Episode 8: Alissa Guernsey

Episode 8: Alissa Guernsey

In 2009, a 16-month-old girl died while in the care of her mother's cousin, Christy Shaffer. The baby's death was ruled a homicide caused by blunt force trauma. The police had only one suspect: Christy Shaffer. The prosecutor charged her with nothing more than neglect, and the judge let her out of jail after a mere 77 days.
Small-town politics, corruption in the justice system, grassroots activism, and the utter miscarriage of justice intertwine in the mind-boggling story of Alissa Guernsey.
