Following a thorough investigation into the operations of Kid City USA, a daycare facility located in Pulaski, the local police department has announced additional arrests. Initially, Erica Monique Coleman, a resident of Pulaski, faced charges related to the case. However, as the investigation progressed, four more educators from Kid City USA have been implicated. These individuals—Regina Griggs, Tamera Blake, Brittany Washington, and Patricia Petersen—are now facing charges for failing to report suspected child abuse.
The court proceedings for these four teachers are scheduled to take place on Monday, May 12th, 2025. Authorities continue to pursue the investigation diligently, ensuring that all relevant details are examined. Community members are urged to remain vigilant and report any known or suspected instances of child abuse to the Department of Children’s Services or their local law enforcement agencies.
