Thank YOU! I was thinking the exact same thing...

Or maybe they meant there really was a label on the body that read "Suspicious"? LOL

Re-read the headline! :)

You have certainly piqued my curiosity about this. Are you saying DEL has not told you why you were denied? Surely they are required to tell people why they are denied (?) Was there ANY explanation??

What have I said or done to "hurt the innocent"? Or are you referring to this news article?

I keep hearing that the Cahills are innocent and that these allegations are false, KATU has their information wrong, etc. And I have asked time and again for someone to tell "their" side.

If this story is completely wrong and inaccurate, then I would say it is time to contact an attorney and sue for libel/slander. If these people are truly innocent and their business will suffer as a result of this "untrue" news article, it sounds like an open and shut case (lawsuit) to me.

But wouldn't you agree that a daycare SHOULD be shut down if chidren are being improperly cared for? I understand what you are saying about having to find another care provider, but you certainly wouldn't suggest that the "hassle" of having to do that outweighs the safety and well-being of your child, would you?

Yes, it is a terrible position to be in--without child care and needing to work. But I don't think allowing sub-standard child care is the solution.

Oh,one last thing, just so I do not inflame the ire of others--the statements I just made here on this particular post are in no way a reference to the Cahills. I am speaking of day care in general terms and is no way meant to infer anything about the Cahill's or their past/present businesses.

I cannot help but wonder if the two unknown men involved might not be somehow affiliated with Law Enforcement in some way (?) It just strikes me as very odd that there were interviews, but no arrests were made.

We are having to take this "eye-witness" at face value that the police had to pull the two men off of Duncan. She seems biased to me, seeing as she was this man's good friend, so I will admit I am a bit skeptical of her version of events.

Still, the "no arrests" has definitely piqued my curiosity.

Any other thoughts??

Why didn't you say so before? So you are asserting that when KATU says she "lost" her license in 2004, it was to expiration and not revocation?

I am curious, however, why do you think Ms. Blondin (spokesperson for WA DEL) concluded that "We did not feel that this provider could guarantee that she could offer safe, healthy care for children"? This is the statement she provided to KATU.

I am not looking to be confrontational with these questions, Mr. Cahill. You and a few others on this forum have suggested that KATU has not told an accurate story. I ask these questions to provide an opportunity to hear "the other side", since it is apparent that you do not feel your side has been accurately represented.

Mr. Jensen asserts that his story is based on documentation and interviews he has conducted with state officials. I would very much like to hear your "side" or take on this information.

Thank you Jasmine for so eloquently expressing a sentiment I am sure many parents share. Your first sentence is precisely what I was trying to convey in my earlier post.
Alas, SOME people chose to see what I was trying to say as a personal attack on the people in this story, instead of its true intent. Thank you for helping to put things into the perspective they ought to be--the welfare of our children!

Thank you for your reasonable and rational response. I would agree that any allegations made should be reviewed.

My statement was not even directed at the Cahill's so cool your jets and
re-read my post before you start spouting off...

My statement was a general comment that ANYONE who opens a daycare should be checked to see if there have ever been any other issues or revocation in another state.

Your retort is laughable as well as hypocritical.

And yet I still see nothing posted by you by way of explanation as to why the revocation in Washington. If you are so concerned about me getting my facts straight, why don't you enlighten me??
