Based on interviews conducted 1 out of 3 staff members stated that as they were directing C1 back to the bathroom they may have accidentally bomped the top of C1s head. Based on video footage, LPA observed C1 walking towards S1 and S1 reaching arm out holding clipboard pointing towards the bathroom, C1 is seen standing underneath the clipboard and the LPA observed S1 bomping C1 on top of the head. LPA did not observe S1 bomping C1 on top of the head with force or malice.

Based on the information obtained during this investigation, it has been determined that although the allegations may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violations did or did not occur. Therefore, the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED.

An exit interview was conducted, and this report was reviewed with the Director, Lina Borja, and a copy was provided. Appeal rights were discussed and provided during the exit interview. A Notice of Site visit was given, and Acting Director understands that it must remain posted for 30 days.
