Anna Newlin, who once lived with the Mans family, defends the Mans family on camera, but then suggests to producers of the show that Natalia was struck with a belt and kicked down a flight of stairs by the Manses. "There's some things that can land [Cynthia] and Antwon in jail for a long time," she says in a voiceover.

The third season of the ID channel docuseries brings to light allegations of financial and physical abuse against Natalia’s new adoptive parents, Antwon and Cynthia Mans; THR reached out to the Indiana Police Department about the allegations.

In the final episodes of the ID series, Natalia's continued communication with her prior adoptive family wreaks havoc on the DePaul household as they try to help her understand how she's been exploited.
