Warnings went unheeded, subjecting a foster child to a decade of abuse

· Who was at fault? Everyone
· Abused girl appears to have strong claim against state
· DSHS documents on Lewis run more than 800 pages

It took 10 years for the state of Washington to decide Chornice Lewis
was an unfit foster mother.

The price of official inertia was a young girl's vision.

Lewis, 33, is awaiting trial on two charges of assault, including
torture. Her plea: not guilty.

The victim: her claimed cousin and foster daughter, now 16, who lived
with Lewis for a decade in Tacoma and South King County.

State records show the girl was abused for years: beaten, burned, locked
in a storage closet and a car trunk, and partially blinded with
hypodermic needles.

Her torment was no secret.

Hundreds of pages of investigative files show teachers, neighbors and
police officers repeatedly warned foster care workers about the girl's
suspicious injuries and her dubious denials of mistreatment.

Q: What happened at home to cause your face to get hurt?

A: It didn't happen at home.

Q: Your teacher said that you came in that morning with your face hurt.

Look greg, I understand you have some very special abilities and I'm
sure Noesy appreciated them but you really are lacking in other
areas. I would suggest sticking with what you do well. A website on
cat training maybe? It may lead into something, you could take your
skills to Hollywood and be the cat trainer of the stars, maybe even
work for Michael
Jackson.

If Greg was smart he would teach the cat to lick stamps so it could
get a job at the post officechuckle I wonder if his parents ever got
over the windfall they missed out on,their prolly kicking each other
in the ass for not selling Greg to a circus when he was a baby.
