In September 2016, Tammy Yoney and her family met a 22-year-old woman named Kiley White. The Yoneys, a hardworking family from Spraggs, Pennsylvania, were instantly touched by Kiley's heartbreaking story. This poor young woman was dying of cancer while trying to raise her 4-year-old daughter.
At the time, Tammy's 22-year-old daughter Morgan was also fighting for her life and desperately needed a double lung transplant. Knowing what it was like to struggle with a devastating illness, the Yoneys took Kiley under their wing and formed a strong bond with her and her daughter.

One day, Kiley gave the Yoney family a letter. She wanted to know if they would adopt her daughter when she inevitably passed away. They agreed. Tammy reworked her life plans to make room for one more child. Not only was she providing care and support for her own sick daughter Morgan, but now she was equally devoted to Kiley and her child.
"As a mother, you can’t help but to help someone in the situation because she told us she didn’t have anybody,” Tammy told CBS.
But then Tammy received a disturbing phone call about Kiley, and a twisted lie unraveled. However, it would take two years — and another family of victims — to resolve.
