Lawrenceville, Ga. - The state’s child protection agency has made a final decision about who it holds responsible for closing an abuse investigation that might have saved a Gwinnett County girl’s life.
The decision isn’t what a fired social worker hoped to hear. After former supervisor Alexandria Armah spoke out to the FOX 5 I-Team, the state Division of Family and Children Services said it would reexamine its reasons for terminating her employment.

But judges aren't held accountable when they place a child with an abusive guardian...
Judges are supposed to be impartial!!
People who are directly involved with the well-being of children, need to be held accountable for their actions!!
@@onceagain6184 they are, but their hands are tied with the laws the public who will not change them. Cycle gets repeated many times over many decades. The laws needs to be change and the public can step and step in for the children by changing the laws.
Well...got me there
Now why is a lonely extremely underpaid DCFS worker fired for this but judges and DA’s who regularly knowingly set criminals free to take ppl lives NEVER fired ???
Damn, that's a GREAT question.....
🎯🎯🎯🤷🏽♂️
Dei hires.

That’s has nothing to do with it.
She ain’t that lovely if she didn’t care enough about her job or that child to do it correctly correct?
As a former cps worker in a different state, that one line reason is a bunch of crock. There is significantly more info behind the closure along with reason, visits, meetings etc that are included. If she knows she didn't close the case she needs to sue and all that info will come out. They can't hide it unless they plan to hide every single case they've ever had.
they said it themselves it is more complicated then that
Thank you.
@@benl4707 yeah, because they falsify documents to cover abuse and murder within their own ranks on kids.
I caught DCF falsifying documents. They are getting sued FEDERALLY for just that.
I believe her..I think dfax is covering it up..I hate that the child passed away... people need to do the jobs they are paid to do!
Her documentation of when the class ended would disprove anything the agency has. Where is her documentation for the class??
That child went through so much
I'm a former social worker and let me tell you, the number one problem with these agencies is PRIVATIZATION! I bet you that is what's going to come out at some point in this case. They should have an ENTIRE file of this case history. The fact they gave one line on a page shows who's really at fault. I hope this woman gets the vindication she deserves. This entire system is completely BROKEN! And that's exactly why I left the field
I've had upper management change my time sheet and copy & pasted my signature onto their copy without my consent or knowledge. So the guilty person is trying to cover their tracks by pasting her name on the closure of this case.
same in education students for truancy their attendance records were changed yet they hounded me about reporting the students location every hour on the hour......when I did so all they did was change the records to prevent the child from being taken from their parent and separated from their siblings yet stressed me out...
I didn't think you could fire someone from DFCS for incompetence. They usually get promoted.
Best comment. Valid
100%!!!
nope wrong......
That is most jobs.
@@6time686 MANY government jobs, but not private sector.
This is a Tragedy what Happened to this Child but DFCS is covering their own in this.
It is possible for someone else to close cases under her name…if she started in. October in the position and the case closed in December she never had time to even supervise on that case because she was more than likely training.
Yelp!
Someone above her could do it if GA is set up like other states
I know who the demons are. The demons definitely weren’t in his daughter. What type of person murders their own child? That’s stupidity.
Step mother may have been jealous of the daughter. Hope she gets life.
People are too crazy
It's wild that she was willing to married the man who created the child out of wedlock but viewed the child as demonic.
I will get lawyer, be it smell like a cover up. I worked years ago for DCF in Florida and I seen a lot more of this stuff going on when you’re overwhelmed with clients case loads.🗣️🙏🏽
they always blame the new employee on cases that had been stemming for yrs....
They lied on this woman you should want more than an apology sue them for messing with your reputation oeriod 😮
This is what accountability looks like!!! We need to see more story's that end with someone in the system be held to answer
@Recklesseyeballer. Interesting... It does not look like accountability to me if they are using lower hanging fruit as a patsy. It sounds like this system has major systematic issues that are not being addressed. If you know, you know.
Everyone knows what you mean, I mean you have a blk family a blk supervisor but it's whiteys fault, is that what you mean?@@skylarsky3173
@@skylarsky3173 Never looked at it from that perspective, but I have to agree with you!
