There was a girl found in a closet by policeman who was investigating a run down house that a family lived in. He could barely make out the girl in the dark room and found her naked with soars covering her body, lice in her hair, and a swollen diaper. Investigators wept on the scene and were completey furious that a mother could let this happen to a child. This article was heart wrentching, intriguing, and heart breaking.
After reading this article, something moved inside of me. The end of the last paragraph made me as a reader curious about who the girl was that the neighbors never saw before and that they never saw her again until someone decided to call the police. The writer gave an intense visual of the house that the investigators came across, and the condition of the child. My arms filled with goosebumps when I read "'Due to the severe neglect,' a doctor would write, 'the child will be disabled for the rest of her life.'" The story begins by sharing the mystery of a little girl living in a dark, run down house and tells the story of her rescue and the healing process that she faced at the hospital for 6 weeks. Quotes are used to make the feature like a story and enhance the story to be filled with rage from the people who came in contact with the child. Tears filled my eyes as I read the story. The emotion and visual that was filled in this feature, will stick with me for the rest of my life.
