On December 2, 2015, 23-year-old U.S. Army specialist Jeanie Ditty called 911 and calmly requested an ambulance for her two-year-old daughter, Macy Grace, who she said had thrown up in her sleep and aspirated. As soon as Macy Grace arrived at the hospital, medical staff took one look at the bruises covering her from head to toe and called the Fayetteville Police, reporting probable child abuse. Tragically, Macy died two days later.

This is the story of a young mother with a very slippery grasp on the concept of truth who told multiple stories about the events of that morning. It’s also the story of a bright-eyed little girl who brought joy into the lives of everyone who loved her and who, over eight years after her murder, still hasn’t received justice.

This is part one of the mind-boggling story of Macy Grace Ditty.

Three years ago, in episode 69, I told you the story of six-year-old Corey Micciolo, whose mother fought for months to save her son from his abusive father. Despite her pleas to New Jersey’s Division of Child Protection and Permanency and the family court system, Christopher Gregor retained primary custody of Corey. On March 20, 2021, surveillance cameras in the gym at Christopher’s apartment complex captured horrific footage of Christopher forcing Corey to run on a treadmill, causing him to fall repeatedly. Less than two weeks later, Corey died in the emergency room with a tear to his heart caused by blunt force trauma. 

Christopher Gregor’s trial is currently taking place in Ocean County Court. In this episode, I had the honor of discussing this disturbing case with two former prosecutors who also happen to be podcasters I’ve deeply admired for years: Jim Clemente and Francey Hakes of Best Case, Worst Case. 

This is a special crossover episode of Suffer the Little Children and Best Case, Worst Case.

Over the last two episodes, I’ve told you the story of three-year-old Arabella Parker, who died in November 2019 after severe abuse at the hands of her mother’s boyfriend, Jahrid Burgess. 

For this episode, I was honored to speak with three people close to Arabella’s case. First, you’ll hear my recent conversation with the Sunbury Daily Item’s crime reporter, Francis Scarcella, who followed Arabella’s story from the very beginning. Then, you’ll hear me talk with two of Arabella’s maternal aunts, Samantha Delcamp’s sisters, Mandy Kegler and Sarah Delcamp, two amazingly strong women who’ve endured the death of their beloved niece, the imprisonment of their sister, and the cruelty of the public with a great deal of grace. 

This is part 3 of the complex, tragic story of Arabella Parker, retold.

In episodes 35 and 36, back in late 2020, I told you the story of 9-month-old Jacob Landin, a tiny boy with a big laugh and an even bigger personality. Jacob died in April 1987 from a severe traumatic brain injury. When the injury occurred, he was in the care of his mom’s boyfriend, Steven Chavez, who told several different stories to Brenda Landin, medical professionals, and investigators. Despite being the only suspect, failing a polygraph, and reportedly confessing to police, Steven was never prosecuted for Jacob’s murder, and he went on to abuse and terrorize Jacob’s mom and brother for years afterward.

For this bonus episode, I spoke again with Eric Carter-Landin, Jacob’s big brother and the host of the True Consequences podcast. We discussed Eric and Brenda’s efforts to get justice for Jacob, the New Mexico Attorney General’s refusal to treat Jacob and his family with the respect they deserve, why they finally decided to name Steven after all these years, and how we can help by getting on board with the current 10 Days of Jacob campaign.

In the last episode, I told you the first part of the story of three-year-old Arabella Parker, who was rushed to the hospital on October 10, 2019, reportedly suffering from a seizure. Because medical staff wasn’t told that the seizure resulted from severe head trauma, the damage was irreparable, and Arabella died on November 22, 2019.

In this episode, I’ll take you through the hearings and the trials of the three people accused of allowing, causing, or covering up the reason for Arabella’s death: her mother, Samantha Delcamp; Samantha’s boyfriend, Jahrid Burgess; and Jahrid’s mother, Christy Willis.

In the next episode, you’ll hear my conversations with several people close to Arabella’s case.

