In re D.P. CA2/7
The Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services filed a petition on behalf of D.P., A.P. and K.P. on March 20, 2020 pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 300, subdivisions (a) (nonaccidental infliction of serious physical harm), (b) (failure to protect) and (j) (sibling abuse). On September 9, 2020 the juvenile court sustained the petition, finding true allegations under subdivisions (a) and (b) that Armando and Karina had a history of domestic violence in the presence of the children; Armando had struck Karina with his fist, slapped her face and pushed her to the ground; and Karina failed to protect the children by allowing Armando to reside in the home and have unlimited access to them. The court also found true allegations under subdivisions (b) and (j) that Armando had physically abused each of the three children and Karina had failed to protect them from that abuse.
