Topics
播音员详细讲述了朱迪思·巴尔西的悲惨一生，从她母亲的野心到父亲的长期虐待，以及相关机构的失职，最终导致了她的悲惨死亡。事件中，朱迪思的父亲长期酗酒并对妻子和女儿实施身体和精神虐待，多次威胁要杀死她们。朱迪思的母亲虽然意识到危险，却因为害怕报复而未能及时采取有效措施。儿童服务部门在接到举报后，草率地结案，没有进行充分的调查，错失了拯救朱迪思的机会。好莱坞的童星保护机制也存在缺陷，片场工作人员更关注拍摄进度，忽视了儿童演员的安全和心理健康。朱迪思的悲剧不仅是家庭暴力的结果，也是系统性失灵的体现。 朱迪思的叔叔在采访中回忆起他曾劝告朱迪思的母亲不要让她过早进入演艺圈，但他母亲不听劝。他表达了对这起悲剧的痛心和惋惜。 朱迪思的姐姐回忆了她童年时期目睹的家庭暴力，以及她对妹妹的思念和怀念。她相信妹妹现在在一个快乐的地方。 朱迪思的朋友们讲述了他们对朱迪思的印象，以及他们对朱迪思父亲的恐惧。 儿童服务部门主管为部门的失职辩解，认为即使有更好的资源，也无法阻止这起悲剧的发生。但他对部门人手不足和缺乏有效管理制度的事实避而不谈。
