Star editorial: State must improve oversight of group homes

In an editorial in today's edition, the Kansas City Star says the state must improve its oversight of group homes and it questions Attorney General Jay Nixon's assertion that convicted felon Robert Dupont was "secretly" operating the Anderson Guest House and three other area Guest House facilities:

Attorney General Jay Nixon has filed a lawsuit against DuPont and his wife, LaVerne DuPont, and River of Life Ministries, saying that DuPont had been secretly operating the business.
It doesn't seem much of a secret, however.

The Star editorial echoes State Auditor Claire McCaskill's call for improved inspection of state facilities and better staffing.
