I had a very nice meeting with Kanga's Residential Treatment Center (RTC) team. 
They were unable to confirm if her latest exploit actually occured, they are unsure if she deluded herself into thinking it happened or if she is trying to manipulate by pretending it happened. They also decided that it didn't matter and she has been consequenced as if it did happen!!
Her consequences are finally at the level that I had requested months ago. And it seems like staff is finally all on board. They said that my complaint led to two meetings (one with higher ups and one with Kanga-direct staff) and it came to light that some staff didn't really understand the plan and others hadn't bought into the plan. They promise that everyone is now on the same page.
Her therapist (who is great!) made sure that the entire team knew that Kanga has rejected the plan and stated that she will do what she wants and screw the rules.
Treatment goal has been changed from "Kanga shall learn appropriate sexual behavior." to "Kanga shall learn that there are consequences for making inappropriate sexual choices." Prior to 18, the goal is that she learns which behaviors are considered illegal and develop enough respect/fear of the law to stay on the legal side.
Of course, right after that great meeting, I tell them she is interviewing tomorrow for a transfer to another Residential Treatment Center (RTC). They did say they understood completely.
