Shauna Dee Taylor has moved around the country leaving a trail of court cases in California and Arizona where she lost custody of several children and was diagnosed with Munchausen Syndrome by proxy throughout the process.
She now faces similar charges in Duval County.
Munchausen syndrome by proxy, or factitious disorder, is a form of child abuse or neglect where a caregiver falsifies or induces a child’s illness leading to unnecessary and potentially harmful medical investigations or treatment, according to medical experts.
