This week, Drewby and Yergy head across The Pond to Blackpool to discuss the case of Debbie Leitch, a young woman with Downs Syndrome living with her mother, Elaine Clarke, in a terrace house in the town South Shore district. Rather than take care of her daughter's needs, Elaine spent Debbie's benefits on item for herself. She allowed her to live in filth, covered in scabies, and waste away to a mere 52 pound before she finally passed from the neglect.
