This might be the strangest thing you’ve seen in a long time.
The set up is this:
One day before going to the
hospital, Ford shocked lawmakers and observers with an off-topic tirade that
lasted nearly two minutes in a committee meeting that was focused on the state
Department of Children's Services.
The hearing was about a performance
audit that showed the Division of Child Protective Services did not complete
some investigations of child deaths within the 60 days as set out in state
policy.
But Ford pressed DCS officials about
death certificates and other matters that seemed irrelevant to the hearing,
even though they repeatedly told her the agency has nothing to do with death
certificates.
