A federal judge ordered Texas officials to cooperate with a U.S. Senate investigation into private residential treatment providers.
Judge Janis Jack, who presides over the state’s 11-year old foster care litigation, ordered state officials at a Tuesday hearing to cooperate with Senate investigators targeting foster care treatment providers. One Devereux facility in League City was the focus of a federal court report last year. The report documented riots and child on child sexual activity inside the facility. Texas Department of Family and Protective Services confirmed it no longer contracted with the facility. But the facility remained open, with self reported incidents into Feb. 2022.
But Jack said it wasn’t clear if there were more Texas foster children in these facilities. The focus of the hearing was on the state’s faulty data collection. When the state removes a child from a home, the child is placed into Temporary Managing Conservatorship .
