Son of former Marysville day care owner charged with sexually abusing children - Marysville Globe
This newspaper missed important background information. This is the day care King 5 News investigators found made over $232,000.00 dollars, taxpayer dollars in her daycare, Anne Ladale Moore. By the time of the King 5 News report the Department of Early Learning had suspended the license without disclosing why.
Five months later we find out the allegations. Now allegations of sexual abuse have been disclosed about Anne Ladale Moore's son and we find out this occurred in Idaho where she and he lived previously.
When I got Anne Ladale Moore's records through public disclosure they showed, in addition, she was working another job.
The background check for many years has been a problem that I as an inside witness, that I as a licensor brought up to managers, all the way up through the chain of command to DSHS Secretary, the governor and, in addition, through the State Auditor I made whistle blower reports over five years ago about this issue.
Some of the documents required to have been submitted years ago where one could discern, see gaps and inconsistencies whereby further documents could be requested were made irrelevant. In 2009 I saw a background clearance form that returned some of that data gathering to a form. I'm not aware how it changed the processes and practices.
Five years after my whistle blower report the State Auditor found my allegations were founded, and wrote a report about the problems with background clearance checks in the Department of Early Learning.
A thank you to the Washington State legislature for passing a bill this year to fingerprint all applicants.
Prayers to these little ones mentioned in the stories.
Being violated in one's private areas and being violated emotionally is devastating to young children. Even once can last a lifetime.
