News reports are saying the shooter was not a teenage, but a 20-something female.

Three children and three staff members were shot and killed at a private school in Nashville, Tennessee, according to officials. The shooting unfolded Monday morning at the Covenant School, a Christian school for students in preschool through sixth grade. The female suspect, who appeared to be in her teens, was shot and killed by authorities in a lobby area on the second floor of the school, police said at a news conference. https://abcnews.go.com/US/multiple-patients-reported-amid-active-aggressor-nashville-school/story?id=98152651

Journalists do not credit their sources unless they have permission. Before a story is written or aired, the editor approves and the editor determines, in part, whether the source is credible. Some times, editors will question a source and either ask the journalist to get a 2nd source or confirmation from elsewhere that the source being used is credible.

I'd say you got that wrong.

Yes, it is pretty simple. Our department NEVER had an emergency placement order turned down or an emergency hearing held for a minority race. We NEVER had a white child removed on an emergency hearing without an emergency hearing being held. The Child Welfare System is biased against people of color in very many ways. It's just very easy to remove children of color and it's difficult to remove white children. It should be difficult to remove children, whether regardless of color. CPS and social services are required to do everything possible to keep families together. They are mandated to provide services to that end, that includes financial assistance, rehabilitation services, housing assistance -- whatever it necessary. If that fails, then children are placed in care. If they are placed in care, the first choice of placement is with other family members, grandparents, or aunts and uncles. If they are not suitable then foster care. None of that was done in this case.
