In episode 82, I told you the first part of the story of eight-year-old Autumn Hallow, a beautiful, bright little girl with unmatched joy for life who was known for her kindness, creativity, thoughtfulness, and determination who was tortured and abused to death by her father and his wife. It is also a story of parental alienation, a mother’s desperate attempts to save her children from their father’s abusive household, and the failure of CPS and the Elk River Police Department to intervene in a dire situation that culminated in the death of a child.

In this episode, I’ll tell you the rest of Autumn’s story. Later in the episode, you’ll hear my conversation with Autumn’s mom, Kelsey Kruse, who tried for months to gain access to her daughter while her father refused to let Kelsey see or speak with her.

This is part two of the heartbreaking story of Autumn Hallow.
