She Said Her 2-Year-Old Choked; Doctors Found 40 Separate Injuries | Jeanie Ditty
When two-year-old Macy Grace Ditty was rushed to a North Carolina hospital, her mother said she had gotten sick, choked, and stopped breathing.
But the doctors looking at Macy immediately knew something about that explanation didn’t fit.
Then, while investigators were still trying to determine what happened during Macy’s final days, a series of emotional memorial photographs went viral online, images created for what the photographer believed was a grieving mother.
Years later, those same photographs would look very different.
This is the case of Macy Grace Ditty, a decade-long fight for answers, two trials, and the question of what really happened during the nine days after Macy returned to her mother’s care.
