A story about a 13 year old girl who died after being dropped off with no pulse at a hospital by an unidentified 40 something year old man in Lawrence has been making headlines, but something doesn’t smell right.
The family of a 13-year-old Amesbury girl who died after being dropped off at Lawrence General Hospital on Monday is demanding answers as authorities continue to investigate her death. Chloe Richard was pronounced dead after a man dropped her off at the hospital’s emergency room just before 5 p.m., law enforcement sources told 7’s Steve Cooper. She had gone into cardiac arrest. That man has since been located but no arrests have been made in connection with her death.
Richard ran away from her home on Sunday night but family members say her friends told them that she was doing OK. Richard’s stepfather, Brian Dolan, says his heart broke when he was called to the hospital to identify his stepdaughter.
“It had to be one of the hardest things that I had to do in my life,” Dolan said as he fought back tears. “I’m beside myself. This shouldn’t have happened. This kid was 13 years old.”
Richard’s death is being investigated by the Essex District Attorney’s Office, the Lawrence Police Department, and the Essex State Police Detective Unit. The cause and manner of her death have not been released. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner is performing an autopsy on Tuesday. The individual who dropped off the girl alerted hospital staff that she was in need of help before driving off, according to the DA’s office.
“If it was your kid, what would you do?” a frustrated Dolan asked. “If it was your mother, your daughter, your son, your brother, or any one of them. What would you do?”
“The only thing I was told earlier from another agency is … someone 47 years old dropped her off,” the distraught stepdad told the station. “Whoever did this to my little stepdaughter, trust me, I hope there’s hell to pay because they threw her out of the car like a bag of trash. If that was your kid, if that was your sister, if that was your brother, or your mother, or your father, what would you do? I’m beside myself.”
Chloe’s mother, Deborah Goldsmith-Dolan, told the paper that her daughter was at a friend’s house the day before. She called the friend, who said the girl was safe.
But by late Monday afternoon, she started to worry when she still hadn’t heard from her daughter — and filed a missing person’s report at the police station. Again, she was misled.
“I’m sitting at the police station, and one girl told me she is safe and someone dropped her off,” Goldsmith-Dolan said.
Tragic story obviously, but something doesn’t smell right here. The kid “ran away” from home on Sunday. Did Mom and Dad file a police report that night? Nope. If my 13 year old kid “runs away” then I get in my car and find her. If I don’t find her within an hour then I’m at the police station and they immediately put out a statement about a lost child.
There was school on Monday morning. What kind of parent goes to bed on a Sunday night knowing their daughter is not under their roof? What plans were made for her to go to school the next day? What provisions did she have? Your kid is supposed to be your life, and Mom and step-Dad were basically like, “she’ll be fine.” This is what we’re dealing with here:
Nuff said.
Someone who knew Chloe Ricard posted this on Facebook:
That led to this response:
“I just wish she had been saved when she was screaming for help but was put right back in the same situation. The system is messed up.”
Interesting. But even more telling was Mom’s ratchet response:
“She was at a friend’s house safe.”
Yea, real safe for sure.
“Keep your cunt mouth shut.”
“u poor white psycho bitch”
“fuck off you piece of shit heroin addict”
She sure sounds like a grieving mother.
Then there was this post from the woman who was told to shut her cunt mouth:
What appears to be the same woman with a different account then posted this underneath, accusing Mom of “doing” crack around Chloe, and blamed the step-Dad for being the guy who caused so many issues for Chloe. She also alleged that Chloe has gotten her stomach pumped, Mom pops pills, and Chloe was raised at her grandparent’s house.
Now I don’t know any of these women so I have no way to verify any of this. However, when Mom signed into her DEAD DAUGHTER’S FACEBOOK ACCOUNT and wrote this:
It became a lot clearer how this child could run away from home on a Sunday and was not be reported missing that night.
Just take a look at Chloe’s Facebook page and you’ll see how shitty these parents were really were.
This is her cover photo:
If my daughter posted a picture of some thirsty looking Chester, covered in tattooes while holding a freaking MAGNUM condom, she gets locked in her room until she turns 18. And if she runs away from home, I immediately assume she’s going to see whoever the hell that skud fuck is. She was dropped off dead at the hospital by a guy in her 40’s. And Mom and Dad have NO IDEA who this guy could possibly be? If this girl had real parents that actually cared about and loved her she’d be alive right now.
