I’ve written on the sorry state of Florida’s DCF (Now called something else...as in rebranding.) The data that I used, newspaper reports and state board reports used to be easily accessible on Google. I know from a friend that the state investigators just wrote a report stating the department currently is unable to find some 450 children who are supposedly under its care. (The number of unaccounted for children out of 44,000 average per year is usually around 400.) This data is no longer readily found.

A simple query such as 2002 Florida DCF dead children turns up quite a few hits. E.g., here's a 47-page PDF on the subject. And here's an old CNN story, in which the text is still there, but the images have rotted out.

A lot of times, newspapers will delete old stories. E.g., an AP story on DCF and the Rilya Wilson case was posted here on FR in 2002. The story link now 404's if you follow it to naplesnews.com. However, you can easily find several versions of the same Catherine Wilson story online.
