Fighting For Meika | 04

A six-year-old girl was rushed to the hospital after her father and stepmother said she had fallen down the stairs. But Meika Jordan’s injuries didn’t match that explanation. Her hair was matted with clumps missing, her tiny body was covered with bruises, a third-degree burn covered the palm of her hand, and she had severe abdominal injuries. She died in hospital, sparking a lengthy police investigation that uncovered incomprehensible details of violent abuse. The story of “The Broken Princess” is the first Nancy Hixt ever shared on the Crime Beat. Now, join her for the shocking new developments, less than ten years after the court case ended.