This is part two of the complex, tragic story of Arabella Parker, retold.

Four years ago, in episodes 16 and 17, I told you the tragic story of 3-year-old Arabella Parker. Because that was so early in my podcasting journey, I’m not satisfied with my coverage of her story, so I’m revisiting it in an all-new, comprehensive re-telling as I’ve never told it before: with the help of her family and others. 

On October 10, 2019, Arabella reportedly suffered a seizure at her home in Trevorton, Pennsylvania. At the hospital, doctors immediately suspected child abuse based on her multitude of injuries, which included a head injury so severe that they had to remove part of Arabella’s brain. Her mother’s boyfriend, Jahrid Burgess, was arrested almost immediately. After her mother, Samantha Delcamp, gave multiple conflicting statements to police, to reporters, and even on The Steve Wilkos Show, Samantha was also arrested. When the tiny, beloved red-haired girl died after six weeks on life support, Jahrid and Samantha’s charges were upgraded to homicide.

This is part one of the complex, tragic story of Arabella Parker, retold.

(This episode was originally released in April 2022.)

On the morning of Wednesday, March 18, 2020, police in Bakersfield, California responded to an apartment on a report of an eight-year-old child not breathing. Although Ger’Mya Alexander was rushed to the hospital, she died of her injuries the same day. Her mother’s boyfriend, 37-year-old Clint Mason, who had been caring for Ger’Mya when she was fatally injured, fled on foot and was apprehended the next morning. 

This is the story of a smart, sweet, caring little girl who adored her granny and sometimes got in trouble at school for talking too much. It’s also the story of her unnecessary, brutal death at the hands of a man she should have been able to trust to protect her.

This is the heartbreaking story of Ger’Mya Alexander.

In episodes 87 and 88, I told you the story of four-year-old Judah Morgan. Judah lived for most of his life in a foster care kinship placement with the family of his second cousin, Jenna Hullett. In April of 2021, Judah was returned to his biological parents, Alan Morgan and Mary Yoder, despite multiple red flags and warnings to DCS. Six months later, Alan and Mary were arrested for Judah’s brutal murder.

In this episode, you’ll hear multiple updates to Judah’s story in my most recent conversation with his “real” mom, Jenna Hullett, who is truly one of the most inspiring people I’ve ever known.

These are the most recent updates to the tragic story of Judah Morgan.

On this podcast, I’ve told you the stories of many children whose deaths came at the hands of parents or guardians after extended periods of what can only be described as torture. Intra-familial child torture is a disturbingly common occurrence, and it has a 36% fatality rate for the children affected.

In this episode, you’ll hear my conversation with childhood torture survivor and advocate Ali Davis. Ali survived 19 years of torture at the hands of one of her parents. Her experience led her to create the Pretty Graffiti Foundation to fund humanitarian aid for survivors of non-war-related childhood torture in the U.S.

This is the inspiring story of Ali Davis and the Pretty Grafitti Foundation.

On February 17, 2020, police in Fort Myers, Florida responded to a horrific single-vehicle accident in which a minivan carrying two women and a three-year-old girl veered off the road, hit several palm trees, and flipped over. The little girl, Serenity Robinson, was not in a car seat and was unrestrained. Her mother, Leslie Joe Zeagler, was found to be impaired by multiple controlled substances and survived with minor injuries. Serenity was not so lucky.

Leslie was arrested and charged with manslaughter. Later, Fort Myers police officer Tyler Williams was also charged after prosecutors learned he had pulled Leslie over a month earlier, found illegal drugs in the van, and let her go because he didn’t feel like calling DCF that morning. Even though this officer’s intervention likely would have saved Serenity’s life, a judge dismissed the charges, and the only person prosecuted was her mother.

In this episode, you’ll also hear my conversation with Serenity’s father, Randy Robinson, who hasn’t given up on getting justice for his baby girl.

This is the infuriating story of Serenity Robinson.
