NY: Aunt, former caseworker push for probe into Sullivan County CPS after foster child’s hot car death (Includes video)
Westchester News – July 19, 2024
The aunt and former caseworker of a Monticello foster child who died after he was left in a hot car are speaking exclusively tonight with News 12 about the case and why they say the county’s child protective services should be held responsible. Two-year-old Antonio Ware was taken into Sullivan County Child Protective Services around May after officials found concerns with his mother’s living arrangements and her health, according to the child’s aunt, Chante Ware. “How do you do this to someone? You told a mother that she was not good enough to keep her kids,” says Ware, “and now you have my nephew laying in somebody’s funeral home.”
