In April a team of reporters from the Washington Post were rewarded the 2002
Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting for a series of articles on the
deaths of 229 boys and girls who died while under the supervision of
Washington, D.C.’s child protection system between 1993 and 2000.  In a year
long investigation the Post reporters obtained records documenting the
deaths of 180 of the 229 children. “Some children lost their lives in
accidents or shootings on the streets. Others succumbed to disease.”
Another forty boys and girls lost their lives when workers failed to take
key preventive action or placed children in unsafe homes or institutions.
