When investigative journalist Matt Birkbeck looked at the eyes of the little girl who sat next to her father in the picture above back in 2002, he immediately knew something was “terribly wrong”.
Birkbeck’s investigation into the bizarre case uncovered how the man in the picture was a fugitive and felon with multiple allegations levelled against him, and not at all someone who should have been responsible for the care of a child, per Collider.
Franklin Floyd flung his daughter, Sharon Marshall, into a nightmare life, waiting until she reached her teenage years to then use her to make money.
She was forced to work in the adult dancing industry and was made to change her name everywhere she went.
In Netflix’s latest true-crime documentary, director Skye Borgman asks the devastating question: where is she now?
Girl in the Picture is yet another unbelievable addition to Borgman’s repertoire, which includes Abducted in Plain Sight, which shocked the world in 2017 with the tale of a young woman fighting off a predator trying to take her from her family.
Russh calls it Borgman’s latest doccie “unlike anything else we’ve seen before”. Girl in the Picture is already out on Netflix, so get on it if you’re keen to discover where and who Sharon Marshall is.
