New information about a controversial case we first told you about Tuesday. An Adams County couple is upset that police and social services were called after they contacted the Rocky Mountain Poison Control Center.
They were worried their two-year-old son might have gotten into some medicine. Social Services ended up taking the couple's two children into temporary protective custody.
The Rocky Mountain Poison Control Center says they do not automatically call police, but are required to report cases of suspected child abuse or neglect. They say they cannot comment on specific cases, but say they had several phone contacts with the parents and, after the Medical Director was informed of the circumstances, he decided to report it.
They say they receive over 350,000 calls a year and feel they need to call police in extremely rare cases.
