CPS investigated mom before toddler's death

Entrant information:

Andrew Goodridge


Judges Comments:

Good, solid reporting on an issue of local importance and good use of the state's open government laws to obtain the documentation. Reporting exposed a serious problem with the state's CPS monitoring system that hopefully will lead to more public awareness and more improved measures to protect vulnerable children from repeated abuse. -- Mark Mahoney, Editorial Page Editor, The Post-Star, Glens Falls NY
