Episode Details

A 13-year-old girl endured repeated sexual assaults over five nights at a New Mexico youth shelter, allegedly ignored by staff who knew — and did nothing. One witness walked away, the incident later mislabeled as consensual. Despite her sister’s report, management prioritized avoiding scandal over protecting her, removing her from the facility without intervention or support. Now in foster care, she seeks justice for the trauma inflicted. The state agency claims shelters are last-resort placements, but declined to comment on the lawsuit.
