  • Summary

  • Welcome to another episode of Behind the Headlines, where we feature experts and journalists discussing a variety of topics.

    In this latest episode, Molly Parker, a reporter for Lee Enterprises Public Service Journalism team, talks about her reporting of the state of institutional care for people with developmental disabilities in the state of Illinois.

    The Illinois State Police division that looks into alleged criminal wrongdoing by state employees spends more time investigating workers at seven residential centers than it does at any other department’s workplaces, including state prisons.

    Molly discusses the types of abuse reported and what is being done to improve the situation.
