Sorry, lawyers are only looking for easy payoffs! I called several lawyers, I know I have a medical malpractice case, but it's complicated and no one will help me!!
A broken collarbone for kids is common. Some schools got rid or the “jungle gym” or “monkey bars” because of that but cigarette burns!?!?? That’s beyond obvious abuse!!!!!
Children's services received a tip **SIX DAYS** before this little girl was "ever seen by doctors". SIX DAYS!!??!! This child would be alive if these people would have done their damn jobs! With injuries like those being described, she would have been immediately removed and taken care of. This is SO infuriating!
You would think after Gabriel Fernandez death and the extent to which that was investigated, that the system would be more vigilant. Nothing has changed. Children every single day are being failed by this system still. Sickening

@@annagitana1 Yes my sister has been a social worker and is a professor and social work at Clemson University for 10 years now. She has dedicated countless hours of her time and personal money. She even opened her own clinic free of charge for children’s counseling. When I hear people say terrible things about social workers and I think about my sister who is completely dedicated her life to social work into those children I find it completely disheartening. When are we going to blame the parents for being horrible parents?

this, absolutely! i see stories like these, i think, DAMN!! i would have loved and cared for that child as my own. It is absolutely unfair and it kills me every time just knowing how many of us are heartbroken that we weren't blessed with a child but disgusting monsters like these could care less about the same gift😿

But they didn't.. in the video while being interviewed at hospital dcf guy even said they met up and he didn't see a knot or bruises on her face a few days before this incident. And at beginning of video the ladies said they went to the address but wasn't correct or something.. and the male dcf worker said he spoke to her on phone and met up to see the child.
That’s usually What they do they only like to break up families that need resources instead of the families that are actually toxic, and the parents are abusing them
She is not speaking about her daughter, she speaking about herself. She knew she was a killer, yet she projected onto her daughter. She knows she evil and so do the people she was around.
her last words are perfect... "WHY did you do this to ME!" guarantee you this is the type that will spend 30 years behind bars and still blame everyone but herself
If my child unexpectedly died, I would not be calmly sitting there explaining events to detectives. I would be hysterically crying while my world shattered around me, knowing that my child died.
My child (1.6 years old) woke up with huge bruises all over and I rushed her to emergency, I was hysterical! She ended up with a rare blood disorder. That was 30 years ago and she recovered after a long hospital stay and had to be tested every year for 18 years, then every 5. But yes I was completely gone, a blubbering mess. This woman is manipulative and horrible!
Right? So cold and calm and then three tearless sobs, then all calm again. I would probably be catatonic if I had just lost my child. Or screaming on the floor. I would definitely not be answering questions all calm.
It happens way too often because there’s this thing about the child is better off with the parents so parents are given the benefit of the doubt far too many times
Yup I noticed that too that and it’s always about her and her and her. And poor me feel bad for me. Not a word about her daughter and what she would miss about her
You cant demand the Gov get involved, just because something bad happened. 90% of the time, CPS being involved, makes the life of the child exponentially worse. If CPS acted in the way you want them to, because you can't think past your own emotions, there will be countless families being broken up, and destroyed. It is not a small thing, to have the Gov in your personal life, let alone your family. It is tragic that there are bad people in the world, but demanding the heavy hand of Gov helps no one, least of all the children you want to help.
@@CherrrrBear theres many that dont try. Ive seen many cases where workers have failed children by pure laziness. Many cases where the case worker didnt check the child for bruises, didnt check to see the child at all, many simple things that could've been done but werent due to pure LAZINESS. Too many stories like this, no excuses for laziness when you're responsible for lives.
If I ever accidentally step on my baby's foot, as she's following me around while I'm cleaning; I cry, and apologize profusely. I can't imagine ever deliberately hurting my child, let alone any child. This is something only evil, repulsive people do.
The nonchalant conversation to the officer by the social worker just seems bizarre to me. She’s admitting they received reports 6 days earlier and has picture of the child’s injuries. What am I missing?
Not making excuses, but those social workers are overworked...she did come off careless and looked over the absued child's pictures like it was a family album...weird lady. Social workers get too many cases. The only one to honestly blame is these so-called trashy moms who keep birthing children they don't want.
