Episode Details

A 13-year-old Arizona girl with special needs, Melony Granados, died after police say she was kept in a makeshift cage filled with feces and subjected to years of horrific neglect while living with her grandmother, Virginia Lujan, and mother, Jamie Hodges. Newly released bodycam and interrogation footage shows first responders desperately trying to save Melony as investigators uncovered what they described as a "house of horrors," while Lujan insisted she was overwhelmed caring for multiple grandchildren and claimed she had done her best. Law&Crime’s Chris Stewart is On the Case.
