Nope, it's pretty much blanket immunity for CPS workers in Wisconsin. I'll have to dig out the case when I get back to work on Monday (it was decided at least 10 years ago, if I remember correctly), but the case I remember gives the department and the workers a total pass, or very close to it. Ditto for P & P workers.

I suspect you are not familiar with Calabretta v. Floyd, which was decided in the 9th Federal Circuit in 1999. WI is not in the 9th Circuit, so their CPS employees me still be acting AS IF they have blanket immunity, but they are skating on thin ice because other Circuits can, and likely will, look to Calabretta as a precedent.
