Are the accountability systems put in place within our public service agencies working best as an escape route for those elected to govern the agency or as a tool of transparency for the interest of the people who elected them?

You may be right.
A grandmother has just filed suit in a local court against the school and social service agencies.
A few years ago, her mentally impaired granddaughter died in a fire in her home. Her parents had shackled her to her bed, and she couldn't escape the fire. According to the suit, reports of child abuse had been filed for at least a couple of years, but social workers hadn't done much to keep the child safe.

This dramatic case in our area will probably increase the amount of attention agencies pay to their clients. Accountability rules need to be strengthened and enforced.
In defense of the system, the child was very difficult. She should have been removed from the home and probably institutionalized. That costs money! We need to increase taxes to pay for adequate supervision and facilities for the mentally/emotionally impaired.
