"Revealing Natalia Grace's Truth: DNA Tests and Shocking Revelations Unfold"

Kristine Barnett, the former adoptive mother of Natalia Grace, has publicly refuted abuse claims made by Grace in the new ID docuseries "The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks." Barnett insists that no physical abuse occurred and describes Grace as a sociopath who manipulates people. The controversy stems from the Barnetts' belief that Grace, adopted as a child with dwarfism, was actually an adult posing as a child. Legal actions were taken to change Grace's age and eventually led to neglect charges against the Barnetts, which have since been dismissed. The docuseries also reveals a DNA test suggesting Grace was a child at the time of her adoption.
