Fatal Care: How a teen was killed in his foster home - The Fifth Estate

Published 2021-02-19
The death of 15-year-old David Roman in an Ontario foster home has exposed troubling cracks in the for-profit system of child care. The Fifth Estate's Bob McKeown shows how a private company is accused of hiring an inexperienced foster parent and providing not enough support for the care of at-risk youth, leading to tragic consequences. Even those in charge of the system acknowledge there are fundamental oversight problems that need to be fixed. Fatal Care looks at how much scrutiny the government is providing to the for-profit foster-care business.
