32 | R2 denied pushing R1 but admitted to having previously punched R1 in the mouth. A review of R1’s records and staff reports indicated a history of aggressive behavior. Due to prior altercations between R1 and R2, staff had been instructed to closely supervise their interactions and separate them when necessary. Both S1 and R2 denied that R2 pushed R1 on June 13, 2025, though R2 acknowledged past physical aggression toward R1. Following the incident, former Administrator Julie Nonu offered to assist with transferring R1 to another facility, but R1’s responsible party declined the offer. Based on interviews and record reviews, no witnesses directly observed the fall. Although R2 denied pushing R1, documentation confirms a history of aggressive behavior.
As a result of this investigation, this Department found the allegation to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. A complaint allegation finding of Unsubstantiated meant that although the allegation may have happened or was valid, there was not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. An Exit Interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was provided to the facility via email. A certified copy will be sent to the facility mailing address. |
