Lawsuits emerge following the tragic death of Malinda Hoagland

The tragic story of Malinda Hoagland has sparked outrage across Pennsylvania. Her family has filed multiple lawsuits against various organizations linked to her gruesome death. The lawsuits allege that these organizations failed to act when there were clear signs of abuse and neglect, which could have potentially saved the 12-year-old girl.

Malinda, who died as a result of severe abuse at the hands of her father, Rendell Hoagland, and his girlfriend, Cindy Warren, weighed just 50 pounds at the time of her death. Prosecutors have charged the couple with numerous serious crimes, including premeditated murder.
