"An incident last year triggered alarms among child welfare workers and helped lead to the creation of innovative new guidelines on how San Francisco police officers should deal with minors during the critical moments when their parents are arrested. The goal of the guidelines is to ensure that the children will not be forgotten, left alone or dropped off with strangers."