No one is to blame but the parents
Yeah, this sounds like she was made the scapegoat. I hope those responsible don’t get a good nights sleep until this is resolved. Blaming someone else does not give a person total absolution. It will only drives them to depression and alcohol.
I definitely believe her. The person who signed off on the case is probably someone higher up the chain and a cover-up has taken place to protect that person. When the truth comes out and it will, everyone involved should lose their jobs as well.
SMDH These employers do not care about you. That is why being someone that works in case management I question every time I see my name or initials something that I did not do and make sure I notate that for the record. Most companies use a proprietary system, and if your name is listed as the owner on something, the system will automatically stamp your name, even if you were not the person who did the action.
Sue Sue Sue!!!! Step up some law firm and get justice for her!!
Arrest mine she falsely accused me of abusing my child and using drugs
Let me get this straight. The awful workers don’t feel they should be fired because there are other awful workers who get away with being worthless.🤦♀️
Did that ish just shake her head yes in court!!?? OMG 😳
Nobody is doing their job, but when people aren’t paid enough who cares? This is our society in a nut shell. This time a little girl died though . Now everybody is like “ what happend?”.
THEY COPY AND PASTE EVERYDAY.
so true and they do......had it happen to me in education for students who were connected to the foster care system.....if someone would connect the dots a lot of ppl would of be held responsible....so I did them a favor and left.....they can play with someone else....they really don't care about the kids just their checks and their intact families, they are not serving the kids who really need help.....
I believe that she closed it, I also believe the entire agency has a culture of recklessly closing cases without proper investigation.
A huh
..here we go no accountability for her lack of of doing anything...typical
"Demons in here because she was born out of wedlock."
WTF is this 1824 or 2024?!?
I believe her. If the closing is such a secure process, where are the signed documents indicating she closed it? If the agency presents a chain of documents leading to the closure of the case with explanation for closing, as they should, they’d have some form to present to you. I think someone doesn’t want to admit they screwed up.
The real problem is there is no secure process. There is no good transactional documentation obvious here. I’ve seen it before. It still astounds me how inefficiently and illogically most agencies and businesses are run. I’ve never gotten a job at a place that didn’t need massive rehauling of systems and processes. Sometimes they allowed me to do that; sometimes they didn’t want it. Some people prefer obscurity to hide their incompetencies.
The whole department is messed up and it is EVERYONE'S fault. Playing politics and many are falling for it.
A lie detector test might help ..
It not used in court though
I believe her.
My prayers are with the child 🙏🏿
God is faithful and merciful
So does DCFS work differently in different states? Like if there wasn’t a removal of the child then a DCFS caseworker can just close a case? When my husband and I fostered last year a judge was the only person who could officially close the case. Everyone had to kind of be supportive of closing the case, like the CPS workers, lawyers, and child advocates, but the judge ultimately was the one who closed it.
yes dcfs, dcyc, etc acronyms per state, all work differently
Each state operates differently. This case may not have made it to a judge. It's possible that the case worker consulted with the legal department.
They are lucky all they got was fired! Smh
Their job is to advocate for these children. They died and they have zero remorse.
I'm inclined to believe the fired supervisor given her verifiable excuse (in training in another city at the time) plus the flimsy "evidence" provided by the agency
And this supervisor is blaming everyone else for what happened to the child.
Shady
Giving them only one line of data looks high suspect. If her claim is true she needs to sue DFCS for wrongful termination to get those records subpoenaed and if it shows there is a cover up they need to be forced to pay her in damages.
Sue them and use discovery for proof that it's true.. if not you closed it imo
This needs to be investigated. If a cover-up is proven and the guilty person is discovered, they need to be given the maximum sentence and anything else that can legally be added on because of the cover-up attempt. Anything and everything for our children!!!!!
Sue them.
