Publisher's Synopsis
Ka'Tara Gallagher was murdered on Halloween of 1999 at the age of 20 months in a horrific case of child abuse in Spokane, Washington. Her family knew nothing of the details of her death until 2012 when Carrie-Anne O'Driscoll, now a peace officer in Texas, obtained the case file from the Spokane Police Department. In this chilling account, O'Driscoll, relates the facts of the case through case reports, photos and statements in an effort to enlighten parents, care givers, teachers and law enforcement of the signs to watch for in the prevention of child abuse. Written with the full support of Ka'Tara's father, Dan Gallagher Jr., O'Driscoll relives all of the pain and tumult of the past in the hopes of preventing one more parent from enduring the loss that the Gallagher family experienced in 1999. A portion of proceeds will be donated through Amy and Ka'Tara's Legacy to various charities that assist with education and prevention of child abuse.
