In terms of child abuse cases, what are the likely results of a flawed investigation?

What will be an ideal response?


If the investigation is flawed, two outcomes— neither acceptable—are very real possibilities. First is that an innocent person will be suspected or accused of either a crime that did not occur or a crime for which the person has no responsibility. Second, a real crime will remain undetected or un- solved and the person responsible for the fatal maltreatment of the child will never be identified or brought to justice.
