OKLAHOMA CITY -- The head of the state agency that investigates child welfare
complaints is under investigation himself after his son was burned on a family
trip.
Howard Hendrick, director of the Department of Human Services, confirmed the
investigation Tuesday and said he is cooperating fully with authorities. The
state attorney general is investigating.
"I would love it if I had been the one burned," Hendrick said.
His 13-year-old son was injured while they were burning brush at a lake house
over the Fourth of July. The investigation apparently stems from an allegation
that Hendrick didn't promptly seek emergency medical treatment. Hendrick said
they were in a remote area about 45 miles from the nearest hospital when the
accident happened.
"I actually called immediately and talked to a doctor - within an hour of the
event I talked to a doctor," Hendrick said. The teen was taken to see a doctor
the following morning, Hendrick said.
"He's doing well," Hendrick said. "I think he will fully recover."
Hendrick declined to discuss details about how the accident happened or to
describe the extent of his son's injuries. "I don't want to comment on an open
investigation," he said.

Hendrick said it's his understanding that the complaint against him was
anonymous. His agency normally investigates child welfare complaints, but
because the investigation involves him, it was referred to Oklahoma Attorney
General Drew Edmondson.
