FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -- The state has placed five Hardin County-based
social workers on paid leave for 60 days, and two others have been put
on notice they face major disciplinary action.

The actions result from an investigation by the inspector general for
the Cabinet for Health and Family Services. The probe found that
Hardin-based social workers lied in court, altered documents and mocked
parents as they removed children from families.

The investigation began after two Louisville-based child advocacy groups
revealed problems with inappropriate child removals and state adoptions.

A Hardin grand jury declined to indict the social workers earlier this
month, but criticized the cabinet for letting the workers involved in
the problems to remain on the job.

Cabinet spokeswoman Vikki Franklin would not name the seven workers,
saying that the disciplinary action was a personnel matter. She would
not say why two were allowed to stay on the job or whether any of the
workers was a supervisor.