When my daughter was around 18 months old she scooted herself off the kitchen counter while sitting in her table top chair. She fell on her head and passed out. I thought she died, she was fine and checked out ok at the ER. So imagine the force it takes to fracture a skull or cause a brain bleed. And I was hysterical yet in action, I got immediate help and my daughter’s health was most important. So, child abusers are awful, horrible people. That’s all…
My son fell off of our bed when he was 18 months old because I was reading the news on my phone and wasn’t paying 100% attention. I took him straight to hospital and asked the nurse if I needed to turn myself into social services? That’s how seriously I took it, and it never happened again. It’s takes a lot to break a child’s bones, they are perfectly formed to be able to contend with small bumps, it’s agonising to think how hard this child must have been struck and how many times.
@@kelf8605I had one and it had a tray over the front with toys on or for them to have food on. They are round and they are quite small so you have to squeeze the baby in but my friend used to put her daughter on the counter I didn’t only because I never had to. But I agree with you how much violence is used is unbelievable and same with SBS
Everything is I, I, I... I won't see her get married, I can't have more kids, I have PTSD, I need to know... never Eli suffered, Eli won't go to school, Eli won't experience joy... I, I, I, me, me, me... selfish and a murderer.
She casually says she had bruising but that was about it. I guess that’s not a big deal either? My heart sank listening to the SW talking about her injuries and her own mother is nonchalant. How is it humanly possible to afflict abuse on a little child my brain cannot comprehend this. Horrendous suffering and neglect of intervention. I found it interesting in some of her choice of words…I thought she was “dead” asleep. The nerve 😡🤬🤯
I see this crap everyday. I work in the court system and I get so frustrated when DCFS doesn’t do something when a child is being legitimately abused. I see the parents get their kids even though it’s proven they’re abusive. The system wants to keep families together. Well, sometimes that doesn’t work and it’s wrong.
Unfortunately a lot of it is the system itself. Bio parents are considered a higher priority than the child themself, and courts will remove s thriving child away from the foster family where they were loved, and placed back in the hands of the parents where they often revert right back to being abused. It's awful. CPS often doesn't have the authority or resources to act, as many jurisdictions require hard evidence before they're allowed to do anything, which has to be concrete. And I'm talking concrete, as in "common sense says the images on this phone are of the child's injuries, but because her face is not shown we cannot legally assume that it's the same child".
If you’re “checking pupils” and using words like “posturing” then you know enough about the severity of the situation to get that child to a hospital immediately. This is awful.
U know whats bad? The CPS workers told all about this baby and her injuries without flinching. U know they see some horrific stuff. How do u ever get used to it?
@@paulaellis6242so? There’s so many kids that need adoption. Instead of people spending thousands and thousands just to have a bio kid. Go adopt. Use that money to have a great life
Everytime i hear stories of these so called mothers it makes me appreciate the mom i have even with all her flaws. I couldnt imagine having a mom like the ones i see in these stories
She acts exactly how my mother did growing up… and you wouldn’t believe the emotional pain that this kind of parenting leaves you with (even after you’ve been long away from your abuser)
Yup! Whenever I have a fight with my mom and am holding anger I’m struggling to calm, I specifically seek out videos about horrible mothers like this. It always does a great job of putting things back into perspective and I remember that despite whatever flaws my mother has she loved me and never abused me.
@@krisniznik3953when I was a toddler I got a broken collar bone at daycare and they Never documented it Nor told my mom about the incident. My mom knew something was wrong because I wouldn’t stop crying and she took my to the hospital and found out. When a child has a broken bone it is apparent that something is wrong
Especially at 18 months!! Like what on earth!? They haven't even fully developed personalities yet. They have one, but they are testing all kinds of them out and learning who they are still. She's a psycho this one!
@@hollyvantilburg1242 hope you got better. Just out of concern for you, vomit is a biohazard. Hope that didn't make you physically ill and that it was disposed of.
She says she’s 100% sure the neighbors did it.... after lying the WHOLE time asking for answers, that she already knew... she was determined to blame the innocent for it. Disgusting
The calls alleged drug use and one where child had light bruising from falling out of bed. In most states…these allegations do not meet the legal definition (BY LAW) forCPS to respond.
