The Mysterious Case of Natalia Grace: Adoption, Imposter, or Truth?

The Barnetts adopted Natalia Grace, a six-year-old with a rare form of dwarfism from Ukraine, but soon discovered she had pubic hair and was hiding her menstrual cycle. They also claimed she was threatening them with knives, defecating, urinating on and terrorising their youngest son, and making attempts on their lives. The Barnetts say professionals told them Natalia was a sociopath and that their family was in danger. The Barnetts' admitted treatment of Natalia also raises eyebrows. Michael describes how Kristine forced her adoptive daughter to stand at the wall for hours, soiling herself; they made Natalia sleep outside on the deck as punishment, too, prompting a neighbor to call social services.
