The secret case of Genie Wiley, the wild child. TLC Documentary

Officials in the Los Angeles suburb
of Arcadia

have taken custody of a 13 year old girl,

who they say, was kept in such isolation
by her parents,

that she never even learned to talk.

The girl still wore diapers,

and was uttering infantile noises,

when a social worker discovered the case

two weeks ago.

The authorities are hoping

she still may have a normal
learning capacity.

Among the first to see the child

was Temple City detective,

Sergeant Frank Linley.
