In 2022, 15-month-old Isabella Kuykendall attended the United States Navy’s Ford Island Child Development Center, a daycare at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, for three days. During those three days, Bella went from a happy, bubbly baby to alternately crying hysterically and becoming quiet and withdrawn. Then her parents noticed a distinctive pinching bruise on Bella’s thigh. An investigation turned up hours of CCTV footage from inside the daycare, showing three workers abusing the baby, including pinching, shoving, crushing, slapping, shaking, and smothering her.
Bella’s parents, JD and Kaitlin Kuykendall, assumed their baby’s abusers would immediately face consequences, but instead, officials seemed hell-bent on sweeping the incident under the rug. The daycare workers responsible remained working at the CDC for months. Only when Bella’s parents went public with her story were any charges pressed, and those were woefully inadequate.
In this episode, you’ll hear my conversation with Kaitlin Kuykendall about what Bella endured, how it continues to affect her to this day, and why Kaitlin and her husband went public with her story.
