The Case of Melony Rose Granados

The Case of Melony Rose Granados

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Arizona, to discuss the case of Melony Rose Granados, a young girl who lived with her mother, grandmother, and 4 other siblings in a small townhome in Tempe. Melony was born with myoclonic atonic epilepsy and was developmentally delayed. It's said that she had the mental capacity of a 3-year-old. However, when her grandmother, 55-year-old Virginia Lujan couldn't handle Melony's special needs, rather than reach out for help, she allegedly caged her granddaughter... and let her slowly die in her own filth.
