Significant/shocking case update available now!
If you're a longtime listener/viewer of Crime Beat, you're likely familiar with the story of Meika Jordan.
The six-year-old girl was rushed to the hospital after her father and stepmother said she had fallen down the stairs.
But Meika's injuries didn’t match that explanation.
Her hair was matted with clumps missing, her tiny body was covered with bruises, a third-degree burn covered the palm of her hand, and she had severe abdominal injuries.
The little girl died in hospital - sparking a lengthy police investigation that uncovered incomprehensible details of violent abuse.
The story of “The Broken Princess” is the first I ever shared on Crime Beat.
Now, join me for the shocking new developments, less than ten years after the court case ended in "Fighting for Meika Jordan," available now on Amazon Music:
