In this heartbreaking episode of The Forgotten Trail Podcast, we dive into the tragic story of Gabriel Fernandez, an eight-year-old boy whose horrifying abuse and eventual death in 2013 exposed deep failures in the child welfare system. We explore the signs that were missed, the system’s inability to intervene in time, and the court case that followed, holding his abusers accountable. Through this discussion, we shed light on the gaps in child protective services, the responsibility of mandated reporters, and what must change to prevent similar tragedies. Join us as we remember Gabriel and examine how we can fight for justice and reform in child welfare.

🎧 Tune in for a powerful conversation on advocacy, accountability, and the urgent need for systemic change.
