At just two years old, Chevonne Rusch had endured a difficult upbringing. Throughout her short life, the little girl and her siblings were violently abused and neglected. Friends and neighbours repeatedly reported the abuse to the police and to authorities but no one acted. Then she was brutally murdered. It’s a tragic story, but our investigation shows that Chevonne’s death could’ve been prevented had authorities taken action. Instead, their inaction coincided with an escalation in the abuse and, in the end, a tragic loss of life. Carte Blanche investigates how the state, as custodians of vulnerable children, continues to fail them. Find more exclusive content on Carte Blanche: The Podcast: https://linktr.ee/carteblanchetv

On paper, the offer was good: two well-known property developers offered the elderly the opportunity to purchase a unit in one of the high-class estates.

Now, Carte Blanche returns to investigate the property developers accused of reneging on their promises to the elderly and their beneficiaries.
