that was played on MSNBC last night.

They pixelated her face in the smuggled video.

Lawrence said that if you could see her eyes your heart would break.

I didn't see Lawrence so I don't know if it's the same child.

Avenatti got the video from a woman who was working where that little girl is. The woman broke all the rules. She talked to the little girl who’s name is Jessica, and filmed her answering. She also took photos of the other kids. The woman quit and went to Avenatti as a whistleblower. He is now her lawyer. Rachel said they blurred the eyes and faces of the children because they cannot give consent to have their faces showing.

Lawrence and Rachel discussed that they wished they could show the faces just in case a relative could recognize. But, of course they can’t.

But with lawyers like Avenatti I’m sure the photos will be used to get families back together.
