A: I believe "cps [can] right a closer letter and not use everyone’s legal name in the state of Minnesota." In some cases protecting someone's identity may be important.

I am sorry, but it's hard to determine what exactly occurred. Apparently, CPS closed a case involving sexual abuse allegations against Jain Doe, but Jain Doe is referred to as Cookie. Feel free to consult with an attorney if you feel clarification is needed.
