What is the name of your state? Kentucky

If someone reported someone else for child abuse to Child Protective Services, can the suspected abusers get the reporters name and stuff? Thanks

My response:

Sure. If the investigation culminates into a hearing, or other court case, then the "accused" has a right to "confront" their accuser - - to determine veracity and motivation.
