Fendi Peekaboo Red

INDIANAPOLIS An Indiana man whose 1 year old son died of head injuries has filed a claim with the state alleging the Department of Child Services failed to conduct a reasonable investigation after he reported the boy was abused while in the care of the child's mother.

The tort claim notice contends DCS failed to communicate with any of Jayden's health care providers after the abuse report last summer and also did not consult with any child abuse experts about the nature and alleged circumstances of the boy's injuries.

"Whether the failure to protect Jayden was due to a lack of competence and training, or simply because nobody really cared enough to do their job is something that DCS and Jayden's healthcare providers need to figure out and correct sooner rather than later," his claim says.
