Episode Details

New details reveal that Tom Phillips, the fugitive dad who died in a police shootout after keeping his kids on the run for nearly four years, had homeschooling exemptions approved by the New Zealand Education Ministry before his disappearance. The ministry granted exemptions based on Phillips teaching plan, but there are no routine check-in visits unless concerns are raised. The release of this information has sparked questions about the approval process and potential safeguards for high-risk cases.
