More affirmative action justice. Judge set bail at $30,000 so $3000 and she walks. If she was white, bail would have been $1 million.

aug 5 2025 A child protective services worker in Alabama has been arrested after a 3-year-old boy in her care died while left for hours in her car in 108-degree heat — and she’s already been cut loose on bail.

Department of Human Resources employee Kela Stanford, 54, was charged last Friday over Ke’Torrius Starks Jr.’s tragic July 22 demise in Birmingham that saw him left alone in the vehicle for five hours in the searing heat, police said.

Stanford, who works for a third-party firm contracted by the department, had been tasked with taking little Ke’Torrius to a supervised visit with his biological father the day he died. The worker had picked the boy up from a day care where he’d been dropped off by his foster family ahead of the scheduled visit, according to authorities.
After the visit, Stanford allegedly ran errands — including stopping at a grocery and tobacco store — instead of taking the child back to the day care.

The worker then drove to her own home, where she left Ke’Torrius buckled inside the car with the windows rolled up — as temperatures soared to 108 degrees, cops allege. She was released on $30,000 bail that same day, jail records show.
