Sometimes the people we trust most to help our children are the ones who cause the most harm. In April 2000, ten-year-old Candace Newmaker traveled from North Carolina to Colorado for what her adoptive mother hoped would be life-changing therapy. Instead, it became a 70-minute session that ended in tragedy. This is the story of how pseudoscientific treatment masquerading as legitimate therapy killed a little girl, and how her death changed laws across the country. We'll explore the dangerous world of attachment therapy, the warning signs that were ignored, and the adults who failed Candace when she needed them most.
