An I-Team investigation into your safety has uncovered details of a near collision between two commuter trains that those involved wanted to hush up.
Captured by the lens of a CBS4 News undeocover camera, a day care worker at Naranja Prep Academy in Homestead turned her back to chat with a man outside the playground fence. Undercover pictures showed a small boy as he tried to jump, then as he falls nearly six feet to the ground off the top of a jungle--gym. It is an event that goes unnoticed to everyone but the I-Team.
The CBS4 I-Team compiled two year's worth of state and county inspection records for every day care in South Florida and discovered dozens of day cares that have trouble complying with basic rules designed to keep children safe. You can search that data on an interactive map prepared with the help of experts from the National Institute of Computer Assisted Reporting (NICAR) and Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE.) Just click on the link accompanying this story and search for day cares and their inspection records, by name, county or street address.

A CBS4 I-Team investigation has uncovered troubling questions about how Billions of your tax dollars are spent in Farm Aid each year.

It all sounds like the plot of a movie or dime store novel. But, CBS4 I-Team investigator Stephen Stock discovered it's not fiction but the plot of a Miami-Dade Ethics Commission Report on the actions of Miami Beach's city commission. Strippers, money, alcohol and the Miami Beach city commission.
It's become the new Miami vice. Cocaine Cowboys turned to Highway Hijackers, and it is now the costliest crime in America. This crime means more in losses in America than every robbery, larceny, grand theft and burglary combined, but few people have ever heard about it. The CBS4 I-Team uncovered what some cops call America's next big Homeland Security crisis.
Yet another near collision on a runway was reported in South Florida, coming less than a day after an exclusive CBS4 investigation into close calls in our skies and on our airport runways. The CBS4 I-Team has learned that only hours after our I-Team investigation aired, it happened again. This time it happened at Miami International Airport. This latest close call involved a twin engine turboprop and a Boeing 757. Sources tell the CBS4 I-Team that around 10 a.m. Tuesday, an American Eagle Airlines AT-72 made a wrong turn onto runway 26 L. At the same time the 757, operated by UPS, was being cleared for take off, doing 50 knots down the very same runway 26L--headed straight for the turboprop when air traffic controllers intervened and stopped both planes.
There's a growing crisis in the nation's airports, but it has nothing to do with security. Instead, it's your safety in the sky that's at stake. The CBS4 I-Team spent the past four months digging through records many people don't know exist and found there have been more close calls at local airports than passengers know.
The CBS4 I-Team has learned of new, potentially wide-ranging problems with FEMA trailers and the formaldehyde fumes in them. We've reported how they've been banned by FEMA already, but I-Team has learned that could create a major housing shortage should a storm hit here this summer.
