This is beyond tragic. I hope the recent increased notoriety serves to bring forward more information and more witnesses so that justice may be served. My heart goes out to Max’s mom and sister.

I don’t know what that was all about. Some kind of manufactured drama to excite people for a Part 3 ?? There is exciting news though. Remember the little people family the Depauls? Their daughter was close in age to Natalia. Their daughter even made a video defending Natalia a couple years...

True. But I resented the way Dr McLaren was trying to absolve himself of his culpability. That doctor wrote the nastiest letter about Natalia on Michael’s behalf. It was utterly reprehensible and he needs to be held accountable IMO. Also unmentioned in the series was that Dr McLaren actually...

GREAT ANALYSIS!!!

The State was also limited to the time period of July 2014 until 2016 when Natalia moved out of Tippecanoe County. They faced no criminal sanctions for the entire time she was in the 1st or 2nd apartment because of the Statute of Limitations being 5 years. That’s why Michael was acquitted.

The judge didn’t come up with the formula to choose her age. The Barnetts specifically asked the judge to change her birthdate to 1989. They wrote that year in their petition. They wrote that Dr McLaren and social worker Susan Whitten said that year was appropriate. Dr McLaren sure was trying to...

I reached my adult height at age 12 and am above average height. That was such bull when it was asserted that people don’t stop growing until age 18

It wasn’t merely her ego. It was the fact that “returning” an adopted special needs child would run counter to her persona as a person who values special needs children. Knowledge of returning the child would have become public knowledge and THAT would have effected the book deal and movie deal...

While I agree with what you’re saying, as far as it being best for the children for mom to put on a brave face, I also can understand that the fear mom has is so overwhelming that she is simply incapable of doing so which should not be interpreted as a bad mark against mom, even though it will...

What a devastating outcome. She was loved by so many. I didn’t know her but participated in searching for her. When organized searching was put on hold due to deer firearm season there was a feeling that, if she were out there, it was likely that she would be found by one of the numerous hunters...

That definitely sounds like an argument an attorney could persuasively argue in this case!

Thanks Gitana. I hope you find it

NEW PHOTO The earliest known photograph of Natalia. From the Ukrainian orphanage circa 2007. This photo appeared in the Russian/Ukrainian report about this case and Natalia’s birth mother. The interview with her birth mother appears to be the same as was reported by the English publication The...

I’m surprised not 1 judge on the panel of 3 said “Amended by FOURTEEN YEARS??? Wait a gosh darn minute here!” The appellate court made no fresh determination of her age and have now prevented the criminal court proceedings from doing just that. This ruling shocks the conscience. They are...

Did they ever look into Don Miller aka Donald Eugene Miller? Miller is the serial killer whose first Known victim was killed on/last seen alive on New Year’s Eve 1976, 6 months after the girls went missing? Miller deposited the body of Martha Sue Young in Priggooris Park (discovered Oct 1977).

Tragedy strikes the Chiles family AGAIN. Right now a search is underway for the husband of the late Christina Chiles. Last night a 40ft boat capsized in the Detroit River. There were 14 passengers (9 adults, 5 children). Mr Robert Chiles and Father Rooney (Trenton priest) were passengers and...

I agree! Lazy, at a minimum. Perhaps a mix of ableism and ethnocentrism, too. Also the difficulty they would have finding a placement.

YES, You are correct. That was Kinnard. Oops. I accidentally conflated another article I was reading, that did quote Troemel (Mans pro bono attorney for guardianship). Here’s a correct screenshot of what Troemel actually said.

According to the attorney for the Mans, for their guardianship case, CPS was alerted and tried to get involved. Apparently, at that time, the state felt they could not prove NB was under 18 yrs old. The case was dismissed May 2013. This may be what precipitated the Barnetts to move NB out of...