Better yet, people need to get a license to reproduce!! Also have to get that license renewed to raise a kid. IQ test and psychiatric evaluation to get that license!!!
I am shocked by her monstrous behavior. It is unbelievable that she had the audacity to sit there and claim to the detective that the babies' injuries were just from falling off the bed. It is truly appalling. The mistreatment and neglect of that poor child is incredibly heartbreaking.
The ABSOLUTE EPITOME of " Not MY FAULT " . That last comment about -- How could you do this to ME , is the PERFECT example of someone who is unwilling to accept responsibility for her actions ( or lack thereof ) . Maybe 30 years in prison will help her understand more clearly how a mother is supposed to care for their offspring !!!
I hate when children's services drags their feet when a child or children are in extreme danger. I've seen it happen way too much, unfortunately. This is so sad & tragic. No child should EVER suffer these kinds of injuries. What could a child ever do to warrant this? Absolutely nothing. All a child does is look up to you for love & support & want to please you. This is devastating & disgusting. There is no way a parent wouldn't notice injuries this extensive, unless they just did not care or were responsible. 😔😠
@@RedTrishsame! I’m sitting here watching with utter confusion at the mother’s lack of compassion for her daughter in distress. Then I figured she’s so used to her daughter’s bullsH!p that she knows exactly what she did. She knew her daughter was acting and wasn’t about to play along. It was enough that she was there with her.
May I ask how young was she when she got pregnant, where was the child's father, and does she have Borderline Personality Disorder? Or perhaps her own poorly or unaddressed childhood neglect/trauma? Definitely unqualified for motherhood. I'm not judging you, just very curious how she could be so ignorant w/ the easy access to parenting & medical info these days (if that wasn't just an act for the detective). So sorry for the family's loss.💔
@@Lexi_Con Cheyenne was 32 when she got pregnant..I never knew who the father was until after the baby died. I think she kept the baby away from him. Cheyenne's mother has a difficult upbringing and she also has issues with parenting her daughters. She straightened her life up several years ago. I'm not sure if Cheyenne has any mental health issues but I think maybe drugs and just maybe not wanting to be tied down with a child and maybe because of the new boyfriend. I don't think he had anything to do with it but it might have been an issue between them. Sorry I didn't have any more info. I haven't spoken to her mother since the funeral, she is in denial and still claims it was the babysitters. I just don't want to engage with it all.
She is blaming everyone else and then gets mad when you want to know why she didn’t take her baby to the hospital. She says she knows her neighbors did it, but kept taking her back. Last but not least, there were no tears when she was crying 😭! Did she ever take the polygraph test?
@@ghm692then demand more from your state & state legislatures. The state legislatures make the laws and policies CPS abides by. If you want something different, demand it.
They need to rename child protective services. Because they don’t. They allow this type of horrible thing to happen then are completely immune from accountability
Yes, it's sad and frustrating but they are not the ones to blame. They have too many cases to deal with and not enough homes to place abused children. Too few employees available to monitor the huge number of abused children.
As a grandma, I am involved with my grandkids and ensure their wellbeing. How did this grandma not know? Or is she part of the problem? Soooooooo many OBVIOUS red flags. This makes me sick. Poor baby ❤
People are just plain LAZY today and don't want to "get involved." Really, they DON'T CARE about anyone but themselves, and sometimes, not even themselves! Life has no value to too many people today. So sad. 😢
Yep, my mum would be all over me if my boys turned up injured, etc. She pays attention and she cares for her grandchildren to the extent she would sell me out in a heartbeat if she thought I was hurting them. She would take them from me. Some people though are just not as dedicated.
Why don't the CPS take responsibility for leaving an abused child in the hands of her abuser? All the signs were there and they left that poor baby to die. I'm so fricking angry.
It could be agonal breathing which is when the brain stem is being deprived of oxygen so breathes in shutdown the body will down shallow raspy breathes
In the uk we had a case a couple of years ago where a mother and her girlfriend tortured and killed her baby daughter, when child protection received reports over and over from family, the father,neighbours etc they went (multiple times) to see them and the child and they told the officer that these reports were made because all these people were homophobic and didn’t like their relationship, so the officer accepted that and did nothing, the child died because the girlfriend was beating her,starving her etc and the mother did nothing to stop it. The girlfriend got life in prison and the mother about 10 yrs, the girlfriend still claims it was homophobia despite all the evidence. Its mind blowing what child protection officers will believe😢
The calls alleged drug use and one where child had light bruising from falling out of bed. In most states…these allegations do not meet the legal definition (BY LAW) forCPS to respond.
