On Tuesday, May 28, 2024, at approximately 9:30 AM Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Josiah Gathing and Fabian Schwartz met with Licensee Thelma Finch, for the purpose of a complaint investigation and to deliver findings. It was alleged that a child in care was physically harmed by child care provider. LPAs reviewed interviews by Investigator Melissa Weaver from the Department's Investigations Branch and did not find them sufficient to fully prove the allegation. No other evidence was revealed to support the allegation during the investigation.
Although the alleged violations may have happened or are valid, the preponderance of evidence standard has not been met to fully prove or disprove that they did or did not occur, therefore, they are unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted and a notice of site visit provided. Notice of site visit shall remain posted for 30 days.
