The Ministry of Gender Children and Social Protection (MoGCSP) says its attention has been drawn to an alleged act of rape committed by its Child Welfare Officer assigned in Maryland County. Child Welfare Officer Francis K. Wallace was alleged to have raped and impregnated his 17 year old adopted daughter. According to a MoGCSP release, the survivor lived with Francis as her guardian from 2013. The release said Francis’ fiancé informed the family and a meeting was called, during which he denied abusing the girl. The MoGCSP has condemned the Child Welfare Officer for this shameful act and is urging the police to immediately have him arrested, investigated and prosecuted.
