The Case of Gracie Buss

This week, Drewby and Yergy head to Iowa to discuss the case of Gracie Buss who fell victim to one of the most common monsters that we've seen on this show... Mom's new boyfriend. Gracie, her brother, and her mother - the barely literate Kristi Buss - lived in a duplex is Waterloo back in 2014, when Chad Allen Little came into the family's life. Around this same time, Gracie kept suffering injuries, which Chad attributed to seizures and "falls down the stairs." In the early morning hours of May 30th, 2015, Gracie suffered another such mysterious injury. After several hours, she  was rushed by ambulance to Covenant Medical Center. However, Gracie’s injuries were so extensive that he transferred her to the pediatric intensive care unit at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, where she was placed on life support. Three days after she arrived at the ICU, Gracie was taken off life support and passed away. Her organs were donated to children in need.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://law.justia.com/cases/iowa/court-of-appeals/2021/19-1062.html https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/crime-and-courts/2019/08/09/waterloo-kristi-amber-buss-pleads-guilty-sentenced-4-year-old-daughter-gracie-buss-may-2015-death/1973829001 https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/147422228/gracie-vernell-buss https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/147422228/gracie_vernell-buss/photo https://www.news8000.com/news/crime/iowa-man-convicted-of-murder-in-death-of-4-year-old-girl/article_0675a174-3e80-56bf-b8a0-1abed18df67e.html https://www.kcrg.com/content/news/Waterloo-man-gets-life-for-killing-girlfriends-daughter-511475422.html https://www.facebook.com/KWWL7/posts/4-year-old-gracie-buss-was-found-unconscious-in-her-waterloo-home-in-may-2015-gr/10154960446531528/ https://disability-memorial.org/gracie-buss https://www.kcrg.com/content/news/Waterloo-woman-pleads-guilty-in-4-year-old-daughters-death-531028091.html https://www.news8000.com/news/crime/trial-delayed-for-couple-charged-in-4-year-old-s-death/article_67b133a4-0910-5881-8d4a-a04bfa87b7eb.html https://www.radioiowa.com/2015/06/04/waterloo-residents-raising-funds-for-young-girls-funeral/ https://www.kcci.com/article/4-year-old-girl-found-unresponsive-has-now-died/6907887 https://www.kwwl.com/news/chad-little-motions-for-new-trial/article_1c3bd846-9d60-5191-bf4a-3f3504391297.html https://www.nhregister.com/texas/article/Waterloo-man-charged-with-death-of-4-year-old-girl-10023548.php https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/crime-and-courts/2019/06/18/waterloo-murder-trial-iowa-man-gets-life-killing-girlfriends-daughter/1491788001/ https://www.kwwl.com/news/jury-selection-starts-for-trial-of-waterloo-man-accused-of-killing-4-year-old-gracie/article_fdc94513-1d5f-5781-8aec-1f5cd689c277.html https://www.kwwl.com/news/autopsy-photos-show-numerous-injuries-on-4-year-old-s-body-in-murder-trial/article_7f49fe3f-7122-50d7-af26-414bdaca632d.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AB2I9IYtmQ https://www.facebook.com/kristi.buss.98 https://www.facebook.com/kristi.buss.3 https://www.facebook.com/chad.little.963 https://www.kcrg.com/content/news/Waterloo-woman-pleads-guilty-in-4-year-old-daughters-death-531028091.html https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?ref=watch_permalink&v=815258638845452 https://www.facebook.com/KWWL7/videos/815258638845452 https://doc-search.iowa.gov/Offender/Search https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=744535471008484&set=a.744544754340889 https://www.gofundme.com/f/vzjch9s https://www.radioiowa.com/2015/06/04/waterloo-residents-raising-funds-for-young-girls-funeral/
