Let me tell you something about Taylor Hayes. What happened? She is crazy. She is. Okay, just a crazy individual. Donkey, today for Monday, November 9th, goes to 36-year-old Caprice Williams of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Not just Caprice, but the everybody responsible for making sure children and foster care are supposed, you know, to be safe, okay? To all of y'all who failed 10-year-old Malaysia outfit, all of y'all getting this big key haul, okay? RIP to that young lady.

As a parent of young kids, man, there are just some things I don't even want to see.

There are some things I don't even want to hear. And a 10-year-old girl being killed by someone in the same system that is supposed to keep them safe just to serve my spirit on a different level, okay? Would you like to hear more of this disgusting news? Let's go to NBC Philadelphia for the report, please.

Outside Malaysia Allford's foster home on North Simpson Street, the memorial grows while information about what allegedly happened inside the house is coming out of the darkness.

Detectives interview two juvenile witnesses who are family members of Caprice Williams. According to the arrest report, one said Williams used a phone cord to hit Malaysia and threw her down the stairs. And both witnesses say on Saturday, October 24th, they saw Malaysia lying in a bed, and each of the three times they saw her, she never changed position with her arm behind her back. The report goes on to say the second witness said Williams would make Malaysia walk up and down the stairs wearing a heavy vest, and that Williams had once not allowed the decedent to eat for a week. The documents show Williams used the girl's phone to send text messages to herself. One said, Mommy, I know you are waiting for me to come home, but my family said they don't want me to be adopted, and I just wish we can all be together. Earlier this week, investigators say they obtained video showing a man dragging a large bag down the sidewalk and putting it into a parked vehicle which is driven away.

Investigators used that video to track down the man who they say told them in an interview, you want me to tell you and then my life is ruined. You have to give me some time because I'm not doing it tonight. That man later drove with investigators to where the body was found at this apartment complex in Lindewald, New Jersey. Nadine Bazar is an attorney with Klein Inspector. He is representing Malaysia's estate and also represented a family over a 2021 incident where Williams is accused of abusing a four-year-old foster child. According to the complaint, the Child Protective Services report described the child as malnourished with abrasions to her face.

I think that what we're going to do is we're going to dig down and we're going to find out what happened and how this situation of background checks got derailed or were ignored.

I want everybody listening to the sound of my voice to understand something. When the government removes a child from their home and places that child in somebody else's care, that's an enormous responsibility. Okay, you are telling that child and their family that this is a safer environment. Okay, that's just a safer environment. All right. So with that said, somebody needs to explain to me how 10-year-old Malaysia Alphard ended up dead in the trunk of a car in New Jersey. When you hear all of the abuse that she allegedly had to go through, none of that was discipline. That was just straight up torture. Okay, when I was young, my daddy beat me with an extension cord and made me take a bath afterwards, so the warm water would like hit the whelps. That's part of the reason I don't beat my kids now, don't believe in it, and I need grown people to stop confusing cruelty with discipline. Okay, discipline is supposed to teach a child something. Abuse teaches a child to fear the very people that they're supposed to trust. Okay, not only did Malaysia die from blunt force trauma, you just heard in the news report, this woman, Caprice, according to investigators, used Malaysia's phone to send messages making it appear that the child had gone to be with her biological family. Think about the level of deception involved in that. A little girl is dead, and instead of calling for help, authorities alleged the person responsible for protecting her was trying to create a story to explain why she was missing. And what makes this story even worse? Caprice Williams was reportedly an elementary school teacher. This is why everyone shouldn't be a teacher. A teacher is a very sacred position. It's an act of public service that deserves way more pay and way more respect, and you have to be fit to serve. And Caprice clearly was not okay, but we're not going to let the conversation stop with Caprice Williams. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's a whole village that failed Malaysia. According to NBC 10 Philadelphia, Williams previously had been identified in a civil lawsuit involving another foster child who suffered severe injuries while in her case. That child was hospitalized in 2021, and the lawsuit described injuries so serious that a doctor reportedly characterized the case as a near fatality. The foster home was reportedly closed following that incident. So that brings me to the question, I want everybody in Philadelphia's child welfare system to answer, how in the hell did another child end up in that home? Who approved it? Who reviewed her history? Who conducted the background checks? Who was responsible for monitoring that placement? And did anybody know about the previous allegations? If they didn't, why not? Okay, I'm not going to sit here and accuse individual caseworkers of wrongdoing without evidence, but somebody has to explain how a foster home reportedly closed following allegations of a near fatal child abuse situation. But they were apparently allowed to take in another child. Because if those reports are accurate, this isn't just a conversation about one woman's alleged cruelty. This is a conversation about whether the safeguards designed to protect vulnerable children actually work. And please don't give We The Public some generic statement about reviewing procedures and scripting and protocols. No, we need answers. Okay, we need to know who authorized the placement. We need to know whether the previous allegations were documented and accessible. We need to know whether proper inspections and follow ups occurred, and whether there were warning signs that somebody missed or ignored. Okay, if mistakes were made, identify them. If people were negligent, hold them accountable. If the system has holes in it, fix them before another child falls through those same holes. Okay, man, this story just makes you want to physically eff somebody up. Okay, Malaysia was 10 years old.
