Good documentary on Netflix about this....

I don’t believe in the death penalty, but some stories do make me waver.

The Atlantic actually did a much better job. The documentary left out some key details. The fact that Pearl had 2 other children that were in DCF protection custody was never mentioned. Also a councilor Barbara Dixon also did not report the abuse at the direction of a supervisor was left out of the documentary. Dixon was not charged with a crime because she agreed to testify against her coworkers. Both of these facts made this case much worse and truly showed the utter incompetence of DCF. In fact after watching this documentary I concluded DCF should be disbanded. Calling them is a waste of time or worse a danger to the child.

Yes, it was heartbreaking to find out how everyone, except his teacher and a security guard at the food stamp office failed this poor baby.

Never will understand why somebody would voluntarily watch a documentary of such disgusting abuse.

I watched this. So tragic. SW didn’t do their job, took the word of his mom and the step dad. Two weeks after he died, same thing happened to another child in the same county.
