* Hi, to our lovely True Crimer's, thanks for listening and please help us spread the word by telling your friends and family about us. * this is going to be another horrific one, thanks to Kim. * trigger warning this is horrible as usual, and there is a little child involved, so if you can not stomach child abuse, please tune in next week for a more laid back episode. * Elisa Izquierdo (Feb 11, 1989 – Nov 22, 1995) was a precious, innocent six-year-old Puerto Rican [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puerto_Rican_American]–Cuban-American [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuban-American] little girl who died of a brain hemorrhage [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_hemorrhage] inflicted by her dreadful mother, Awilda Lopez. * This all occurred at the height of a prolonged & increasing rampage of physical [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_abuse], mental [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_abuse], emotional [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_abuse], and sexual child abuse [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_abuse] that took place between 1994 and 1995. * It was described by authorities in NYC as the "worst case of child abuse they had ever seen." * The life and death of Elisa Izquierdo first made national headlines when it became clear that the city's child [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_protection]welfare system, had missed many chances to intervene with her family and save her life. * These failures to protect Elisa, became the inspiration for Elisa's Law, and increased accountability of all parties involved in child welfare within the city * Elisa's Law was implemented in February 1996. * Elisa has been referred to as a modern-day Cinderella [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinderella] because she had at first been under the protection of a loving father and had befriended Prince Michael of Greece [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Michael_of_Greece_and_Denmark], who had offered to pay for her private tuition until 12th grade—before being placed into the permanent custody of her mother. * This terrible tale is unfortunately a true one. Please take care and stay safe, Love Steph and Kim xx References: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/13940948/elisa-izquierdo [https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/13940948/elisa-izquierdo] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Elisa_Izquierdo [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Elisa_Izquierdo] https://medium.com/@grantbjork92/abuse-and-murder-of-6-year-old-elisa-izquierdo-murderstation-a06a811c2112 [https://medium.com/@grantbjork92/abuse-and-murder-of-6-year-old-elisa-izquierdo-murderstation-a06a811c2112] Photographs and additional reading. https://ms-my.facebook.com/IllicitDeeds/photos/a.403740360271849/886096018702945/?type=3 [https://ms-my.facebook.com/IllicitDeeds/photos/a.403740360271849/886096018702945/?type=3] Resources: https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/mentalhealth/Pages/contact-service.aspx#24-hour [https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/mentalhealth/Pages/contact-service.aspx#24-hour] https://www.beyondblue.org.au [https://www.beyondblue.org.au/] https://www.betterhelp.com/ Persons of Interest [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2313969] From murderers to money launderers, thieves to thugs – police officers from the...
