This week, Drewby and Yergy head back to Indianapolis to discuss the case of Kinsleigh Welty, a 5-year-old girl who was starved and locked away in a waste filled closet, only to die at the hands of those who were supposed to protect her. Even worse? Several adults, both inside and outside of the home knew what was going on, and no one stepped in to help Kinsleigh. In fact, her own grandmother helped cover up her abuse from CPS.
