I watched this sad but compelling story .Jordan Turpin is clearly intelligent and creative ;Jordan has a unique accent definitely a Virginia influence. Her song writing and composing was like her only emotional outlet . I hope Jordan gets stink 'in RICH off the books she will write or has a ghost writer do it for her. Someone should make a movie titled "Lacey Swan". If I was a producer, I would be all over it. I would want Jordan Turpin to star in the film. I think she could do it too. She is a natural in front of a camera .She's amazing. Having never talked with anyone outside her family, knowing only a little language and almost nothing about the outside world, she graduated from high school in one year. And she still seems so sweet and innocent.
