The FBI is investigating complaints of abuse and neglect at a residential treatment center for deaf and autistic children, NBC News reports.
The probe follows an NBC investigation that uncovered claims of abuse of 10 patients at NDA Behavioral Health System in Mt. Dora, Fla.
“He’s been broken,” said Hannah, who alleges in her lawsuit that her son was physically abused and inappropriately touched. “And our whole family has been broken.”
“If they do this to him –- and he can talk,” she said, “think of what they do to the ones who can’t talk.”
Negligence led to three deaths, according to lawsuits and a state report.
One employee said she was told not to call police.