More people began posting, echoing the same things that were initially posted about Mom.
Another woman says that Chloe’s older brother Kyle lived with her for 5 years and raised him.
When Clarence asked her why she didn’t call the police on Sunday when her daughter ran away from home she told him to come to Amesbury to talk face to face, and claimed that she didn’t disappear Sunday night.
She then showed that showed that she was a guttermuppet caboose by telling Clarence to get his “FAX” straight.
And you know how we love it when people tell us to get our FAX straight. Here’s some FAX – Chloe ran way on Sunday according to every news outlet that has written about this:
Richard ran away from her home on Sunday night but family members say her friends told them that she was doing OK.
And despite her daughter previously getting her stomach pumped, hanging out with questionable people, and clearly having issues with substance abuse, they trusted that whoever she was with would make sure she got up and went to school the next morning. Awesome parenting.
I understand it hurts to lose a child, but this child is dead because Mom wasn’t there for her. But she sure is sharing that GoFundMe.
Meanwhile Dad is all over the news crying up a storm, and acting like a tough guy on Facebook.
Imagine your kid dies and you feel the need to go on Facebook and brag about how you’re gonna kick the guy’s ass who dropped her off dead at the hospital. Imagine how much of a trashbag you have to be to do something like that.
They didn’t report her missing until Monday afternoon. What was Dad doing in the morning?
Posting Bruins memes and muscle car posts. He seemed really concerned that his 13 year old daughter never made it home that night.
Then he did this:
That seems like a normal thing to post for a person who doesn’t have a past that was quickly being made public on social media.
The bottom line is that this story is a tragedy because this was a girl whose father died when she was 8. Mom chose new dick over the best interests of her child, who she then neglected and may or may not have done drugs around, and when her daughter ran away from home Mom did nothing to make sure she came back that night. Now that the girl is dead Mom and Dad are pretending to be loving and caring parents, but if they really cared they would’ve intervened a long, long time ago.

This story is heart breaking, and some of the comments are equally disturbing. It is tragic that this young child not only lost her life, but was forced to live a tortured life of abuse and neglect. She and her siblings never had a chance. I would hope to God the other children have been removed from this nightmare, and that swift and relentless justice finds the worthless examples of human beings, whom should never be referred to as parents.
I hope all the people commenting their first hand knowledge of the parents’ behavior step forward and speak directly to the police.
And wtf is a “ractchet”? Is that a Massa term???
You can do a word search on the urban dictionary. A ratchet is a ghetto hoe, bad mother, a drug addict. It’s a word that has multiple meanings but ultimately means, a shit bag of the highest quality 😉
I just want to say the guy in the picture with the teddy bear and a condom is a famous singer named “Lil Peep” who died years ago. So I mean that’s why the parents aren’t concerned with him….. personally I feel like you should’ve looked into this more before you decided to go ham on that part of the article
Everything that Noelle and the former person living in the complex statements are sadly true.
The step dad works maintenance to get rent reduced. He’s a drunk who’s hit both chloe and her brother. Hes happily screwing the neighbor in the next building, Jamie. And even chloe and nick knew it.
Chloes exact words to my child were “my mom never leaves her bed and is a pill head”. The allowed drinking in the home and drug use to continue. Both chloe and nick were nothing but a meal ticket. Had they not got money for their father duing from social security than mom would have had chloe permanantly gone with her family members.
Who on national tv or social media says “her best friend, the dcf worker”? And why in gods earth did dcf alert her mother instead of the mother knowing her childs where abouts?
I hope to god chloe haunts these two birds every waking and sleeping moment of their damn lives.
Dcf dropped the ball as did the Amesbury police. She atated many times that she didnt want to live there and that there was abuse and neglect. Doesnt take much paperwork for the dcf worker when placing with other family. Therefor she’s just as bad.
How could mom and step dad not cry? Instead they pretend to cry becayse its almost as if thats what the media wanted.
They both are disgusting pigs!!!
I honestly hope neglect comes out of this.
Would be nice if Nick and Kyle would honor their dead baby sister and speak up about what really went on in that home. They at least owe her that much, dont they?
And yes, I know the family. Hence how I know names and the fact that step dad is busy banging the neighbor instead of his benzo head dead lay wife! I also know they fought like hell to keep chloe there for social security checks becayse mom cant work. Lol or is it that she chooses not to?
