Episode 6: Arthur Labinjo-Hughes

Send a text Innocent. Curious. Playful. Inquisitive.   These are all words that can describe nearly any 6-year old. But Arthur wasn't like other 6 year old boys; behind his bright, blonde hair and light eyes hid a world of darkness. After losing his mother to incarceration following a vigilante murder, Arthur found himself at the mercy of his father Thomas and his new girlfriend, Emma Tustin. Together, they would lead Arthur into a world of pain, neglect, and isolation as they systemically tortured him for over a year until his death, and all behind closed doors, conveniently hidden in the throes of the COVID-19 Pandemic.   Tune in as Amanda walks you through the timeline of events that led to that fateful day, as well as audio clips from the 911 call and the conversation between Emma Tustin and first responders. There is a lot to unravel but we separate the truth from the media sensationalism in this horrifying episode about a child who slipped through one of many cracks in an already-broken system.  This episode contains triggering topics such as child abuse, child death, domestic violence, murder, and foul language. This content may be sensitive to some listeners; discretion is highly advised.Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/alex-besss/psychoLicense code: UVPXNPMKKE22FJCQSupport the show
