Vermont's foster care system and claims of child abuse
Police say 2-year old Dezirae Sheldon was murdered last week by her step-father, Dennis Duby. She died from blunt force trauma to the head. Duby pleaded not-guilty this afternoon to second degree murder. This was not the first case of abuse in Dezirae's short life. Her mother was convicted of breaking Dezirae's leg when she was 11-months old. She was in state custody after that assault -- but was returned to her mother and step-father -- and now she is dead.
