S1:E8: The Senseless Torture Death of 10-year-old Emani Moss- "The Evil Stepmother"

Gwinnett County, GA — In this heartbreaking case, I break down the senseless torture death of 10-year-old Emani Moss who died from starvation and malnourishment on October 28, 2013, at the hands of her Stepmother and Father. 

Born to a mother struggling with addiction, Emani was raised by her father, Eman, after her biological mother surrendered parental rights.

Eman later married Tiffany Moss, who subjected Emani to severe abuse, escalating after an incident in March 2010 when Tiffany lost her job and blamed Emani. Despite signs of abuse, including multiple reports of abuse to authorities, Emani was returned to her father’s custody, where the abuse escalated. 

This case shook the nation and spurred significant reforms in Georgia’s child welfare system and highlighted the disparities in investigating abuse claims.