Pop another pill Mommy while your doting husband watches the bruins game and bangs your bff in the other room. Its a shame chloe and her friends cant laugh at your misfortune any longer.
No normal child that loves their mom would tell all her/his friends of how Brian is cheating on you.. even Jamie and her mother know it. You fucking 2 bit fat ass clown!
Maybe you two should mourn the loss of a child that you indirectlu killed? Maybe shed 1 single tear?? I know if I lost my kids I’d want to go with them because it would be too much for me to carry.
But not you, right?! You and your hulk hogan wanna be hillbilly husband care too much about your damn selves.
Why blame a 47 year old man?? Arent you just as guily if not more?
Never filed a police report any of the times she ran away from you. No one stopped screaming at her or hitting her now did they?
Allowing her to do as she pleased. You might as well have purchased the drugs for her you sick bitches. I hope justice kicks you both in your teeth. And I hope everyone bands together to get you borh arraigned on charges.
they should be looking at daddy step finger
First thought when I seen the “Parents” talking on the news was that mom was off her rocker high on benzos, and that the “step dad” was probably not a very nice person to the little girl. He spoke of her like she was the neighbors kid and not how a step father would. His mannerisms showed that very much. Both were trying to cry, or at least pretending to, yet not a tear drop ever fell from anyone’s eyes. This is such a awful sad story. Sounds like Chole was a little girl who was lost and just wanted someone to care about her, but mom loved everything else more. A mother should NEVER chose a man over her children. Never. That child is your flesh and blood and grew inside your body, nothing or nobody should ever mean more or come before that child. Something tells me that there is going to be a lot more information to come on this. I pray Chole can Rest In Peace. And she gets the justice she deserves. At least she can be a child now in heaven. Xoxo
This whole thing is insane. Poor kid. Hopefully the whole story comes out.
Btw. Isn’t that picture of Lil Peep with the teddy bear and condom?
13 y/o’s shouldn’t be listening to that crap.
I thank TB for showing me the hidden sewers, but I can only take so much ratchet life.
Ugh. Yea the English language, do you know it? Its *mourn* the word you tried to use. Not morn. If your gunna talk about the English language like that, please use it correctly.
I worked with her she was one of my clients. She was one of the sweetest kids I’ve ever worked with. She never had a chance. The things this poor child had to face was horrifying. The things she said about her home life broke my heart. Outside of her screams for help she was a regular child, who loved to laugh, and do hair and make up with her peers. When she hugged you she put her entire soul into it. I’m grateful I had the opportunity to meet this young lady, she touched my heart. Rest In Pece our Sweet Chloe.
As the truth begins to unfold, the stories I was told are symbols of her cries for help.
This is heartbreaking and so infuriating.
Holy adipose, Batman, that there is an ample amount of angelic avoirdupois!
Now I’ve got the snark out of the way. Sometimes that’s the only way to deal with sad news like that, or to quell the anger at uncaring parents. SHEESH!
The fathers friend posted a go fund me page to raise money to send the parents to game one of the Stanley Cup!! These people are so sick!! They need to go to jail!
Just another sad story of welfare gone wrong. ALL entitlements unless severely disabled and I mean severe, not woaa is mee my anxietyyyy, should last a year maybe 2 tops. Fucking lazy, good for target practice slobs. Amesbury like many places in MA used to be solid across the board until 40b requirements. Wait. Is this defamation of a class of people?
I strike the record! Love everyone, regardless of social status. Entitlements are a constitutional right!
Tragic.
I’m noelle… my intentions where never to blast her… but when she attacked me for saying her kid deserved better, that’s when I couldn’t help my self but to say what a terrible mother and all around human being this women is. Chloe deserved to continue a great life at her grandparents … but like this post says … mother had other plans… sleeping around with men her hole life …I actually met 2 boyfriends before this “husband” she has now… and I didnt even add that she had sex with the at that time he was a boyfriend… with chloe in the room!!! at only 10 years old!!! she was completely messed up by that…. when she told me and her brother she could barely speek…
She was crying and didnt know what to do… She shouldn’t have attacked me and this wouldn’t have blown up like this…. but chloe deserved justice for what’s happened to her… and for the ones who got that twisted thought when realizing there fake cry’s are really bad( she actually called me to bitch me out … not once sounded at all upset… more made with me for saying she deserved better… and the hole time I kept saying how she was sad and she should have picked her kid over her husband .. never did I say anything but trying to say she deserved better and to be loved, maybe cooked dinner?) ….. it makes me sick to think that maybe they did this!! There all about the money!! When there second son (17 at the time) drove one of their cars from the apt door to a parking spot. Accidentally hit the other vehicle … so instead if fixing the tiny dent on their vehicles… they filed a insurance clame!!! And toon a strike on the mothers insurance!! all about the money …. I can’t believe i didnt already think of that… not to mention they had too much “stress” from chloe… I hope they get caught for this .. so sad 🙁
REST IN PARADISE SWEET CHLOE MAY<3
(a) You sound like you might know the whole story. If you want justice for her, spill it.
