A Utah father who was stranded on a mountainside with his three young children during a storm is now facing child torture and aggravated child abuse charges. The indictment reveals shocking evidence, including a video where his 8-year-old daughter asks, "Are we going to freeze to death, daddy?" Micah Smith, is accused of ignoring warnings, being ill-prepared, and abandoning his children before rescuers arrived.
