what the issue was...

Yeaaaaaahhhhh, but no. I posted a long while back in this thread. My husband is a teacher. He suffers the same issues you have shared, of course. And they are extremely concerning and problematic. I am an RN in a hospital setting. We share some of those same concerns. But if I was tending to...

I showed my husband this video. He is a teacher and has been for a long time, in a very rough school district. His opinion? NO MATTER WHAT, no matter what, NO MATTER WHAT the circumstances were between this child and teacher....she should not have laid a finger on this child or said the things...

With the inquest news, I have changed my mind. I think unfortunately Peaches was just using, like most addicts, without regard to the safety of her child present, thinking that this wouldn't be the time she od'd. I wonder if the police statement was misleading intentionally, that no drugs were...

I am heartbroken by this. Truely just tragic. "Every junkies like a setting sun". I wonder if this is going to be a criminal case? Looks to me like maybe she used with somone, who maybe she thought would stay sober and watch her child? Then when it was obvious she had od'd, that person took...

If the military radar report is correct, sounds more and more like something happened with/to the pilot and co pilot

I've kinda wondered if the break in Zach refered to on his fb was a successful attempt by someone to collect whatever evidence Zach had kept from the murder and turned it in to the police as revenge for something. Their certainty that Holly is not with us could mean that evidence included some...
