Former Foster Child Who was Raped, Tortured, and Abused for Decades Found Dead – Leaves Behind Two Children

In 2019 we covered the horrendous story that was uncovered by investigative reporter Kathy Curran working in Boston for WCVB ABC 5 who discovered that the foster and adoptive home run by Susan and Raymond Blouin in Oxford, Massachusetts was torturing children, including locking them up in dog cages, and sexually abusing them. She interviewed some of the former foster children, some who have now filed lawsuits against the Blouins, and these former foster children talked about the "house of horrors" that they grew up in. The truly evil part of this story is that the State of Massachusetts knew what was going on in this home, as the foster father had already been convicted of child sex abuse, and yet they allowed it to continue. Kathy's investigation into this story has continued since we published this report back at the end of 2019, and her work clearly shows that this is "business as usual" in the Massachusetts foster care system, and that what happened with the Blouins was not a "rare" incident. One of the things Kathy Curran's investigative work has uncovered, is that the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families (DCF) has a "secret list" of people "in the system" who are suspected as child abusers, and that there are over 40,000 people on that list, including the Blouins who were registered foster parents!! Last month (August, 2023), four of the children who had to live through this horror won a $7 million settlement against the State. But one of those children will not be able to make use of that settlement, because she was found dead, leaving behind two daughters. Her death is apparently being reported as a suicide or "drug overdose," but her mother has a different opinion: "They killed my daughter is what they did," Gaulin said. "If it wasn't for them, Kristine would be alive today."
