KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Missouri attorney general and the state’s child welfare office have filed yet another petition to immediately shut down Agape Boarding School — only this time, they want another judge.
The new petition filed Monday spells out detailed allegations of abuse and neglect made by current students who secretly sought out child welfare workers on the campus in recent days. It states several reasons why the school should close.
The attorney general’s office had earlier asked that a hearing scheduled in the case for Monday be delayed.
