Multiple Arizona Department of Child Safety (DCS) employees were reportedly fired last month for wearing pink shirts printed with “Professional Kidnapper” on the front and “Do you know where your children are?” on the back, AZ Central reports. When children are taken into state custody, parents and critics of the agency have been known to accuse Child Safety personnel of being “kidnappers.” The staffers are said to have worn the shirts during work hours.
