Summary

In March 2024, a call to emergency services led police to a quiet home in the West Midlands. Inside, they found a child in bed, wrapped in a duvet. At first, it looked like she was sleeping. But appearances can be tragically deceiving.

What followed was a case that would reveal shocking failures, devastating truths and a fight for justice led by someone who wasn’t bound by blood - but by love.

This is the story of Shay Kang - a bright, playful 10-year-old girl whose voice was silenced far too soon and whose memory now fuels a growing movement to change the law.