She isn’t standing up for herself. She was the supervisor. The buck stops with her. Good firing. We need people in that job who take that responsibility seriously. She is most likely lying, she has to realize things like this are documented. That single line came from a case file management system. We use something similar at our department. The reason they only got a single line is because when it comes up on the screen there are multiple other cases associated with that investigator. It has named of people under investigation, victim names and possibly still open investigations. They legally can’t share that info so those lines were removed. If what she is claiming is the truth she would have already lawyered up.
When she sue them they’ll need to come up with something more substantial than one line on a sheet of paper. All databases have a reporting option that can pull up the record and what information is needed. There was no real effort put forth to provide confirmation of who closed the file.
You sound ignorant af.
First time for this, I hope they keep
It going
They lying; it’s a cover up; I will continue pray not just for my cousin children, but for other children that have been taken from their families wrongly and might be in danger or lost his or life due to unjustified systems. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
She owes that child an apology. The wasn't me defense is so common how can people not see right through her. She's a narcissist for going public right no matter how many times you've been proven wrong.
Rest in peace Angel 😇 We must protect children at all costs. This is devastating. This case is going to challenge case law in the area of state employee liability.
Sad situation
That job is really hard. Keep suing social workers without fixing the problems. You won't have anyone willing to work with children.
I believe her. She is not lying and they are using her to cover up whose really responsible.
We've if she closed the case... where's the oversight?!
Yes for being fired
So many have absolutely NO business having children. Stop pointing fingers are government, stop having children you can't afford and have no intention nurturing.
WRITTEN apology.
She should sue. I believe that she didn't close the case. She has to do something other than "believe" it will come out.
RIP Sayra Tavares Barros🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Personally with my experience with DCFS I would NEVER believe anything D-Fax/DCFS has to say!!
The records are not public and DFACS can lie as much as they want without repercussions.
Somebody lying. Show us your mileage or sign in log from the training you attended.
The government is just screwed and if you as a worker don’t have any rights then I know we damn don’t
Not once did she talk about the child
She never mentions the child at all.
Nope. Only herself.
That do look like some fake evidence can’t lie😂
The closed the case. End of story.
That green dress is beautiful. It was made specifically for that reporter.
Um...that line of letters shows nothing. And the word conclusion is highlighted, which means its a link to something else... what's the something else?
There is no date, header, liner, time, or even page number on that piece of paper...I don't know what happened here, but what we're not going go to do is play with people's intelligence.
The thing I can never understand is why would a parent let a person come into their life and let that person abuse their children? The only thing I can come up with is that it’s embedded in their culture. Where the insecure person or persons need a skate goat or someone to blame for their own inferiority.
The parents are to blame. Put this on the people that had those children. When you bring children in this world, you are supposed to take care of them if you can't, don't bring them in the world don't blame everybody else
You deserve to be fired big back
she's going to have to sue them and make them prove that she did something wrong Sound like its Coverup ...
I don't believe any of them.
NO EXCUSES 1312
His face tho 1:17
I believe you it a cover up
That's how it be sometimes.
The whole system is rigged
🤔SOMETHING SMELLS FISHY.
It’s a cover up. I believe the lady. To close it, she had produced more information. Notice the information is in the middle of the page. Not the top. Poor job of altering.
DFCS lying. Probably the devil himself knows he had one of his minions in that child. The parents though they should have seeked helped. The catholic church would have helped with that for sure. Or they could have given the child to the system. If it came from teachers, someone who has that child for most of the year, the workers should have taken it seriously.
if she caused the death then it's her fault and she knows it
There was nothing she could have done! If there is no proof then the case must be closed!
1:10 Again…the delusions of religion claim another innocent life.
DEI disaster gets promoted to new DEI supervisory position.
Bet you wouldn’t do the job.
Im privileged...how dare they fire me...
Incompetence is what my people strive to be
She certainly doesn't seem to show any remorse for this poor child😢
She should have been fired. They always dragging their feet and doing nothing. No sympathy!
Falsifying documents is a extremely COMMON TACTIC DCF USES. Usually they use it on women with children, not their own workers.
Stop the cap. You cannot believe these people.
I smell BLM in Atlanta
I believe her .