So sick of hearing her fake cry feeling sorry for herself, then asking why someone would do this, and her annoying squealing acting like someone else killed her baby. And how mad she claims to be about it. Then has the nerve to blame the detective saying he did this to her. I hope in prison they have a field day with this child killer.
She put on one heck of a show in that police interview but the truth is. She chose everyone else over her daughter. She abused and neglected her baby. I am sick of these monsters hurting their babies. I want to see real justice!
the system is so broken and outdated. apparently DCF or child protective services had gone to the residence the same day as the tip but did not see the bruising or injuries on children. So devastating to not see our system get repaired. 💔
@@trishaanicole61611I see what you did there, I noticed all of those too! 🙃 However it was the gentleman in the orange hoodie that says “he saw Elliaunna on Monday”
CPS flat out do not care about kids being abused they purposely ignore physical evidence & the treatment of children. CPS was called several times when I was a kid being tortured by my foster parents. Being beat daily, starved, verbally & emotionally abused, they left me & my babysister in the hands of monsters & nothing ever happened to them or the CPS who failed us. It took the governor of the state to intervene.
29:48 was that a Freudian slip? She says “I didn’t do it intentionally, I do it because I wanted my daughter to die.” I usually listen to everything on 2x, so I slowed it down just to make sure I wasn’t hearing things and it still sounds like it.
I'm sure there are many, many more infants, toddlers, and homeschooled children who are being physically and emotionally abused that the public doesn't know about.
Imo Homeschooled children need to attend a public school at least bi- weekly for extra curricular activities and inclusion..they need to be physically seen by people outside the home
The homeschoolers I know would love to participate in extra curricular activities like sports but are not allowed to do so. Wasn't this kid too young for school?
Homeschooled.children are not being abused. The parents who pull their kids out of school to hide their abuse by pretending to homeschool are not true homeschoolers as they sure aren’t teaching them anything whilst abusing them.
CPS needs to be closed and completely redone. I think the system needs more new workers. And employee regular screening. People should not have children if drugs are involved ….period.
CPS showed to my house after my mom threw me down our bricked steps on the front porch. The CPS worker was so calm & casual. Never looked me in the eyes or spoke to me,and joked with my mom about it being appropriate discipline. They allowed my mother to become a foster parent a few months later. So they don’t care. They just want the paycheck & gov benefits. (Edited for bad grammar)
I raised FOUR children who, COMBINED, didn't have as many "accidents" or bruises throughout their entire childhood as this poor baby suffered inside a period of just weeks. This woman is MONSTER. 👹☠👹☠
My son scooted off the bed one morning at five am. As scared as I was he had no bruising just cried for a minute then back to trying to grab our dog. I still took him to the ER to just get checked out. If your kid is bruised up wouldn't you call their PCP. If you think the neighbors are hurting your child care more about them than her own mental health ❤️

Many cases where the case worker didnt check the child for bruises, didnt check to see the child at all, many simple things that could've been done but werent due to pure LAZINESS. Too many stories like this, no excuses for laziness when you're responsible for lives.
I have children around her age. This makes me beyond sick. How could anyone harm a child? That's rhetorical. These are demons.
I know.. my son is 3 and this has been extremely hard to even watch :(
Demons they are
I don't even raise my voice at my 3yr old because it makes me feel bad. I truly don't understand this.
If I ever accidentally step on my baby's foot, as she's following me around while I'm cleaning; I cry, and apologize profusely. I can't imagine ever deliberately hurting my child, let alone any child. This is something only evil, repulsive people do.
Demonic entities. There's no other explanation for this kind of behavior..
That speech of hers at the end makes me think she thinks this a movie and it’s her turn for a dramatic monologue
She thinks she's the "main character" and not the "murderer."
That was my thought too
It totally felt like a monologue for a play addition or something. It was bizarre.
