Lawsuit by the Hernandez Family

Last year, Reason magazine published an article about the Hernandezes, whose children had been taken away from them on what appeared to be bogus accusations of child abuse, while their real medical problems were being ignored. Now, after being acquitted, Mr. and Mrs. Hernandez have have filed a lawsuit. If what I have read about the case is true, I hope that they are awarded a large sum in restitution, even if it comes from fellow Georgia taxpayers who were not directly culpable for the injustices they suffered. It will be better if the DFCS employees, doctors, and law enforcement officers involved end up having to pay substantial sums out of their own pockets.
