· 172 words

It was the morning of August 17, 2017, in Farmington Hills, Michigan. The sun was barely up when 14-year-old Aya Altantawi called 911. The police responded to the scene quickly. There, at the house, was Aya’s mother, Nada, lying face up on the patio in her pajamas. She wasn’t moving. Above her, an open window. Did she jump? Did she fall? One thing was certain: Aya’s childhood had ended that morning. The years that followed would be filled with questions, hard choices, and anger. And the answers to those questions were darker than Aya could have ever imagined. To find out what happened, watch the full episode “The Shadow in the Window” on Peacock now. You can also watch on the NBC app or listen to it on our podcast. After you’ve finished the episode, watch Nada’s family and friends reflect on her life. You can also listen to this week’s episode of Talking Dateline with Andrea Canning and Keith Morrison in which they take you behind the scenes of the episode.
