Miss Bella, the social worker in the cases does not like her job. She is in fact working two jobs on DCF’s time and has not visited the child for a full year-and-a-half. Naiim her friend is very concerned. He thinks something bad may happen anytime and Bella does not know about it. Bella makes fun of him. “Is somebody going to steal the child?”
Baby X is the daughter of a drug addicted, prostitute, and often homeless young mother by the name of Delaiyan. Her father is a career criminal who spends most of his time behind bars. Baby X was picked up from the hospital at birth by child welfare because the parental rights of her parents were already removed in the case of her older sister Baby D. The little girl was eventually placed into the care of Miss Bunnybun, a fraudster who befriended Delaiyan at a social welfare program for drug addicted mothers. Their scheme failed apart when the foster grandmother invited the mother to join her lesbian activities. Delaiyan walked away to never check back on the child.
With Bella the social worker not visiting and the mother’s abandonment, the foster grandmother has the child for herself. A pattern of abuse and neglect develops, where the little girl is continually beating, scolded, isolated, put in dark places, in a leash, and a dog’s cage. Miss Bunnybun’s partner, Miss Jonesey her lover who holds the legal custody, is aware of the abuse but does nothing to stop it. Then one day in court, the judge wants answers. Bella is not even there to respond. The judge is furious. When a guardian arrives at the foster home to investigate, she is told that the child had been gone for a year-and-a-half.
Where is Baby X? An overzealous detective, Sgt. Kanton is on the pursuit. He swears to turn over every rock to find the little girl.