It was so cringe
It's just histrionic narcissism 😢
What kind of parent suspects a head injury and waits a week to get medical attention?
The nonchalant conversation to the officer by the social worker just seems bizarre to me. She’s admitting they received reports 6 days earlier and has picture of the child’s injuries. What am I missing?
Not making excuses, but those social workers are overworked...she did come off careless and looked over the absued child's pictures like it was a family album...weird lady. Social workers get too many cases. The only one to honestly blame is these so-called trashy moms who keep birthing children they don't want.
The pictures were taken that day in the ER...the report 6 days earlier did not come with photos.
"Her eyes wouldn't dilate, but otherwise she was normal." So many red flags
Right! She was posturing... how do you know that word. But not know to take your child to the hospital straight away
I don’t think she knew what she was saying. She didn’t know what dilate means.
@@alexiscorona8849 suuuure, doesn't know what dialete means. Doesn't know what posturing means. Still says it about her dead daughter
* posturing
Seriously! Has a head injury with a knot on her head, is lethargic and her eyes aren’t dilating, but she’s not worried yet.
You don't get those injuries from being left in a hot car..... That poor baby suffered horribly. Rest in peace little Elliaunna. ❤❤
Poor❤baby she is blaming the baby sitter
@@hollywood7900 Of course she is; she takes ZERO responsibility for what she did and allowed.
When my daughter was around 18 months old she scooted herself off the kitchen counter while sitting in her table top chair. She fell on her head and passed out. I thought she died, she was fine and checked out ok at the ER. So imagine the force it takes to fracture a skull or cause a brain bleed. And I was hysterical yet in action, I got immediate help and my daughter’s health was most important. So, child abusers are awful, horrible people. That’s all…
My son fell off of our bed when he was 18 months old because I was reading the news on my phone and wasn’t paying 100% attention. I took him straight to hospital and asked the nurse if I needed to turn myself into social services? That’s how seriously I took it, and it never happened again. It’s takes a lot to break a child’s bones, they are perfectly formed to be able to contend with small bumps, it’s agonising to think how hard this child must have been struck and how many times.
You had her sitting in a chair on the kitchen counter? 😳
@@taaurus13they make little high chairs that are meant for counter tops. They’re low
@@kelf8605 That sounds extremely dangerous
@@kelf8605I had one and it had a tray over the front with toys on or for them to have food on. They are round and they are quite small so you have to squeeze the baby in but my friend used to put her daughter on the counter I didn’t only because I never had to. But I agree with you how much violence is used is unbelievable and same with SBS
Everything is I, I, I... I won't see her get married, I can't have more kids, I have PTSD, I need to know... never Eli suffered, Eli won't go to school, Eli won't experience joy... I, I, I, me, me, me... selfish and a murderer.
CPS is all the time messing with the wrong people and ignoring the actual monsters.
FACTS
It’s true! If the baby is considered “adoptable “ they have interest and want to remove child
Well, they have too many abuse cases. They can't save the world. Monsters need to stop birthing!!
They are giving unqualified people too much power over other's lives
I totally agree!!
Did they say she had cigarette burns? Mom didn’t notice that?
She casually says she had bruising but that was about it. I guess that’s not a big deal either? My heart sank listening to the SW talking about her injuries and her own mother is nonchalant. How is it humanly possible to afflict abuse on a little child my brain cannot comprehend this. Horrendous suffering and neglect of intervention. I found it interesting in some of her choice of words…I thought she was “dead” asleep. The nerve 😡🤬🤯
She noticed, because she is the one who burned her own child with cigarettes!
And the grandmother never noticed anything over time?
@@LaurieSickles_RealtorDidn't the babysitter see anything?
I see this crap everyday. I work in the court system and I get so frustrated when DCFS doesn’t do something when a child is being legitimately abused. I see the parents get their kids even though it’s proven they’re abusive. The system wants to keep families together. Well, sometimes that doesn’t work and it’s wrong.
They want to keep them together so they don’t have to spend the money paying foster families.
I saw the opposite (personally).
@@MKUltra42 interesting analysis- I never took this into account before.
Unfortunately a lot of it is the system itself. Bio parents are considered a higher priority than the child themself, and courts will remove s thriving child away from the foster family where they were loved, and placed back in the hands of the parents where they often revert right back to being abused. It's awful.
