Complaint Investigation Report

The investigation revealed the following:

In regard of allegation of resident was sexually assaulted while in care, it was alleged that client#1 (C1) was raped by a male staff at the facility. The department conducted interviews with clients from client#1 (C1) to client#3 (C3). All clients could not corroborate the allegation. During the client interview, C1 denied of being sexual abuse or harm done on C1 by anyone at the facility. Per interviews with staff from staff #1 (S1) to staff#7 (S7) including client’s regional center social worker, all staff denied the allegation. As client’s social worker stated, client has a documented history of false allegations. Per record review, client#1 (C1) had a history of fabricating false statements and changing stories around. Therefore, there is not preponderance of evidence to show client was sexually abused by the facility staff while residing at the facility.

Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there’s not preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
