The Natalia Grace Orphan Scandal: A Bizarre and Controversial Case.

The jury in the neglect case against Michael Barnett, the adoptive father of Natalia Grace, who was accused of abandoning her, called their verdict a "huge miscarriage of justice" after learning that many facts, including Natalia's age, were not allowed in the case. Barnett was cleared of all charges, but legal experts say he "dodged a bullet" and "got lucky" due to the limited information presented in court. The controversy surrounding Natalia's age, which was legally changed from six to 22, was not allowed to be part of the case. A new chapter of the story, "Natalia Speaks," is set to air later this summer.

Uncovering the Bizarre Mystery of Natalia Grace's Orphan Scandal in New Documentary.

A documentary on the ID Channel and streaming on Max has brought new information on Natalia Barnett's story to light. Natalia has diastrophic dysplasia, a genetic condition that leads to dwarfism. The Barnetts adopted her from Ukraine and left her alone in an apartment by herself and, later, in a Lafayette apartment before they left the country without her in 2013. The family claims on the first night of meeting Natalia, they found pubic hair on her body, something they believed shouldn’t be possible for a girl her age. Michael was acquitted of neglect charges last year.
