TYC report show uninvestigated abuse

AUSTIN (KXAN) - The Senate Finance Committee questioned managers with the Texas Youth Commission after a new report surfaced. The report claims that hundreds of abuse allegations were never properly investigated within the TYC. The state had ordered an overhaul with the TYC on this issue.

The sound box did not work during the hearing. Since the committee was first briefed on Hurricane Ike, much more will be discussed on the TYC later Wednesday afternoon. Lawmakers want to see what will happen before they designate funds for the agency during the upcoming legislative session.
