- So sad.
Not taking this case seriously is a huge injustice to Anish and his Mom Sassi. The team at Strangeland does a super job of breaking down what we know. How is the way the police handled this acceptable. Thanks for telling the story and let’s keep pushing to get justice for this little boy.
