Summary
Pennsylvania’s governor’s office is keeping secret a two-year-old investigation into the Department of Aging — a move raising alarms about transparency and accountability. While the Office of State Inspector General produced a damning report on how the state protects older adults from abuse and neglect, the administration refuses to confirm whether it exists or what it found. Unlike past governors who released such findings, Shapiro’s team is shielding the report under the guise of confidentiality — despite no clear legal basis for such secrecy. The probe, which examined whether county-level oversight was improved since a 2018 scandal, comes as Spotlight PA uncovers serious failures in abuse investigations. With no public updates from the inspector general’s office and the Department of Aging claiming ignorance of the report, critics fear vulnerable seniors are being left in the dark — and at risk.
