TL;DR Summary

The strange case of Natalia Grace, a Ukrainian girl adopted by an Indiana couple who later accused her of being an adult impersonating a child, has been the subject of a recent docuseries. The couple abandoned her and moved to Canada after legally changing her age from eight to 22 years old. Prosecutors charged them with neglect of a dependent, but the case was dismissed. The docuseries includes interviews with neighbors who had unflattering things to say about Natalia, but prosecutors say they have evidence that her listed birthdate of 4 September 2003 is accurate. The ultimate question remains whether Natalia was a child when the Barnetts left her.
