E.A. and its readers acknowledge that DCF is a valuable resource it is our hope that DCF remains un blemished .

In view of recent headlines involving one of the department's spokespersons that had been arrested and has a criminal record, the bringing to light of this situation by the authorities confirms the diligence of the authorities to keep this dept clean .

We have always taken the position that a few bad apples can have a devastating effect.

We know of workers that have had their records expunged for crimes of moral terpitude who are still working as social workers and counselors , sooner or later the truth will be revealed and damage the reputation of the thousands of honest hard working social workers and Adult Protective Investigators that are doing a good job.
