Welcome to the Episode 39 of Murder & Mayhem: South African True Crime.

About the episode:

A tale that although shocking has been all too often heard before. Caregivers who not only abuse their roles but fail to live up to them too. A little girl left to fend for herself.

A system and society that failed her. 2 years old with an entire future ahead of her. 2 years old and dependent on those she was supposed to trust. 2 years and a life cut short.

This is the heart-wrenching case of Chevonne Rusch
