FOSTER MOM
CHARGED
Denver District Attorney Bill
Ritter, Jr. filed a formal charge today in the case of a teenage girl
who was found tied in a closet last month.
Yolanda Royal (DOB: 7-17-65),
who had foster care of the girl, has been charged with child
abuse (M2). On June 11, 2003, the 15-year-old
developmentally disabled girl was found bound in a closet by a
social worker who was conducting a scheduled visit.
Royal was issued a Criminal Summons
and Complaint earlier this week. She has been summoned to appear
in Denver County Court, room 11S, on August 11, 2003 at 8 a.m.
to be arraigned on the charge.

(There is no mug shot in this case because the defendant was
served with a Criminal Summons and Complaint.)
