CPS cited mother's mental health before Mechanicville killings

Original: CPS cited mother’s mental health as 'safety factor' before Mechanicville killings

Child Protective Services had flagged a Mechanicville mother's mental health as a 'safety factor' before a fatal incident involving her children. The revelation, reported by CBS6 Albany, raises questions about what interventions were made after the agency's concerns were documented and whether the deaths could have been prevented.

Why now: New reporting reveals that child welfare officials had previously identified safety concerns tied to the case.
