GYPSY ROSE BLANCHARD
Manage episode 376083768 series 3468960
The case of Gypsy Rose Blanchard and her abusive mother, Dee Dee. Their story is very strange and sad. For her entire life, Gypsy received medical treatment for conditions she did not have. Dee Dee claimed her daughter had muscular dystrophy, leukemia, seizures, learning disabilities and more.
None of this is true. Dee Dee was the true sick one. She suffered from Munchausen syndrome by proxy, which is a is a mental illness and a form of child abuse. The caretaker of a child, most often a mother, either makes up fake symptoms or causes real symptoms to make it look like the child is sick.
In 2015, Gypsy organized her mothers murder so she could escape the abuse. In this episode we will discuss Gypsy and Dee Dee’s lives and what lead to Dee Dee’s murder.
