Four DHS workers involved in the death of 14-year old Danieal Kelley  are now being shown the door.

The four employees — Shawn Davis, Ingrid Hawk, Martha Poller, and Valerie Mond — had been named but not indicted the Danieal Kelly grand jury report.  

Now DHS Commissioner Anne Marie Ambrose says all four will be gone.  

Poller was allowed to retire, Mond allowed to resign while Hawk and Davis are being fired.  

DHS spokeswoman Alicia Taylor says Ambrose felt the actions of the four were unconscionable:

“Given their egregious disregard for their professional responsibilities, and the role that it played in Danieal Kelly’s death, she felt that she had no other choice but to rule the way she did.”

Now, Taylor says, the department hopes to move on, though never forget:

“Danieal Kelly will always be remembered in the department.  Because of her death, there’s been a major reform effort underway at DHS.”

Nine others face charges in Kelly’s death, including two DHS workers and the girl’s parents (
