The words to the title of this
post should never be used in that order in the English language and make any
sort of sense. Unfortunately, they
do. According to WRAL.com, authorities
arrested a Union County Department of Social Services worker, named Wanda Sue
Larson, and a Monroe man Friday night after their 11-year old foster child was
found handcuffed to the porch with a dead chicken tied around his neck. A deputy was answering a call at the house
next door when he saw the boy.

Moments
later, 57-year-old Dorian Lee Harper appeared on the porch along with another
child who released several large dogs onto the officer.
When
additional officers arrived, they removed five children from the home.
Larson was not home at the time,
but is believed to have been complicit in the mistreatment of the children. She
and Harper had adopted four of the children and were fostering the boy found
handcuffed to the porch. All the kids
are in the custody of another social services agency outside of Union County.
This woman was a supervisor with
DSS, sworn by oath, and paid by the State, to take care of defenseless
children. She was, instead, severely
abusing them, and likely being paid extra by the county and State to foster the
child. Usually before there is any
adoption or fostering, there has to be a home-site investigation and background
check. Apparently, in Union County,
either she did the paperwork without it being audited, or whomever did it
either didn’t visit the home or was complicit in what was going on. I would be
surprised if the State didn’t have a reckoning coming for the Union County
DSS.
