Aaliya Goodwins Death & Why (podcast)

Five month old Aaliya Goodwins died of positional asphyxia.

A 5-month-old should never die because the adults in the room chose drugs over supervision. In this KARA podcast, we tell the story of an infant who suffocated in a dangerous position while her parents were impaired and absent. Her death wasn’t a tragic mystery; it was a predictable result of neglect, addiction, and a child protection system that gave unsafe adults chance after chance. Listen in as we unpack how positional asphyxia happens, why drug use and “chronic neglect” policies are a deadly mix for babies, and what must change so no infant is left to die alone again.
