Roan would often get mad if Oakley didn't eat fast enough, so he would beat her for it.
It got to the point that Oakley completely stopped eating around Roan because she was so afraid.
Madison said that she would stand up for Oakley, saying that she was just a two year old little girl and didn't understand what Roan was asking of her.
but anytime she did that, Roan would turn around and hit Madison.
Madison said that she confided in Roan's siblings about the abuse, which led to the siblings coming over and having big arguments with Roan, but nothing was ever actually done.
On the morning of February 9th, she and Roan woke up to Oakley crying because she was hungry.
In response, Roan threw Oakley into the floor, causing her to bang her head on the floor.
This caused her to have a bruise on her head and eye which Madison attempted to cover up with makeup.
After the makeup was applied, that was when Tennessee got up and started interacting with Oakley.
By that afternoon, Madison made Oakley some ramen noodles for lunch.
At the time, Tennessee left the house, and as he headed out, Oakley tried following him out, but he told her that he would be right back.
Don't worry.
That part is absolutely heartbreaking.
She was just trying to find someone she could rely on, and the one person who was kind to her was just some random roommate living in the home.
After Tennessee left, Oakley came back to the kitchen asking her mom if she could eat.
Madison told her daughter that she was still making lunch and asked her to go in the other room to wait.
She then walked into the living room where Rowan was watching TV.
Oakley dared to lay on the floor in front of the TV, so Roan freaked out.
He started yelling at her and told her to go play with the large bouncy ball.
Madison listened as Roan got angrier and angrier, continuously telling Oakley to bounce on her ball.
