samhexum Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 The episode was about a Michael-Jackson-type entertainer. One of the kids he was accused of molesting was a sick girl who lived with her grandmother. First it came to light that granny trying to cash in on the other accusations, and then it was discovered that she had been intentionally giving the girl things to make her sick and had probably taken some years off her life. + WilliamM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
