Season 5
Published 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Aston Starkey, 13, was found malnourished and unresponsive in a Birmingham motel. His mother, Serena Starkey, vanished before facing a murder charge.
In Texas, 25-year-old Reese Louise Myers left her toddler alone—no diaper, no sitter—while she drove 150 miles for a Hinge date.
Two children.
Two states.
Two cases of pure neglect.
And no one stepped in until it was too late.
