Pete Buttigieg says false CPS report temporarily separated him from his children

Former U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and his husband were temporarily separated from their 4-year-old children after a false report was anonymously filed with Children’s Protective Services.

The Michigan State Police and CPS determined the report was false, Michigan State Police spokesperson Shannon Banner said.

“False reports are dangerous and divert law enforcement officers and Child Protective Services workers from responding to legitimate emergencies and protecting vulnerable children and families,” Banner said.
