What can be inferred from this excerpt from Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens?

Occasionally, when there was some more than usually interesting inquest upon a parish child who had been overlooked in turning up a bedstead, or inadvertently scalded to death when there happened to be a washing-though the latter accident was very scarce, anything approaching to a washing being of rare occurrence in the farm-the jury would take it into their heads to ask troublesome questions, or the parishioners would rebelliously affix their signatures to a remonstrance.

A. Workhouse authorities were extremely careless in their duties.

B. Parishioners wrongly criticized parish officials.

C. The legal system carefully monitored parish affairs.

D. Parish children were extremely weak due to poor nourishment.

    A. Workhouse authorities were extremely careless in their duties

    This is because the passage doesn't say anything about children being weak due to poor nourishment nor parishioners wrongly criticizing their own officials, and if the legal system carefully monitored parish affairs then children wouldn't be getting scalded to death or overlooked.
