Bed, Bath & Beyond is in the news for all the wrong reasons. A case has been filed against Elizabeth Miller, the manager of the Bed, Bath & Beyond store in Lexington, Kentucky. Miller refused to help a couple whose three-year-old got trapped in a van! She didn’t let them use the store’s phone to dial 911 citing company policy.
“First Assistant Fayette County Attorney Brian Mattone told the Herald-Leader Thursday that under the duty-to-report statute, everyone has the duty to report dependency, neglect and abuse of a child if they have knowledge of it. Mattone said prosecutors thought that Miller, through witnesses, had knowledge of possible abuse or neglect. Moreover, there is language in the statute that says “nothing should relieve their obligation to report,” Mattone said.”
