Thank you for this! My heart breaks for Evanna.It is truly depressing to know that these children are suffering too. But in saying and feeling that, please remember Evanna!
the house of macrobiotics Facebook page clearly depicts a vegan family (nothing wrong with being vegan, but I’m pointing it out because they lie and claim they aren’t vegan). The house of microbiotics page also has numerous posts about how food is medicine, and that chronic illnesses like colon cancer can be cured with a plant based diet. I would bet they knew how sick Evanna was for quite some time, but insisted she would be magically cured by eating organic sticky candies and fruit.

IMO not ignorance at all, but complete knowledge based on their FB posts that they were aware of the consequences of medical neglect & nutritional deficiencies from past CPS taking the children as well as self-identified vast knowledge of nutrition. Additionally they confirmed that the “Father” finally decided she could die & needed hospital care, but waited another full day to arrange personal transport. Any reasonable person would not make those choices & that reckless indifference caused her death. That is EXACTLY what is needed for a manslaughter conviction IMO -totally agree with their repeated history of taking zero responsibility for any welfare issues related to the children.This case is shocking to me, due to the complete IGNORANCE (IMO) of being a responsible parent, and protecting the health and well being of a child. In that respect, IMO..the multiple children in the home are at risk. And, sadly it has been shown by the case so far, IMO.. that not one adult member in the home will accept that premise of responsibility
Yes, exactly. According to their FB their first involvement with DSS/CPS was in Massachusetts in 2002! So for 18 years and in two states the kids have been removed and returned. So sad! MOO.TBH IMO I was shocked they returned some of the children to the household in the first place. Also could not understand how the adult daily caregivers of the poor child that died had not also been charged. They fully ignored & deleted comments & messages to them to refrain from posting publicly when a criminal investigation was underway. Had they done so, they could have at least claimed not being aware of nutrition/Calcium Deprivation. As well as they have cornered themselves in many other ways because of their public posts. REMEMBER this family had years of cases including the child who died ALSO consisting of Calcium depletion & Low Vitamin D. And when finally deciding to take her to hospital, they waited a full day to get a friend to come get them, rather than calling 911 before she collapsed.

Steven Bennett, 61, and his partner, 50-year-old Heidi Tranberg-Bennett were charged with manslaughter in the second degree for the death of their 12-year-old daughter last month in county court. On Friday afternoon, Columbia County District Attorney Paul Czajka successfully argued in family court to have the Bennett’s four grandchildren taken into protective custody.

Two autopsies say that the cause of death was an undiagnosed kidney disorder.
...
The children were in the courthouse at the time of the proceeding and the adult family members were given an opportunity to have an emotional few minutes with the kids before CPS took them away.

So all the kids are back in DSS custody and charges may come for other adult family members. Wow!
but... but... I thought the autopsies proved the first responders killed her?
