In this heart-wrenching episode of The Steve Wilkos Show, a mother seeks answers as to how her six-month-old baby suffered from third-degree burns. With tears streaming down her face, she shares the trauma of finding her baby screaming in pain and covered in burns. The mother knows something isn't right and wants to get to the bottom of it. Steve Wilkos, a former Marine and security guard on The Jerry Springer Show, is known for his no-nonsense approach to uncovering the truth. He offers his support to the family and vows to help them find answers.

The episode starts with Steve talking to the mother, who is in tears, and listening to her story. She explains that she left her baby with a babysitter for just a few hours, and when she returned, she found her baby screaming in agony. The baby was covered in third-degree burns, and the babysitter had no explanation for what happened. The mother immediately took her baby to the hospital, where doctors had to perform surgery and skin grafts to save the baby's life.

Steve takes a moment to comfort the mother and assures her that he will do everything in his power to get to the truth. He believes that someone knows what happened, and he is determined to find out who. He asks the mother to introduce him to the people who were there that day, including the babysitter and others who were around.

One by one, Steve interviews the people who were present that day. He asks each of them to share their versions of events and what they saw. As Steve builds a picture of what happened that day, it becomes clear that there are discrepancies in each story. Some people are hesitant to talk, while others seem to be hiding something. With each interview, Steve is building a case and getting closer to the truth.

The mother is sitting in the audience, watching as Steve investigates. She is visibly upset and anxious to find out what really happened. Steve takes a moment to talk to her and reassure her that they are getting closer to the truth. This is when the babysitter comes forward and reveals what happened that day.

The babysitter tells Steve that she was trying to make a bottle for the baby and accidentally spilled hot water on the baby's face. She panicked and didn't know what to do. She didn't tell anyone what happened, and the burns were left untreated, leading to third-degree burns and the need for surgery.

The mother is in shock as she listens to the babysitter's admission. Steve turns to the audience and urges everyone to take child care seriously. He reminds them that accidents happen, but it's important to be honest and seek medical attention immediately.

In the end, the mother is relieved to have answers and grateful for Steve's help in uncovering the truth.
