HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- U.S. District Judge Janis Graham Jack started Friday's hearing in the decade-long lawsuit against the state's troubled foster care system hopeful that a new commissioner will turn things around at the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. "I know you're going to be a real valuable asset to these children so I'm glad you joined us. You may not be, but I'm glad you came out of retirement to do this," Jack told DFPS commissioner Stephanie Muth, who took over the agency on January 2. But, it wasn't long into the hearing before Judge Jack began grilling the state for its continued failure to keep all children in its care safe, and in some cases alive.
