Whenever I read about these documentaries, I ask myself what the guys doing the documentary did about the case.

I hope they did get the woman the U$ 7.000.

Sadly, there are stories much like that, or worse, every single day. My SO works for the state child care agency here in Uruguay, now that's a thankless job if there is one. She gets to see the worst of human beings (child rape, uncaring mothers, a mother putting her 12 year old girl into prostitution), fortunately balanced by a little of the best too (kindhearted adoptive mothers for example, and lots of supportive people).




I've always wondered if they give them the money after shutting off the cameras, since it's such a small amount.

More likely, they shut off the cameras, thank the people, and then fly away, shaking their heads that such a tragedy could occur.
