Letter: Children deserve our protection

I was appalled to read the
Monitor’s March 2 front page story describing the latest allegations of physical and sexual abuse by 150 workers at the state run Sununu Youth Center in Manchester. Of great concern is the statement “systemic, governmental child abuse that occurred was allowed to occur because there wasn’t sufficient oversight, and the state was institutionally negligent,” from Rus Riley, lawyer suing the state of NH on behalf of adults allegedly abused as youth at the Sununu Youth Center.
It is unclear where this investigation stands as later, the article states some of the charges were dropped and the state (of NH) was granted extensions, then filed a motion to dismiss the case. There is more to this story which the public should learn.
