While medical professionals initially diagnosed her with severe attachment disorders and dangerous rages, Caralee—now an adult named Sabrina—maintains she fabricated her symptoms and was misunderstood by her adoptive parents. After being abandoned in Russia, she was eventually rescued by her adoption agent and raised by a more supportive family in the United States. Today, she is a stable mother of four who has forgiven her past, while the reporter concludes with his own successful story of adopting a child from Africa.This episode includes AI-generated content.
