How Could You? Hall of Shame-Florida DCF worker Katrina Darlene Dillon
This will be an archive of heinous actions by those involved in child welfare, foster care and adoption. We forewarn you that these are deeply disturbing stories that may involve sex abuse, murder, kidnapping and other horrendous actions.
From Florida, chalk up yet another arrest of a DCF worker . This time ex-employee Katrina Darlene Dillon 46, has been arrested on “charges that she falsified records and stole funds, according to a Florida Department of Law Enforcement report.” She faces “one count of petit theft, one count of grand theft, one count of official misconduct and one count of falsifying records. The alleged violations occurred in November 2011. Dillon resigned her position as a case worker during that same month.
An investigation by DCF’s Office of Inspector General showed that Dillon allegedly falsified visitation documents, claiming she had completed an in-home visit. Investigators also allege that Dillon used her state fuel card and phone for personal usage.
She did not reimburse the state for $4,497.50 for personal phone calls or for a $30.01 charge to her state fuel card for a gas purchase for her personal vehicle, FDLE agents allege.
The agents verified that Dillon document that she checked on a child at specific times when in fact she had not, the report said.
She was booked into the Palm Beach County Jail.”
