It’s, it’s a good sized home, it’s got a good sized backyard. Yeah, I mean, look at that they’re right on the road. I mean, screams can be heard so many things can be heard. They lived in a two story home, very near schools town like downtown. Yeah, so this happens to be the part that bothers me the most So they were located in historic Danville, Pennsylvania on South White Oak Street. Julia, do you want to walk us into where this took place? There was a plastic cut by his bed when he was found that held a mere inch of water. He died as a result of blunt force trauma to the head and body along with severe malnutrition. So to put this in perspective, the average weight and height for a 12 year old male is around 88 pounds and 58.7 inches tall, he was under underweight and under height. Um, 12 year olds, I mean, they should definitely weigh more than that. That’s just think about that for a second.
The medical examiner revealed that Maxwell was severely malnourished had very little muscle mass and was a mere 47 and a half pounds.

I mean, this whole little boy’s life was full of violence and sadness. And there were clear claw marks in the bedding from his struggle. So being found naked on his bed on the second floor of their house, Maxwell and the bed were completely covered in his feces. So on that note, this brings us to our second point, so the cause of death was a homicide, obviously. There are so many ways to describe this crime are the words that come to mind are neglect, torture, starvation, withholding water, physical abuse, and absolutely inhumane conditions. He only knew sadness, filth, hunger, and thirst. He was obviously robbed of love and affection or any human connection. Maxwell was robbed of an education was kept out of school. Reports indicate that Maxwell hadn’t seen a doctor in over 10 years. And the room was devoid of any toys or furniture, with exception to the bed. There were bolts and locks on his door to keep him inside. There were curtains inside, so covering anything nobody could see in nobody could see out. You could not see inside or outside the room, because the window in there was shattered, and nailed shut and the curtains. It was never allowed out was kept separate from the rest of his siblings. He was malnourished and starving and was held captive for years in a locked room. And they could lying in his own feces by authorities on May 26 of 2020. He was a 12 year old boy found weighing under 50 pounds, was dead. So today’s case, is in regards to Maxwell Shellenberger. Julia, do you want to bring us into what we’re talking about today?
