Oh, yes accountability. That's why Scopetta was promoted by Bloomberg to fire chief while the following cases festered: The list is a heartbreaking reminder of the agency's grave responsibility: Inez Bennett, 7, found dead in her family's Bronx apartment with a smashed jaw and hot water burns, cuts and bruises covering her body; Signifagance Oliver, 4, drowned in the bathtub by her mother in an exorcism ritual; Sylena Herrnkind, 3, beaten to death by her mother in the Staten Island home she shared with four siblings; Sidney Achan, 2, who died from multiple skull fractures and brain injuries; and Kyron Hamilton, 15 months, beaten to death by his mother who said the baby was bothering her while she watched television. A Brooklyn man was charged with second-degree murder in the death of De Andrew Monroe, the 15-month-old son of his girlfriend. According to police, the baby was shaken to death because he would not stop crying. If the Administration for Children's Services is......
You won't remember any uproar in the press at that time because there was none.
Scopetta got to wear his fireman's hat and as an afterthought a replacement for him was sought.

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg vowed yesterday to punish any city workers who are found to have mishandled the case"Punish" how? By frowning at them?
Government employees almost never experience genuine consequences for failing to do their jobs. Even when they commit felonies, they're still on the payroll as they head off to jail.

Good news: Murders in NYC are down.
Bad news: Murders of Cops and Kids aren't.
Of course, the cocktail party circuit in this town is saving its moral outrage for George Bush and the NSA.
Death penalty for cop killers.
Zero tolerance for child abusers.
