San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Mara Rodriguez also urged community members to report anyone suspected of abuse.
“Whether it is a biologist, family home, foster home, a helping home, any abuse or neglect can be done at home,” she told KTLA.
“We would rather do an investigation and find that everything in that home is good than discovering abuse in a few years.”