(b) No disrespect, but goddamn, you are murdering the English language. Invest some time in learning how to write properly.
Before anybody posts anything could you please reread it. There are so many things wrong with these posts such as run on sentences, improper grammar and so on. Punctuation would also be a great idea!!!!! The level of this writing has to be what…. 3 Rd grade
Wow some friend you turned out to be.
Where were you in her time of need? You should have reported how fucked up her parents were to the police or maybe the two of you could have ran away to the Circus or something?
Noelle, this whole story is very sad and tragic. I wish she could have been saved. It sounds like you really cared about her and I can’t imagine what you must feel. Chole is gone and she needs someone to be her voice. I know there is probably so much more to this story but the bottom line is a child is gone. What kind of mother thinks it’s okay that her daughter isn’t home on school night? The kind who smokes crack and does not give a shit. At least that’s my opinion. From what I have read and seen on the news this Little girl didn’t stand a chance. She deserves Justice, people need to know what kind of “parents” she had, and even all the awful things she had to suffer, maybe it will save another child. I’m so sorry and may she Rest In Peace
Please delete this and re-write it in English. It’s no wonder that you moron beach bums from Amesbury, Salisbury, etc. live horrible lives. You’re all chromosome deficient fucktards. Go fuck yourself for writing so terribly.
If every parent took their role seriously, this world would be a far better place.
The mother looks absolutely fabulous and fit in her wedding gown. Her new husband is a grown man with a mortgage and a job. I wonder if he works for cumberland farms/gulf or the town of ?
I used to live at that apartment complex and I can confidently say that everything that is being said about the mother and stepdad is accurate. Stepdad is the maintenance man for the complex. The level of ratchness never ceased to amaze me.
They kicked the older brother out of the apartment yesterday or today. They are the scum of the earth. That little girl deserved better. DCF was involved recently too. Sad.
I called this when seeing the Mom on TV.
Her crocodile tears were so fake.
It will all come out.
^^this cannot possibly be Randall. What one little IP address threat and you’re all proper and stuff?!
I don’t think so sir. Who are you, and what have you done with the bad man Randall?? Tell me or you IP address will!!
I’m seeing all these I/P addresses flying about.
Feels like the Dan Patrick show where viewers/listeners called (maybe still do) with a
“I’m Z, 6 ft 230 lbs”. Gotta work on that 230.
Originally the go fund me was set up to send the step dad to the Bruins play off game!! Since that’s what Chloe would’ve wanted. Once he was called out for it the man claimed it was for the family, and they could do why they wanted with the money. Mysteriously, it now says for funeral expenses. People re seriously fucked up in this world! Parents should be charged with neglect..
I just want to clarify, there were 2 GoFundMe pages. The original, the screenshot in this article, was set up and is managed by chloe’s (perfectly well adjusted and intentioned) aunt and uncle. I cant speak to the other because I cant even find it now.
Sorry for painting with a broad brush, but I would be very, very skeptical of the parenting skills of parents who’d let a 13 year old who is NOT from Lawrence hang out with anyone from Lawrence. Especially if that 13 year old had emotional issues and was trying desperately to appear 18 and not 13.
Lawrence is a third world country…
Lawrence isnt even good enough to be considered 3rd world
Notice a theme?
This story far from over. Like the majority opinion here, agree the parent’s story seems off and their behavior pre and post seems defensive. Stay tuned. RIP Chloe
So the family can’t tell the police the name(s) of the friends whop assured them that their kid was “safe”? And why did another news outlet report that Choe’s *DCF caseworker* felt that the deceased was at risk of running away to Virginia?
Something tells me that Mom and Stepdad know exactly what happened and that they didn’t act out of the ordinary because they knew exactly where their kid was on Sunday night.
