Episode 4 - The Case of Gypsy Rose Blanchard
Psychology After Dark - Un pódcast de Dr. Jessica Micono and Dr. David Morelos
On June 14th, 2015, the body of 48 year-old Dee Dee Blancard was found in her home just outside of Springfield, Missouri. She had been stabbed repeatedly in the back as she slept. Police originally suspected that her murder was linked to the abduction of her disabled daughter, Gypsy Rose. As the case unraveled, a lifetime of deceit on the part of Gypsy Rose and her mother, Dee Dee, was uncovered. Drs. Jessica Micono and David Morelos discuss child medical abuse, otherwise known as Munchausen by Proxy, and why some parents feign the illness of their children.
