Destination: Goa, India

If you’re sitting at a bar sucking a hashpipe in Goa, India… then you’ve committed to having zero responsibilities that day. But what about your 9 children? What are they doing while you get high, smoking hashish abroad? Mothers, this case will make you rage when I tell you about 15-year-old Scarlett Keeling, a UK teenager who was left to live with a 25-year-old local man while the rest of the family traveled.

On February 18, 2008, Scarlett’s body was discovered on the beach. Initially ruled as a drowning, a second autopsy revealed the grim truth: her death was a homicide. What really happened on that beach? What signs were missed, and how did this tragedy unfold in one of India’s most popular tourist destinations?
