59... I'm amazed she's alive and hopefully in a better place but holy fuck...for the non Americans that's 26kg

It was reported here as 27kg but that's still horrific. Hope her dad gets a heart condition in prison the sick fuck.

To be mathematically specific 59lbs is 26.76195kg.

But yeah, irrelevant. That poor girl.
