Chicago trial attorney Marty Dolan joins the podcast to discuss the civil case he brought on behalf of the family of Gizzell Ford, an eight-year-old girl who was abused to death by her father and grandmother in 2013. Dolan breaks down how he built a negligence case not against the abusers — who faced criminal charges — but against the forensic pediatrician who examined Gizzell just three weeks before her death and failed to act on clear signs of abuse.

Through this conversation, listeners gain a deeper understanding of what mandatory reporting obligations actually require of physicians, and what parents can do when they sense something is wrong and the system isn't listening.

Little Rock attorneys Josh Gillispie and Joseph Gates join the podcast today to discuss one of the most catastrophic daycare abuse cases either has handled: an 8-month-old infant left permanently blind and brain damaged after being violently shaken at an unlicensed home daycare in Arkansas. Gillispie and Gates break down the medical evidence that exposed the daycare's shifting cover story, the criminal case that ended with no jail time, and the $110 million civil verdict the family won — and the hard reality of trying to collect it. Through this conversation, listeners gain a clearer understanding of how oversight gaps in unlicensed childcare can leave children vulnerable, and what parents can do to ask the right questions before trusting someone with their kids.
