Re: child protective investigation
Yes you absolutely must comply with CPS requests, particularly if you have other children in the home. Be EXTREMELY careful about what is said because no doubt, you will also be considered for criminal investigation. You should perhaps talk to a criminal defense attorney who handles CPS matters. I strongly suggest Jerry Hernandez. Tell him I sent you. You can get his name on the AZBar website.