CPS often doesn't have the authority or resources to act, as many jurisdictions require hard evidence before they're allowed to do anything, which has to be concrete. And I'm talking concrete, as in "common sense says the images on this phone are of the child's injuries, but because her face is not shown we cannot legally assume that it's the same child".

That's why I adjust the playback speed. Ain't enough time in the day to spend 35 minutes on this one story.
@@teresafloridayou are genius
I came to find this comment specifically 😂
To me the detective was the one who was annoying. He was so unable to articulate his words,
Her incorrect use of the word "whenever" (instead of "when" for those of you who make this mistake as well) annoyed me from the beginning.
If you’re “checking pupils” and using words like “posturing” then you know enough about the severity of the situation to get that child to a hospital immediately. This is awful.
Makes me wonder if she did Google searches for severe Head injury/Brain Injury symptoms
I thought exactly the same.
Why was the baby posturing?
@@cartergomez5390brain damage
This poor kid was failed on every level.
And she tells the detective that her child "sleeps like the dead" multiple times, is quite telling!
U know whats bad? The CPS workers told all about this baby and her injuries without flinching. U know they see some horrific stuff. How do u ever get used to it?
30 years is All she gets? The system is broken...
She's not a mother
Not surprising since it's Indiana.
Why is cps even a thing ? They failed so many kids. Despicable agency
This woman is a monster. Hopefully her cellmates will teach her some lessons...children should not be subjected to people like this.
So many people would love the chance to be parents, but then you have monsters like these.
Yes, like yo mentioned, so many couples struggling to concieve. Awful monster, for sure. All the best!
I am one of those people who was never blessed with a child. I would consider the opportunity to be a parent the most wonderful gift in the world.
@@paulaellis6242so? There’s so many kids that need adoption. Instead of people spending thousands and thousands just to have a bio kid. Go adopt. Use that money to have a great life
@@StonedBarbiee!!!!!💯
@@StonedBarbiee Yes indeed 100%!
Everytime i hear stories of these so called mothers it makes me appreciate the mom i have even with all her flaws. I couldnt imagine having a mom like the ones i see in these stories
She acts exactly how my mother did growing up… and you wouldn’t believe the emotional pain that this kind of parenting leaves you with (even after you’ve been long away from your abuser)
Yup! Whenever I have a fight with my mom and am holding anger I’m struggling to calm, I specifically seek out videos about horrible mothers like this. It always does a great job of putting things back into perspective and I remember that despite whatever flaws my mother has she loved me and never abused me.
All that moving her around and the baby had a broken collar bone😢😢…. Monsters, vile vile monsters!
I had a broken collar bone when I was 12. It HURTS!
She didn't realize about the collar bone during the bath? I seriously doubt the bath.
@@krisniznik3953when I was a toddler I got a broken collar bone at daycare and they Never documented it Nor told my mom about the incident. My mom knew something was wrong because I wouldn’t stop crying and she took my to the hospital and found out. When a child has a broken bone it is apparent that something is wrong
@@krisniznik3953 right!? Like imagine how painful it would have been for her to have been lifted up 😭😭
they often bathe the abused kids before calling for help to hide how dirty and neglected they are @@krisniznik3953
How do these cops deal with these losers? I couldn’t do it..
So she had multiple open cases. Cps dropped the ball. And they should be ashamed. Her "mother" should be ashamed.
How the heck does someone believe their child is Jeffrey dahmer…wtaf
Especially at 18 months!! Like what on earth!? They haven't even fully developed personalities yet. They have one, but they are testing all kinds of them out and learning who they are still. She's a psycho this one!

Agreed. She was so hard to listen to. Absolutely disgusting. 🤢
crazy to think of the anger inside a person when theyre able to break a babys bones :(
CPS needs to be investigated also!! This poor child!!
The calls alleged drug use and one where child had light bruising from falling out of bed. In most states…these allegations do not meet the legal definition (BY LAW) forCPS to respond.
Better yet, people need to get a license to reproduce!! Also have to get that license renewed to raise a kid. IQ test and psychiatric evaluation to get that license!!!
