Because We Can't Let Just Any Criminals Take Care of Your Children

The Oklahoman recently reported that the state Department of Human Services has let "child abusers, robbers, wife beaters, prostitutes, a cop shooter, drug dealers and other former criminals work or live at day cares."

But put your mind at ease: DHS now has things under control. The Oklahoman reported yesterday that DHS "will create a small committee to decide which former criminals will be allowed in day cares, instead of relying on the judgment of a single official."
