The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez (TV Mini Series) A Shock to the System (2020) User Reviews

One of the most upsetting things I've watched.

[Sleepin_Dragon · 8/10 · 23 February 2021]

Gabriel Fernandez, an eight year old that had the most horrific little life.

I'm not sure I can watch the whole of this series, as the events, topic, and conversation, are some of the most upsetting things I have ever heard, what that little man went through simply doesn't seem imaginable.

This made me feel saddened, angry, and frustrated. Everyone involved in this poor little boy's life seems guilty, either of harm or ignorance.

I will try and watch one more, this upset me hugely. 8/10.

Great set up

A terrible subject, but a great set up episode for the documentary. The time line well established, the interviews were relevant, and the key characters and agencies laid out.