@@jen9214that is PLENTY by law
It’s always a fall from the bed. Abusers continually use this same excuse. 😡
I am shocked by her monstrous behavior. It is unbelievable that she had the audacity to sit there and claim to the detective that the babies' injuries were just from falling off the bed. It is truly appalling. The mistreatment and neglect of that poor child is incredibly heartbreaking.
It’s all about her, not her dead daughter.

The ABSOLUTE EPITOME of " Not MY FAULT " . That last comment about -- How could you do this to ME , is the PERFECT example of someone who is unwilling to accept responsibility for her actions ( or lack thereof ) . Maybe 30 years in prison will help her understand more clearly how a mother is supposed to care for their offspring !!!
I hate when children's services drags their feet when a child or children are in extreme danger. I've seen it happen way too much, unfortunately. This is so sad & tragic. No child should EVER suffer these kinds of injuries. What could a child ever do to warrant this? Absolutely nothing. All a child does is look up to you for love & support & want to please you. This is devastating & disgusting.
There is no way a parent wouldn't notice injuries this extensive, unless they just did not care or were responsible. 😔😠
Then get a job with CPS.
This woman is guilty of neglect. She needs to be in prison for life.
It was a small lump from rolling off the bed, a week and a half ago. YET…. she iced it last night because she thought it was getting bigger????
Riiiight and the dcf worker said just a few days earlier when they met (bc of the reports) he didn't see a knot on her head.
I gotta wonder what her mom is thinking as the daughter's story starts to get so complicated.
What I noticed is the mothers lack of comfort while she’s ‘crying’ I think she knew
I was looking to see if anyone else in the comments noticed this too! Happy I wasn't the only one! @@RedTrish
She is in denial and defending her.
@@RedTrishsame! I’m sitting here watching with utter confusion at the mother’s lack of compassion for her daughter in distress. Then I figured she’s so used to her daughter’s bullsH!p that she knows exactly what she did. She knew her daughter was acting and wasn’t about to play along. It was enough that she was there with her.

Excellent comment
Damn lol
Yes!!! I always say this. The guys who finish in these women are equally to blame.
@@kweenz109never heard it said that way, but very accurate.
She went to work instead of calling 911?
Her mother agreeing with her is driving me crazy....
i keep wondering how painful a broken collar bone is. the poor baby must have been crying.
This is my former step daughter's granddaughter. I went to the funeral it was so sad. It's all so heartbreaking.
Hope your family is well
May I ask how young was she when she got pregnant, where was the child's father, and does she have Borderline Personality Disorder? Or perhaps her own poorly or unaddressed childhood neglect/trauma? Definitely unqualified for motherhood. I'm not judging you, just very curious how she could be so ignorant w/ the easy access to parenting & medical info these days (if that wasn't just an act for the detective). So sorry for the family's loss.💔
@@Lexi_Con Cheyenne was 32 when she got pregnant..I never knew who the father was until after the baby died. I think she kept the baby away from him. Cheyenne's mother has a difficult upbringing and she also has issues with parenting her daughters. She straightened her life up several years ago. I'm not sure if Cheyenne has any mental health issues but I think maybe drugs and just maybe not wanting to be tied down with a child and maybe because of the new boyfriend. I don't think he had anything to do with it but it might have been an issue between them. Sorry I didn't have any more info. I haven't spoken to her mother since the funeral, she is in denial and still claims it was the babysitters. I just don't want to engage with it all.
I'm so sorry to hear this hit so close to home. @@arlishacharles7083
My sincere condolences to you
This is heartbreaking
This lady is full of excuses. She is hardly mourning & it’s quite obvious she has no empathy… nasty
She is blaming everyone else and then gets mad when you want to know why she didn’t take her baby to the hospital. She says she knows her neighbors did it, but kept taking her back.
Last but not least, there were no tears when she was crying 😭! Did she ever take the polygraph test?
Why just neglect? Who beat this baby? And why isnt anyone charged with murder?
Because they couldn't come up with enough evidence to be able to prove beyond a reasonable doubt who actually harmed the baby.
How do you go from "she was my only" to "my neighbor definitely did it" to "she was the next Jeffery Dahmer"?
Totally psychotic
Being a nutter
That train of thought only happens in a police station.
Seriously that's some crazy s***.
