LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. – Three-year-old Reygan Moon died from starvation in July. Weeks later, her mother Devin Moon was denied bond for murder charge in the toddler's death.
11Alive's Nick Sturdivant was inside the courtroom, and said Moon didn't show emotion and only shook her head when the state attorney suggested she get no bond.
Moon said other than calling her mom from jail, she has not had any contact with other family members.

Reygan died on July 24, 2018, weighing only 14 pounds, half of what her normal weight should have been.
Reygan's autopsy determined that her death was due to neglect and malnutrition. She had no food in her stomach. Investigators also found feces in her hair and bad hygiene overall.
DFCS admited there may have been "missed opportunities" to help Reygan before it was too late.
11Alive obtained the Georgia Division of Family and Children’s Services (DFCS) case file on Reygan, and DFCS admits in its own files that Reygan's case was not fully assessed, and follow-up visits were not done; less than a month before her third birthday, she was dead.
