Natalia Grace born with a rare form of dwarfism was adopted from a Ukrainian orphanage at the age of 4 but when that adoptive placement did not work out, Natalia was dropped off at a private adoption agency in Florida where she was then adopted by the Barnett family. What ensues over the next several years from 2010-2014 is a series of abuse, manipulation and neglect. This was a heavily requested case (thanks to all who requested it) and although a popular story- one that is bananas enough we just had to dive in!!

Investigation Discovery released the first three episodes of Natalia’s story in the docuseries, “The Curious Case of Natalia Grace.”  These first three episodes tell the story from the Barnett’s perspective, mainly by Michael Barnett.  Three more episodes were later released from Natalia’s point of view, called “The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks.”
