Her biological father sexually abused her when she was just 19 months old. It affected her mental health, and she developed a disorder named RAD, abbreviated from Reactive Attachment Disorder. Beth’s psychopathic behavior was shown in the 1992 CBS film named ‘ Child of Rage.’
Childhood
Beth’s mother died when she was only one year old. Her biological father sexually abused her when she was only 19 months. No one can believe this. She has a brother named Jonathan and younger than she. Well, Beth and her brother were adopted by Tim Tannet and his wife named, Julie Tannet.
The couple did not know that the children had passed through several traumas. Therefore, after a short period, the nightmare started, and the adopted family was terrified by the girl’s behavior.
So they locked the six years old girl, Beth, a night because she roamed freely while they were sleeping. After that, she was admitted to the hospital by the family, and the doctor told her about a rare condition named Reactive Attachment Disorder.

While growing up, Beth always tried to hurt people, including her parents and younger brother. She killed four pets and also pressed a nest of baby birds to death.
Several times She tried to kill her brother. Once, she pushed him down and smashed his head against the cement floor. The adopted mother saved the boy after hearing his screams.
Inappropriate Sexual Behavior of Beth
The little girl was the victim of sexual abuse by her biological father, and therefore, she indulged in inappropriate sexual behavior towards her brother and other boys. She was pressing, hurting, kicking their private parts.
