16-year-old Sylvia Likens had her entire life ahead of her. A confident, outgoing, and pretty girl whose parents worked very busy schedules far away from home in order to make ends meet. As a result, Sylvia lived with her caregiver, Gertrude Baniszewki, who at first treated Sylvia and her sister, Jenny, very kindly. However, due to late caregiving payments from Sylvia's parents, Gertrude began verbally and physically abusing Sylvia. Sylvia was tortured in some of the most brutal ways imagined, which lead to her death.
Evil exists, and this is proof of it.
