This was so deeply heartbreaking.

A lot of the reviews are talking about how the documentary was confusing, and while the material itself is confusing, I was able to follow the directors main drive. That's where I am deeply saddened and disturbed. When you think about the facts of this case, when you lay it all out there you can clearly see that Natalie WAS a child and suffered extreme abuse. It is so so clear, and I think you can come to that conclusion even before hearing from the dad. She was constantly in distress, in bad hygiene, hungry, and confused! She had no understanding of social cues and displayed distressing behavior. But she was 9 years old abandoned and suffering. I wanted to write this in case the directors of this documentary just happen to be reading comments. How could you! How could you make this documentary with such a vivid image that Natalie was a child, and solely focus on her abuser? The documentary continued to paint the narrative that she is creepy, she is something to be fear, it has three episodes that just blast her for being a social inadequate neighbor. But not bringing it back around to say "hey, you know why people might have thought she was weird? Because they thought she was 26 when in reality she was A CHILD"!!!!

My heart breaks for her. I really hope if there is anything more to be documented on this, that they take time to make right what this documentary got so so grossly wrong! This was neglect. It was complete neglect of someone who was the most vulnerable you can be. A child with a disability! I hope she is loved, I hope she is cared for and I hope she finds peace! And I hope everyone who made this documentary takes a moment to recognize the storyline they've chosen to follow is grossly unjust!

I loved the lady narrator, I believe she was an attorney, who lad out the facts for us, or else this documentary would have had nothing sustainable. Also she was hot.

ANYWAYS!!! This was terrible and heartbreaking. It should have been about justice for this poor girl. Thanks.
