A 10-year-old girl.
A home she should have been safe in.
And a system that failed her.
In 2011, Ame Deal was killed inside the very place she was supposed to be protected — her home. What was first reported as a “hide and seek” accident quickly unraveled into something far more disturbing.
This episode breaks down what really happened, the abuse Ame endured, and how multiple people in her life were involved. It also raises the question — how did this go on for so long, even after CPS involvement and reports of abuse?
This is not just about what happened to Ame.
This is about awareness.
About protection.
About the systems and people who are supposed to step in — and what happens when they don’t.
