This episode is a heavy one and for that we apologize! Dani talks about Lacey Fletcher, who died in a horrific way due to her parents’ neglect. Sarah covers the story of the Turpin siblings, whose parents’ extreme neglect took decades away from the lives of the children.

If you or someone you know is experiencing neglect or abuse, please seek help.
