Show Notes
In today’s true crime case, we examine the tragic, preventable death of Kora Lascoitz, a 23-year-old woman with severe autism who was left vulnerable and unable to defend herself against her mother's neglect and abuse. Initially, police were skeptical about foul play, but as contradictions in her mother's statements emerged, a darker reality unfolded—Kora's tragic death resulted from severe malnutrition and dehydration, exacerbated by her mother Amy's misguided priorities during the pandemic. Despite Kora's critical health decline, marked by drastic weight loss that saw her weigh only 70 lbs at the time of her death, Amy continued to justify her actions, prioritizing her daughter's calmness over essential nutrition. Ultimately, Amy was convicted of neglect and sentenced to 20 years, highlighting the severe vulnerabilities faced by disabled individuals and the dire consequences of familial abuse.
