Karly Sheehan was beaten to death, and the abuse had been happening for a long time prior to her actual demise. Karen Spears Zacharias had a front row view of the potential for harm as she had actually had Karly's mother living in her house at one time.

Zacharias turned over every rock to find the reason this tragedy had occurred. She talked with Sarah, the mother, and with the child's father, David. Sarah and David were divorced at the time of Karly's death and had had a contentious relationship since their parting.
