The Blouin foster home in Massachusetts became a house of horrors where children endured years of torture and neglect while DCF ignored repeated warnings. This story exposes how systemic failures, shredded records, and official indifference allowed abuse to continue unchecked, leaving lasting scars and raising urgent questions about accountability.

Connecticut’s Department of Children and Families has failed again and again to protect the most vulnerable children. From infants poisoned by fentanyl to teenagers starved and hidden from school, the agency ignored warnings, mishandled safety plans, and allowed children to die in homes already flagged as dangerous. Investigations show a pattern of missed opportunities and systemic neglect that continues to put lives at risk.
