Summary
It started in 1998, when TV reporter Jodi Brooks covered a heartbreaking case: a teenage mother was sent to prison after hiding her pregnancy and then drowning her newborn in a toilet.
For Jodi, the story didn’t end with the broadcast. It became a mission to prevent tragedies like that from happening again. She helped spark a movement that led to “Safe Haven” laws—giving desperate parents a last-resort option to surrender a newborn safely at places like hospitals or fire stations, anonymously and without interrogation.
