When 17 year old Kathaleena Draper found out she was pregnant, she wasn’t sure what to do. She and the father were both young, and while he was supportive, her relationship with her mother was strained at the best of times. So when her Aunt Erin offered to care for her during the pregnancy, and adopt the baby once it was born, Kathleena thought she'd found a good solution As her pregnancy progressed, Kathaleena started having second thoughts about the adoption and wondered if she could raise the baby herself. She could get a part time job to support them, she thought she could make it work. When she raised this possibility with her aunt, Erin was enraged and told Kathaleena that she couldn’t stay there any longer and that she would take her home to her mother. Kathaleena never made it home and what transpired was described by a judge as the most brutal crime he had made a judgement on in his 14 years in the job.
