Summary

Child protective agencies that allegedly ignored horrific abuse that led to the death of young Adrian Jones and the feeding of his corpse to pigs are being sued by the boy's maternal grandmother. Kansas City reporter Jessica McMaster and child protection advocate Ashley Willcott join Nancy Grace in this episode to look at the latest in this shocking story. Adrian was 7 when he died while confined to a shower stall in his Kansas City in 2015, before his father, Michael Jones, fed his remains to pigs in order to conceal the death. His father and stepmother Stephanie Jones were both convicted of Adrian’s murder this year.
