S04E03: THE MURDER OF DAVID ROMAN
Manage episode 346523252 series 2877184
David Roman was just 15-years-old when his parents decided to send him to a for-profit foster home in Barrie, Ontario after he began skipping school and experimenting with marijuana. His arrival at the Expanding Horizons foster home coincided with the arrival of another young teen boy with a history of violence and run-ins with the law, and it's not long until trouble arises.
Due to alleged negligence by the foster-care owners (including four teen boys being in the care of one inexperienced 24-year old with no training), a series of events take place that leads to the morning of February 19, 2019- a morning that no one inside the home will ever forget. The horror results in David Roman's murder which instigates an investigation into Expanding Horizons and the for-profit foster care system, with shocking results.
