Newmaker, Candace, 1990?-2000

Candace Elizabeth Newmaker (born Candace Tiara Elmore; November 19, 1989 – April 19, 2000) was a child who was killed during a 70-minute attachment therapy session performed by four unlicensed therapists, purported to treat reactive attachment disorder. The treatment, during which Newmaker was suffocated, included a rebirthing script. She was wrapped in flannel to represent a womb and told to free herself while four adults used their hands and feet to push down on Candace's small body, making it impossible for her to move or breathe. This resulted in Candace's death.