My heart bleeds for children born/fostered/adopted by malignant toxic vile parent/s. RIP sweet + precious Elli 😇

They’re overwhelmed with calls and cases
In the uk we had a case a couple of years ago where a mother and her girlfriend tortured and killed her baby daughter, when child protection received reports over and over from family, the father,neighbours etc they went (multiple times) to see them and the child and they told the officer that these reports were made because all these people were homophobic and didn’t like their relationship, so the officer accepted that and did nothing, the child died because the girlfriend was beating her,starving her etc and the mother did nothing to stop it. The girlfriend got life in prison and the mother about 10 yrs, the girlfriend still claims it was homophobia despite all the evidence. Its mind blowing what child protection officers will believe😢

"Why did you do this to ME!?" ......
She put on one heck of a show in that police interview but the truth is. She chose everyone else over her daughter. She abused and neglected her baby. I am sick of these monsters hurting their babies. I want to see real justice!
Why is child services taking so long and waiting so many days to rescue these children?
the system is so broken and outdated. apparently DCF or child protective services had gone to the residence the same day as the tip but did not see the bruising or injuries on children. So devastating to not see our system get repaired. 💔

@@trishaanicole61611I see what you did there, I noticed all of those too! 🙃
However it was the gentleman in the orange hoodie that says “he saw Elliaunna on Monday”
CPS flat out do not care about kids being abused they purposely ignore physical evidence & the treatment of children. CPS was called several times when I was a kid being tortured by my foster parents. Being beat daily, starved, verbally & emotionally abused, they left me & my babysister in the hands of monsters & nothing ever happened to them or the CPS who failed us. It took the governor of the state to intervene.
Lack of workers, they are understaffed.
29:48 was that a Freudian slip? She says “I didn’t do it intentionally, I do it because I wanted my daughter to die.” I usually listen to everything on 2x, so I slowed it down just to make sure I wasn’t hearing things and it still sounds like it.
The subtitles say the same thing you’re right
Notice her mother turns n glances at her
I'm sure there are many, many more infants, toddlers, and homeschooled children who are being physically and emotionally abused that the public doesn't know about.
Imo Homeschooled children need to attend a public school at least bi- weekly for extra curricular activities and inclusion..they need to be physically seen by people outside the home
The homeschoolers I know would love to participate in extra curricular activities like sports but are not allowed to do so. Wasn't this kid too young for school?
Homeschooled.children are not being abused. The parents who pull their kids out of school to hide their abuse by pretending to homeschool are not true homeschoolers as they sure aren’t teaching them anything whilst abusing them.
No kidding
@@hands-to-work1601Not allowed?
As a new mother hearing cases like this hit so much harder then before I was a mother
She's not a mother. She was an incubator. She doesn't deserve the title of mother. Congratulations on your baby.😊✌️🌻🌻
CPS needs to be closed and completely redone. I think the system needs more new workers. And employee regular screening. People should not have children if drugs are involved ….period.
Tell me why wasn't social service not investigating right away.
They did a few days prior to the girls death and saw nothing wrong. Idk what’s worse…. That, or if they had not investigated at all
Do you damn job. That child died because of the mother. But child protective services FAILED BIG TIME!!!!
How is that CPS worker so casual like its whatever?
CPS showed to my house after my mom threw me down our bricked steps on the front porch. The CPS worker was so calm & casual. Never looked me in the eyes or spoke to me,and joked with my mom about it being appropriate discipline. They allowed my mother to become a foster parent a few months later.
So they don’t care. They just want the paycheck & gov benefits.
(Edited for bad grammar)
I noticed that too.
Desensitized.
She was like laughing and smiling at first, like excited talking about this poor girl wasn’t going to make it. It was weird af.
I took an instant dislike to her.
I raised FOUR children who, COMBINED, didn't have as many "accidents" or bruises throughout their entire childhood as this poor baby suffered inside a period of just weeks.
This woman is MONSTER.
👹☠👹☠
My son scooted off the bed one morning at five am. As scared as I was he had no bruising just cried for a minute then back to trying to grab our dog. I still took him to the ER to just get checked out. If your kid is bruised up wouldn't you call their PCP. If you think the neighbors are hurting your child care more about them than her own mental health ❤️
