AG, O'Brien spar over child abuse officials Posted: 10 Apr 2012 12:01 PM PDT AG, O'Brien spar over child abuse officials Attorney General Michael Delaney wants a House committee to back away from questioning New Hampshire workers in charge of investigating abuse and neglect allegations involving children. Delaney wrote House Speaker William O'Brien on Monday raising concerns over questions the Redress of Grievance Committee sent to the Division for Children, Youth and Families, which investigates abuse and neglect allegations.