I’ll even go out on a limb and give 50/50 odds that it was the stepfather who dropped the kid off at the ER, and that he knew full well that the kid was already dead.
As soon as I saw the story I knew there was more to it Thank god for Turtleboy I would expect the local media to do any actual journalism any more Poor id she never had a chance in life I certainly hope some adults are held criminally responsible for her death I wont hold my breath know what a corrupt criminal justice system we have her in Massoftwoshits where our top law enforcement agent hold it Healey is only interested in filing frivolous lawsuits against the president
Big bitch was very neglectful it seems.
The parents are clearly massive cunts.
Poor kid.
My lottery numbers are 12.28.19.24
Hey Dick, what’s going on across the pond? Is Tommy Robinson going to win MEP today or what? Keep us (or me) posted, please and thank you.
I’m rooting for him because a vote for him a “Fuck You” to the system.
I’m also rooting for Carl Benjamin (Sargon of Annad).
I’m rooting for them because I’m sick and tired of all this liberal nonsense.
PC culture is degrading society.
Plus, they are both big proponents of free speech.
Well Y,
Tommy Robinson (real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon) changed his name to sound more like a working class Brit, than a pompous arsehead.
He’s an extreme right-winger and was previously in the fascist British National Party.
Several google trophies for violence and others for mortgage fraud and contempt of court.
He’s a particular nasty and vile cunt who practices genuine hate politics. However, in the current climate of Brexit he has found support from the right who have lost faith with the mainstream parties and may get elected to the European Parliament.
The extreme irony being that he wants out of Europe and a “hard Brexit”, yet there he is becoming part of the Euro gravy-train.
In other words, the guy is a complete cunt.
Appreciate the response, Dick.
Disregard everything after the 0:40 mark (or don’t):
I go apeshit when it takes me 10 minutes to find my car keys. I guess misplacing a kid falls somewhere south of that.
From the looks of Chloes’ crew and photos, she was destined to be a future blog post by the time was 18 anyways.
We dump on them here once they are adults. Want to bet most of them were all “Chloes” at 13? She was a ratchet in training. They just don’t turn into fucking zombies at 18. They are living the life long before that.
All this sympathy for her at 13, yet when they are 18 they are considered shit, but the shit was baked in at 13 is crap. So sad, too bad, move on.
Dude in the Photo with the MGNUM rubber goes by the name Lil Bo Peep. I found this because she is one of the few people she liked on her FB page. Real hard to figure out. (Not really)
He looks like a real nice guy too. Salt of the earth.
Please don’t report me, even if he sue’s you for deformation. Because I’m helping you out here.
Right? We’re friends?
I have been following this on the news since it happened. In the very first interviews I saw with the dad in the mom had me turning to my wife and saying this is not right, something stinks here. I can tell just by listening to the mom that there’s a lot more to the story than what’s being told how sad that this had to happen. All this girl needed was some attention and some responsible parenting. Instead she ended up with two shitstain losers.
The fat idiot woman said something cryptic about the state on TV, so maybe DCF was already doing something because these people are criminals from Amesbury of all places. The highest number of murderers per capita on the fucking planet.
Give the poor girl a break! Her writing is not that bad. A few spelling errors & run on sentences, but definitely not 3rd grade. Plus she gets bonus points for the proper usage of “to” & “too”.
Hopefully with the proliferation of cameras in the area they will be able to solve this. Seems like a lot of people failed this young girl and they will have to live with it. To those who truly cared I’m sorry for your loss and hopefully she is at peace.
whoever down voted this go fuck your mom in the ass you fucking loser
All the animals come out at night – whores, skunk pussies, buggers, queens, fairies, dopers, junkies, sick, venal. Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets.
All bullshit aside, I feel for those who truly loved and cared about this young lady. I hope that the authorities get to the bottom of this soon.
It appears that there were very few people who loved and cared for this poor little girl.
Awful fucking parents. Should be shamed in the town square and summarily shot in the face.
unfortunately there were people who cared very deeply for her, were the support system she needed, and made every attempt to intervene but sometimes your hands are tied no matter what. parents have rights to their kids until they dont.
There are no winners here SSTG and the “parents” look like they would hire Richard N Vulva to sue you in a heartbeat. Let this one go SSTG. Rip young girl. Sometimes I wish we could solve all the problems in the world in a blog but do you need another lawsuit? My ip is 78.23.45.190
