This case, often referred to as "The Girl in the Box," delves into the darkest corners of human depravity and explores the terrifying depths of control and manipulation. TRIGGER WARNING: This case contains extremely disturbing and graphic content and includes difficult discussions of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and rape.
