The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has officially approved a $20 million settlement for the family of 4-year-old Noah Cuatro, who was tortured and murdered by his parents in 2019. This landmark decision, approved on Tuesday, comes after a lawsuit was filed by Noah’s great-grandmother, Eva Hernandez, which alleged that the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) failed to carry out a judge’s order to remove the young boy from his abusive parents just weeks before his death.
