“Book Descriptions: The murder of ten year old Anthony Avalos shocked the USA in 2018. In early 2023, the trial of his mother, Heather Barron, and his stepfather, Kareem Leiva, uncovered the horrific details of Anthony’s final days. Both perpetrators were found guilty of first degree murder, with the special circumstance of torture. Like Gabriel Fernandez five years earlier, pleas for help by concerned family members and teachers were not responded to appropriately by the authorities. As we await the sentencing of Anthony’s murderers, this book tells the story of the bright and courageous little boy who was loved by everyone except those who abused and murdered him.
Whilst based on the facts, the first part of the story is told from Anthony's point of view, with the second part detailing the injuries, trial, etc, and searching for answers. How much more suffering can we allow before we all act together to prevent these deaths?
(Not suitable for children, nor those who find depictions of children's suffering deeply upsetting.)” DRIVE
