From Ontario, Canada, “a Picton, Ont., man is facing 20 charges following a provincial police investigation into allegations of wrongdoing in connection with the operation of an agency that placed foster children in homes.

OPP say they began an investigation in early 2016 into the operations of the former Prince Edward County Children’s Aid Society between 2002 and 2010.

They say it involved a review of previous abuse investigations and convictions, trial transcripts and the outcome of subsequent civil proceedings between 2013 and 2016.

OPP say officers then conducted additional interviews, executed search warrants and seized evidence.

They say 67-year-old William Sweet is charged with 10 counts each of criminal negligence causing bodily harm and failing to provide the necessaries of life.

Police said Wednesday in a release that they would not comment on specific details of the allegations.”
