Advocates are calling for an investigation into the death last week of an autistic foster child at a Sea Cliff group home.
At a news conference Thursday, advocates said they were outraged by the March 18 death of 17-year-old Annie Brown, who was autistic and non-verbal, unable to express herself.
Suffolk County's Department of Social Services, which will cooperate with the probe, says there's no indication as of yet that any abuse or neglect occurred in Brown's case.
